The picture of a handful of APC Governors and President Muhammadu Buhari, which was purportedly taken in London yesterday, is old and fake.

I am convinced that President Muhammadu Buhari's spokesman, Mr. Femi Adesina, has now finally lost his mind. In his latest essay, titled "The Sons of Shimmei", he compared Buhari to the biblical King David, the greatest King that ever ruled Israel.

"The Supreme court did not raise a dead PDP, they only brought out the rotten corpse of a dead PDP for all to smell the bad odour"- Alhaji Lai Muhammed, Minister of Information, Daily Post, 15th July 2017.

"Treat the surrendering Biafrans well or risk their children rising again"- Colonel Phillip Effiong, Vice President of Biafra, 1970.

Those from outside Igboland that say that they do not want Biafra have missed the point. It is for the people of the east to make that call and to make that decision and not for you.

Let me make this abundantly clear right from the outset. I love and respect Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the supreme leader of the Biafran movement, the founder and convener of the Indigenous People Of Biafra (IPOB) and the man that I have appropiately dubbed as the Lion of the East.

To the people of the south-west, south-south, south-east and the Middle belt I say the following.

On June 27th 2017 in Daura, Katsina State one Tanko Abdullahi and one Mohammed Shehu, after a meeting of the Arewa Youth Council, issued the following statement. They said,

"All of us who do not speak the Hausa language in which Buhari allegedly addressed Nigerians are being told one thing: you do not belong here. Can anyone ever come up with a more powerful rationale for secession?"- Kayode Samuel.

I believe that it is not only the height of naivety but also deeply insulting to say that the way to stop the Biafran agitation is to offer the Igbo cake.

"I freed a thousand slaves. I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves"- Harriet Tubman
