SURELY !!! MORNING MUST COME

THE DARKER THE NIGHT , THE NEARER THE DAWN

BY AGADA IKECHUKWU

In the words of some great thinkers ; Albert Einstein and Napoleon Bonaparte , it said and I quote “ The true sign of intelligence is not knowledge but imagination” . “Never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake”.

Straightforwardly , I sensed a lot of wisdom in the above quotes predictably because such statements are gifted to nations during challenging times and such trying times throws up great leaders.

It is now heavenly clear that the greatest enemy metre of Ndi Igbo may not only read hearts and souls soaked with the vinegar of vengeance , inhumanity , hatred , unforgiveness as decorated in the lives of the murderous Hausa-Fulani diabolical oligarchs and megalomania but Igbo elected representatives. This crystallizes that Igbos should not worry much about their destined marital children of Danfodio enemies but those who hug , dine and wine with them as friends , brothers and sisters who have unconsciously sold their fate egocentrically in similitude with Judas Iscariot by romanticizing and fabricating lies to project their intents.

The euphoria that greeted the military siege of South Eastern states microscopically Abia State has magnified the clannish , tribal and dictatorial leadership qualities of President Muhammadu Buhari before the world considering the excruciating pangs of the notorious military interregnum.

Permit me to say that the conspiratorial bat silence and proxy financing of enmity among some southeastern   elected representatives excreted the despicable , shameful and condemnable lawless perfidy of the barrack men python dancing. 

One may be shifted to say that the deliberate provocation by the military is  a disguised sinister plot to achieve the october 1 quit notice through the back door. I have a strong suspicion that the President is indirectly python dancing to the terms and conditions brandished by the “Arewa Groups” before terminating their quit notice using the khaki men.

The military invasion is crafted to weaken the resolve and dampen the “ Restructuring” morale of the crusaders  confronting the decisions of the government , knowing full well that Igbos are the principal backers and supporters of “Restructuring” in the event of failed separatist agitations. It is politically designed to equate IPOB with the likes of Boko Haram , ISIS etc to showcase them to the international community as a terrorist organisation thereby discrediting their international appeal from sympathetic western nations. This plan paid off as IPOB had been declared a terrorist group by the Nigerian Security Agencies.

I have the presentiment that the tensed situation in Abia State was the brainchild of some southeastern governors who are afraid of impending political defeat and exile as a result of the towering domineering influence of the IPOB group.

One thing is sure , this season too shall pass , it is incumbent on us as men and women of good conscience to preach peace and unity across the different ethnic divides to avoid the ticking hydrogen bomb from going off.

Let us not forget to observe a minute silence for the unjustly murdered innocents who were forcefully made to go the way of all men via the military onslaught that is meant for Boko Haram and Fulani Herders ravaged states.

Never interrupt your adversaries when they err because their mistakes makes you program their defeat. The true test of a great leader is not in knowledge but having the imaginative capacity to discern that “ THE DARKER THE NIGHT , THE NEARER THE DAWN OF A NEW DAY.

It can never be darker than the present again , the future is bright , therefore , it’s time for us to shout “HOSANNA” for the light has come.

GOD BLESS YOU
