In recent weeks, power blackout has been the concern
of many Ghanaians. But Ghana President, John Mahama came out on Wednesday, July
6, to explain what was going on in the West African country. He attributed it to
lack of petroleum product supplies from the dying country called Nigeria.
His explanation was that sabotage of oil terminals
in Nigeria occasioned delay in the supply of crude oil to his country, and that
the ones ordered last month (June) had not been supplied to Ghana, which was
responsible for power outages in many parts of the country. “Because of
sabotage in Nigeria on the terminals, crude oil that we ordered last month has
not arrived; and so, it has created some generational problem for us.”
Methinks that the time has come when African leaders
should begin to look at issues in the continent, especially as it concerns
Biafrans, with the rightness of actions of their colleagues. There is no reason
why the Ghana President should regurgitate words and ideas from dubious Nigeria
that run contrary to international law and rights of individuals and indigenous
peoples.
Particularly on the issues of indigenous people of Biafra,
or Niger Delta as many would like to see it, Mahama should get his facts right
and stop using dubious words and terms that emanate from Nigeria’s pernicious ruling
houses, which paper over the real issues. He should look at the issue with the
eye of an educated and civilised African and stop peeping through the prism of
such illiterates as Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerian Presidne and Obasanjo, the malevolent
voodoo master.
Nigeria Delta Avengers (NDA) is not sabotaging our
oil terminals. They are freedom fighters who are fighting to free their land
and people from internal colonisers. They are only saying to some criminal and
pernicious neighbors to leave (who are masquerading under what they call
one-Nigeria) steal their resources and enslave them in their land.
If Britain had the right to do so with neighbours
who were not even pernicious criminals like Nigeria and its government
functionaries, why not Biafrans, who had for more than 100 years been raped by
criminal and pernicious neigbours? We are talking of neighbours who are so
wicked and virulent that more than 6 million Biafrans have been butchered by
them in the last 100 years in their quest to steal Biafran resources. They will
go no further.
Most of all, Mahama should make contact with owners of
the petroleum resources that his country is using to generate its power. The resources
belong to Biafrans, not to Fulanis of Northern Nigeria, or Yorubas of western
Nigeria. Those are people are criminals that have deployed the dubious Nigerian
system to ravage and steal Biafraland dry.
The owners have come to take what rightly belongs to
them. They are not sabotaging anything. Instead, they are preventing criminals
and bloodsuckers from laying their filthy hands on their resources. Ghana and
all other African countries, and peoples of the world are free to enjoy the
God-given resources of Biafraland, but they must do so legitimately. They must
meet the owners of the resources. The owners are Ibibios, Ijaws, Ibo, Efik,
Urhobo, and several other Biafran peoples; anyone who wants the resources in
their lands must strike agreements with them. simple!
