On the 9th of August, 2017, the truth was mistakenly laid to bare by one of the perpetrators of evil in Nigeria by name Nasir El-Rufai, the incumbent governor of Kaduna state.
It happened on Saturday in Ibadan at the 2017 Town Hall Meeting/Founders' Day Celebration in memory of an economist Professor Ojetunji Aboyade. El-Rufai who was the special guest of honour at the event, prayed to Allah, with his mouth abashed, for the natural oil resources in Biafra land to dry up.
In his words: ‘‘Because Nigeria gets easy money from oil, the nation has lost its thinking initiative on how to develop other sources of revenue and diversify the economy. I pray that the oil wells and the free money accruing from there, dry up so that the government and the people can get serious about making the country realize its full potential.’’
But are there no other ways of solving Nigeria's problems except praying for a people’s treasure such as the oil to dry up? This is ridiculous indeed.
It beats my imagination that the North has this frame of mind of making Nigeria better at the detriment of the Biafrans. Why must the Biafrans be on the losing end each time the so-called Nigerian think-tank comes up with their devilish advice and ideas to cure their ills? Why doesn’t El-Rufai pray for famine and destruction to besiege the so-called farmlands in the North? If this oil was discovered in the north, El-Rufai would not have in any way or in any circumstance, pray or wish for such a treasure in their land to dry up. It is now obvious that the shadow of envy for the Biafran people has beclouded the hearts and minds of northerners and has also eclipsed their sense of reasoning.
Biafrans are not bewildered at El-Rufai’s prayer neither will they question the source of such obvious hatred against them. History will always be there to exonerate the words of the good minds like Mazi Nnamdi Kanu whenever the need arises because the world revolves.
Events in the past will make us know that this unremitting hatred and envy from the north over Biafrans is inherent in their race and not something that can stop before one could say, Jack Robinson. For example, on 21st of December, 1967, when Biafrans were being massacred, the world gave order for that to stop, but the northerners (Nigerian government) ignored the order from the world and continued on the evil and wanton extermination of Biafrans.
Dr. Conor Cruise O’Bien a reporter on New York Review, reported: ‘‘myself and the same UNICEF representatives went on to convey something of what lay behind this intransigence. Among the large majority hailing from that tribe (the north) who are the most vocals in citing the complete extermination of the Igbos. I often heard remarks that all Nigeria’s ills will be cured once the Igbos have been exterminated from the human map.’’ The question now is, will all Nigeria’s ills be cured once the Biafran oil dries up? Is that the right prayer or wish to make to an evil god?
Apart from that, it should be noted that the recent calls for restructuring today in Nigeria was made possible at the detriment of the blood of Biafra agitators killed. If not for Indigenous People of Biafra through their leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu that gave voice to the timid elites and citizens of Nigeria out of their resoluteness and the spilling of their blood, there wouldn’t have been calls for restructuring today. No doubt, Biafrans have become the sacrificial lamb In Nigeria that is also why the Nigerian soldiers kill them at will.
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu the leader of the Biafran people has been accused of hate speeches. One of the hate speeches which all felt is the truth that the Biafrans are the breathe the Nigerian government breaths due to the over dependence of Nigerian on their oil resources as a source of resuscitating their epileptic economy.
For that reason, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was arrested, incarcerated and given all manner of inhumane and degrading treatments for standing in for the truth which El-Rufai has recently professed on 9th of August, 2017.
In conclusion, El-Rufai’s wish is in his people’s hand to grant. Since he desires for the Biafran oil to dry up, let them simply allow Biafrans to go with their oil peacefully. Let him stop making a wrong prayer to a false god which will yield no positive result. Failure to heed to this wise warning will be disastrous because that oil that has kept them glittering over the years will also see to their end. Biafrans are not begging anyone to subject their agitation to a referendum or declaring their freedom. This is because a yam that will burn will burn whether boiled or roasted.
