Biafra: The War That Never Ended

Chapter 32

"He once told me that the people in the village we believe don't have carnal knowledge would do great development to our country as a whole due to their hidden talent and the opportunity they never  had to reveal their talent."

"And he also said when there is hope people tend to contribute and show their hidden talent and that helps us to learn more and explore more and also he mentioned that most of the expensive and beautiful natural resources lies in the urban area and that is where talent are not in the city."

"I think he was right and I definitely agreed to what your grandpa said he was a wise man full of wisdom but unfortunately death took him too soon I am so sorry for your grandpa lost "Ebuka said

"Thanks, I really appreciate that "

"I have this feeling that I am not fit to lead our people to the promised land ?"

"Stop procrastinating, you are definitely the chosen one, the gods of our land have proved that and you also have Proven to be worthy to take us to the promised land, came down brother and take a look at how far we have come, Imagine where we would have be if you haven't pilot the struggle for our freedom and that of our people"

"Actually you don't understand this is more spiritual and deeper than you think. What if we fail again, how can I face my ancestors ?"

"You made a promise and why would you break the promise now when we have come this far stop procrastinating and have faith in yourself because we are relying on you, so don't try anything stupid for God sake enough of your word of discouragement"

"Sometimes I keep asking myself if this is my destiny or my late parents destiny and not mine. What if the people I am fighting for turn their back on me ?"

"What if they are actually not interested in Freedom? Maybe my wildest imagination is deceiving me"

"For God sake, you shouldn't be saying this, didn't you see the large number of volunteers ready to lay down their life for the cause of this struggle?" Ebuka said

"Which means that is everybody is interested in Biafra they want a new life, and they want a better future for their children "

"Okay, I have heard you, I won't say this again"

"Better"

"Is Mary the only commander in all the unit ?"

"No, But she is the female assistant commander in all the units."

"Hi Mary"

"So how is your team doing?"

"My team is doing great and are ready for command sir. Is it a pleasure meeting you in person ?"

"Thanks sir"

"I see a lot of potential in you and I believe that you won't let us down and you will try your best to restore Biafra?"

"Thanks Sir, we promise that we won't let you down."

"Before I leave today, I would like you guys to promise me that you won't let me down."

They shouted saying

" We promise that we won't tell you down or sabotage the struggle for the restoration of Biafra, if we go against any of this promise we shall die a miserable death".

"You have proven to be worthy to be part of my team I appreciate your courage and I am using this medium to Thanks you once again for your patience and support which has made us come this far and I want to say without you by my side I won't have this far"

"Thanks once again"

They clapped
