Ajofia Nnewi in one of his songs sang thus, Eziokwu welu oke, mana ya bu Afa kọlụ ụkọ na ana Igbo. Ajofia in this very song was underscoring how truth has become a scarce commodity in Ala Igbo.
Pray, tell me, if truth has not taken flight, how can Gaius Chibueze be taken to the cleaners by a huge percentage of Igbo youths just for pleading with Igbo diaspora to stop sending money to terrorists masquerading as agitators?
The quick mob trial, condemnation and the call to neutralize Gaius by many Igbos show that truth, like Ajofia sang, has indeed gone on sabbatical in Ala Igbo.
Here is Gaius, a young man who has supported many Igbo causes.
A man who has helped a lot of young of Igbos.
A man despite growing up in Lagos, but when his nuts were cracked by benevolent Spirits, came down to South East Ala Igbo to site all his business interest.
How does anyone in their right sense condemn such a man who shown to love Ala Igbo because he told a truth which we do not like to hear?
To Biafra sympathisers and apologists I ask;
Why must you insist on burning down Ala Igbo to the ground before you realize you are on a slippery slope with the whole Biafra agitation?
Why defend and deify those who are destroying and plundering our beloved Ala Igbo all because these destroyers, plunderers, terrorists are claiming to be on your side?
Why are you cancelling anyone who talks against the way these agitators are going about their quest for self determination? Does it mean if Biafra comes nobody will dare talk against its government or leaders?
This shows Biafra, as many of us have long suspected, is not freedom but bo***ge!
If Gaius, who in the past few years has shown great dedication towards the development of Ala Igbo can be condemned to die because he said a truth which is self evident, then I am more than convinced to say, May We Not See This Biafra!
If Biafra will be a nation where those who say the truth, those who have opposing voices shall be condemned and crucified, I say, May We Not See This Biafra!
If the quest for Biafra will continue to be bigger than truth, justice, righteousness and the sanctity of human life, then I say, May We Not See This Biafra!
I say, May This Biafra Never Come!
