ICHEOKU says kudos to Nollywood star Chief Chiwetalu Agu for using his acting platform to add his voice to the agitation for an independent State of Biafra. He displayed an exemplary courage worthy of emulating by everyone, using whatever platform they have to put the word across that Biafra is indeed what the majority of the people of Southeast Nigeria truly want.
Such a display of uncommon courage will help IPOB's leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu with the Biafra struggle. It will show that the agitation is deeply rooted and that majority of the people are in full support of it; an independent homeland where they can freely live, aspire, prosper and safe from the frequent slaughtering by Fulani terrorist herdsmen simply because of their faith in God Almighty and their desire for freedom from a suffocating Fulani Islamists hegemony. Well done High Chief.
FYI: What Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari's government "proscribed" was IPOB but not Biafra. It also did not ban the wearing of any clothing that looks like or have any connotation of Biafra. The rising sun symbol or red, black and green colors are not exclusive Biafra as to suggest that anybody wearing a design based on them is promoting IPOB. They are not IPOB nor Biafra insignia or attire or regalia. While IPOB is Biafra, Biafra is not IPOB. Biafra is bigger and larger than IPOB as IPOB is but one huge branch of the Biafra tree. The High Chief should approach a court for these clarifications to be pronounced on.
