Today we remember the courage of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and the stand taken by IPOB during one of Nigeria’s darkest political periods.

Many believe that without their fearless agitation and global spotlight on the excesses of the Buhari era, the marginalization of the South-East and the alleged jihadist infiltration of state institutions would have gone unchallenged.

Whether you agree with every method or not, history will record that when others were silent or compromised, Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB stood as the loudest voice against tyranny, terrorism sponsorship allegations, and the attempted Islamization narrative.

Ndi Igbo and all lovers of justice across Nigeria owe him a debt of gratitude for his sacrifice.

Enugu Coal Miners Massacre took place.

On November 18, 1949, a sad event took place in Enugu. A day when 21 Iva Valley Coal Miners were killed and 51 injured by the police sponsored by British Imperialist

So what really happened?

Today in History.

During colonial rule, miners in Enugu, launched a “ca’canny” (deliberately limiting output at work).

They were led by the General Secretary of the Colliery Workers Union, a Igbo man named Isaiah Okwudili Ojiyi, who indigenised the term by calling it “welu nwayo” (the law prohibited strikes). Evidently, Igbo language played a crucial role in this audacious and brave resistance to colonial oppression.

Enugu coal was the crude oil of the colonial era; It was used to power the economy of the British empire and was vital to British war efforts during the most savage struggle between European imperial powers (the so called “World War 2”).

While the European “colonial masters” were living their best lives above the coal mines like our contemporary Political elites, the Igbo and African miners were inside the coal mines slaving under the most brutal work environment with little or no protection.

They were poorly compensated and the British maintained the poverty wages by hiring more workers than they needed (an exploitative policy called rostering), in order to quickly dismiss and cheaply replace workers.

Mazi Ojiyi who sued a white man (Mr. T. Yates) for slapping him in 1945, was now leading his fellow miners to demand better wages and improved working conditions. The first attempt recorded some success, but during the second attempt, the British superintendent of Police, F. S. Philip ordered his men to open fire at the miners.

Ojiyi should be one of the most celebrated Igbo & Nigerian for his heroic resistance which became the last stroke that broke the colonial camel back. After the massacre of the Enugu miners in 1949, Nigerians and the world were outraged. It led to widespread and fervent anti-colonial protests in Nigeria.

Today is the anniversary of the Iva Valley Massacre. We must ensure that the memory of Okwudili Ojiyi, 21 of his comrades who fell, and 51 others who were wounded at Iva Valley coal mine, lives forever in the hearts and minds of every Igbo generation!

Their wives deserves an honourable mention, for coming to the coal mine to show their solidarity. ✊🏾

Reverend Ezekiel Dachomo a symbol of Practical Christianity. He has the option of filing for asylum and relocating to America, UK and India but he chose to stay put with his people in defence of their life, their land and the gospel.

Jesus is Glorified and Nigeria shall be saved.

Nnamdi Kanu hasn’t changed his Fendi clothes for over 4 years now, why?

Nnamdi Kanu wanted to wear “isi agu” clothes the traditional Igbo attire and both DSS and the court refused him. They said that “isi agu” clothe scares them.

“Clothes with lion’s head offend the standard operating procedures” DSS said.

Through Daniel Bwala, the Nigerian government is pointing the finger at IPOB for Trump’s moves against Nigeria. So U.S. lawmakers and President Trump are giving more ear to a group Nigeria labeled terrorists than to its own officials? Who knew IPOB are that powerful? Wild times.

They blame IPOB for everything including the insecurity in the southeast. They’re blaming IPOB for killing of Nigerians in Zamfara, Plateau, Benue, Ondo and many parts of Nigeria.

US is not Nigeria, they have carried out their own investigation and they have their data. Dear please be quick in wiping out the terrorists and their sympathisers.

To and other distinguished members of the US Parliament, thank you for not forgetting Nigerian Christians.

FROM NGWO'S "OYI UKAKA" TO OLYMPIC CHAMPION (IN MY HEAD) – MY HILARIOUS SWIM SAGA!

Yo fam! If you’re from a landlocked village like me, raise your hand 🙋🏾‍♂️. We were BORN IN FEAR, BREASTFED WITH FEAR, and now fear is our UNWANTED ROOMMATE that won’t pay rent! 😭😂

In my village Ukaka Ngwo, we have NO RIVER, NO SEA, just one legendary stream called “Oyi Ukaka”, a magical cave where water gushes from a rock like heaven’s own tap. Crystal clear, pure vibes but ZERO SWIMMING LESSONS. Why? Because Ngwo people + Water = Enemies Since 1900.

Growing up? Swimming pool = Alien spaceship. I’d visit one and HUG THE SHALLOW END like my life depended on it (because it did). Try to go deeper? A tiny demon voice whispers:
“Nedu, remember Ngwo people and water are NOT besties. You go drown, your mama go cry!”


On one of my Lagos visits, one fine babe took me to Lagos Beach. I’m there posing, snapping pics, LOOKING AT WATER LIKE IT’S MY EX 😒. She said “Let’s swim!” I said “Let’s NOT and say we did!” 😂

Then boom, I went on a trip. Beaches so fine, even the sand was flexing! I couldn’t resist. Jumped in like a pro at the baby shallow part. Water touched my legs to my waist? I RAN LIKE USAIN BOLT ON WATER 🏃🏾‍♂️💨

This angel-faced lady said:
“Nedu, I got you. Come learn!”
I said: “Okay, but shallow o!”
SHE TOOK ME TO THE DEEP END LIKE A SACRIFICE 😭

KABOOM! I’m underwater, legs kicking like I’m fighting invisible sharks. She dives in, saves me, laughing:
“I told you I got you!”
YES MA, BUT NOT LIKE THIS! 😂🤦🏾‍♂️

Went on a boat cruise, good music, fresh fish, vibes was d***y! We stop at a cave island. Everyone jumps off to swim 100 meters to shore.
Me? LIFE JACKET ON, PRAYER ON REPEAT 🙏🏾

I swam like a drunk frog 🐸 but I MADE IT!
I’M NOW AN OLYMPIC CHAMPION IN MY VILLAGE GROUP CHAT😂.

But on the way back? Reggae done, blues start playing 😭
Few strokes in, I’m TIRED AF. Life jacket or not, I felt like Titanic’s cousin. A random uncle saw me sinking and yelled:
“Oga, you dey swim or you dey dance?!”
SAVED AGAIN! 😩

YESTERDAY: I FACED MY DEMONS 😤💪
Went to a private beach. Waves calm, vibes sweet. I stepped in, FEAR CAME KNOCKING.
I looked fear in the eye and said:
“OGA, YOUR TENANCY HAS EXPIRED! PACK OUT!” ✋🏾😂

An old papa saw me paddling like a confused duck:
“Young man, you no sabi swim?”
SHAME WANTED TO FINISH ME 😳
I lied: “Na warm-up!”

But guess what? I HAD FUN! Splashed, floated, laughed, I DIDN’T DIE!

MORAL OF THE STORY, KIDS:
1. Fear is a LIAR – it will tell you Ngwo people can’t swim. PROVE IT WRONG!
2. Start small – shallow end first, then waist, then maybe chest? 😂
3. Life jacket = Your village people’s best friend 🙌🏾
4. One day, I’ll swim like Michael Phelps or at least like a confident duck 🦆

TAG YOUR FRIEND WHO CAN’T SWIM BUT POSES AT THE POOL! 😂
SHARE IF YOU’VE EVER BEEN SAVED FROM DROWNING BY A RANDOM UNCLE! 👇🏾💦
