ARTICLE: NDIGBO, THE TIME TO UNIFY IS NOW - A CALL TO ACTION FOR A BRIGHTER FUTURE, By Sir Mishak Nnanta
The Igbo nation, a people renowned for their rich cultural heritage, entrepreneurial prowess, and resilience, stands at a critical juncture in their history. For far too long, internal divisions, petty squabbles, and a lack of cohesion have hindered their progress, leaving them vulnerable to external forces that seek to exploit their differences. However, the time has come for Ndigbo to put aside their differences and work towards a common goal. The time to unify is now.
As the President of the Igbo World Union, I have had the privilege of traveling far and wide, engaging with our people, and listening to their concerns. I have witnessed firsthand the talent, creativity, and determination that abounds within our nation. Yet, I have also seen the devastating impact of disunity, which has held us back for far too long. It is time for us to recognize that our strength lies in our unity and that together, we can achieve greatness.
The Igbo World Union is committed to fostering this unity and providing a platform for our people to come together and address our common challenges. We must learn from our history and the struggles of our forefathers, who fought tirelessly for our freedom and progress. We must remember the sacrifices they made and the mistakes of the past, and work towards a brighter future.
Our culture, rich in tradition and heritage, has the potential to unite and inspire people across the globe. Our entrepreneurial spirit has created successful businesses and innovations that have improved lives. Our resilience has enabled us to thrive in the face of adversity. However, we cannot achieve our full potential if we remain divided. We must put aside our differences and work towards a common goal.
The benefits of unity are numerous. A united Igbo nation will be better equipped to address the challenges facing our people, from economic empowerment to political representation. We will be able to speak with one voice, ensuring that our concerns are heard and our interests are represented. We will be able to support one another, uplift each other, and celebrate our successes.
The Igbo World Union is committed to leading this charge. We will work tirelessly to promote unity, understanding, and cooperation among our people. We will provide a platform for our people to come together and address our common challenges. We will engage with our leaders, our elders, and our youth, ensuring that every voice is heard and every concern is addressed.
I call on all Ndigbo, regardless of their location, occupation, or social status, to join us in this quest for unity. Let us put aside our differences and work towards a brighter future. Let us show the world what we are capable of achieving when we work together.
The time to unify is now. Let us seize this moment and create a better future for ourselves, our children, and generations to come. Let us work together to build a united, prosperous, and strong Igbo nation, where every individual can thrive and reach their full potential.
Long live the Igbo nation!
Long live the Igbo World Union!
His Imperial Majesty Amb. Sir Dr Mishak Nnanta (KJW, Ksm, JP), Gburugburu Ndigbo Dum is the President-General of the Igbo World Union, Worldwide.
