By a concerned Nigerian
In what appears as an unprecedented move, the quest for the sovereign state of Biafra has taken a new form. From a 15mins video which got into circulation yesterday, young men and women dressed in black and black were seen taking command from their “commanders” in place that looks like a village parade ground. The man at the center of the agitation, Nnamdi Kanu, was also seen inspecting these various platoons of “soldiers” who came from different parts of South East and South-South.
Apart from the fact that the parade was a caricature of Boys Brigade parade practice, it was a mockery of all the person involved and the people they represent. As we are all aware, this is not the best of times as there is tension in most part of the country owing to various protests and unrest, like the Return or Resign protest (which witnessed a small riot at Wuse Market yesterday) for and against (president Mohammadu Buhari) rally, the October 1 quit notice, the Fulani herdsmen and the many more security concerns the nation is facing, the nation should not be thrown in to uncertainties. This brigandage should be nipped in the bud right in time.
It may interest you to know, this set of riffraff have decided to be rival to the Department of State Security Service by christening themselves “Biafra Secret Service (BSS)” and it was said that they are ready to “volunteer their life to fight for and defend Biafra land”. As far as I know, this is an illegal organization which is capable of undermining the security of the entire country.
It is clear and obvious Nnamdi Kanu has flaunted his bail conditions but has not been rearrested based on reasons best known to security operatives. If he’s allowed to continue in this manner, Nigeria will eventually become a lawless state. The earlier this agitation for the state of Biafra is controlled the better for the peaceful coexistence of every one of us.
The agitators of this secessionist movement as well as every other person making statements capable of causing unrest must be called to order with immediate effect. It is high time the acting president take a decisive action to douse all the tension.
A stitch in time saves nine.
