 A DINGE TO IGBO POLITICIANS AND POWER BROKERS by Mkpisi Ndi Egede. 


The metaphor of akpa akpa ararú na ute was coined by ELDERS for expression and concern to Umuazi ógbaru ofuru, which also reminds us of the expression Úzú amaró akpu ogene , nekene Egbe anya na ódu and see the natural prototype of ogene which the English called the Metal GONG, that way the forging of the Gong won't continue to be elusive to our Black Smith. 


Was it not experience that made my Mpa to say na Agadi Nwanyi bu ngwa afia daa nda ada na abó enroute the market, ogua ife obu na ukpa ónu to determine if the remnant and misfortune falls covering the remaining distance worth the journey. 


I have advised, i have wept but it's either I was talking to the deaf or Satan have padlocked the Gate of our Leaders mind, and welu Fetters forged with Galvanized steel to cement our thinking faculty , if not, how can we allow same POLITICAL ósisi to pierce our eyes at many intervals?.


We always plan to fail,we refused to learn from past experience,much ado about igbo marginalization but back in 1999 when EKWUEME were pitched against OBASANJO and PDP PRIMARIES in Jos ,it was charged, then EKWUEME has the upper definition and was ready to win,but our own Jim Nwobodo buried that effort when he resorted to using Awusa language to slaughtered his own brother and enthrone OBASANJO who later show Ndigbo his hatred by making sure our businesses were nailed at Crucifix ,as he proscribed Wharfs serving ALAIGBO and planted Customs and Exercises enroute igbo land ,so that if one even use LAGOS designated wharfs which was the only surviving wharfs in the Nation and you use same to clear your goods ,you can't take it to east for resale ,as they planted Customs who will frustrate your effort .


We know that customs dwell at border towns but for sake of marginalizing Ndigbo , Customs were positioned at inland and we know that nothing is abormination in Nigeria,we are nation of anomalies,but without jim Nwobodo serving as internal enemy,his own brother Alex Ekwueme would've being the president if he had gotten the PDP party ticket which was the winning Party then, and as astute architect would've rebuilt NIGERIA to rank with America and Europe..


 EKWUEME was on roller coaster but Jim Nwobodo played a sabotage and he lost, and Alaigbo started suffering the POLITICAL consequences which did not spare Jim Nwobodo or his family and kinsmen,we all started eating the sour fruit of TRIPODIAL Hatred which keep growing day to day.


We had Senate Presidency by virtue of creative understanding,where President,Vice and Senate President shall be divided into the TRIPODIAL 3 Legs ,and we wrestled it down and enacted impeachment of 3 of them and left us at mercies of others.


Last National election We had a Presidental candidate that was nationally accepted and Globally endorsed ,but our own Governor and Bossom friend of same person traveled to LONDON to Write unbelievable Stinker against same friend, thinking he is dealing Evil to the man ,while he is showing treachery to entire Alaigbo.


We have Lopsided POLITICAL pursuit which is anchored on nkem and never nke anyi, though we used to have "Nkea bu nke anyi" Political party but the trading politicians reduced it to sectional enterprise and allowed Denominational Demon to take charge, and it became Nkea bu nke ndia na Ndia , making me to remember na anyi di abua nwelu Aturu, ósó gana gana buru onye ató, we have taking a detour that led us to forest of the doom and we are looking for solace in dooms paradise. 


We want to dance the National Surugede Political dance , but we forgot that it's dance of the spirit and not dinge of Holy Ghost, we are going to Evil forest and instead of arming self with requisite decanter, we simply arm self with sign of the cross which is Imported Decanter.

When we know that even after anyi mechalu na afa nna , fa ga akó anyi nsi and we are suffering the continual effect of our POLITICAL dysfunctions. 


We have not infritrated the ókwu muó , talkless of ima Nmanwu, we remain political neophytes and those of us that think self the POLITICAL POTENTATE should know that they have not even moved into proper conference of Real political accoytes,so what they see is  Siholte and Ugbogbe Ndi múó.


Until we start sponsoring our own into sensitive positions without asking or waiting for basket of appreciation, we can never level the Political mountain facing us, there is no POLITICAL certainty in Igbo man that he can look around anywhere and say "It's my Turn", we continue to dangle Political turubom turubom hoping to get Conjugal from egwu ónwa (Moonlighting). onye atufuho adighi atututa ,you must plant to reap.


Until we learn to act like other tribes that lay people at places of interest as sleeper agents and they grow over the years ,which will be used when the time arises,we shall remain the misfits and not only Minority.


Igbo Leaders, stop packing servants, breed replacement Men who can stand in your absence and create a difference. 


Many of our Leaders and politicians failed to know that most successful Caliphates have a circle of friends and retinue of disciples, they help each other to grow and if they can, they lift the person closest the ladder, knowing that once the person is up there , he will lift you and your own to lucrative positions, but Onye igbo will prefer to have many dependants and Zero empowered Soul from his divide. 


An Igbo adage provides 'Ófu ósisi adighi eme ófia'(A tree can't make a forest, instead it makes Orchard).


If you Merit Security details, be sure that those ghalu gi okirikiri are Umunne gi , maka Peace of mind and help them to climb into good positions. 


Give employment and promotion to Ndi be anyi , Just as other tribes do . 


Give more than alms to ndi nke anyi and stop trying to impress HOSTILES, ife ósókwólu gi melu nwa enyigi nwa anyi, he or she can never call you Daddy. 


Life is Short like it or not , if you haven't bring anybody to a wealthy State as a billionaire, just know you are utufuruku.


Patronize our Media Men and women , not just Using them as PENNY pitching Folks,they will be your voice when the Chips are down, never forget na Enyejue Dibia afó,óbua Mkporogwu na Ajó Ófia. 


Stop using our Youths as PA without Future, give them paying Jobs, so they be your back bone tomorrow. 


Ndigbo do not need FEDERAL Allocations, they need leadership in class of Michael OKPARA, Sam Mbakwe , Emeka Ojukwu, those who will turn our idle minds to creative resolute, then allocation will be bonus. 


We have enough potentials to place Alaigbo at Top of Continental food Chain, but what we have today are experimental madness amongst Glutton Men .
