The priest of the Catholic
Institute of West Africa (CIWA) Portharcourt, Rev.fr Pius, has condemned the
agitation for Biafra by Nnamdi Kanu and the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
The priest, during a Sunday
service, said Kanu came from nowhere to lure young people into a senseless
agitation.
He said: "Before 2013, I
have never heard of this boy called Nnamdi Kanu. Nobody knows his address in
UK. Nobody knows where he works. Nobody knows the business he does.
"Nobody knows his
qualifications. Such persona non grata who has no antecedent and pedigree
cannot represent or lead Igbos.
"He is not qualified to
speak for the Igbos. He came from nowhere and lured pure-water sellers,
mechanics, bus-conductors, Ikoku spare-parts traders, bricklayers, commercial
bus and taxi drivers, hawkers, GSM repairers and other petty traders and
artisans out of their source of livelihood into senseless activity called
'Biafra Agitation'.
"Now, lives had been lost. Some people
have been killed. What have they now gained?!
"Those who are calling for
crisis, fanning the embers of war with the belief that USA, UK and UN will come
to their rescue/support should go and ask Libya, Sudan, Eritrea, Rwanda etc
what UN did for them in their times of crises?"

The unPius Pius, must you know?
ReplyDeleteThank you Mr priest but those mechanics, hawkers and pure water sellers are not lesser human beings. If the government of the land has done a single thing to better the lives of these people, perhaps they wouldn't bother listening to Nnamdi kanu but they did because everything Nnamdi kanu said, made sense to them and your fucking government feels comfortable seeing them in their suffering. It's easy to set up an army of terror to destroy this fucking country. How did boko haram recruit their army? From the pool of the lots that you think do not Matter. The down trodden, the traffic hawkers, the mechanics, the bunch of nobodies of the society.
ReplyDeleteI know u will not reason because u are already brainwashed. USA, UK, UN will not come to ur aid when d chips are down. Enough is enough for d wise.
Deletethen don't hold Nigeria to ransom, hold your governors that you keep voting in.. Join the winning team, you people won't. Have you seen the works done in the south west by APC governors, they are not known for stomach infrastructure unlike your governors. Your people were in power for over 10 years, but there was no agitation for change..
DeleteThis means that Kanu is a kidnapper arm rubber, all this criminals are his boys
ReplyDeleteWe should all be mindful of how we insult others. I have been in Yoruba land for the past seven years l know the standard of living here and l cotegoritically tell it is not higher than that of the east. Check poverty indices in Nigeria .There are more suffering here, hunger diseases and high cost of health care than are obtainable in the east. In life everyone chooses to take a course and die for what he or she believes in.Nnamdi Kanu status today was made possible by the reactions of Nigeria government. They could have ignored him.
