By Tony Nnadi
In response to a string of comments by readers regarding the difficulties encountered by a large segment of the Public to comprehend the Public Communications of the LNC and the consequent disconnection of that segment of the Public from the self-evident works of the LNC, Tony Nnadi wrote as follows:
From what the LNC knows of Nigeria by Virtue of it’s thorough research, there are 4 distinct compartments of tasks in the Liberation Fight.
The first and most important (actually 75% of the whole task), is the Dismantling of the Monster holding the Peoples of the entire Sovereign Territory called “Nigeria” (including Eastern Nigeria) in Bondage and Servitude.
That Monster the World calls “Nigeria”, Operates by an omnipotent instrument called “the Constitution” imposed by the Fulani Caliphate.
The People in that bondage do not know of anything called the Constitution neither do they know about the Caliphate. The mass IGNORANCE about the EXISTENCE and OPERATIONS of these two great demons (which are like the invisible metal chains and padlocks by which the masses are locked down in their Bondage and Servitude) is the biggest CAPITAL in the hands of the Caliphate and their Collaborators (the Politicians) across Nigeria, including Eastern Nigeria.
What we need to TAKE DOWN both the Rogue 1999 Constitution and OVERCOME the deadly but Insidious Caliphate, are simply too complicated for the masses to relate to. Incidentally, unless something defeats these two monstrous forces, all talk of Liberation in Nigeria is a but a joke that would constantly cost blood.
The LNC and it’s MNN Alliance Partners quietly and unobtrusively undertook this ALL-IMPORTANT leg of the Task for nearly 20 years, culminating in the recent dramatic pronouncements of the US (July 2019) where it identified what was going on in Nigeria as “AN ETHNIC CLEANSING CAMPAIGN BY THE FULANI AGAINST THE INDIGENOUS NATIONALITIES OF NIGERIA FOR THE PURPOSE OF TAKING OVER THEIR LANDS AND ASSETS.”.
Then in August 2019, the UN Rapporteur’s Mission to Nigeria described the CONSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS OF NIGERIA AS “A PRESSURE-COOKER FOR INJUSTICE.”
It did not require the mass participation of the Populace to wrought all these and so the language of the LNC/MNN Public Communications for the Task was like laser beams, tailored to cut through the granite strongholds of the Caliphate and the Constitution.
It is important to note that the Spirit of Eastern Nigeria (especially the Igbo) departed PERMANENTLY from Nigeria since 1967.
If you were to conduct a REFERENDUM in 1970, 1980, 1990 or 2019, in Eastern Nigeria, the outcome would be the same: an Overwhelming YES vote for Independence. It does not require any great Campaign at all for no other kind of Campaign can be more potent than that waged by the 3.5 million of our Kith and Kin (including 2 million starving Children), who died in the Battlefields of Biafra, Proclaiming their Independence and defending their Inalienable Right to Self-Determination in the face of the 3-Year unmitigated Genocide by the Nigerian State (1967-1970), coming on the heels of 1966 waves of Pogrom.
The sentiment and desire of Eastern Nigeria for “Biafra” (ie Independence) from the Murderous, Inequitable and Retrogressive Nigerian State HAD NEVER WANED, and has in fact grown progressively since 1970, just as the wickedness of Nigeria grew since after the War. It is this unquenchable sentiment and desire for FREEDOM that the “Biafra Restoration” Merchants tapped into, to set up a Global Franchise instead of performing that little, yet important, Compartment of Task, of carrying the mashed message of Liberation to our People. They choose to hoodwink and deceive an ill-informed, distressed but most zealous People who were (and are) ever prepared to lay down everything including their lives in the quest for Freedom.
The deceived lot at the Homeland, mostly young people, trooped out and died in their numbers, frantically waving “Biafra” Flags and completely convinced that “Biafra” will come immediately from the blood sacrifice they make, but not realizing that they were being summoned to death by Clear-minded criminals exploiting their zeal for Freedom. Nothing can be more heinous.
Bearing in mind the aforementioned Compartments of Task and the concomitant Diversity of Target-Stakeholder Audiences around the Globe, the Public Communications of the LNC is carefully crafted to be effective for each audience segment.
Accordingly, the limited and easy-to-digest information that the masses need to have in order to do their own part in the Liberation Task had to be mashed like you do with the food you give to a baby.
The LNC made appropriate arrangements for how that information would be disseminated.
Unfortunately, some of those the LNC tried to commission to undertake this retail-end Communication with our People turned out to be cold-calculating criminal elements with mercantile motives. They turned that little compartment of task which constitutes a little less than 5% of the overall task, into a business venture operating a Global Franchise codenamed “Biafra Restoration” AT THE EXPENSE OF THE PROJECT IMPERATIVES.
It is this band of “Freedom”’merchants that the LNC had to Categorize as a Global Rogue “Biafra” Franchise in September 2017 after about 12-15 Years of painstaking engagements with the Leaderships of the various “Biafra” Agitation Groups.
Guided by the lessons of 1967-1970 Biafra, the next most important compartment of the task is the trinity of :
(1) The INTERNAL COHESION we need in the Greater Eastern Nigeria Territory that seek the Independence (ie the Lower Niger Territory);
(2) The MULTI-REGIONAL ALLIANCES we need with the Non-Caliphate rest of Nigeria (ie the Middle-Belt and Yoruba Blocs who are now also distressed and seeking redemption), to defeat the Caliphate-led 1967 Alliance which included the duo that came against the Breakaway Eastern Nigeria (Biafra); and,
(3) The INTERNATIONAL ALLIANCES especially with Global Super-Powers which are Stakeholders in Nigeria required to safely navigate the wholesale a Reconfiguration of the Defunct Federation of Nigeria.
This tripartite Compartment of the Liberation Task accounts for about 15% of the Overall Task. Again, the LNC and it’s Alliance-Building Outreach to the Middle Belt and the Yoruba Blocs called the “Movement for New Nigeria”, MNN, quietly and Unobtrusively emplaced these three critically required Alliances, between 2003 and 2019.
The 4th Compartment of the Liberation Task has to do with the delicate steps of precipitating an Orderly TRANSITIONING Process from the prevailing Constitutional Order to the Successor-Protocols (Post-Nigeria) validated by UN-Backed REFERENDUMS. This equally important Compartment accounts for the balance of 5% of the whole Liberation Task but holds the key to the Violence Quotient that will be associated with the Inevitable Reconfiguration of the Defunct Federation of Nigeria that collapsed since 1966. Managed well, it has the potential to shut out large-scale Violence or War from the entire Process (or to reduce the potential for violence to the barest minimum).
When in 2013 those who knew what the LNC was doing arranged for Nnamdi Kanu to come to see me in Lagos, it was because the LNC had intended to commission his group to undertake the retail-end of the Public Communications required to bring to the masses of the People, the limited range of information they needed to have and in the language they could relate to, at the level of the Orwellian Four-Legs-Good-Two-Legs-Bad.
That meeting took place in Victoria Island and lasted 4 whole hours. As to be expected, there were Fundamental Issues of Strategy and Methodology upon which we sharply disagreed.
However, TIME, the Chief-Moderator of the Affairs of Men would have resolved everything but as it turned out, Greed, Folly and Hubris took over. The rest as they say is history. Yet the Liberation Train is in full gear.
The War that began in July of 1967 at Gakem is in the Process of being ended by REFERENDUMS.
The LNC and it’s MNN Alliance Partners have Delegitimized and Defeated the Victory Charter of the Caliphate from that War of 1967-1970. That Victory Charter is what was in August 2019 described by the UN Special Rapporteur as “a Pressure-Cooker-For-Injustice” (codenamed “the 1999 Constitution”), and the Entrapped Indigenous Nationalities of Nigeria held in Bondage and Servitude, (also now being subjected to Ethnic Cleansing by the Fulani) will leave the Caliphate Prison.
With the Two Monsters now unmasked and incapacitated, arrangements are underway by the LNC to re-engage the Populace with the Information Segment they require at this stage of the Campaign. Many may not know, but the LNC was first on the Streets with the Grassroots between 2009 and 2013 before the disruption from “Biafra Restoration” Franchise.
