As a Yoruba man, I laugh at Igbo people, every time I remember them. Though sometimes I pity them. Igbo people have no leaders. They have leaders who are always struggling to please people in power in the Federal government. When Buhari was President, a Yoruba man was his vice. Igbo so-called leaders were struggling to be good boys to Buhari, and Bűhari used them against the collective Igbo interest.
Today, a Yoruba man is the president and a Hausa Fulani man is the vice president, and Igbo leaders are doing the same thing. Trying to please Tinubu against the interests of their Igbo people. This is where I pity anyone calling himself an Igbo man. How can you have leaders who struggle, falling on themselves to please those who hate your people so much, and you people are still comfortable? How?
Has any Igbo man become anything reasonable in Nigeria since the civil wăr? How are the Federal roads in the Southeast? There is no single Federal Government presence in the entire South East.
Funny enough, the only man standing tall to tell the Nigerian government what they are doing to the Igbo people has been locked up illegally for four years and the Igbo so-called leaders are silent.
As a Yoruba man, I don’t dream of being in the situation of the Igbo people in Nigeria.
