IPOB AND ITS DYNAMIC NATURE. A SERIOUS CONCERN TO HER CRITICS.
"We are laying down for the world, method of freedom fighting. After us, there will be non like us". That was great statement from Nnamdi Kanu that looked stupid based on the realities of the time. Considering various degrees of psycho-social damages on most Biafrans, due to Nigeria factor, one would had see NNAMDI KANU as a confused and one with youthful exuberance.
Little did he started unveiling practical IPOB methodologies at bewilderment of many observers and his destructive critics that many started re-adjusting their seats positions for better views on NNAMDI KANU and IPOB Family strategies. I have been keenly understudying IPOB and NNAMDI KANU (not as Nwachineke), but on neutral ground as a historian and one with conservative interest in diplomacy. One thing I deduced that enjoys general inference is that Nnamdi Kanu fooled the headless zoo (Nigeria) and his critics into misinterpreting his actions, mode and tone.
Take for instance, he made Nigeria increase her arm budget against capital budget which would have better the lives of her citizenry, thereby discouraging many into subscribing into Biafra dream. With his warning of turning Nigeria into Somalia, Nigeria increased her armed budget with hope of meeting NNAMDI KANU and IPOB in trenches.
THE IMPLICATION OF NNAMDI KANU INDUCED ARM RACE ON NIGERIA
If Nigeria is an arm producing country, things would have not really gotten worst as it is now for her. She would have mitigated NNAMDI KANU decoy that got her presently devastated. For the fact she doesn't run any Military Industrial Complex (MIC), she was forced into consuming external arm market thereby running into trade deficit. Considering that arm market is expensive to accessed due to various lobbying and hurdles, the zoo unconsciously liquiated her external reserve at the peril of domestic economy.
Remember that arms don't produce any economic viability rather they are wastefully stockpiled and maintained at the peril of the comatose zoo economy. This is a bad investment NNAMDI KANU forcefully through voice proclaimation on Radio Biafra dragged the zoo into. Unfortunately to the zoo, while NNAMDI KANU forced the zoo into costly and devastated arm race, he turned back, mobilised and activated a powerful media and physical campaign against the zoo before those who supposed to supply the paid arms. From there, Tucano Jets were withheld by US, many countries distance themselves from further supply to the zoo to avert vicious cycle IPOB protests.
Also while Nigeria arm invoice were growing greatly on arm consumption , the world was forced to have a critical look on purpose of such arm consumption in Nigeria. While Nigeria was hiding under Boko Haram as a reason for arm demands, IPOB exposed to the world the real aim of Nigeria arm race. The world believed IPOB due to her sophisticated pattern of media presentation which is embedded on facts and evidences. When a man holds hammer, everything becomes a nail! IPOB lured the zoo to stockpile arms, that makes her bellicose and internationally belligerent while IPOB turns the oppressed.
If there is anything disturbing to the zoo now, it the ache of how IPOB lured her into arm race which damaged her image and economy, only for IPOB to turn diplomatic. While Nigeria planned and invested in war before diplomacy, IPOB was internally configuring for diplomacy against war. Before Nigeria could realized IPOB has won reputation before EU, US, UN and her critics as nonviolent. Those whose earlier campaign against IPOB was that she is violent are battling on what to do as IPOB has wrecked down that misinterpretation.
May our enemies keep living in illusion till Biafra comes.
