outside the continent. An estimated $274 billion [/b]leaves Sub-Saharan Africa for other countries. These huge amounts of money embezzled by African leaders exceed their national debt. Do you see why debts are not easily cancelled? The Lootocrats in Africa are the ones keeping our continent backward. You can see why the lootocrats in Nigeria don’t want us to have Biafra.
Yes, secession of Biafrans from the [b]LOOTOCRATIC Nigeria will lessen the purse of the looters. Nigeria and other African nations do not practise democracy. What we have is a DEMOCRATISED LOOTOCRACY. My own governor, I have been duly informed by his own brothers, is busy acquiring properties in and out of the state and nation. I have been shown a lot of properties he has acquired in just two years. We all know why they are scared of Biafra. Biafra will take Nigeria and Africa out of the woods. Embezzlement is a soft word that makes stealing a conventional thing.
The looter is no different than a thief and will be treated as such in Biafra Republic. There will be no such distinction between the THIEVING POLITICIAN and an ARMED ROBBER, for the MANDATE of the people is what the looter uses as arms. Biafra will westernize Africa.
Please note that this work is the first in the series. The next episode shall do justice to the Gross National Product of several African nations. You will see that even in countries where gold is a natural resource, poverty sits comfortably. You have seen what Abacha looted. You have seen the amount of money that leaves Sub-Saharan Africa. What you have not seen is how much Osinbajo, Buhari (living-dead), Obasanjo, Abdusalami, Amaechi, Odili, Obiano, Wike, Atiku, IBB, Senators, other governors, other presidents in Africa, political appointees, emirs, kings, Sultan etc all over Africa have looted and are still looting. Africa is a household of lootocrats. Every politician in Nigeria is driven by the lootocratic spirit. It is the truth we must begin to tell ourselves. A sustained African and Nigerian politics rejuvenates our national and continental underdevelopment. Things will get worse as long as Nigeria remains loosely ONE.
The template is too corrupt for any form of economic growth. Nigeria and Africa are far away from Rostow’s takeoff stage. As a matter of fact, recent events in Nigeria show that we are on our way back to the PRIMITIVE/TRADITIONAL stage. Ours is a receding economy, and Biafrans, those blessed with the needed technology to MODERNISE [/b]Africa, have said they will not take this plunge with Nigeria. Biafra is the remedy for this speedily receding enclave called Nigeria. Watch out for parts 2 and 3.
Nigeria, we divorce thee.
Biafra, we hail thee.
