I have decided to make a real media affair, my response to a sister (names withheld), who helped share hate audio against Hausa/Fulani by one Chukwudi, who calls himself President of United Nigeria Initiative, and sent me a clip morning of Saturday October 12, 2019. Adopting it as content of my WAKE UP column this weekend, I believe, will give it a boost, wider spread and credibility. Apology to our patriotic Igbo who are in tbe minority in own region. Read unedited excerpts:
Sister,
Good morning. I have listened to this audio you are sharing because I know I am not the only person you sent it to. You need to stop partaking in the sharing of such devilish audio inciting Nigerians into war or conflicts against one another.
This is because there is no way you can justify an Igbo member of terrorist IPOB setting non-Hausa/Fulani Nigerians in war against other Nigerians. This, if you are caught, can lead to your arrest as an accomplice in destruction of Nigeria and you and others caught in the act of sharing the evil audio can be charged for treason which is punishable by death. So, my sister be informed and be warned.
2. I will tell you what you need to know about the content of this disgusting video but which you do not bother to know before jumping into sharing. These guys doing this sre largely Igbo and you need to go and find out the position of Igbo about the sustainable peace, security, unity and development of independent Nigeria. This brought them to taking arms against their country Nigeria and whoever (unwritten Constitution says) wages war against his or her country is stripped of the right to rule or partake in the control of leadership of that country. These guys know they have lost it by their own act of unstatemanship and unpatriotism and so, like they did during the First Republic which led to the demolition of first Nigerian democracy, they are senselessly calling for it again.
This time they want to make it like all Nigeria struggle but against whom? Shamelessly against one and only Nigerian Tribe: The Hausa/Fulani. That is why they are doing what this man, Chukwudi, has done in this audio you sent to me calling himself President of the United Nigerian Initiative.
But how sincere and truthful can this devil be? He is calling President of (United State of the) Federal Republic of Nigeria, Alhaji General Muhammadu Buhari unprintable names for no reason. You listen to him again by yourself: he said “today August 4, 2019 the head of Fulani, Hausa, herdsmen etc has been confirmed dead in the hospital and therefore that Nigerians should rise up for war as, according to him, this is the war time Buhari has been waiting for and that people from Hausa/Fulani Northern Nigeria, all over Africa and Arab world would come into Nigeria and fight this war and that he has been saying Buhari the one arming herdsmen and nobody believed him.
Please my sister, what im this statement of Chukwudi suggests that there is any sign of looming wsr in the land to warrant his call for self defence on the part of other Nigerians if not a devil incarnate trying to cause confusing in the land and make personal ambition based problem look like problem of all? This is one major aspect you should look at and desist from helping him sharing his evil.
3. He did this audio on August 4 when I was day two in Madinah, my first point of call in Saudi Arabia during the last Hajj, but today is October 12 when you are sharing it. I have been following situation of my home country from that far away five-hour flight God-favoured Nation and didn’t hear or know of any claim by Chukwudi to exist. If any Fulani leader died as he said, did he not deserve the sympathy of mourning? Did his family not deserve to be pitied and even solidarised with? Is it call to war against his entire tribe including the President hailing from his tribe that should be the way of such Igbo group? And you, my sister are not Igbo. Why do you find yourself so engulfed in his self centered struggle against other tribe and President of the country? And
4. He is a liar. Buhari is not his problem. The Hausa/Fulani tribe his race just don’t wantbto see exist with us I Nigeria. If Nigeria is divided today, does that stop Hausa/Fulani North from being neighbour of Southern Nigerian people? Moreso, if you ask them where did Fulani cause their pains you won’t get an answer. Yet, they did collateral damages that anybody can think of against Hausa/Fulani tribe and they up till today never wished for vengeance. The Hausa/Fulani people remain the only Nigerians in power who think about Nigeria. Others, who have been in power from other tribes particularly of this useless terrorist Chukudi (the court says IPOB is terrorist group and he is a member by his actions and utterance though faceless), have been concerned only about themselves and therefore fed fat on Nigeria snd even plunged the country in dangerous state of insecurity, socially, economically politically and ethnically. These non-Hausa/Fulani ruled Nigeria for 14 of first 16 years of Fourth Republic democratic experience. The tribe of Chukwudi never felt the presence of Federal Government. Nigeria Delta based national oil wealth was taken without the oil producing area developed or even provided sccess roads. East-West Road was in shamble, entire South East was cut off from other Nigeria by their own people in power stacking Nigerian money in banks abroad ignorantly developing economies of other nations to the detriment of their own home country and it’s people. The first Hausa/Fulani President came and was acknowledged doing well untill death cut him short in two years. The second Hausa/Fulani President came hand was barely there for 24 hours when these devilish elements started their war of gate inciting to conflicts in the land to collapse the country as if when it collapsed, they will be saved. And some senseless Yoruba like Ayo Fayose, Femi Fani Kayode, and now Omoyele Sowore are queuing behind them staging a coup against the nation acirding to his charge and he has his support mainly from this IPOB infested part of the country.
The question is, if Buhari is not there tomorrow, will Igbo war against Hausa/Fulani end? The answer is not deferrable. It is NO. Then why should I bother myself about a people who just don’t wish Nigeria to be in peace for a moment?
They lost it all because after they had waged war against their country and have been taken of the stage for long, only Hausa/Fulani in President Muhammadu Buhari has considered them to return to power to succeed him. But I want any Nigerian to convince me that with all we have had from South East youth called IOIB and backed by their elders Ohaneze Ndigbo, who under the firmament of Nigeria in North and South West of the country will ever support Buhari transferring power to Igbo? This chance has been further damaged by the effort of the likes of Chukwudi and nobody among us will be blamed for the consequences.
So, my sister, stop being part of the spread of this audio. It is evil and unNigerian.
Thank you ma.
