The fall of Wike

At this very moment in time, the buzz of discussions going on in Biafraland is centered on what many call “The Fall of Nyesom Wike”, the Governor of Rivers State. This is because he touched many nerves recently when he took to the media to claim that he had banned Biafrans from their own land.

Rivers State is in Biafra, and Biafra is the piece of land which Nigeria has effectively occupied since 1970 by force of arms. Wike is Igbo and a Biafran, but one of the quislings Nigeria is currently using to effectively occupy the land. Up till this very morning, he has given the army and the police free reign to abduct and brutalize Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), especially those in the Obigbo area of the state.

What is the sin of Biafrans, his people? They have been stoically resisting every attempt by the Fulani people to drive them out of their land and take it over. The Fulani are not Nigerians. In fact, they are scattered all over west and central Africa because they are nomadic cattle rearers. Unlike the Massai, another African cattle-rearing group, they are abrasive and anti-social, anti-people, with land-grabbing instinct. Once in the mist of others, they always exhibit a murderous intent to drive them out and possess their land. 

Other Africans know this, and as a result do not allow them settlement in their territory. It is only in Nigeria that they have not been so treated since about the last 120 years that they set foot in Northern Nigeria. Since 2015, their mad instinct has taken a turn for the worst. In fact, late Muhammadu Buhari gathered them (illegal aliens) from all over west and central Africa for a land-grabbing expedition in Southern Nigeria. For this reason, they have been perpetrating all manners of crime – destroying towns and cities, pillaging the neighbourhoods, killing people and raping women. In Southern Kaduna and middle-belt, they have driven out many communities, renamed their land and taken it over. Now, feeling very confident, they are opening up Biafra land for such attacks and occupation.

In Rivers State, they have upped their activities in the last four years. In spite of all their atrocities, Wike has not challenged them for once because they promised to make him their Vice-Presidential candidate. As a result of this, the Rivers Governor is being seen a foolish self-hating, self-loathing and self-destructive individual who does not know what he is getting himself into. 

How did the recent trouble start? It started with the #Endsars protests in Port Harcourt. They were attacking the protesters everywhere, and eventually they killed two in Obigbo. Biafrans fought back and routed them. Later in the night they sneaked into the neighbourhood, escorted by the army and the police to do what they know best – kill men, rape women, torch their houses, in an attempt to drive them away so that they can come and settle.

But Wike took sides with the alien invaders against his own people. He quickly went to the media to berate his own people, claiming to have banned them from Rivers State. 

Describing it as an abomination, Biafrans have promised Wike to watch out because what happened to past saboteurs will also happen to him. This is why they insist that he has fallen.

Biafra: No Amount of Sabotage Can Stop 30th of May Sit-at-home

IPOB PRESS RELEASE 

10/05/2019  | The Biafra Times 

It is very astonishing and disappointing that at this critical point in the liberation of our people from the British bondage called Nigeria that some unscrupulous and shameless scavengers have volunteered themselves and their useless groups as willing tools of the enemy in their foolish attempt to subvert the will of Biafran people regarding the May 30 sit-at-home order by IPOB High Command.

These Abuja-sponsored shameless scavengers driven by envy, jealousy and crass egocentric interests to the point of coming openly and publicly to disregard all efforts and sufferings of our fathers and class of Biafra soldiers who sacrificed their lives between 1967 and 1970, are hereby warned to put their usual treachery in check because they will have themselves to blame at the appointed time when the anger of the people against them can no longer be controlled.

We are putting these saboteurs and enemies of Biafra on notice that no amount of Abuja sponsored propaganda or evil campaign against our movement and the annual sit-at-home order will make an iota of difference because Biafrans know they are all natural betrayers.

For the information of those seeking to attract the attention of their Abuja paymasters, let it be known that IPOB does not respond to Fulani slaves in our midst, hopeless attention seeking individuals or mushroom groups seeking relevance through newspaper advertorials. We respond to their masters in Abuja and Fulani caliphate. IPOB has never and will never join issues with individuals or people that merely mouth freedom for Biafra but deep down are servants of the caliphate seeking to attach themselves to IPOB agitation in the hope of raising their profile with Aso Rock.

It is unfortunate that this same collection of meaningless Igbo groups like the proscribed Ohaneze Ndigbo, Ala-Igbo Development Foundation (ADF) and South East Governors Forum would prefer to be always serving their Fulani masters than to be in good relationship with their own people. For the information of these Abuja slaves, 30th of May is not an Igbo affair, it is a Biafra wide commemoration of our heroes and that includes Philip Effiong the last Biafran Head of State who is not an Igbo man.

These compromised and useless Igbo groups should come to terms with the fact that IPOB is the people and the people are IPOB. No amount of patronising press statements or attention-seeking headlines in the newspapers will stop a total lockdown on May 30th.

These traitors should hide their pride and appreciate what the global family of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and its Supreme Leader, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, have done for Igbo people in particular and Biafrans in general as regards organizing and establishing an annual event like this to honour and remember our past heroes and heroines who paid the ultimate price for this generation to be alive today.

IPOB family and its leadership worldwide have courageously set aside 30th of May every year as a peaceful and special day for Biafrans both home and abroad to reflect on the massacre, diseases, hunger and starvation that Nigerian government and her allies inflicted on our fathers, mothers, sisters and children since 1966 till date.

The shameless Igbo political slaves and jobbers chose rather to identify with the oppressors by attempting to compromise this memorable annual day of Biafra history. We wonder why Ala-Igbo Development Foundation (ADF) and Ohaneze Ndigbo would engage in such self-demeaning act, openly identifying with the agenda of the caliphate which is to diminish the historical significance of May 30th.

It is on record that Ohaneze Ndigbo, Ala-Igbo Development Foundation (ADF) and other Igbo social cultural organizations normally have their Igbo Day jamboree every 29th September of each year and not on 30th of May as being mischievously touted by some elements within Ala-Igbo Development Foundation. It is the height of stupidity, ignorance and mischief making to seek to shift Igbo Day to 30th of May when Biafra encompasses other non-Igbo nationalities.

Biafra remembrance day celebration and commemoration of Biafran heroes and heroines who sacrificed their youthful lives in defense of their fatherland must hold regardless of who is against it.
