Bianca Ojukwu Lends Her Voice To The Biafran Agitation

#Nigeria

Bianca Ojukwu, the wife of late Biafra, chief of Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwa, said there was no justification for categorizing the indigenous people of Biafra, the IPOB as a terrorist organization of the Nigerian army, as well as its ban on the south - the chief governors. Mrs Bianca Ojukwu also said that each Igbo son and daughter should condemn the IPOB categorization as a terrorist organization .
Dialogue remains a better way of calming the agitation of especially the Igbo youths whom she said have continued to become disillusioned with the Nigerian collective existence, saying surely another spring shall rise, in God’s own time.
Ndigbo bear a painful historical burden. We lost almost 3 million of our people, almost a quarter of our population at the time between 1966 and 1970 in our battle for survival. Global and Regional Organisations did nothing; the world superpowers and most foreign governments looked the other way…and little has changed since then.
We owe it to the memory of those who we loved and lost, who were let down by those who could have come to their rescue, and who paid the supreme price in our battle for survival to say NEVER AGAIN. OZOEMENA.
This is the time to apply the brakes. We must impress it upon our youth, who have become disillusioned and have lost hope in our collective existence in a union in which they feel increasingly excluded and isolated, the need to tread with caution. There is need to explore other avenues, and the doors must never be shut against dialogue.
Surely another spring shall rise, in God’s own time , But what every onye Igbo must rise up against is this categorization of IPOB or any other pro Biafra movements which are not armed militias as terrorist organizations, and the increased military presence in the South East.
