[dropcap]I[/dropcap]sn’t it strange that all the people writing about, and spreading heinous propaganda in the mainstream media about BIAFRA are from other tribes?
There is no single Igbo leader of significance that has said anything about Biafra, but other tribes have taken it upon themselves to issue statements, write imbecilic articles, distort historical facts, concoct injurious falsehood, and spew hate towards the Igbos.
Even the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), known for commenting on mundane issues like negative political adverts that contain facts of medical history, is suddenly mute in the face of these atrocities by the Nigerian government.
I want to assume that the unprecedented propaganda fireworks is not ordinary. I already assume that it is FG’s tacit response to the spreading protests in the South East, instead of intervening to restore hope, peace, and give assurances of togetherness and reconciliation to aggrieved citizens.
I have always had extremely low, sorry, ZERO, expectations from the Buhari project.
But what I didn’t see coming is that his administration will turn out to be such a HUGE DISASTER so early in the day.
The way Buhari has handled the protests shows that he is yet to understand what LEADERSHIP of a fragmented nation like Nigeria is all about.
2019, COME QUICKLY!
