Killings of Biafra Activists: Restructure and Renegotiate Nigeria Now!

by Eze Eluchie,

Today, 16,764 days after the ‘official’ end of the Biafran genocide on the 15^th of January 1970, the very first person of Igbo nationality to be killed by bullets of Nigeria Government security forces in the quest for a renegotiation and restructuring of the Nigerian contraption and the actualization of Biafra, 20 year old Miss. Anthonia Nkirika Ikeanyionwu, will be laid to rest today at Amaolu, Adazi Unukwu in Anambra State.

Several others were killed and others maimed by bullets, alongside Miss Ikeanyionwu, in a vicious crack down by security operatives on peaceful demonstrators in Onitsha, Anambra State (within the territtory of the erstwhile Republic of Biafra) on 2^nd December 2015.

Over 2 million Igbos had been killed during the Biafran genocide which occurred in the course of the Nigeria-Biafra civil war from  6th July 1967 to 15th January 1970.

The well publicized comments by Nigeria’s current ruler and former dictator, Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari, to met out unequal and unfair treatment to peoples who gave him ‘5% votes’ during the last presidential elections (a category to which the Igbo nation belongs), has further exacerbated tension along ethnic lines.

May we not repeat the mistakes of times past.

Let us peacefully restructure and renegotiate the Nigeria contraption whilst we can.

When Rulers Get Summoned.

by Eze Eluchie

Why do some of these African rulers do these things to themselves and the territories they supposedly represent?

There certainly are some leaders in Africa who will never condescend to the imagery and reality depicted in the picture below. 

A couple of African rulers (not leaders) seated like naughty school kids being drilled by the Head-teacher, Ban ki Moon – does Alhaji Muhammadu Buhari (Nigeria), John Mahama (Ghana) and their ilk, soberly seated before Mr. Moon, realize that the UN Secretary General is a public servant whose salary and upkeep comes from the contributions of UN-member States, including the African countries?

Most probably, from this session with the UN Scribe, the rulers will take off en-mass to respond to a summons from the Heads of Governments of Brazil, Australia or wheresoever. Mass summons previously honoured with alacrity by African rulers have included invites from the US, France, Britain, India and China.

In all these foreign trips of highly doubtful benefits to the home territories of these rulers, one direct benefit to the globetrotters who often travel in state-of –the-art private jets, is that they never forget to purchase a couple of choice real estates in the countries they visit whilst ceaselessly complaining about their handicap in being unable to harness the rich potentials over which they preside.

The people have to take their destinies in their own hands if they ever want to see the light of day.

Needed to End ISIS: Regime Change in Turkey!

by Eze Eluchie

The world is gradually waking up to the reality of the connections between Turkey President, Tayyip Recep  Erdogan and ISIS.

By his shoot-down of the Russian fighter jet, Turkish President Erdogan had deliberately tried to pitch NATO in direct confrontation with Russia and thereby destroy the growing coalition of humanity to destroy ISIS which was evolving after the dastardly twin attacks on Russian passenger plane and the mass attacks on Paris soon thereafter.

From his antics during the ISIS onslaught on Kobani, to his relentless attacks on the Kurdish Peshmerga forces anytime the Kurds were in the offensive against ISIS, to serving as major conduits for sale of crude oil from ISIS controlled areas and as transit route for Western youths willing to join ISIS, to the quite revealing effort to instigate division against efforts at uniting against ISIS, the connections between Erdogan and ISIS had been out in the open for all to see for damn too long, yet most had missed it.

The first step to addressing the ISIS nightmare is a regime-change in Turkey.
