Why do I say so?
It is because Israel and Biafrans share the same fate of damaged reputation and identity by those who never wanted the light in them to shine. The same way those that colonized Israel tried in confiscating, confusing and erasing the ancestral Jewish heritage was how they succeeded, but not totally, in Biafra case. Same way the groundless word "Niger Delta, South south" was made to exist causing confusion amongs Biafrans was how the British named the Jewish ancestral land after a corrupt and groundless words "Palestine" which till today form the basis of Israeli-Arab League conflict?
Here we say things the mainstream media may not want you to know. Please follow me.
The unwishful experience of the Jews should serve as lesson to all Biafrans living in Northern and Western part of Nigeria as well as those in diaspora; always think home. The Jews abandoned their ancestral lands living luxuriously in Europe, unfortunately for them, the land they deserted was occupied by strangers, Palestinian Arabs. Nature abhor vacuum. Those that hated the Jews ceased the opportunity to distort everything to reckon with Israel, including the Israeli occupied territory. If not for the Holy Bible and of course Qur'an where it is unambiguously written that Yerusalayem (Jerusalem) belongs to Israel, there wouldn't have been any other evidence.
In as much that I am overwhelmed with joy over the recent global phase of Normalization Deal between Israel and some Arab nations, I was more concern with the brainchild. Yes president Trump played a vital role in that regard but I was contemplating how possible it was for some Arab nations to finally sue for peace and normalization.
In case you may not know, it is never in the dictionary of the Arab League to sue peace in any form with Israel; Infact it is contained in their resolution not to have anything do with Israel unless the land in context, which originally is of Jewish heritage, is given back to Palestinian Arabs.
It must be taken into consideration that Elohim is at work as same afloat of historic feat is concurrently prevailing in Biafra land as the middle belters have come to sue peace with the Igbos (Biafrans) by apologizing over the role they/ their fathers played during the war and Yoruba in strong alliance with Ipob to dismantle the British man made contraption, Nigeria.
As I was researching, I discovered that the same way Israel managed to make today's history a fruition is what Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and Ipob is relentlessly doing in achieving same simultaneous growth
Social Integration and Media Publicity.
Do you sincerely think the Middle Belt Youth Counsil would have apologized if they never got to hear the truth from Mazi Nnamdi Kanu on Radio Biafra London? As Mazi Nnamdi Kanu and Ipob is correcting the lies about Biafrans and Biafra that prompted the peace accord between Biafrans, Middle belters, Yorubas and Hausa indigenes, so did the Israeli started theirs since 1970
An Evolution occurred. It was a phase when the Israeli preferred the model of "Social responsibility of the press" over freedom of press. This means that the press is taken to be for the people and society. The tasks of the press is to make a code of conduct and follow it, to develop a standard in journalism, to make journalism better, to protect journalists and to have penalties if any journalist violates the code of conduct.
This way, the facts provided by the press are analyzed and interpreted so that the people get true information and understandable news. This helps maintain social harmony by revealing social evils like corruption and discouraging other bad conducts.
The media is taken as a place for the voiceless to have a voice and develop public opinions where each and every person has the right to speak, express and publish. It is considered not an end but a tool for social development. Therefore, the objectives of media are stated to inform, document, analyze, interpret, mediate and mobilize by creating and finding solutions.
The concept of social responsibility of the media states that "One's right to free expression must be balanced against the private rights of others and against vital society interest"---- Siebert, Peterson, and Schramm.
For the Jews, from 1970 media evolution, it was no longer the case of Pete Edochie granting interview to BBC, Channels TV etc to utter that Biafra land is landlocked in the name of freedom of press. No! it is now a case where Pete Edochie must be ready to entertain public questions as to why he made such false assertion?
It was no longer the case of the Jews relying on BBC, CNN or German TV of this world to grant an interview because they understood that eventually these mainstream media will edit the recorded interview, as BBC did in MNK case, to discredit them rather, they Jews saw need to launch their own media outlet - HaTelevizia HaKlalit or HaTelevizia HaYisraelit, in other to tell the story themselves, enlightening one another, detailing the true essence of their culture. The HaTelevizia HaKlalit ( General Television) or HaTelevizia HaYisraelit ( Israeli Television) was later known as Channel 1 once Channel 2 started broadcasting on 4th November 1993.
It was no longer a case where Biafran actors in Nollywood who are under financial inducement, will ignorantly depict an Igbo man as a ritualist on his arrival to Abuja or Lagos because in reality our people are known for hardwork. Do you understand?
In 1979, after nine years of the enlightenment phase in Israel, Egypt, a member nation of Arab league was the first to sign peace treaty with Israel followed by Jordan in 1994. The Jews take possession of social media alerting the world of their plights, providing proofs of their ancestral heritage and fortunately today, the same way Egypt and Jordan came to understand that Israel is for Peace, UAE, Bahrain and Lebanon have joined the normalization deal. Believe me, this success wouldn't have been possible without the Media evolution of 1970.

Do you now understand why Mazi Nnamdi Kanu ensured of Radio Biafra London and Btv, Ipob community radio app and others? Do you see why we must not support or engage in any form of false representation even amongst our film actors , religious leaders, sociocultural elites and politicians? Do you see why Mazi Nnamdi Kanu is never romancing or sugarcoating some people's mediocrity and foolishness?
Biafrans must see need to take social responsibility of the press, see reasons to believe and obey Mazi Nnamdi Kanu when he instructed that everybody must be on social media especially Twitter. Can't you see the development and victory so far? Unlike what the British government and Yoruba mainstream media made most people to believe that "Igbo man is the problem", it is now crystal clear to all that Igbo man was, is and will never be the problem but the Fulani.
