IN THE WAKE OF ONE MILLION MARCH TODAY I HAVE THIS TO SAY!!!
ANALYSIS!!
A peaceful protest in over 88 countries of the world,
Over 20 million South Eastern Nigerian youths scattered across the world plus their sympathizers.
Carrying placards with different inscriptions for freedom and visiting all seat of power (embassy, high commission, UN, AU)
A radio with voice and massive frequency reaching to over 20 million people in South East Nigeria.
A conscientious youth movement receiving attention across the world.
A social media (Facebook, Twitter) movement with over 10 million followers.
A group of intellectuals who understand better but are using a wrong approach and format.
A force that can awaken modern day democracy and south east industrial and development revolution.
MY OPINION!!!!
Today's youth with misplaced priorities,
In today's world when countries are forming a synergy in economic alliance, FOREX, technology with wealth transfer alliance to better their citizens life.
A high percentage of South East youths are agitating for independence instead of holding their governors, senators and political class at ransom to deliver their share of the countries collective wealth.
This movement would have stopped governors from looting the treasury and chased away political god fatherism from South East Nigeria.
Blocked governors lodge and government house and demand workers salaries to be paid. Some states are still owing till date.
Occupy NASS and demand they take pay cut and publish their constituency project allowance and what they intend doing with it.
Request the FG to reverse the ban on rice importation when Anambra state alone with other investors have poured 3 billion dollars into rice farming that will create employment opportunity.
Occupy all state governors office until they change their cars to made in Nigeria cars. (A governor in SE Nigeria have at least 10 cars in his convoy, plus 20 commissioners and another 20 house of assembly members). So a state can procure 500 of such cars easily and distribute across.
Sensitize the youths against kidnapping and hooliganism.
Agitate for a youth to lead the nation.
Only if this agitation is for "Good Governance" in the South East Nigeria, please count me as a follower and contributor in such cause.
In South East Nigeria a governor earned about 48 billion naira for security votes for 8 years, that is 500m naira monthly.
48 billion naira can build one of the following:
A world class power generating plant for his commercial cities in his state.
A world class research institute for his gifted scholars travelling all over the world in search for quality education.
A world class industry employing over 500 citizens direct employment and another 1000 indirect employment.
A world class health care facility / hospital equipped with modern equipment to take care of the sick population.
This movement can say capital NO to security vote.
This movement can sensitize the youths against drug peddling and get rich quick syndrome.
This movement can stop the way and manner our youths are heading to countries all over the world in search for greener pastures and doing all sorts of illegal business to survive.
Please IPOB and MASSOB I am pleading with you to use your popularity for a cause that will better humanity in South East Nigeria, change campaign format because this particular method will not lead us to anywhere.
We can become the following in a decade if we get it right and elect selfless leaders who can only take home their salaries and allowances which is huge enough to make them rich if they invest it back to the society and use the states IGR and FG allocation to work for our common goal.
Nigerian Japan Technology (Nnewi)
Nigerian China / Dubai Commercial (Abba, Owerri, Onitsha)
Nigerian London Seat of Modern Administration (Enugu / Umuahia)
Nigerian India / South Korea Agricultural Hub (Ebonyi)
Nigerian Carribean Tourism (River Niger and its Tributaries, Oguta, Owerri).
We can name them and use our rain forest zone blessing to create nature at its best.
God Bless Ndi Igbo!!!!!!!, God Bless Nigeria!!!!!!
