THE BIRD STORY

Nnamdi Kanu/ IPOB Leader

A bird had a nest of chicks and each time she flew away and returned to her nest, she would ask her chicks, “when will the farmer harvest the farm?”
They will reply “he said he will ask his brother to harvest for him tomorrow” and the mother bird will say, “then there will be no food for us tomorrow.”
Another time she asked and they replied, “he said he will ask his son to harvest for him” and at a different occasion they responded that he has asked his friend to help him out. The chicks always got the same reaction from their mother which was always “there will be no food for us tomorrow.”

One day the mother bird returned and asked the chicks the same question and they responded, “the farmer said he will harvest the farm himself tomorrow” and then the mother bird chirped happily “wow! We will surely have food tomorrow.”

The only assurance of accomplishment is that which has been guaranteed by your own action. Many a time we trust others to do for us what we should do for ourselves. Disappointments will surely result from such expectations especially when circumstances makes you a leader and you believe your direction and instructions will get you the right results.

Leadership in most cases involves rolling up your sleeves, getting down on your knees and really getting dirty to ensure the job gets done. It is not just about incitement and calling for protests but also about personally leading theses protests. Without giving specifics, I am sure we all know that a true leader does not take all the glory for battles won, neither does he take home all the spoils of war alone. You do not abandon your captured lieutenants in battle.

Lonely IPOB members in court

The November elections in Anambra state will be the true litmus test of a people who have resolved their goals and as the leader has declared he will halt elections in the land, his success will determine his relevance and strength in the struggle. Umuahia to Awka is not a long journey and I will appreciate seeing him on the streets of Awka and Onitsha together with his wife, kids, siblings and parents all in full regalia leading the enforcement of the total compliance of his noble directives.

Celebrity Evans

Image
Several weeks ago the media was awash with stories of a certain Evans (Chukwuduneme Onwuamadike) who was known as a kidnap kingpin and dubbed the biggest and richest kidnapper in the land. He had evaded arrests and had a field day beating security agencies in their own game. How he managed to pull this off is a story for another day. The media in their attempt to make profitable headlines and increase readership online and paper kept reporting him and even ran commentaries on mundane things such as his dressing while in detention. Some made documentaries on his wealth and opulence. The volume of information at the disposal of the public was alarming that at a time it seemed the public knew even more than even the Inspector General of Police and/or Head of the taskforce team Abba Kyari that arrested him. Everyone suddenly became an authority on the Evans story. Everyone suddenly knew something about him or at one time or the other claimed to have interacted with him. Nollywood Movie

THE SUMPTUOUS MEAL

Image
Looking at the picture above brought back fresh pangs of hunger and memories of all the hunger I have ever felt in my entire life. I could not help but wonder what is going on in so many homes living under the poverty line. A lot of children crying out in huger in so many homes and some mothers forcing their dry breasts into the mouths of their last children who are still toddlers just to placate them. I just pray blood does not flow out in place of milk. Still looking at the picture, I can see some governors who have not paid workers’ salaries for months and some with several abandoned projects scattered across their states yet with high performance ratings only in sponsored media documentaries. The total expenditure of a single governor in this photo is enough to offset at least a month salary or complete one of the numerous abandoned projects. I hate looking at the picture because it exposes the folly of the Nigerian project where forex which is needed to shore up our economy

Riddle!

It is abstract, yet so real. It can be felt yet not touched but it can touch others. It is mutual yet can be selfish. It gives life but has equally taken lives. A great source of joy yet brings sorrow and and sadness. Over-zealous yet lackadaisical and taken for granted. Builds dynasties yet has destroyed dynasties. Builds bonds yet destroys greatest of bonds. It conquers all ......
