MAY 30
LET OUR PEOPLE GO
May 30 is a turning point in the life of every Igbo man. It is a water shed in the history of the geographical expression called Nigeria. It is the aftermath of the mistake of the amalgamation of the Northern and Southern protectorates by Lord Lugard. It is the reflection of the deep rooted hatred among the major ethnic nationalities in Nigeria. It exposes the hidden irreconcilable disdain existing between Islam and Christianity. It is all about a failed state called Nigeria.
Forty seven years after; Ojukwu's predictions are still starring us in the face. The reality of May 30 can no longer be hidden. But the Abuja politicians and contractors are not deterred. They believe in the elusive ''one Nigeria''. The one Nigeria that is their cash cow. The one Nigeria that is their source of corruption and impurity. The one Nigeria that is their instrument for inequality. The one Nigeria that is shielding them from all sorts of evil.
But the disturbing aspect of the evil called one Nigeria is that the common man bears the brunt. Like in the biblical Egypt, God hardens the hearts of Abuja politicians and contractors over the plight of the masses. For how long will the masses suffer? For how long will the injustice called Nigeria exist?
The Almighty God abhors injustice. As long as the intents and purposes of the amalgamation of the North and South were to cheat the South, Nigeria can never fly. The exercise was not done with clean hands. It failed to receive the blessing of God. That is why Nigeria remains a crawling baby after fifty years. The anger of God is on Nigeria. There is too much blood in Nigeria. The blood of the common man is used to sustain the evil called Nigeria. Insecurity in Nigeria can never abate. It is the sign of the anger of God.
There is only one solution to the problems of Nigeria. The only solution is for the six Geo-political zones in Nigeria to be granted independence. The assets of the citizens of the different zones will be protected by international laws. Bilateral agreement will guide the future relationship of the New Republics.
National conference can not solve the problems of Nigeria because there is deep rooted hatred among the different nationalities. The hatred is so deep and can not be wished away. We only pretend to love our selves. The hatred is natural. It is in our blood. No amount of preaching on nationalism can change Nigeria.
We must consider the lives our people that are wasted on a daily basis. We must not allow parochial interests and ambition to becloud our sense of reasoning. Our people are dying. The only solution is to divide Nigeria into Six Geo-political zones: namely- South-East[Biafra], South-West, South-South, North-East, North-West and North-Central. This is the only solution that can save our people.
That was what our great Hero Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu tried to do in 1967, but was misunderstood. That is what we are still saying today. That is what we will continue to say through non-violence until the needful is done. That is the only message of May 30. That is the only solution to our problems.
Abuja should use their good offices to do the will of God. They should relieve us of the burden called Nigeria. They should let our people go.
