The Final Push For Islamisation in Igbo Land

The Islamisation of Nigeria is 90% completed remaining the "stubborn Igbos" as Buhari moves his Tanks to conquer Igbo land, while the ignorant ones and the selfish elites keep cheering him up.

It is disheartening that while other countries are working hard to develop their country, the lazy Nigeria's Hausa/Fulani's mission on earth is too Islamise Nigeria.

On September 6, 2017, the National Christian Elders Forum (NCEF) cried out that  a Jihad had a been launched in Nigeria. In a statement entitled, "Jihad in Nigeria: Burying The Head in Sand," the chairman of NCEF Mr Solomon Asemota (SAN), said, "The objective of the Islamists, the political Islam, is to supplant the constitution of Nigeria with Sharia ideology as the source of legislation in the nation.

Since the days of IBB when Nigeria was registered into Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) and billions of dollars mapped out for the project, the north has been angry that the project has not been achieved. 

Again the north has not forgiven itself since the return of democracy in the 4th republic when it lost political power to southern Christians. This was why immediately the late Yar'adua came to power they tried to coarse the gentleman into the Fulani agenda.

It will be recalled that in 2008 a memo from the Islamic north leaked to the media whose content was to urge Yar'adua to advance the cause of Islam in the country. The content of the letter was the exact thing we are witnessing today in Buhari's regime in the appointment of core northern Muslims to major sectors of the economy.

Yar'adua never obliged them. He died, and when Jonathan, another southern Christian took over, the north became more furious over its rule by Christian infidels which is against the tenets of Islam. They reinvigorated Boko Haram and made it more deadly, to advance the same cause they couldn't advance with power, and at the same time work towards ousting of the christian infidel.

It will recalled that Buhari lamented the 'extra judicial' killing of Muhammed Yusuf, the founder of Boko Haram, by the police under Yar'adua. But today the same Buhari is killing armless agitators with impunity

 The Use Of Taqiyya

In Islam, this is an approved deception. Lies are approved once it is used for the propagation of Islam. It's mainly a form of stealth or civilisation Jihad used in democratic setting. For example when the Fulani herdsmen struck for ethnic cleansing in Ukpabi Nimbo, Enugu State, the President told the world that the killers were foreigners from Libya.

Also it is this form of deception that made el-Rufai to submit an executive bill banning all forms of religious preaching and the playing of religious tapes even in one's car at a particular time of the day as well as open air gospel crusades except the approved ones. when asked, he said it was to checkmate Islamic extremism in his state. But everyone knew it was targeted at Christians only.

Also the subtle way of removing Christian Religious Studies in our educational curriculum and incorporating  Arabic/Islamic studies were all part of Islamic Taqiyya.

The Violent Jihad

This is the fastest method of propagating of Islam in the world. It was through this method that Constantinople, the capital of the East Roman Empire (Byzantine Empire) fell to the forces of Sultan Mehmed of the Ottoman Empire in 1453, ending the 1500 years of Christianity in the country till today.

ISIS, Boko Haram, Fulani Herdsmen, Taliban, Hezbollah, Al-Quaeda etc, are all propagating Islam using this method.

President Buhari of Nigeria too, is propagating Islam using this method.

All the middle east Muslim countries were conquered through the same way; and many of the Islamic countries in Africa were converted to Islam through this form of political Islam such as Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco, Mali etc.

The 'Stubborn' Igbo

Without being told, the Igbo is the reason Nigeria has not being Islamised till today. Despite all the pogrom, killings, brutalities, and magnalizations meted out to them to subdue them and kill their spirit, their resilient spirit keep them going as if nothing had happened.

No ethnic group in Nigeria will suffer what Igbo has suffered and survived it. Just like the Jews, they are hated everywhere in Nigeria yet they keep soaring.

During the Kaduna declaration on June 6, 2017, the Arewa youths, made it openly that the Igbo had been their problem in Nigeria.

In the leaked audio tape between Govs Shettima of Borno and Amosun of Ogun in April 2017, Shettima reeled out their clear marked out plans on how they are going to frustrate and kill Igbo businesses in Nigeria. In short in his own words, he said, "By the time we are through with them, they will be useless even in Southeast."

In the audio, Shettima had lamented that Buhari was too slow on their annihilation plan because of age factor, and that if Kwankwaso had won (Buhari at the primary), they would have finish the Igbo within six months of his administration.

Having seen Buhari's illnesses and the probability of having their Islamization agenda thwarted, they might have alerted the terrorist leader on the need to hasten up their total annihilation plan on the Igbo, in line with their Jihad mission. 

This may have prompted Buhari's recent deployment of Tanks, which had never been used to fight Boko Haram terrorists before, into the most peaceful region of Nigeria in the name of fighting agitations, just to kill Igbos and cow them into submission and subtle acceptance of Islam.

But he forgot that Sun Tzu, the ancient Chinese military strategist and author of The Art of War, said, "The victorious army wins first before going to battle, while the defeated army battles first before seeking to win."

Buhari's Pythons have gone to battle first before seeking to win in Igbo land, but they will surely be defeated by Biafrans whenever they decide to go to battle with them.
