A MESSAGE TO RENO OMOKIRI FROM A CONCERNED IGBO By Nze Onukogu

DEAR RENO,
Please stop speaking for Igbos.You are not Igbo. Your wife is not Igbo and neither was your former boss Igbo.
Most of us don’t even know your state of origin. Are you Ijaw or Edo? Why haven’t we seen you talking about politics in yourNiger Delta region?We have watched the way you have turned from a fierce defender of GEJ and PDP to a fierce defender of Igbo.
What have we done for you to merit such goodwill? We are not the only tribe who voted your boss in 2015. He won the whole of Niger Delta. Why haven’t you bothered to fight for more inclusion of the Niger Delta. Why Igbos?Reno, what you are doing is very dangerous.
We live in a country that is very capable of genocide. We the Igbos have witnessed this first hand. 3 million of us starved to death (that is the population of some minority tribes in Nigeria). If we should face another round of genocide, let it be because of what we did, stop hiding abroad to instigate igbos.
Was it not a Niger Deltan (Kaduna Nzeogwu) that caused the first round of genocide? Do you want to be the 2nd Niger Deltan to cause the next round of genocide? What you are doing is reckless.Instead of using the word ‘Igbo’ in your post, why not replace with the phrase ‘some section of the country’. What you are doing is being careless.
You may have good intentions, but they are not wanted. Don’t speak for us. We have many Igbo activists that are bold, let them speak for us. Speak for your tribe instead.I know you are on social media so I expect you would get this message.
How come you never spoke for the Igbos when you had the ears of the president? Your pre-2015 posts have almost little orno mention of Igbos. Why now? You are being very reckless, and your gestures have overreached their welcome. This is not a game. Don’t allow us to start an online campaign against you.
We Igbos might just be the remaining audience you have, don’t alienate us with your recklessness.
Thanks and God bless.
