DR. HARRIS CHUMA-ODILI
Ugly Experience
To drive through any police or army roadblocks in Anambra, Imo, Abia, you must alight from the vehicle and raise your hands up or you will be whipped. My driver begged me to take over the steering while he trekked but I refused.
Together with other road users we raised our hands up at all the checkpoints as we walked through. A particular soldier screamed at me ” oga, raise your hands well, na your brother Nnamdi Kanu cause am.” And Ogene Igbo obeyed seeing that he has engaged his rifle and pointing it on my head.
Never felt humiliated like this in my life.
So sad a day! When will the madness stop?
– Dr Harris Chuma-Odili, FCMsp (Ogene Igbo)

We will surely outlive our enemies.
We will surely outlive our enemies. To them it has always been humiliate them, to us we await freedom that must surely come.
It's better to receive all manner of humiliation now & gain freedom for Our future generations than to keep postponing the doom day. Whatever You do to please those people is a waste of time & energy as they see others as not worthy of living & should be eliminated, if not now it will surely come one day, so what's the need.
I don't know what you mean by outliving your enemies when Igbo are killing fellow brothers in police stations, helping criminals to escape, burning police stations and other civilian infrastructures. Even when you have your dream country are going to start from the scratch?
