Is it not amazing to hear Biafrans, mainly
of Igbo ethnic stock, claim that Nizooria (Nigeria) would have nothing to lose
from the forthcoming election-boycott declared by Biafrans? They claim Biafra
and Biafrans would be the losers because a state of emergency would be declared
by Nigerian government, and the boycott would be of no effect.
Meanwhile, Nigerian government and its
agents and agencies (knowing the full implications) are working round the clock
to degrade the planned boycott (sit-at-home). If boycott would favour them, why
then are they mustering everything and spending so much energy to degrade it? As
we write, they are going about abducting Biafrans with every flimsy excuses,
torturing and murdering them at every given opportunity.
As the campaigns hot up in many parts of
Anambra State, they are afraid and have started terrorizing Biafrans once
again; abducting many in a bid to frighten them away. They go to newspaper
stands to beat up vendors and Biafrans chatting on Biafra issues generated by
the news stories. They have abducted many Biafrans and are torturing them in
their many detention centres in Biafraland and elsewhere. In spite of all
these, those Biafrans still have not guessed that they (Nigerian government)
knew what the full weight of a successful boycott would be for them.
Biafran singers, who have been promoting
the no-election campaign with their songs are being chased around Biafraland,
abducted, threatened, and tortured. A good example is Don Prince, who was
abducted by a cousin. They offered him bribe after torturing him, but he
rejected it. They threatened him with guns, he refused to budge and they beat
him more and left him for dead. But he recovered.
After the successful boycott of Enugu
State Local Government elections, their fears have heightened, they are now
very afraid of the big one, the Anambra State election coming up this November
18. Sensing the danger to their accursed one-Nigeria, they have upped the tempo
of their repressive acts. The most recent of that act was the bombing at Coal
Camp in Enugu, where the Police where seen to have camped throughout the night before
the election (when most probably must have planted the bomb).
They did not stop there. They went ahead
to apprehend two hardworking Biafran journalists accusing them of being
responsible for the bombing. They wanted to use the Biafrans to justify their
lie (and wicked tag) that Biafrans are terrorists. But they have come unstuck
already.
They have just seen that the terrorist tag
could not stick because Biafran media all over the world are exposing them, and
they have gone wild trying to close more than 21 websites that were favorable
to the Biafran struggle. But Biafrans are just laughing at them. Let them do
that and see the struggle taken to a new height, the way it had been with their
other actions in the past.
They have abducted men and women of Biafra
who they claimed were producing Biafra materials and publications, and yet some
Biafrans still doubt the potency of the Sit-at-home that would soon hit them as
thunder.
But come November 18, it will be a case of
“come and see Biafra wonder”. The whole world is invited to come and observe.
