This is not to condemn Sowore’s protest
But to tell him that we are not cows
I know a political gambit when I see one
A toad doesnt make an afternoon dash in vain
The envy of Obi will drive many mad
They want a piece that fiercely loyal followership
They want to be in the equation
They dont mind some disruption
Omoyele Sowore is gunning for more than Kanu’s human rights
Otherwise he would also be speaking for the victims too
Otherwise he wouldnt be brazenly denying the murders and arsons and hate speeches attributable to Kanu’s IPOB
A man who will never join other opposition politicians to do anything no matter how beneficial to our democracy
Is now cajoling and blackmailing all of them into queueing behind him to pursue his pet project
The government should settle the IPOB matter politically and set out the strict conditions for pardons and amnesties
These conditions must include documenting victims and their losses
It must include apologies, repentance and restitution
The victims should meet the perpetrators and masterminds of these henious crimes
True justice must he victim centered
Someone should tell Sowire that he might think he is under water but we can see his back clearly
How come Sowore who said nothing all those years when Nnamdi Kanu was acting Kim Jung Un with lives of poor Igbos, now come to milk glory
When the Igbo were being slaughtered by the decrees of the supreme leader Sowore was asleep right?
When Finland jailed Simon Ekpa Sowore said nothing . It wasn’t his business
A man who wants to be president ought to know that
That is IPOB matter is a bone that must be chewed before its swallowed
Otherwise it will lacerate the throat
Someone should tell him that anyone discussing a solution to this matter without embracing the truth and the victims , repentance and reconciliation is an attention seeking chalartan.
All the cards must be on the table
Orsu Ihetekwa is still desolate
The bones of Igbo men and women cannibalised by Ipob freedom fighters still litter the village .😭
Kanu is a supreme leader
He doesn’t seek anybody counsel
Nobody matters to him
But to resolve this issue and help him regain freedom
The Igbo need to have a conversation
