'ALL LIVES MATTER', DO THEY?


Imagine you being shot in front of your child #sick. It's plain wrong! Was the little child's blackness blinding? Was her skin threatening?? He wasn't shot once, twice or thrice! #alllivesmatter but NOT all lives matter! The dead don't speak but the living bold enough should stand together in one accord and speak for the dead! 90% of all black lives killed had no criminal record! Our very own Martin Luther King Junior was gunned down and murdered in cold blood by a single gunshot while standing on the balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee. Who was his killer?  James Earl Ray; a white man!!! Was he killed back in retaliation? Hell no! Did his live matter? Yes because he was sentenced to 99 years in prison but died at the age of 70 due to liver disease. Did Martin Luther King Junior's life matter? Hell no! He was just a Black man/ nigger/ negro/ monkey fighting for a just cause; our freedom/ civil rights.

In Nigeria, the Igbos were and are still being massacred in the North, our hard working fore father's heads were cut off and bodies were stuck with bottles and mailed back to us in a gruesome state. We hate ourselves to stupor! 


Our foolish belly politicians are tweeting that #blacklivesmatter. Please, they need to swerve!

The good ones elected into office, suddenly dump their manifestos and start thinking with their blokos.

Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Efik lives that has been wasted since 1900, don't they matter? The joke of it all is that in Nigeria we are all BLACK but because of tribalism, some are blacker than others. The Hausa man feels he owns Nigeria, the Igbo man feels his being marginalized, The Yoruba man feels he's too educated to be led the Efik/Ibibio Feels that their oil should not be touched hence the sudden pipeline vandalisation.

Nigerian migrants in search of bread and butter are used as pepper soup, when they come back home nkor, na wahala! They will not rest! Ha! Thieves and armed robbers will drive them bonkers, kidnappers will bleed them dry, witches, wizards, juju priest will make them useless. Where can we run to? Where??? If you are rich, wahala! If you are poor nkor, wahala times ten!  And yet we preach #blacklivesmatter and #alllivesmatter but we don't practice what we preach!


We need to clean up our acts and get back to the drawing board! #enoughsaid #dropsmic
