OLD MEN DECLARE WAR BUT ITS THE YOUTHS
WHO MUST FIGHT AND DIE! The infantile
agitations for the establishment of the sovereign
state of Biafra by some unscrupulous urchins
goaded by megalomaniac political elites from the
south east requires outright collective
condemnation by right thinking Nigerians. I
remain amazed at the level of foolishness
exhibited by these so called Biafrans who are
bent on unbundling the contraption called Nigeria.
The elites who are supposed to promote national
unity by placing premium on national cohesion
have allowed their saner minds to give way for
base impulses. Their individual self interest
certainly beclouds their sense of living in a
peaceful environment. I call on all youths involved
in this senseless movement to reason. The blood
of a youth should not be the ultimate price to
pay! lets give reason a chance and send the
devils from Hades back to Hades. Though a
colonial contraption, Nigeria holds the key to our
collective aspirations... A word is enough for the
wise! By Umar Nasir Ida (Corps member serving in Ekiti state of Nigeria).
