Editor’s introduction:
The material in this article first appeared in a post on the Lower Niger Congress Facebook page at the end of December 2021. The information in it is important for those who seek Self-Determination for their Ethnic Nation, because those who want the status quo to remain, and their Judas Goats will try every trick they can in their attempts to derail the Self-Determinationprocess. A wise man of old instructed people not to be ignorant of the devices of evil, then also to stand against those wiles. It is advisable that these clear instructions be followed, at this critical time.
The video referred to by Tony Nnadi is titled, “Conversation OnResource Control With Professor Benjamin Okaba & Hakeem Baba-Ahmed” December 30, 2021.
Link to the video:
The bulk of what is left now is more of a psychological war with the Caliphate and so what Hakeem Baba Ahmed (spokesperson of the Northern Elders Forum) was doing in that interview was only a mind-game, using the Igbo assets in Abuja (and the rest of the North) as instruments of blackmail; minimizing the importance of oil in the current equation of Nigeria, while playing up and exaggerating future economic possibilities from solid minerals sitting in the North.
More importantly, he deftly brings up the question of going intoNational Elections in 2023 as a life-saving necessity because he presents that as the only way to safely get rid of the Buhari Government whom he deliberately presents as the greatest obstacle to the Restructuring everyone is clamouring for.
He goes on to present the so-called Mega Party he is cobbling together with Utomi, Oby Ezekwesili, Ghali Na’Abba, Jega and a long list of other beneficiaries of the sham 1999 Constitution,who worked together and wrought Buhari on us in 2015.
He is presenting that bunch, for the purpose of Elections 2023, as the credible believers in Restructuring upon whom Nigerians should now pin their hopes for the urgently required constitutional dialogues and adjustments.
They are trying to pull a stunt, and yet again deceive Nigerians.For, this very same gathering were the ones who instead of working with us to halt the voyage under the illegitimate 1999 Constitution to the 2015 Electoral Round (which Jonathan was disposed to enact and for which reason he convoked the 2014 National Conference), ganged up against us and against Jonathan, but found an ingenious way to smuggle and market “Restructuring” as part of the APC Manifesto ahead of the 2015 Round. Seven years after, and perhaps counting on the spell-level amnesia (forgetfulness) of Nigerians, the same bunch of people gather to present themselves as “champions” of Restructuring whilst still vigorously opposing and sabotaging the NINAS Movement push to halt the voyage to Elections 2023under that repudiated and illegitimate 1999 Constitution, in order to first resolve the Union Dispute emanating from the damaged constitutional basis of Nigeria.
Reading between the lines in this video and listening to what is NOT said, Hakeem Baba Ahmed (despite looking cool and calm), still gives away the fear and hopelessness of the Caliphate, establishing the fact that unless the Caliphate is able to drag us to Elections 2023, they stand no chance of recovering from the dire consequences of the defeat and dislodgment of the 1999 Constitution. Understanding THIS holds the key to our (South and Middle Belt) victory over the Caliphate and we only need to work with speed and accuracy right now to crystallize and bring home that victory which we already secured by the NINAS Joint Multi-Regional Constitutional Force Majeure of December 16, 2020 which in one year has brought the 1999 Constitution to its death-bed.
Nigeria has broken down. Given all the insecurity everywhere, it is very much on the verge of a disorderly break-up unless immediate steps are taken to emplace an Orderly Process of Wholesale Reconfiguration. The Five-Point Proposition of NINAS provides a clear, timebound Framework including the HOW, the WHEN, the WHO and the WHAT for the immediate undertaking of the inevitable Union Reconfiguration. Therefore,the Voyage to another round of National Elections in 2023 under the defeated 1999 Constitution MUST be halted and a Transitioning Process initiated. Anyone suggesting that we must first get to another Elections in 2023 before putting out the fire already gutting the Failed Lugardian Experiment of 1914, is simply being disingenuous and trying to deceive the suffering masses.
Editor’s comment:
The only card left for the Caliphate to continue to use theirinstrument (ie the imposed 1999 Constitution) that seizes the resources of indigenous Ethnic Nations, that enables land grab via genocide against the Owners, and unjust actions likeestablishing “RUGA” Fulani colonies on ancestral lands of indigenous peoples, plus the proposed control of water bodies, waterways and lands on their banks (National Waterways Bill) – is RENEWAL OF THE LIFE of that sham Constitution via Elections 2023.
The enemies of Self-Determination are continuing their mind games. We should not be unaware of their wiles and psychological warfare. They use “stoop to conquer” iepretending to be in the same situation as you are, and to be suffering in the same way that you are. Plus, they use “taqiyyah”, the practice of concealing one’s belief and intentions (thus, deceit and hypocrisy) as a legitimate tool of conquest.
