One never knew Cable News Network (CNN), the
self-styled news-leader, was aware of the Biafra independence struggle from
Nigeria (Biafrexit). The CNN had never reported any of Biafrans’ numerous
travails in the hands of Nigerian government and its murderous, terrorist Army;
as well as Police, Navy, and Airforce.
Right now, reports emanating from Biafraland since yesterday,
November 17, Nigerian Army, Police and others have been throwing bombs all over
Anambra State; then turning around to arrest and brutalize innocent Biafrans
who were going about their normal legitimate businesses. Up till this morning,
the Election Day for Anambra Governorship election, CNN has not reported
anything.
Why is CNN like this? Since 2015, the unarmed,
peaceful, and nonviolent Biafrans have been detained, tortured and killed by
the Nigerian government, and yet CNN had never for once reported it. Even when
on the day of Donald Trump’s swearing-in ceremony as the United States of
America (USA) President, when young Biafrans rallied in his support, scores of
them were killed, while others were brutalized and tortured by Nigerian Army,
Police, Navy and Airforce, CNN reported nothing.
Even the abduction of Nnamdi Kanu, the Biafran
leader (whose whereabouts is currently unknown) after the Nigerian Army stormed
his father’s house on November 14, with nothing less than 28 people shot and
killed; even with the brutality meted out to unarmed Biafran youths on and
around that November 14 in Abia State and beyond, all CNN platforms blacked the
incident.
It was therefore a surprise that few days ago, that
when the fake news broke few days ago of some unknown individuals sacking the
Biafran leader, CNN suddenly woke from its slumber and went to town with the
fake news. Does it mean Donald Trump was right when he listed CNN as part of
the fake news media that was growing in leaps and bounds all over the world?
Who is CNN working for? Where is their report on the
current atrocities of Nigerian government against peaceful and unarmed
Biafrans?
