African leaders have failed to understand that white people protect only white interest and that they have their own white people back in their countries of Europe and America to take care of first, before allowing any leftover crumbs to fall for other people including the overly dependent Africans. This is the reason no substantial progress has been made in Africa as the continent has been left behind holding the beggarly plate for such a long time and continuing till today. Why has Britain not helped Nigeria and other of its former colonies become power sufficient or don't they know how to build power stations? Why has Britain not helped Nigeria develop its infrastructures or is Britain not developed, thus showing that they have the technical knowhow.
But no, freeing Nigeria from its vestiges and clutches is not in their plan as that will be detrimental to their overall objective of maintaining their proboscis permanently fixed on Nigeria's natural resources. They need to continue feeding their own people as well as have a Nigeria buying market for the continuous dumping of their manufactured products including generators, which keep the manufacturing industries in their country busily churning and providing jobs for their own citizens.
So the incentive is not there for Britain to actually want to see Nigeria develop its full potentials and is steadily working as hard as they can to continuously throw spanner in the wheel of Nigeria any time something positive wants to rear its head in Nigeria. They sponsored the civil war of 1967 through 1970 and participated in the devastation of Biafrans which Nigeria is yet to recover from. They have been subverting government and policies ever since to keep a lid on Nigeria's development effort. Now, they are in the process of igniting another civil war by insisting that Nigerians cannot freely and peacefully determine their way forward and through a referendum on whether their co-existence has been beneficial far to warrant extending it or to just peacefully yield to their disparate nationalities.
Britain seceded from the European Union; Scotland is agitating for separation from the United Kingdom and many other European nations are headed in this direction including Catalonia which is desirous of parting ways with Spain. It is also interesting that Britain has a misery population of about 68 million people and Biafra easily commands a population of approximately 75 million people. But Britain is lording it over the entire Nigeria with a population of over 220 million people and insisting that Nigeria must remain as one entity. ICHEOKU says on whose authority does 10 Downing Street act and who made them the arbiter of what goes on in Nigeria, especially since Nigeria is an independent country.
But a bunch of servile marauders who see white people as gods who must be obeyed are in charge of affairs, hence their continuous submission to the will of 10 Downing Street as conveyed by their High Commissioner to Nigeria. Some of these things are so reprehensibly meddlesome that no civilized, truly independent country would accept them. Speaking of the current British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Catriona Wendy Campbell Lang and what she said about Nigeria's only option being 2023. Imagine such a foreigner insisting on the way Nigerians must live and conduct their affairs, yet her diplomatic paper has not been revoked and have her deported out of the country.
The British High Commissioner should be reminded of her role as her country's representative in Nigeria and must not be allowed or heard or seen to meddle in purely Nigeria's domestic affairs matters. She cannot be allowed to become a dictator on how Nigerians must conduct themselves including whether they can even continue to live together as one. Her saying no to peaceful agitation must not be tolerated as every nationality in the world has a right to determine how they want to live their lives. Therefore, she must back off from her current meddling in the agitation for self governance by Biafra and Oduduwa as well as other ethnic nationalities in Nigeria, who desire to strike out on their own and chart their different course going forward.
She went t Port Harcourt to dissuade Rivers States from signing up to the Biafra agitation and also successfully cajoled Governor Nyesom Wike and obtained hits consent o stand against Biafra agitation and ensure that the free oil from Rivers States will continue to flow to Britain uninhibited. Thereafter, she got the temerity to publicly speak out that Nigeria MUST remain one indivisible country and that 2023 is sacrosanct. ICHEOKU says on whose authority does she speak or did Nigeria not severe the umbilical cord of colonialism from then Great Britain in 1960 which it followed up in 1963 with cutting ties with the British monarchy headship of Nigeria through republicanism.
So why must this woman feel that she still have the right to dictate to Nigerians on their way forward when her predecessor in office Paul Arkwright had previously assured that Britain's relationship with Nigeria has changed from the past "parenting" mode to now a new equal hpartnership. Did she not get nor read the handover note e left or was that why 10 Downing Street removed the former fella and sent her to remind Nigerians that they are still subservient to Britain and must always listen whenever the British talks. Why is Nigeria still behaving in a manner which suggests that 1960 did not happen and that they are still beholden to 10 Downing Street when other countries similarly colonized by Britain like India and Pakistan have since moved on.
Why is Nigeria so moronic not to learn and emulate other countries which are progressively moving forward. Why is the country not utilizing its huge human capital which can compete with the best anywhere in the world to secure the country's future, instead of allowing themselves to be led by the nose by uneducated and uncivilized mallams who kowtow to every British dictates out of timidity. If Scotland constantly votes on their independence from the United Kingdom, why can't Oduduwa and Biafra do the same in respect of Nigeria? Why should this woman arrogate to herself the authority of an administrator in chief and determiner in chief of what is in the best of and for Nigerians.
What happened to the sanctity of Nigeria's internal affairs matter not being subject to any foreign interference and meddling? Can she dare utter such petulance in other more meaningful countries with serious leaders? Can she even tell Scottish people such arrant nonsense over their continuing restiveness in their association in United Kingdom. Why has her diplomatic immunity not been revoked and have her expelled from Nigeria, deported back to her own country. What manner of clueless and linguine spine leaders are managing the affairs of Nigeria that still allowed this woman to remain in Nigeria following her latest utterances including that it is 2023 or nothing at all. ICHEOKU says really?
It must be sad to be a Nigerian and sadder that this woman is still in Nigeria as the United Kingdom's High Commissioner after what she said. It is even wrong that she is traveling through Nigeria meeting with governors, chiefs and other leaders of thought when her diplomatic privilege only allows her to interact with the Federal government on diplomatic level only land not mix and mingle with States and other local and domestic authorities. Why is she allowed to conduct internal activities which are not within her designation as her country's representative in Nigeria, only liaising between Aso Rock and 10 Downing Street. She certainly crossed the line and should have since been deported or at least censured by the Nigerian government for meddling in its domestic internal affairs matters. #CallCatrionaLangToOrder.
