Book excerpt: Igbo land isn’t Biafra; Biafra wasn’t Igbo land. Some Igbos seemed intellectually very coarse; excessively dull. “Why, Sir, Sherry is dull, naturally dull; but it must have taken him a great deal of pains to become what we now see him. Such an excess of stupidity, Sir, is not in Nature.” Dr Samuel Johnson “There is Godu oo, chie, chie. Kano Nnamdi, KFC chef, you waka come from London. Nnamdi, are you an anarchist or a ‘Faka?’” Dame Patience Faka Goodluck Jonathan paraphrased. Before secession some Igbos must make sure that there is plenty of grub, and not lament blockade later; necessity may suspend the law, again. “You can always tell an old soldier by the inside of his holsters and cartridge boxes. The young ones carry pistols and cartridges; the old ones, grub.” George Bernard Shaw “Every true Biafran must love Biafra, must have faith in Biafra and its people, and must strive for its greater unity. He must find his salvation here in Biafra. He must be prepared to work for Biafra, to die for Biafra. He must be prepared to defend the sovereignty of Biafra wherever and by whomsoever it is challenged.” Comical Col. Emeka Ojukwu Comical Col. Emeka Ojukwu neither died for Biafra nor in Biafra; did he lie to cretins (not all)? “Beware that you do not despise a single one of these little ones. For I tell you that in heaven their angels are always in the presence of my heavenly father.” The Good Shepherd The best interest of children should be at the forefront of all actions of all governments, and their foreseeable future needs should be the cornerstone of all their plans. Reasoning and vision are unbounded; if the Good Shepherd’s is infinite, He must be who He says He is.
