Lets get it to land and move on to next issue. So Chioma, do the close---Ajulu.

Now that people who make good use of their "common" but very EXPENSIVE senses have brought their wisdom to end this unnnecessary street-fight, Nwa Aro is back!

As biafra did said, it is really painful to see so-called educated Igbos in Diaspora (some of whom hadly touch base) to always use their God-given talent to run themselves down instead of using same to bring even those who are willing to agree on with them on the GOAL, but like in all human endeavour see the road to reaching that goal differently. If these people cannot accept that we can disagree on the STRATEGIES, how them can they bring in those who do not even have patience to be told their plans?

With every due respect to the duo of Chiboy and NwaBiafra, (the former whom I can guarantee of his CHARACTER) after dealing privately with him, I do not think it is abnormal if doubting minds ask questions/clerifications or even cajole you when you bring up an issue and want to rally supporters. If you really men well, what you have to like Chiboy has been doing with his APGA fund drive is to use APPEALLING words to bring in the doubters from without and use same strategy to keep in those who are already converted by giving them every neccessary assurances all the way. But to descend as low as the Chiomas in the name of taking "action" is to say the least plugging the nose to spite the eyes.

After the experience some of us had in the past with some dupes who masquerade in diverse form, I for one has formed the habit of TESTING people whenever they come here with a "cause" (I guess that's what others do as well); to tempt them to see how serious or otherwise they are, and from the number of members who have expressed their disgust at Chioma's STRATEGY (not her idea), its obvious that she and others like her need to make complete overhaul of their STRATEGY.

Advice no be curse!

While some of you have been busy racking your brains on ways to stop me, I have been busy finalizing my proposal to the PTB at BNW, which I have just this morning submitted via the webmaster. If they accept my proposal, you will have the opportunity to learn how serious, committed people accomplish their goals.
Let me join others to welcome you aboard BNW. The portion of your post I have reproduced above is sweet music to my ears. It is a pity that aside from Ukaobasi and a few others the pertinent issue you have raised has been derailed. Sometimes I wonder if it is deliberate but I've learnt NOT to advise our people in this board any more. They are all more intelligent and accomplished individuals and are more interested in winning "debates" than setting and achieving a concrete aim. Yet, I'm not arrogant to assume or suggest that I have an objective response to our perennial distractions since I'm a willing part of this community.

The situation of things back home demands that every Igbo should search his or her conscience and attempt a measure of ownership. You ask about APGA members. They are safely fighting in a free yahoo forum arguing about who went to a better high school in BiafraNigeria. Some of them are the best writers there ever was, but they have allowed the types of dwarfish Aluko, Oyeyemi, Kayode samuel and Reuben Agbati to dominate the media arena.

Nobody is asking anybody to reinvent the wheel. Propaganda or information disemination has been with us from time "Imo River". Employing the tool of the media nnamdi Azikiwe and others were able to ease the oyibo man out of BiafraNigeria. Their mistake was that they stopped in 1960.

I am confident the PTB(figured out it means powers that be?) in BNW will support you in your sincere endeavour to contribute to the upliftment of alaIgbo. They have assisted me every step of the way including providing us with a private room for sensitive issues.

We are truly more than what we have become. I weep for alaIgbo.

I'm tempted to answer this question although I have passed it over and over but has proven to be attractive and silly for me.

There is nothing wrong with Ojukwu's campaign. Ojukwu is a household name both in Biafra and Nigeria. He does not need to have his picture in the front page of every Biafranigeria Newspapers for him to be noticed. He does not have an image problem and nobody in his camp is sabotaging his campaign. If anything has changed it is his physiological structure, of course he has gained weight , so what?. It has not affected his role model status or the intelligence he craved before or during the war. He remains our Odogwu nwoke and light of our lives wether your were born before or after the war. He is Biafranigerian history books. His image will always be a generational pride. He is our heritage unlike your Nwobodo.
For now the Yorubas are loud, vocal and endlessly loquacious but history has never been on their side and other ethnic group to them is non-existence "beeeeeeeeecause" their leadership revolves around Obasanjo and what a heck, enjoy it for Biafra/Nigeria has defaulted too many times.

AND FINALLY

quote:
Wether or not he [Ojukwu] wins the possible and mathematical probability to become the President of "Nigeria", come April and May, he would have restored the Igbo pride and the leadership on the national level needed for Ndi Igbo to show their right. Ndi Igbo, despite the war and by comparison is better off than any ethnic group in Biafranigeria, that is in non-governmental appointments. You betcha your life, I am a proud Nwaonye Igbo because the word hardowrk ryhmes with me.-------> WAYPOINT 1BIAFRA.

Waypoint, Nwobodo and Ojukwu are not even in the same playing field when it comes to personal achievements and you know it. Nwobodo is a self made man and beleive it or not, self mada men who know how to built, govern, better i.e Bill Clinton and the current President. Jim has created job and was responsible for the creation of three, count it three Universities in the SouthEast. They are Enugu State University of Tech, Ebonyi State University, and ASUTH now Nnamdi Azikiwe University, they are all campuses of the former ASUTH. You may not have heard of Nike lakeand resort but I am sure that Ojukwu must have excaped to it with Bianca, thanks to Jim Nwobodo and if you are ever at Enugu, book yourself into this place and you will thing that you are on a Bahamas vacation my brother. I can go on and on about what this doer has done but I am sure that you already know about all his accomplishments. While you are at it, can you tell me how Ojukwu makes his living beside interest from his father's money. I want to learn. Thanks. I still think that Nwobodo and the rest of the Igbo Presidential candidates should step aside for him. He has a better change of uniting the south east vote to make sure that the likes of Obasanjo and Nnamani don't get re-elected.

This sounds like someone whose achievement is only limited to one section of the Big East, his own clan. If he is such a viable and unscrutable candidate for a political office, he should run for governor in his own state. Ojukwu is a living legend. And comparing Nwobodo with Bill Clinton is well sugar coated. Jim Nwobodo is no Bill Clinton. Copy that?

Ednut:
Are you sure that you're convinced inside you that Nwobodo has a better achivement records than Dim Ojukwu, or maybe you are playing uncle's politics. what is your answer of Ojukwu's leadership of Biafra under military attacks from the Nigerian vandals and major military powers of the world, I think Ojukwu achieved what no other African leader (no matter how good) has never been able to achieve on the Biafran enterprise even under a heavy military seige and economic blockadge.

Where is the bonehead Nwa Biafra? I'm sure he is somewhere drinking peppersoup with money he embezzled in the name of Ojukwu's campaign. I warned you guys earlier but no one listened to me.

Tijani,

I'm here with everyone. I must admit I have not been posting much in the public forum, however, I have been busy behind the scene.

As regards the fund Raised, you need not worry because you did not contribute towards the fundraising as such I do not owe you or any other person that did not contribute to this noble goal any explanation. People that contributed money have access to A Call To Action Room and are able to get detailed information about the whole fundraising.

So eat your hearts out because you will never know and I bet it is killing you.

Nwa Biafra:

You are very funny. What is "killing" me, Ojukwu's campaign fund? You must be a dreamer. I look forward to seeing your take when your warlord Ojukwu will be disgraced in next week's election. Stay tuned.
