We Must Change The Narrative For Good- Ohanaeze Youth President

December 23, 2020

In my 12 years participation in Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) before I became the president, I saw an organization that belong to Ndigbo but it doesn’t serve the Interest of Ndigbo. I took a decisions that I must be the president to change the Narrative.

I discovered that the organization was existing on radio and pages of news papers including in the pocket of few youths who held it as their personal affair.

I was among those who complained about the activities of Ohanaeze Ndigbo and Igbo political office holders at large. But at a time I developed a thick-Skin and a philosophy of life that the best way to stop a reckless driver who refused to take correction and drive carefully to save the lives of the passengers is to go and learn how to drive and kick the reckless driver out of the Steering. As i developed a thick-skin, i passionately joined Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) with target to reform it and also reform Ohanaeze Ndigbo that was in control of few unpatriotic rulers and political profiteers.

This is exactly what i did at last National Convention of Ohanaeze Youth Council OYC held at Enugu and i emerged as the 4th National president of the Council.
I want to inform you today that any patriotic progressive Igbo youth reading this now are among the leaders we look up to that will impact on the new Igbo generation.

Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) is the Apex sociocultural organization of all Igbo youths, to promote sociocultural, political cum economic development in Igbo land. At the Inception of Ohanaeze in 1976 when it was Igbo Union until 1979 it was renamed Ohanaeze Ndigbo. Until 1997 there was no Youth body of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, but at the peak of the tenure of Justice Eze Ozobu of blessed Memory in 1998 Some pro- Igbo student’s Activist then approached Ohanaeze Ndigbo led by Justice Eze Ozobu to establish the Youth body of Ohanaeze Ndigbo. Immediately Justice Eze Ozobu who solely believe in successional leadership approved the Establishment of “OHANAEZE YOUTH COUNCIL (OYC) and Comrade Nnandi Nwokeocha became the National president, who held the position for three consecutive times, followed by Comrade Frank Orji from Abia who came in at the 2010 National Convention. In 2014 another National Convention was held and Comrade Chukwudi Anachuna from Anambra became the National President. Another National Convention was held in 2019 when Comrade Igboayaka O Igboayaka from Imo emerged the National president.

At the creation of Committees in Ohanaeze Ndigbo ” Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Wing Committee, Ohanaeze Ndigbo Women Wing Committee and other Committees)Wing was created. It is important to note that OHANAEZE YOUTH COUNCIL(OYC) remain in its statue as Apex youth body of Igbo Youths. Even due the creation of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Wing, was created later to subdue the youths and to have total control in the affairs of the youths, because Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) under those youths activist wasn’t following Ohanaeze Ndigbo Sheepishly,therefore they saw the need to create Ohanaeze Ndigbo Youth Wing that will be singing their praise also eulogise their politicians.

Nwanne a new history was made as i elected the National president Ohanaeze Youth Council OYC on 11th May 2019 and i have set plans to achieve my vision. At inception of my emergence I initiated the following National Executive Directorates in Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) which was approved by the (NEC) of the Council.

1. Directorate of Entrepreneurship & Empowerment
2. Directorate Culture and Ethical promotion
3. Directorate of Students & Gender Affairs
4. Directorate of Research and Documentation
5. Directorate of Strategy & Implementation for Functional Seaport
6. Directorate of Political Strategy and Engagement.
7. Directorate of Diaspora’s Affairs & Trade/Investment
8. Directorate For Legal Affairs
9. Directorate Contact & Mobilization
10. Directorate of Rehabilitation & Resettlement
11. Directorate of Event and Program
12. Directorate of Medical & Sports
13. Directorate of Transport
14. Directorate of physically Challenge
15. Directorate of Intelligence & Special Duties.
16. Directorate of Commence & Media Trading.

The above National Directorates needs credible youths that will constitute the Directorates. I and my executives are ready to work and deliver but we need youths that are better than Us. I am not the president because I am the best, I am the president because I had the opportunity and the passion to serve.

It’s my vision to make the Council a membership organization, first in history i initiated the need for the council to have membership card. I also started constituting state executives and branch executives with conventions/congresses unlike before what exist is only National Executives.

Today i have conducted convention in Delta, Enugu, Ebonyi, and congress in Imo, Anambra, Rivers and Abia. Consequently, my plan is to establish the leadership of the Council in all LGA’s and Communities of Igbo extraction. This is the only way Igbo youths can speak in One Voice, and take over our land from the hand of political profiteers.

Today we are changing the narrative in Ohanaeze Ndigbo, what we seeing today in Ohanaeze Ndigbo is only “EZE” the “OHA” has not been participating. Ohanaeze Ndigbo became a secret society of micro scopic few. But there will a new rebirth of Ohanaeze Ndigbo in 2021, this why i became the president of Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) to ensure that “OHA” are involve and know what’s happening Ohanaeze Ndigbo unlike before.

OUR MISSION
Nwanne we must now hold our Igbo political office holders, Governors, Senators, Reps, ministers etc responsible. Hope you remember that charity begins at home?
They are mostly responsible for the colossal leadership failure we had in Igbo. Obviously, it’s not totally the Hausa/Fulani as we assumed over the years.. The Present Igbo political office holders and leadersip of Ohanaeze Ndigbo constitute 75% cause of marginalization and poor leadership we have experienced in Igbo land.

Our target is to mobilize Igbo Youths for social re-engineering geared towardsthe following mission/ objectives

1.. Functional Seaport in Igbo land.

(A) Azumini (blue River) is 30 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean( strategically located connecting Rivers State, Akwaibom State, and Abia State)
(B) Obeaku- Ndoki Is 25 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean.

(C) Oseakwa (River Ulasi) Ihiala Anambra that linked to Osemoto Oguta River Imo State Is only18 nautical to Atlantic Ocean with 20m deep without dredging. Do you know that Ulasi is the deepest River in Nigeria, (Strategically located connecting Anambra Imo, Delta, Beyelsa and Enugu)

(D) Ibaka Akwaibom Is 30 nautical mile to Atlantic Ocean.

Why do we have Moribund Seaports in Igbo land? It’s is a deliberate orchestrated conspiracy, which the Northern political Mafians and Yorubas conspired and declare that Niger Delta Area is unsafe for Importation and exportation of goods. Do you know that 98% of agitation in Niger Delta as regards militancy is sponsored by Oil companies in collaboration with the Northern Mafians?

Now they are playing another game for States to manage their own solid minerals. This is a pure conspiracy for the Northern states that have gold to manage their gold, while the liquid mineral in Igbo land wilbe managed by FG.

(E) Calabar is 45 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean.

(F) Onne is 50 natural miles to Atlantic Ocean.

(G) Bonny Is 45 nautical miles to Atlantic Ocean.
*A functional seaport is the only way to transform ala Igbo to become the economic hub of West Africa.
*The economic destiny of Ndi Igbo lies in Maritime business..
* Ndi Igbo must rise now to seek for economic survival.
* The sociopolitical cum economic survival of Ndi Igbo lies on the new generational leaders (The Youths)
There is a deliberate conspiracy to undermine economic development in Igbo land, actually we’re not landlocked. We must break this conspiracy and make Ala Igbo a prosperous land in Africa.
If we have functional seaports in Igbo land, Igbo business men can feed and cloth a senators.

2. Functional International Standard Airport( Dr. Sam Mbakwe administration built Imo Airport, that Airport was built by collective effort of Old Imo State people, traders, workers, students etc.

3. Connecting Ala Igbo to Modern Railway( all the cities in Igboland, Portharcourt, Aba, Nnewi, Asaba, Orlu, Okigwe, Umuahia, Onitcha, Obigbo, Ikwerre, Enugu, Nsukka, Afigbo, Owerri, Abakiliki, Calabar, Ibaka etc

4. Connecting Ala Igbo to National Electric Grid (for industrial revolution)
* lack of National Electric Grid has made no single company to survive in Igbo land. This has resulted to loss of human capital flight in Igbo land.

5. Connecting Ala Igbo to Industrial Gas Pipeline( Ala Igbo is the Highest depositors of Gas in Nigeria) Imo, Enugu and Ebonyi

6. A missive campaign/ political consultative engagement for the Re-opening of department of Chemical Engineering at UNN that was shutdown since 1970 after the war. ( the best department in African and Among 10th best Department in the world in Early 60’s)

7. A massive Campaign/ political consultative engagement to construct the federal road that lead to Abuja, from Anambra Otuocha/ Nmiata to kogi by extension to Abuja(only 3hrs drive from the Eastern Nigeria to Abuja)

We must Kindly disregard the conspiracy of exclusive list, the only fact in the exclusive list is the printing of currency which the state can’t do, but any other item there can be executed by the state. If state government can build federal roads and seek refund from federal government, the same state government can seek dredging our potential Seaports, Ring inter-state road of Igbo extraction, build power station, converting of waste through building recycling industrial that can create job and generate electricity, creation of new micro and mini cities in Igbo States by attract new infrastructural development in rural Area like Banks, Schools, hospital, markets and small scale industries.

Over 50 years we have been hearing about Aba, Nnewi, Onitsha, Awka, Owerri, Asaba, Portharcourt, Calabar, Umuahia, Abakiliki, till today no one can point at any new City established in Igbo land by our Governors. Creating a new City in areas like Ozubulu, Owerre Nta, Umuagwo, Mbaise, Mbano, Ohaozara, Uturu, Ariam, Afikpo, Ekwuluobia, Arondizuogu, Elele, Oguta,etc will be done by an Igbo man not an Hausa/Fulani man. I hope is not a Fulani man is holding creation of such cities?

Nwanne m, not having all these things is not because of Fulani or Nigeria government. We must liberate Igbo land from shackle of bad leadership. We have Governors in Igbo land who are merely Northern servants.
Nwanne m, the masses are the most powerful people on Earth. Ndi Igbo must convert their population into a political capital. Ndigbo constitute 42.8 of total population of Nigeria, the Fulani’s are not more than 7 million people. Therefore, it is mathematically very wrong for minority to marginalize majority, our undoing is poor strategy the inability to have a long term political cum economic project.
Ndigbo must stop this blame game of hausa/fulani and embrace the challenges ahead of us.

Nwanne the problem of Ndigbo are our leaders in Igboland, the youth must rise now and organize themselves to access political power. No Igbo reasonable youth now should expect Development of Ala from the current politicians, they have failed, and if you give them another opportunity, they will fail again. The solution lies in change over.
Join OYC now for this changer over.
Join Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC) to emancipate Ndigbo from shackle of bad leadership and followership
Thank You!
Comr Igboayaka O. Igboayaka is your brother and the National president
Ohanaeze Youth Council(OYC)

CONSTITUTIONAL FORCE MAJEURE: THE 5 DEMANDS SIMPLY STATED

By

December 23, 2020

It is an abomination for managers of a company to take over the business from the owners, then tie up the owners as their captive slaves. But that is what has happened in Nigeria. Over the years, government who are just the managers, have seized power from the owners of the land, that is, the indigenous people. This has created a Nigeria that is the poverty capital of the world, that is retarding rather than developing, that has genocide and terrorism, and that is essentially a failed state. Things are so frightening and unsafe that recently the USA cautioned its citizens against travelling to Nigeria at all. Clearly, Nigeria is not being run for the benefit of its people.

Therefore, the indigenous ethnic nationalities of the Middle Belt and South (NINAS — *Nigerian Indigenous Nationalities Alliance for Self-Determination*) came together and declared a Constitutional Force Majeure (CFM) over a Sovereignty Dispute thus:

*A) When did we submit ourselves, our lands, and our assets into such a Union?*

*B) When did we make for ourselves the 1999 Constitution?*

Therefore, within 90 days starting from midnight of 16th December 2020, the date of Declaring the CFM, the Central Government of Nigeria is to action these 5 Demands:

*1.* Acknowledge declaration of a Constitutional Force Majeure by indigenous peoples of Middle Belt and South.

*2.* Throw away/decommission the repudiated 1999 Constitution.

*3.* Formally announce that general elections in 2023 under this repudiated 1999 Constitution are suspended (will not take place).

*4.* Formally invite people of South and Middle Belt to work out what a new Transitional Government will look like.

*5.* Formally begin a Transitioning Process under that Transitional Government, lasting a specific time period, when firstly the ethnic nationalities in their blocs will carry out their Regional Referendums. Then, from the results of that, negotiate the kind of future the peoples democratically want.

Government are the managers, the people are the owners. Therefore it is expected that government will know its place and action these 5 Demands, which are the wishes of the people. The concerned world is watching, and an orderly process is expected.

Breaking:ASUU suspends nine-month strike

December 23, 2020

The Academic Staff Union of University, on Wednesday, suspended its strike, ending the industrial action that started since March 2020.

ASUU National President, Biodun Ogunyemi, made the announcement during a briefing of the union in Abuja.

He said the suspension of the strike takes effect from Thursday, December 24th, 2020.

It was earlier reported that the Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, on Tuesday, assured Nigerians that the prolonged strike by the varsity lecturers would be called off before January 15.

Ogunyemi also said the lecturers sympathised with students who were also their children, adding that “no amount of sacrifice would be too much to get the matter resolved as long as the government is consistent with its commitments.”

While warning that the union would return to strike without notice if the government fails in meeting its part of the agreement reached with the university lecturers, Ogunyemi noted that the reopening of the schools, considering the COVID-19 pandemic, lies with the Federal Government and Senate.

SECURITY OUTFIT:An Exercise in Futility-A Biafran

By

bvichannel1

-

December 21, 2020

It is incontrovertible that the floating of a security outfit in a country without securing proper approval or clearance from the relevant agencies is nothing but challenging the sovereignty of that State. Floating a security outfit in a Sovereign nation without following the due process is an embarrassing act which no State can tolerate because such act can be interpreted as a challenge to the territorial integrity of the State. Take it or leave it, such is nothing but an invitation for war.

A State whose territorial integrity is threatened to such extent by a clandestine security outfit will never take it lightly but will certainly descend heavily on such security organization to crush it with all its might.

The recent act of floating a Biafran security outfit can be seen as a security threat to the national integrity of Nigeria and an invitation for anarchy, hell and armageddon.

Obviously, if proper actions are not quickly taken to forestall any possible break down of law and order which may crop up in our region due to such brazen act of our brothers, the weak and the innocent could become an unfortunate victims of the consequences of that act.

According to a Law maxim, ‘those consenting (to a crime) and those perpetrating it (the crime) are embraced in the same punishment (consentientes et agentes pari poen plencitentur).

Therefore, we cannot wait until this unlawful deed hurts our entire region before we take action. Again, a Latin maxim says;, ‘Error qui non ressistitur approbatur ( an error not resisted is approved). It is equally said that ‘Qui tacet consetire videtur’ which means, silence gives consent or he who is silent appears to consent. If therefore we keep mute without condemning and disassociating ourselves from that deed, it could be interpreted by anyone to mean that we acquiesced (consented) to such act.

To this effect, issuing of a DISCLAIMER by the Customary Government of Indigenous People of Biafra (CG-IPOB) is the wisest and proper action to take so as to dissociate her subjects and all members of her various arms from such crime which remains a crime against a State. Not to do this, will certainly expose CG-IPOB and her subjects to the same punishment and consequences that await the actual offenders.

It should be noted that the Customary Government of Indigenous People of Biafra (CG-IPOB) has adopted the Legal Methodology which includes the Political method, the Judicial method and the Diplomatic method. In line with her Judicial method, CG-IPOB is already in Court in the matter of Customary Law, Suit No FHC/CS/103/2019: Customary Government of Indigenous People of Biafra v Federal Republic of Nigeria & the Attorney-General of the Federation. Therefore, CG-IPOB will not close eyes and watch any misdeed that is capable of causing serious mischief to her Legal methodology. It cannot permit any misconduct that is equally capable of misinforming the general public about her. Again, CG-IPOB will not accept or condone any unlawful act that is effectively capable of denting her image directly or indirectly.

CG-IPOB will at any time, expressly frown at any unlawful conduct that has the potentiality of misrepresenting her or any of her organs before the international community, the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and before the general public. This is why the Customary Government of IPOB deemed it very necessary to issue the disclaimer.

Now, for those that are celebrating that the floating of such security outfit is a welcome development, they should quickly take this maxim home: ‘Quod contra legem fit, pro infecto habetur’, – which means, ‘what is done contrary to the law, is considered as not done’. For no one can derive any advantage from such (unlawful) act.

Ofcourse, none can derive any advantage from such (unlawful) act because it is obvious thatthat the perpetrators completely lack any legal force to operate. Hence, whatever be their act, is in the eyes of the law, an exercise in futility and in all circumstances null and void and of no lawful effect. Therefore, that act of floating a security outfit remains a nullity in its entirety.

Lets be guided.

December 16, 2020

The House of Representatives has asked the Federal Government to extend the deadline for the provision of National Identification Number by telecommunication service subscribers to 10 weeks.

The House, at the plenary on Wednesday, described the two weeks given to SIM card users by the Nigerian Communications Commission to provide their NIN to service providers as grossly inadequate.

The Minority Leader, Ndudi Elumelu, had moved a motion of urgent public importance to demand more time.

Adopting the motion, the House resolved that the exercise should end on January 28, 2021, as against December 30, 2020.

The NCC had threatened that SIM cards not linked to NIN issued by the National Identity Management Commission would be blocked.

Don’t Create Monster That Will Devour Us- Mazi Odera

December 16, 2020

I watched a Video that gave me goose pimples, set my teeth on edge and brought back unforgivable memories..

It was a Video of group of Young Men wearing Black camouflage shared on Facebook, and it was said to be the Militia Nnamdi trained as South East Security Network (ESN) just like the Amotekun of the West and series of others in the North.

I know many of his followers are with Very Hot blood and they can’t reason with anybody or likes to be corrected, which also is fears of many people from South East , since they can’t be reasoned with, what they will become if given such unchecked powers that include the lives of us and they having weapons at their disposals is the main reason many will never be comfortable with arrangement shrouded around them.

They always think that in the event of having Biafra, that they are number one citizens, while the rest are infidels, they created a serious ism and schism which breeds fear and alienate them from supposed members of the Nation they project.. A method that must be changed, to have an impact on people and minds..

May be he wasn’t aware that “Nwanyi choba Nwunye edi ya okwu, osi ya nye ya Nmanu ka owelu ta Akwu Ojukwu *(When a quarrelsome Wife wants altarcation with step wife, she will demand Palm oil to be used in eating Palm Nut called Ojukwu which produces the best of same Oil).

If it eluded him, he should remember they have killed us for less crime and they always want provocation, so they can spill more of our blood and the best we can do is to shout and call on UNITED NATION, which we know are deaf and dumb when it comes to Africa or her litany of problems but during the carnage of 1967 there was this advise which says “One Ndiro gbalu gburugburu na Eche Ndi ya Nche, mgbe nile” .. Moving on..

My business is not that of the West or South, but that of our own hood (Alaigbo) because from all indication today, everything has gone Tribalistic, and we should know that it pays to weight options so that previous expirince will serve as our teacher and Guard, so we can err at the side of caution…

Read my Lips, what other tribes does and get laughed over, if we try same, they match down Military and when they come, they kill our Youths in thousands and life goes on, then the bereaved will be consoled with Ndo, as if Ndo will give them a replacement Children, which calls for “Onye Ndiro gbalu gburugburu once again”.. .

I know many of his Cult followers won’t cool down to read this, but this is more of present and inevitable danger, so we must start a search for the missing Black GOAT while the day is bright, as when it is Dark, it will simply be assimilated with the darkness and finding such become a Mirage.

During the days when ABA were bedlock of Robbers, they robbed so hard and provoke the Shoe Makers to Form a security outfit called BAKASSI which helped to sanitize Aba, perish those Robbers and Anambra states reached out and imported them to battle our own scourge.

They came with lots of fanfare , they also clean the Extra proud Robbers that took over the state and most of South East , but…..

Less than a year along the line, they became Horror that terrifies Terror, they terrified and haunted the land so much that nobody was safe again and everybody wants an end to the once Loved outfit because they changed to a Menace..

The evil that was used in triumphant to oust our Thieves turned around to serve as Albatross..

In the days of Massob, they became more lethal than Herdsmen, they decides who starts Building house at 33 in and many places in ONUICHA, they forced Landlords to accept 2,000 Naira as House rent from Tenants , the rest given to them as Ndi Massob, if you dare say No, they will beat you inches to your death..

They formed securities that harrass all streets and tell each house how much they must be paying as Dues to support them..

If you buy a Car, they task you how much you should be paying as insurance to them and they no Born you well to negotiate or decline, it was a Caliphate of the doomed ..

It was a terrible period, but once the town were liberated of those terror that came as Freedom fighters, but turned out as Freedom takers , people forgot the Pains they passed through them ..

This time we can’t open our Eyes and restart a Monstrous exercise that will wipe us away from within.

If you want to know how this will end, just say something as correctional measure that is in conflict with the Lord they worship said through Radio or any of his autocratic method , He thinks that everybody must Kow tow or get run out of town..

When you do so, just relax for 20 Minutes and see how many insults they will haul at you, how many death threats will accompany it and notice that not even one dissent voice will say from within them , let’s hear him out or consider his own version.. Or let’s reason as Brothers, they only believe, it is either you accept them verbatim or they crush you with words and act.

If they can be intolerant over an opinion shared on Social Media, imagine what they will do if they have the powers to maim or destroy..then they will rape your household and demand you pay them for doing you that honors.. Moving on..

The reason they poscribe IPOB and not Herdsmen or BH is to have enough reason to make shooting target of the boys who pledge allegiance to the Sect , so we must not hand over the lives of our Youths to be wasted for Utopian ejaculation.

The RASCALITY of the boy who wants to lead this group will always enjoy seeing our Lands terrified, as he won’t be around to join us in the penury the unmitigated disaster will spew..

Point to Note… This Boys can be useful but with eludite directions, thoughts tutored and efforts guided with precision. But leaving them under the direction of one who is not circumspential means disaster..

South East should have a unified Security outfit, but not one headed by a boy who loves to Lord over everybody..the Government should do it for proper direction and coordination..

NDIGBO have the right to start an outfit, but are we ready for the consequences which may include another invasion of our peaceful land and render same into Ruins..

If we fall into this trance of NNAMDI, be rest assured that Herdsmen will be friendlier than what we get.. After all Ana esi na isi aru ama Uto Nsi..

Good Morning Umunne and I sit by the brooks to imagine the insults they will throw at me, but my problem is much more than having tantrums thrown, but getting our lives secured in a worthy environment.

I am LAST BORN MPA NNUKWU and I come to make Common sense.. Mazi Odera

We are Responsible for the Abduction of Kastina School Boys- Boko Haram

By

Queen Madu

-

December 15, 2020

Boko Haram has claimed responsibility for the kidnap of over 300 students from the Government Science Secondary School in Kankara, Katsina State. In a recorded 4 minutes 28 seconds audio released on Monday night December 14, Abubakar Shekau, said contrary to what is being reported, they are yet to make any demands.

HumAngle quotes Shekau as saying, “What happened in Katsina was done to promote Islam and discourage un-Islamic practices as Western education is not the type of education permitted by Allah and his Holy Prophet. “They are also not teaching what Allah and his Holy Prophet commanded. They are rather destroying Islam. It may be subtle, but Allah the Lord of the skies and earths knows whatever is hidden. May Allah promote Islam. May we die as Muslims.” “In a nutshell, we are behind what happened in Katsina.”

A Case Of Anti Christian Butcheries In Nigeria- InterSociety

By

bvichannel1

December 14, 2020

The Int’l Society for Civil Liberties & Rule of Law is dedicating this 11-page special report on: new wave of anti Christian butcheries in Africa’s Coastal Christian States and Nigeria, to all the victims of anti Christian butcheries and other forms of violence against Christians in Nigeria and beyond the borders of the country. The victims of Nigeria’s anti Christian violence we are dedicating this special report to include the massacred, the maimed, the disfigured, the amputated, the traumatized, the raped, the disappeared, the displaced, the homelenslaved, the converted and the threatened. The special report is also mortally and immortally popularly demanded and fallout of our interactions with the spirits of those who were violently departed on the grounds of their religion and belief as well as firm promises we made to them.

This special report was researched and compiled for Intersociety by Emeka Umeagbalasi, Criminologist & Graduate of Security Studies and Intersociety Board Chair; assisted by Barr Chinwe Umeche, Barr Chidimma Udegbunam, Barr Obianuju Igboeli, Barr Ndidiamaka Chinaza Bernard and Comrade Samuel Kamanyaoku. Intersociety is reachable though +2348174090052, info@intersociety-ng.org and www.intersociety-ng.org. Intersociety has been following the killing of Christians by jihadists in Nigeria or any part thereof including their patterns and trends since 2010 and has graphically done same this year, from the start of Jan to this date, 13th Dec 2020. We have also followed the atrocious and hateful conducts of the Nigerian Army including targeted killing of defenseless civilians on the grounds of their religion and ethnicity since Jan 2020 and since 2015.

Our special report is also in commemoration of this year’s 72 World Human Rights Day, a weeklong global event that officially commenced on Thursday, 10th Dec 2020. The special report, to be published in three phases including this four-page Executive Summary, is a summed up compendium of ‘the new wave of ‘genocidal radical Islamism’, threatening the Africa’s Coastal Christian States particularly the Christian held rainforest regions of Nigeria, a region with not less than 90m Christians. The special report is an eye opener to all and sundry with loaded facts and intellectual ingredients for general global community and the regional and international strategic partners and research institutions.

One of two striking features in the special report is the blacklisting of the Int’l Criminal Court (ICC) and the Government of Nigeria as “remote drivers of the anti Christian butcheries and other forms of violence against Christians in Nigeria”. We have reasoned correctly that ‘had the ICC under Prosecutor Fatou Bom Bensouda, whose nine-year single tenure elapses by June 2021 and Nigerian Government couriered and installed ICC President, Mr. Chile Eboe-Osuji, whose first tenure elapses by April 2021, lived up to their sworn sacred duties as clearly provided in the ICC Statute or Charter, 80%, if not 90% of the 34,400 massacred Christians and estimated 20,000 moderate Muslims’ deaths since 2009/2010, in addition to most of over 17,000 burnt or destroyed churches and 2000 Christian schools would have been secured’. ICC has endlessly since 2010 “commenced investigations on Nigeria”, yet ten years down the line, killing fields and graveyards in the country have increased with rapid speed.

We are therefore shocked and deeply dismayed over provocative excuses given by the outgoing Prosecutor of the Court in her public statement few days ago that her Office delayed from attending to trailer-load of petitions from Nigeria so as “to give the Nigerian Government (a key perpetrator) ample opportunity and time to redress the listed crimes’ classified under ‘Crimes against Humanity’ and ‘War Crimes’. Intersociety has not only lost total faith in the duo but also held that ‘nothing good whatsoever shall come from the outgoing Prosecutor and the outgoing President of the Court’.

This is more so when the Court under them is doing everything possible to impress and shield the present central Government of Nigeria from grisly or ‘industrial scale’ crimes it has committed over the years. Typical example is the Court’s outgoing leadership’s obvious lukewarm attitude towards enlisting Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen in its list of atrocity and heinous crimes perpetrators and more attention paid to Boko Haram. Nigerians and the world may not be surprised to hear from the Court soonest that “it is only investigating or has found merit in the crimes committed by Boko Haram and the Nigerian security agencies from May 2015 and backward or below”.

It is on the basis of the above, therefore, that we are calling for sustained international campaigns and efforts at ensuring the final exit of the duo from the leadership of the Court. In other words, lovers and apostles of justice all over the world must not only ensure that Mr. Chile Eboe-Osuji is not returned in April 2021 as second term President of ICC, but also get a new charismatic and statesmanlike elected as the new President of the Court. Madam Fatou Bom Bensouda, on her part, must no longer be taken serious. As a matter of fact, she should be assisted in packing her luggage out of the ICC Prosecutor’s Office at The Hague. Powerful State-Parties to ICC, including the Great Britain, France, Germany, Netherlands, Brazil, Denmark, Switzerland, Australia, Japan, South Africa and Portugal and powerfully influential watchdogs like Amnesty Int’l and Human Rights Watch and Britain’s eminent activist Parliamentarians, etc are respectfully prayed and called upon to take note.

The second striking feature in our special report is our forensic updates on the number of defenseless Christians killed by the country’s non state actor jihadist groups in 2020 and those killed since 2009. Also captured are defenseless Christians killed by Nigeria’s heavily Muslim controlled or dominated security forces particularly the Nigerian Army. The Nigerian Army is majorly responsible for 200 Christian deaths in 2020 alone and 1,400 since August 2015. Our inclusion of Christians killed by the Army in particular as well as some killed by Police and Air Force followed our careful observation and study of the composition and hateful conducts of the trio particularly by soldiers of the Nigerian Army.

Such hateful killings are targeted at particular citizens of the country on the grounds of their religion and ethnicity. For instance, our assessment of the Obigbo Army Massacre, Emene Army Massacre, Lekki Army Massacre, Takum-Taraba Tiv Christians massacred by the Army in June 2020 and the Oct 2020 EndSARS killings in the Southeast majorly perpetrated by the Army and Police, clearly indicate that the victims were hatefully targeted and hatefully killed or maimed on the grounds of their ethnic and religious backgrounds. Their killers are also found to be selectively composed and lumped along ethno-religious lines hateful of the victims and their ethno-religious backgrounds.

Death Of 2,200 Nigerian Christians In 2020: From Jan 2020 to this 13th Dec 2020, Intersociety has statistically found that as much as or not less than 2,200 Christians are most likely to have been killed in Nigeria and out of this figure, Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen is responsible for as much as or not less than 1,300 Christian deaths, followed by Boko Haram and its splinter groups (ISWAP and Ansaru) with 500 Christian deaths, Nigerian Army 200 Christian deaths and Jihadist “Bandits” 100 Christian deaths. The 500 Christian deaths by Boko Haram and its splinter groups, arrived at using 60% Muslim and 40% Christian casualty calculation or ratio, had arisen from estimated 1,200 defenseless civilians killed by the jihadists from 1st Jan to 13th Dec 2020. In other words, Nigeria in 2020 has lost average of six Christians per day and 180 per month.

It is strongly and circumstantially suspected that the Nigerian security forces particularly the Army, the Police, the Spy Police and the country’s non state actor jihadists have in this 2020 carried out as much as or not less than 100 secret executions, done on the grounds of ethnicity and religion; involving those secretly arrested or abducted and taken into their secret detention facilities or camps manned by the jihadists from where they were likely to have been secretly executed. The addition of this figure therefore brings the total number of defenseless citizens killed this year (2020) on religious and ethnicity grounds by Nigerian security forces and Islamic Jihadists to 2,200. This figure is subject to further updates in the remaining eighteen days of 2020, if the killings are continued.

The targeted and systematic killing of Christians in 2020 by the Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen, leading to as much as or not less than 1,300 Christian deaths had occurred in Southern Kaduna which recorded the highest number with at least 455 Christian deaths, followed by Benue State with 200 deaths, Plateau State 173, Niger State 70, Kogi State 55, Nasarawa State 42, Adamawa State 40, Igbo Land including Igbo parts of Delta and Benue 40, Taraba State 32, Southwest Region about 35, non Igbo parts of Delta 20, Edo State 15 and Bayelsa State 4. The 1,300 Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen massacred Christians include at least 50 abducted Christians, mainly abducted about five months ago in Jihadist Fulani Herdsmen attacks on Christian settlements and farmlands in Kaduna as well as addition of ‘dark figure’ of 70. The “dark figure”, a valid research principle in criminology, represents those Christians killed but went unreported or not documented.
