BIAFRA:
THE GLORY OF BIAFRA AND THE OBSCURITY OF NIGERIA.

Nnamdi Kanu

Some people are born great, some achieve greatness through hard work while some pay their ways into achieving it. With greatness comes boldness and the knack of being outstanding amongst peers. To many, the person of Nnamdi Kanu is still unclear. Simply put, Nnamdi Kanu is the director and worldwide leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra. Post-1967-70, Biafra, Biafrans and her restoration have never seen nor experienced the kind of structures and leadership it garners. None believed that a movement that started some years back via an internet radio whose sustenance was a thing of concern could within a very few years later be a global phenomenon and it never struggle to gallantly take a space on the front pages of many global newspapers.
Precision and tenacity was imbibed into this movement and has thus far been sustaining it beyond comprehension. When the Director of Radio Biafra London and the worldwide leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra brazenly and fervidly declared his unflinching resoluteness towards the quest for the restoration of Biafra, many people believed this was another rambling moment of a person deprived of anything and everything good in Nigeria. Believing in one's beliefs is what makes Nnamdi Kanu outstanding amongst the group of individuals that have been blowing the trumpets of Biafra and herrestoration. In his words years ago, ''.....the world will write and talk about Biafra when the time comes.'' Today, that prophecy hasn't only been fulfilled, we are all seeing much more of the prophecies being fulfilled. Sincerely, many of the people clamoring and yearning for the restoration of their sacred homeland; Biafra were infants and some were not yet born when the gory incidence that led to the genocidal massacre of more than 5 million innocent, defenseless and harmless Biafrans children, women, and men by the murderous Nigerian military government. Close to half a century after this heinous crime was committed, the causes, effects, and solutions have never been discussed nor tried to be discussed by the same people that perpetrated these acts. Making the matter worse, they still want to erase that part of our history even in this era. That was why Yakubu Gowon said that “....with Biafra it is finished.”

The world is in a phase in which news and information are passed across immediately without waiting until the news vendors come around with the news of yesterday. Nnamdi Kanu and the leadership of the IPOB through Radio Biafra London, have awoken the lackadaisical spirits of Biafrans worldwide to relish the importance of this Biafra's restoration project. Never in the history of the world have we seen a well-coordinated worldwide membership of indigenous people in their respective countries of residence as seen in Biafrans, daily succinct analysis of events globally by Biafrans, informative contributions to real-time events, civilized peaceful worldwide protests and unflinching love towards Biafra. The number of daily volunteers has never been seen before even during the genocidal war. One then questions, what is it about Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB leadership acumen that warrants such a surge? Simply, the tenacity of mind and purpose.
Nnamdi Kanu promised he will never disappoint Biafrans in ensuring the restoration of Biafra and even in his incarceration, he is still fulfilling this onus. Therefore, fellow Biafrans, friends of Biafrans and all lovers of freedom worldwide. Are we not going to do a disservice to Nnamdi Kanu and his unflinching believe in us should we allow laziness or fear of intimidation and resentment by the state of Nigeria to becloud our collective resolves to ensuring that Biafra is restored and our readiness in building a new nation? Now is the time to tell the world that Biafrans are ready to build a nation and just as the slogan goes, ''....it's either Biafra or death.'' Even at his precarious state in the hands of Nigeria's security personnel whose, blatant display of insolence in publicly wielding assault rifles at him. He, Nnamdi Kanu never sabotaged this movement and his beliefs in Biafra. With these usher in the glory of Biafra against the obscurity of Nigeria and her personnel as seen in the respective court cases against Nnamdi Kanu by the Nigerian government.
In the words of Napoleon Bonaparte, ''Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever.'' Long live Biafrans and all hail Biafra!!
