A supporter of Biafra, Joe Manuel C. Eze has said that court cases and
diplomacy cannot guarantee the Igbo people self-determination.
Eze,
who is also a follower of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra
(IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu reiterated that many advanced sovereign nations in
the world got their self-determination after a revolution.
He adopted #RevolutionNow, initiated by human rights activist, Omoyele
Sowore to ask Igbo, Yoruba and Middle Belt people to stir a revolution
that will give them separate countries away from Nigeria, through a
referendum.
Eze, known as a philosopher, historian and rights
activist revealed this in an opinion article received by SaharaReporters
on Wednesday.
He said, “The truth is that legal battle and
diplomatic move cannot give us Biafra. Bruce Fein, Barrister Ejiofor and
co-lawyers will not give us Biafra. It doesn't matter if we buy the
highest educated US lawyer, he will not give us Biafra. Only #revolution
will give us Biafra.
“Go and check the history of nations’
freedom, no nation has ever gotten freedom legally, absolutely none!
Before America gained independence, there was a revolution. Before
China, UK, France, Germany, Russia gained independence, there was a
revolution. Even before Israel, the most persecuted nation gained
freedom in 1948, there was a revolution. How about the recent South
Africa? Was there no revolution?
“All these nations conducted
revolutions not because they were equipped militarily but because they
were strong in mind. South Africa conducted a revolution even when their
leader, Nelson Mandela was in detention.
“When are we going to
conduct our own revolution? Maybe when Nigerian soldiers kill all our
brave youths who could have carried out the revolution. We are all
shouting #freemazinnamdikanu and my question is: if Onyendu Mazi Nnamdi
Kanu is freed today, what will be the next step? To continue
broadcasting from where he stopped, isn't it? Onyendu has completed his
job, the rest lies in our hands.
“Our leader being in the DSS'
(Department of State Services') custody is the reason to conduct a very
strong revolution which will set him free and bring about REFERENDUM For
Biafra! His illegal abduction is what will vindicate us at the
international community when the tensions start.
“#REVOLUTION
is the only key that will draw the attention of the International
Criminal Court! Many will die but freedom is sure at the end. Setting up
CCTV cameras in Biafra land or going from one court to another cannot
help us. The opportunity to kill two birds with one stone is here for us
but unfortunately, we are about to misuse it.
“100 men with
lion hearts can start up a revolution, others will join in the meantime.
We have all it takes to start it, our men are on the ground; our Yoruba
brothers will join us, some Middle Belt who love freedom will join us.
Ending
the article with #RevolutionNow, he canvassed taking control of Biafra
land by agitators as the best way to go about their agitation.
