Joe Igbokwe, The Longest Serving Lagos Slave-charles Ogbu by Rizstar: 11:10am On Aug 04, 2017 |
By Charles Ogbu. Reading Joe Igbokwe's tales of his personal wars and woes, I was left wondering whether to simply pause and die laughing or die crying. In his bid to prove to Maazi Nnamdi Kanu that he is not a slave, he ended up writing the story of his long years of slavery to the Tinubu dynasty. How poetically ironic!! He was called a hungry Lagos slave and he responded by listing his long years of "serving" Tinubu for 8 years, Fashola for 8 years and Ambode for 2 years and still counting. And how he got married and had all his kids in Lagos after abject poverty left him traumatized for years. In all his sordid tales, he didn't mention anyway his Lagos sojourn benefited his Nnewi hometown. He made mention of no tangible record of achievement. All he regaled us with was his long years of serving Tinubu and Sons Nigeria limited. Should we now crown him the longest serving Lagos servant?? All the people with whom he served Tinubu are now Masters, yet, Igbokwe is still serving. And he already recruited his innocent children into a life of eternal servitude. #shame! When a real Igbo man serves a master, he get settled at the end of the agreed term. We Igbos don't serve in perpetuity. When will servant Igbokwe get settled by his Masters ![]() ![]() Indeed, slavery is more psychological than physical. It is a thing of the mind. Once a man's mind is captured and his thought process enslaved, forget it, such a man is no longer an ordinary slave. He is now the biggest asset the slave master has. To him, his chain is now a beautiful bracelet. For a piece of cake, he will remain eternally grateful to his master even when it was him who designed the recipe for the damn cake and got all it takes to bake the cake himself and feed the multitude. And like a typical "House Negro", Igbokwe felt he was under some kind of spiritual compulsion not to sing songs of praises for Lagos without singing songs of contempt and disdain for Nnewi, his own home. The Lagos chief servant never bothered to ask why Lagos seaport has remained the only functional seaport in the country. Why is Onitsha port or any other port in the old Eastern region not working ![]() The entire production process in the East has been emasculated by satanic federal govt policies aimed at keeping the people of the old Eastern region in perpetual state of poverty. Those Igbos who stayed behind to develop Ala-Igbo and have succeeded in carving a niche for themselves despite these business-crippling policies are the real heroes. For Igbokwe, the current privileged position his slave masters have gifted him with is all that matters. The generality of Ndigbo can go to hell. Make no mistakes, there are a million and one Joe Igbokwes who have succeded in fraudulently acquiring the garbs of Igbo patriots. To them, Nnamdi Kanu's Biafra agitation is unacceptable, not because they believe Nigeria is a better alternative but because they fear that the current agitation will deprive them of the privileges they currently enjoy in Nigeria. Whenever you hear any Igbo man attack (not criticize) Kanu and the Biafra agitation even without condemning the long years of institutionalised injustices and other criminalities of the Caliphate-controlled Nigeria state against Ndigbo, which provoked and has continued to not only fuel but legitimize the agitation, just know that that is another Joe Igbokwe talking. Waste not your valuable time engaging such a person. He's not deserving of even your silence. Look them in the eye and say to them, Nnamdi Kanu is fighting for his freedom and that of his people, what are you fighting for?? What alternative are you offering ![]() No man, no matter how powerful, can make a private bargain with history. 10 Likes 3 Shares |

I read the piece by Joe igbokwe and realised that foolishness still lives in him @ his age. A man who chooses to write his long years of serving the tinubu dynasty really isn't ashamed of himself. I thought by now he would be the world richest man considering his long years of servitude, alas, he still serves tinubu with notin to show for it. What an idiot. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Isoko1stSon: This guy is not an Isoko person. He is an IPOB youth from the East impersonating the good people of Isoko ethnic nationality. Everyone should take note. No Isoko person would create a username such as his. It's so sad that he is misrepresenting the collective wishes of Isoko people here on Nairaland. Disregard his posts. Things are like this are why minorities will always mistrust Igbos and their Biafra. Imagine the level of desperation and audacity. |

[s] Rizstar:[/s] You are crying over and blaming a public official in Lagos state for you misery and predicament in your village when in fact your worthless village governors, elected federal officials and appointed federal ministers and leaders are actually responsible for your problems, they are the jokers you sent to Abuja to look after your interests and make sure you get your share. It is not the job of a public official in Lagos state to give you federal presence, that's the job of your federal senators, reps and agency directors and your governors. Den don't take hate and bitterness swear for you Igbos ... 1 Like |
