Opinion
By Steve Osuji
IT is a sad day for me that an eminent young Igboman like you is the one sharing this most hateful propaganda against Ndigbo.
It’s particularly shocking that you couldn’t see through this orchestrated propaganda to paint Igbo DARK BLACK and try to convince gullible Nigerians that AN IGBO IS NOT FIT FOR PRESIDENT.
With the court ruling imminent, they are doing everything, including this subtle, subliminal propaganda to WRITE US DOWN.
Let me randomly address some of the so-called ills of the Igboland highlighted here:
1. Are Igbo politicians the worst as painted here. No. Not by a wide chance. I tell you that the mayhem we have witnessed perpetrated on Lagos since 1999 has no comparison in the whole world. Going by the quantum of revenues generated (and debt) in Lagos, this city should be ranking with Johannesburg. But it remains half slum. Anambra with a pittance of revenues probably has better road network.
Sokoto state has remained the poorest state in Nigeria for nearly 20 years. Who has called out Wammako or Bafarawa or Tambuwal. They are probably heroes to you?
After 8 years of Buhari, his Katsina state is suffering the worst malnutrition anywhere in the world. Tell me whether there’s malnutrition in Igboland.
Yet they convince you only Igbo politicians are vile. Our clergy and demons.
Our youth are IPoB, which is synonym for evil. our dibias are different from babalawos and devilish marabouts of the North and the sahel.
Our Phyno and Flavour are rubbish cooners while their Davido and Tiwa are pop equivalent of Mozart and Bach.
They agonise about arson and killings in Igboland but if you are discerning, you will know that they are orchestrating the violence in Igboland through their lackeys like Uzodinma and Soludo, umahi, Eze, etc.
But Fred what is IPoB compared to the internecine warfare ongoing in the North?
Twenty one of our soldiers were slaughtered in Niger State the other day. Have you heard any tough talk from the president or the CoAS? All hell would have broken loose if it happened in the southeast.
Nigerians are being murdered in cold blood all over the North. The most decrepit IDP camp innthe world is in Benue!
Has anyone written trash like this about any beguiling sultan and supine emirs doing nothing about these killings which border on pogrom and genocide?
LAST WORD: Others are free to hate you, but its self-immolation to also hate yourself. It is even worse when you don’t know they hate.
Fred Chukwuelobe see all the efulefus on your FB thread hailing you, saying you have HIT THE NAIL ON THE(IR) HEAD!
︎THIS ARTICLE (Cry My Beloved Igboland) IS HATE PROPAGANDA by enemies of Igboland who have sworn an Igbo would never be president), STOP SHARING IT!
