The Biafra of My Dreams (Revisited)

  On the 30th of May 1967, the late Lieutenant-Colonel Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu declared the Republic of Biafra as a secessionist state from Nigeria. This sparked off the Nigerian civil war that lasted from the 7th of July 1967 until January 1970. Fortunately or unfortunately, at the end of the war, Biafra was not to be. It is no news that Nigeria, as it is, was born out of the selfish desires of the British for easier control of their interests across the different regions of the country with oil being the most important, and as it were the Nigerian Government was backed militarily by the British in their quest to retain the oil-rich Biafran region. The truth is that if Nigeria had no oil, or if the bulk of the oil was found elsewhere but the southern region, or if the southern region had made Shell/BP a better deal than they had with Nigeria, Biafra would have been in existence today. The agitation for Biafra in Ojukwu’s time was mainly as a result of the massacre of Easterners in

On Kemen And Apostle Suleman: How Strong Is Your Opinion?

Within the last two weeks or so, the Nigerian ‘internetosphere’ has been rife with happenings in the Big Brother Nigeria reality TV show as it concerns Kemen, and the ‘private’ life of Apostle Johnson Suleman. This isn’t the type of topic I would typically discuss especially as the Big Brother show isn’t my thing and because I have always regarded Suleman with some scepticism from the very first time I saw him preach. A lot has been said and written about Kemen and Suleman already, but these have either been to report the stories, or defend/support the accused; therefore, I am not going down those routes. Today, however, I will beam the light on those Nigerians who hold and have shared rather strong opinions about these men.
