ANTHONY ENAHORO IS DEAD!

The once chairman and face of NADECO, a group which gave the midget of Kano Sani Abacha hell and forced him into a killing frenzy of innocent Nigerians; the man reputed to have moved the motion for Nigeria's independence, Anthony Eromosele Enahoro is dead.

A foremost politician, statesman and fearless advocate for democracy, partly tainted by his participation in the criminal starvation of the people of Biafra, including pregnant women, infants and children during the civil war conducted by the genocidal Yakubu Gowon led federal government of Nigeria, died an unhappy and unfulfilled man. His dreams of a viable Nigeria where minority rights are recognized by the majority, where citizens rights are respected, where there is equal opportunity for all and where things are so well ordered that security, power, good roads, employment and a buoyant economy moves like a well-oiled machine eluded him.


Icheoku is convinced that Anthony Eromosele Enahoro passed on also regretting his role in the sabotage of the Biafran effort, just like General Alani Akirinade similarly regretted his participation in aborting the Biafran dream. But the judgment is mine says the Lord and Icheoku wishes Pa Enahoro a speedy trial before the Almighty for his sins of commission and omission while he held sway in Nigeria. Enahoro was 87years old and died of old age related natural causes, although he had a debilitating stroke that left him in comatose few weeks ago from which he never recovered. Enahoro was survived by his family and friends; Nigeria will miss his virile 'force-majure' contribution and participation in Nigeria politics. Adieu Enahoro!
