Toyin,

Ogbu only said what some of us have been saying.

I am pro Biafra, the late Dr. Ikedife and Professor Nwala variant, not the Kanu and the Uwazuruike variant.

If the Kanu and Uwazuruike variant happen(very unlikely), I will go on exile.

If you witness first hand the way these people behave in their areas of influence, you would not want to have anything to do with their agitation.

I have written so many articles in the National Dailies such as the Guardian, Punch, Saharareporters etc, articles that are very scathingly critical of the FG, the marauding herdsmen and others. I've taken on powerful politicians and institutions. During 'Operation Python Dance', I reached out to every Southeast governors and Senators urging them to do something to save the situation. The delay by the governors to act forced me to publish all their personal phone numbers for Igbo youths to bombard them with protest calls and SMS.
In all of these, I HAVE NEVER RECEIVED ANY DEATH THREAT. The worst I received was a public statement by one of the governors that I be arrested which wasn't even carried out. The other one was when someone working in Garba Shehu's office sent me some silly message following my viral article, "In Defence Of Jonathan" which Shehu responded to.
But here, JUST BECAUSE I CONDEMNED A BARBARIC VIDEO WHERE AN IGBO MAN HAD HIS PENI.S MUTILATED BY FELLOW IGBOS BASED ON A MERE ALLEGATION OF BEING A SABOTEUR, I got this from this person this afternoon.
I decided to share this not to elicit pity from anyone but because I want you all who are supporting this new Boko Haramic behaviour of Igbos killing and maiming fellow Igbos over allegation of Sabo to see how the killers arrive at the conclusion that their victims are Sabo.
The post over which this guy sent me this threat was made last night and it is still on my wall. In it, I only condemned the practice of visiting bestiality and savagery on fellow Igbos for allegedly being Sabo, a word so badly misused and misunderstood by so many of the users.
A man can only be a Sabo when he pretends to belong to a group while destroying that same group from within. There is nothing Sabo-ic about an Igbo man condemning beastly behaviour from a fellow Igbo.
Let me repeat, JUST FOR THE RECORD, the Biafra agitation is a noble cause, a people's quest for freedom from a state that has refused to work. That Nigeria is not working is not a subject of argument. But what some of our people are doing in the name of Biafra is nothing short of Boko Haramic. You cannot call Nigeria a Jungle and say you want to leave only to turn around and perpetrate exactly the same lawless savagery and barbarity which you accuse Nigeria of.
Those of you supporting this thinking you are supporting Biafra agitation, please have a rethink if you really care about Ala-Igbo and Ndigbo. Those of you keeping quiet out of fear and those making subtle justification for this bestiality, please have a rethink, not for the sake of Charles Ogbu but for the sake of our noble ancestry. You can support Biafra agitation and still condemn spilling of the blood of innocent Igbos over unproven allegation of Sabo. If you have sat and interacted with notable Igbo patriots, people like Chief Mbazulike Amechi, the only surviving member of the first Republic, Gen. Alexander Madiebo who wrote "The Nigerian Revolution And The Biafran Civil War" etc just as I have, you'd understand that this part we are treading will only end in tears for Ala-Igbo.
I'm worried, not for myself (not at all) but for Ala-Igbo and Ndigbo. The future is not looking so good at all.
Ndigbo, nakwanu echeki!

Very sad, Chidi.

They are spoiling what is valuable in their mission.

Thanks.
