WHEN MEDIA FINALLY FINDS ITS VOICE

By Anyi Kings

I am deeply encouraged that our comrades are beginning to speak up. The reform within IPOB is already yielding fruit. When media becomes truly independent, it can serve truth to the people without fear or favor. Sadly, this is what IPOB media lacked for many years

Today, reform has positioned the media to work independently—to speak truth to power. The corrupt Nnamdi Kanu will no longer have a hiding place.

To those mischief makers asking why the media is not channeling all its energy toward fighting for Kanu’s release instead of questioning him while he remains in chains—emotional blackmail and sentimental illusions can never stop the exposure of evil.

For years, Kanu mastered the art of using IPOB media as a shield for his many  criminalities, family-centered profiteering, and imposed loyalty.

If we were truly united for one common purpose—the liberation of our people from oppression by the Nigerian state, and the protection of our land from invaders, terrorists, and armed  Fulani herders—how then can one man turn around and privatize our collective struggle, commercialize our sacrifices, and directly merchandise the blood and pain of innocent Biafrans?

If evidence now points to the possibility that much of the insecurity witnessed in Biafra land over the last five to six years was enabled by Kanu himself, then it would be a grave injustice to the victims of those atrocities for IPOB media—an institution sworn to defend the land—to continue campaigning for his release while suppressing the truth.

What IPOB media owes our people is simple: the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The truth must expose betrayal wherever it is found.

And if tomorrow fortune smiles on kanu , and the government grants him pardon, as he walks out of prison, Biafrans themselves must decide whether he should ever again exploit the sacred name of Biafra for personal gain.

If Biafrans fail to make an example of failed leadership, then future leaders will never learn accountability. 

They must understand that our passion for Biafra restoration was born from the agony of millions who were starved to death during the Nigerian Civil War… from the victims of the 1966 Anti-Igbo Pogroms… from fallen agitators During  Chief Uwazuruike's led Massob and from thousands of peaceful IPOB protesters who paid the ultimate price in pursuit of freedom, referendum, justice, and self-determination.

Those innocent souls deserve our absolute loyalty—not leaders who exploit their sacrifice for selfish ambition.

If we neglect the sacred duty of media sanitization and leadership scrutiny, then we become accomplices in the continuous deception of our people, while giving our enemies every reason to mock our cause as “Biafraud.”

And history will judge everyone who knows the truth, has the opportunity to speak, yet chooses silence for temporary praise, personal gain, or selfish interest.
