About the on going INNOSONS case with EFCC (should be GT Bank), the Igbos are once more being called names and accused especially by some half baked journalists for ' over expressing tribal sentiments and crying wolves' .The condemnation by the Deputy senate President and some SE senators earned them been singled out as unpatriotic,though many well meaning politicians from the north also condemned the disrespect of law by the EFCC. As usual many stories are trending on the (IGBO) Social media, especially many venting their anger on GTBank which they believe is using the EFCC to destroy their or our (Nigerian) prime pride in industrialisation.
Well the Igbos or South Easterners may be called anything but what would you think or how could you behave when the person doing the arrest or whatever is imposed on the nation by what may not want to associate with tribal sentiments or Cabal and occupying a position unconstitutionally(not undergoing due processes ):having been rejected by the senate, therefore illegally imposed on the nation?
Did those talking of Igbo tribal sentiments think of this?If they did,may I know their views?
I doubt a real Igbo person would be ashamed to accept that he reasons as an Igbo person. I have Igbo origin and I admit that I am also influenced by the Igbo philosophy or philosophies just like that of the other places I have had reasonable learning process period, i.e places I have lived including Nigeria which though is still a disappointment but is home to the most wonderful peoples on earth.
Why then should I be embarrassed by the rantings of a culture-less 'EFEKEFE' (nonentities) who wants me to swallow every rubbish as not to be tagged an Igbo sentimentalist. He better look for his own philosophies and be proud of it.
