From the creation of this country called Nigeria, Arewa people have proven to be the hookworm that is threatening the peace of the marriage between Biafra, Oduduwa and Arewa. To make it work, Biafra as a peaceful nation has put in so much in order to please the people they were forced to live with but to no avail, this marriage has been full of pretence until the day it expired.

Now that Biafra is about to return to her land to live as they were before the coming of the British and forceful amalgamation by Frederick Lugard in 1914. The Arewa youths headed by a well-known terrorist called Yerima Shettima is threatening to bring a fight to the doorstep of Biafra.

Because of the rate of oneness in Biafrans over the restoration of the sovereign state of Biafra, Arewa youths issued a threat that Biafrans should leave their part of the country within three months (3months) or face the music they will play. This threat was not denied, instead, they are reviewing it on daily basis. The so-called leaders of the old eastern region did nothing about it. The security agents whose job is to protect lives and properties of citizens are suddenly deaf and dumb because they believe Arewa people own the country and nobody can stop them.

Yerima Shettima said that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is a terrorist and they (Arewa) will do everything to make him pay, that he can't go free. The question still remains, are the Arewa youths the government? These Arewa youths are they Boko Haram or Fulani herdsmen who have been killing Biafrans and nobody has been bold enough to say anything to stop them.

Now Mazi Nnamdi Kanu came out to fight for the freedom of

Biafrans, they have sworn to make the world see him as a terrorist. What kind of country are we living in? Since a particular people are not welcomed in the country why can't they be allowed to go? You gave them an ultimatum to vacate your area, and as they want to go, you choose to attack them because the government gives you free hand to do whatever pleases you. But remember that this 2017 is not 1967-1970 when you (Arewa) and Yoruba with the help and support of Britain, Russia and all Arab countries killed us.

Biafrans have always been a peaceful and loving people, and their leader Mazi Nnamdi Kanu has proven to be a noble man. Biafra as a law-abiding nation is calling on the world to take note of this aggression against us. We have suffered enough in the hands of these people we were forced to be with; that we choose to be peaceful doesn't mean we cannot return aggression for aggression if that is the only way out. We call on the government to rise up to their duty and call these people to order without any form of fear before it is too late.

Biafrans are ready to go home, and they have a good leader who will lead them home safely. We the Biafrans have sworn to put a stop to this unhappy marriage or we die trying. God bless Biafra.
