For
us to be left to die in what our
collective fates fated for us, is to die in a gory deaths in the face of injustice
and in what the universe accepted as a yardstick to dispense equity and
inalienable rights yet the universe allowed Biafrans to die; the world couldn't
defend her laws where Biafra lies, Biafra is a spirit ingrained in us that many
are ready to die for her and always ready to pay the price to redeem her
freedom if the price involves shedding our bloods, we have died enough that
pity should be a path of consideration for healing old wounds leading to
nursing of a people already baptized with genocide.
The
most destructive aspect of abuse is the trauma it causes to our hearts and the
stamps it leaves in our souls from being betrayed by the people that we love
and trust most. It was an emotional month of September for millions of Biafrans
as the news making headlines that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie reportedly said
"enough of this political correctness; I am a Biafran and nothing
else" many people from all ranks and files wondered what better way to
begin the month if not with such a positive mind set knowing that finally our
heavy wights are boldly coming out for the struggle for the liberation of her
people subjected to physical and eternal slavery.
The
peoples happiness know no bounds as joy and jubilee over whelmed everyone in
their closets; little did they know that their morning will suddenly turn into
darkness few day's after the declaration, when the world renounced prolific and
award-winning writer went on her Facebook page to distanced herself from the
report. In refuting the reportage by many online news outlets posited that
"this headline below; and others similar headlines, which appeared on some
websites are false". They are completely invented, along with some
accompanying quotes which have been attributed to me; i did not say or write
those words; the spark from this betrayal starts volcanic eruption and inferno.
It
was an emotional trauma to the Biafrans that celebrated this prolific writer of
"Half of a Yellow Sun" - A Biafra tales; an open assault on our
Nation creed as a distinct people because there is no greater blessing than a
family hand that lifts you from a fall; but there is no lower curse to a family
hand that strikes you when you're down.
To
me as a pen writer in the field of inking out human thoughts, I was depressed
but I wasn't surprised either because that is what that balances a constructive
criticism; I spent close to two hours on her post reading comments and views of
Biafrans and people from other Nigeria Nationalities, some has said that
Biafrans are so harsh and disrespectful to the African frontline novelist, but
i totally disagree with anybody with such insinuation.
This
is the highest form of betrayal; what did she try to portray in her novel
titled "Half of a Yellow Sun" followed by the wide uncensored
circulated videos and the Nigeria censored aspect of it? I guess they never
knew what it means to be betrayed by your own. Many failed to understand what
Biafra represent in our lives but sees it as an avenue to amass blood-ill
wealth by writing on the Biafra story to gain cheap recognition and riches at
the detriment of the genocide baptized Biafra same did Ngozi Adichie did.
Little
do she know of the pains, anger, deprivation, subjection, subjugation,
oppression, molestation and killings the Biafrans suffered in the hands of this
jihad and tyrannic Nigerian Government under the mantle rule of Sokoto
Caliphate from inception. On reading the comment of thousands of Biafrans
angrily expressing their disappointment on Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, I broke
down in tears because it dawn on me if Biafrans could feel this bad and hit at
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie this way not minding the respect and love we have for
her, then how much more will over 3.5 million of Biafrans killed by the
Nigerian military will Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie and each an every one of us
alive today pay to live if we can be selfish to this extent.
Ngozi
Adichie should remember that they died so she could live, that they died so she
could stand up firm and defend them, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie should also be
made to know that they died so she could tell their story but this was found lacking in her
person; Certificate couldn't defend this neither will personality give you this
wisdom but Yahuah Alulym. Too bad she failed too quick, a woman of substance,
Ngozi Adichie should know that the people she denied feel depressed in their
graves, insulted ,betrayed and abandoned that their memory was totally
forgotten by their own flesh and blood. Ngozi Adichie should please make use of the rest room and console
herself in tears and shame.
The
saddest part of betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies; The truth
remains that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie have urinated on the grave of our fallen
heroes and heroines, it is a clear act of cowardice that she fail to speak up
on the injustice and pogrom perpetrated on her supposedly Igbo people, the
writer used the term "Igbo" cause she is not fit to be called a
Biafran as we all know that it is not every Igbo is a Biafran.
Come
to the sense of reasoning, one may be wondering what exactly have Chimamanda
Ngozi Adichie done for the collective interest of her IGBO brothers and
sisters; thousands of Biafrans [IGBO's included] that are been killed on a
daily basis by the Buhari led government; all because they are asking for their
rights of self-determination which I believe Ngozi Adichie as a scholar can
tell the meaning without mincing terms for clarity sakes; the most recent of it
is the military invasion of Biafra land Umuahia and Aba to be specific where
the Nigerian military attacked and abducted the leader of the Indigenous People
of Biafra - Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, many innocent and unarmed Igbo speaking Biafrans
were murdered, up until this moment the corpses of those killed and carted away
with are nowhere to be found.
I
believe Ngozi Adichie is happy in her stomach with this and her emotional
betrayal; Mazi Nnamdi kanu is still missing and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie a
Nigerianist cum pseudo-Biafra sympathizer still can't condemn this high rate of
ethnic cleansing on her so called Igbo people; as she claims she is not a
Biafran, the novelist has failed to use here writing prowess to bring to the
attention of the world; the continuous Subjugation of her supposedly Igbo
people in Nigeria rather she was quick to distance herself from anything that
linkss her to Biafra on her page; choose to remain silent and watch her people
die in Perpetual slavery. What a hypocrisy!
Many
will talk of her book "Half of a Yellow Sun, but we consider it shameful
on her part when people will only be writing more of the 1967-70 Genocide when
arguably we are currently suffering the same thing continously of what our
fathers suffered in the 1967-70 genocidal war, Biafra land have been under
serious siege, and the Nigeria government have conspired with most of the main
stream media not to report the ongoing massacre in other to effectively trample
on our human rights, guess Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is waiting for when her
people are completely annihilated, then she will bring their plights to her
audience in another book so as to amass blood money with stories that never
touched her inner human. It has become pertinent that every true Biafran should
cheer him or herself up and look unto the Almighty Chukwu Okike Abiama who is
the author and finisher of our faith because humans will fail us, Nations will
not hear nor come to our rescue yet our Chi anyi amanda [ Yahuah Aluhym of
Yahisrael will never fail in restoring Biafra] with Chukwu Okike Abiama on our
side at the end Biafra must be restored .
