If Donald Trump should understand anything in his emergence as the 45th President of United State, he should understand according to Graham Jnr, the “act of God”. It is only an act of God, which can pave way for such an “inexperienced” presidential candidate to pass through the rigid and sophisticated American electorates and the Electoral College.
President Trump stood boldly for his faith and his political philosophy during the electoral period. His faith and philosophy attracted hatred for him, and openly he was viciously attacked, mocked and painted as a serial loser in the electioneering period.
Conventionally, it amounts to a folly and bad risk for anyone to support such a candidate portrayed by over 70% mainstream media as “serial loser”. In fact, it was indeed a “high risk”, but Biafrans took it upon them to support a man whose manifesto stands for freedom, justice and equity. That is whom we (Biafrans) are, one’s philosophy and way of life attract us to him and not who is beside, before and behind him.
The election has come and gone and within few days of post electioneering period, President Donald Trump and Mike Pence have expressed in possible ways their phobia for “injustice” in words and deeds. Their choice of expression speaks volume in today’s international affairs and discourses due to the quick and audibility of their messages to Assad of Syria, Taliban/ISIL in Afghanistan and the Al-Shabaab of Somalia.
While his hard approach on the aforementioned persons and groups made the dumbfounded, his soft approach on NATO member states has reawakened seriousness in them.
If Donald Trump should forget anything, he should not forget those that gave their lives for him on 20th January while he was taking the Oath of Office as the 45th President of US. These individuals were killed by Nigeria’s terrorists military for rallying for President Donald Trump.
That is how bad Trump and his believe in “justice” is hated in Nigeria. President Trump’s “Justice” mantra will be incomplete without seeking for justice for those gruesomely killed on 20th January by Muhammadu Buhari’s Army.
President Donald Trump has to ask questions about Biafran people and demand why they are being killed daily like chickens. We deserve to live and our abusers deserve worse than Syria, Afghanistan and Somalia’s measures. If Assad’s soldiers who started their human right abuses in the post 9/11 international system deserve missiles from Trump, President Buhari and Nigerian Army who have been killing Biafrans since 1945, deserves not MOAB but Hell Fire Missiles. Until Trump talks about Biafrans plight, the carnage against Biafran people will be on the increase.
