THE SECRET OF MAZI NNAMDI KANU AND IPOB

July 26 2020 | The Biafra Restoration Voice

To know the truth and to be convinced with the knowledge of the truth is one big thing. And to audaciously speak the truth, damming the consequences is yet another almighty thing. Because in the world of the truth, we have three groups of people. First, we have those who know the truth but they are not convinced with the knowledge of the truth. Therefore, they cannot speak the truth. Second, we have those who know the truth and are convinced with the knowledge of the truth, but they are either too scared or compromised. Hence, they cannot speak the truth either. And third, we have those who are not only convinced with the knowledge of the truth, they are also purified and emboldened with the knowledge and conviction of the truth. Therefore, they do not only speak the truth, they are consistent with speaking the truth.

In Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB, we know the truth, we are convinced with the knowledge of the truth; and we are purified and emboldened with the knowledge and conviction of the truth. This is the secret of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB. Nothing more, nothing less!

Talking about truth, it becomes important that we ask the question that comes to mind: What is truth and how do we know the truth? Because this question, if answered very sincerely and accurately, will enable us to know the truth when we hear or see it; and also, to know those who speak and identify with it.

According to Advance English Dictionary, truth is defined as "conformity to reality or actuality." Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines truth as "the real facts about something." And with Wikipedia, "truth is the property of being in accord with facts or reality."

From these definitions, we can deduce that "reality," or that which is "real" is what defines truth. It then means that, the truth of an event, or a prediction, or a set of propositions, or a statement, or even a stance is its ability to conform to reality. Some scholars have argued that truth is relative. While this argument may be applicable to some events; and acceptable to some people, it is important to note that this "relativity of truth" is often the basis for bias and prejudice. And so, to get rid of this room for bias and prejudice, "time" becomes the only reliable test of truth. Because with time, the true state of events, is revealed.

This philosophical connection between truth and time was well understood by Mazi Nnamdi Kanu. And when he left MASSOB and formed IPOB in 2012, he laid the foundation IPOB's activities on truth. With Radio Biafra, he started dishing out this message of truth to the world. One of his quotes on IPOB goes thus: "Do not use IPOB to impress people, use IPOB to impact people. IPOB possess a pure feeling for beauty, the courage to take risks, the discipline to tell the truth, the capacity for any sacrifice. Our virtues are a divine light."

This quote has totally and completely conformed to what IPOB is today, especially in Nigeria. Knowledge, they say, is power. But I choose to say that "true knowledge is the true power."

The power that Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB possess today is not from guns and bullets. It is not even from university education, because in Nigeria, they have a sizeable chunk of people who acquired their university education from some of the best universities of the world which of course, IPOB - a congregation of miscreants, do not have the luxury to afford. The power that we possess in IPOB is simply the power of the truth and the discipline to tell the truth.

When Mazi Nnamdi Kanu said in Nigeria's court that he will destroy Nigeria with only truths. A lot of people would have wondered what truth will this black man say that has the capacity to destroy Nigeria. Most governments of the world, Nigeria not an exception, are diplomatic with politics. They are politically correct with governance and democracy. And it is in this “political correctness” or “diplomacy” that a lot of evil, falsehood, deceits and lies are buried in. They prefer to use codes of politics as tools to cover up the evil. And so, if anyone lays hold on these “sacred secret grounds of politics,” the person becomes a figure not to be ignored.

Meanwhile in 2014, he said and I quote, "As they campaign vigorously for elections, you would think, they are coming to grow the economy, enthrone justice, breed unity and tolerance, love for one another. No, they are coming to enthrone Hausa/Fulani supremacy, to reposition the security agencies by sacking all competent hands and replace them with their kinsmen in order to drive their ethnic domination of the south. The Fulani Herdsmen will be armed and encouraged to slaughter us with impunity and their masters will protect them. They are coming to ensure that my people are enslaved forever. Those who do not believe me will see it happen before their eyes."

Today, these statements have played out with this government. All the security agencies are in the hands of Fulani. And now, notable figures like General T. Y Danjuma, Former President Obasanjo are now crying out in conformity with the reality of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu's 2014 words. If Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB were able to see and say what is playing out today in 2014, then that tells you who we are and the power that we possess.

In 2017, Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB told the world that President Muhammadu Buhari is dead. Many people do not believe him despite all the forensic evidence he rolls out to support his claim. In fact, a lot of people called for his head and the army invaded his house in order to kill him for daring to say that the president is dead. But today, not only that very many people are believing that Buhari is not in charge of Aso Rock, they are speaking up about it even on national televisions. But something is still missing.

If you now believe that Buhari is not in charge of Aso Rock or this government, which is true, based on his antecedents as a military head of state, then who is the person in Aso Rock? And where is Buhari? These are the questions that Nigerians are not asking, and within the answers to these questions lies their redemption. As for us in IPOB, we know where Buhari is and we know who is in Aso Rock.

Truth is absolute. Truth is total. And truth is complete.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are absolute with truth because we are not being restricted by political inclinations/affiliations towards Biafra restoration and from saying the truths about Nigeria. Nigeria even tried to use her laws and security systems to refrain us from saying the truths but we broke that proclivity of bandage. And so, our absoluteness with truth is such that we are not restricted by anything whatsoever from telling the truth.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are total with truth because we say the whole truths even when the truths seem not to be on our side. We do not cut out the part that will sooth our resolve or stance in order to appear sanctimonious. Because we understand that being selective with truth is more damaging than falsehood. And so, our totality with truth is such that we say the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are complete with truth because in IPOB, we understand that truth is a character. And to express this character requires discipline. And so, it is this discipline that runs from top to bottom of IPOB leadership that makes us complete with truth. There have been cases where coordinators of IPOB have been suspended or expelled from IPOB for lack of discipline. Because IPOB cannot afford to allow itself to be used by charlatans for the same thing that she is fighting against for "We Are Whiter Than White, and Whiter Than Snow."

The colour white is the only colour that has the capacity to reveal all other colours. So, in IPOB, we do not only reveal all the hidden colours of evil and falsehood, we also repel them. And we do that so daringly without minding the consequences because we are sent by Elohim in heaven.
