Ask an Ikwerre man his anger with igbos and he will
trace it to stories his father told him about what the igbos did to them
during the war. The pathetic thing about it is that the stories are
packs of lies piled up by the older generation and being passed on from
one generation to the other thereby imprisoning them in hatred and
backwardness.
While i was growing up and even till date, my father never ever told us anything about Ikwerre rather he always admonished us to make sure we excel in our various career, he encouraged us to keep improving our education up to PHD level. He made us to understand that life is full of challenges and we must always equip ourselves in order to sumount the challenges. This is the kind of discussion that an average igbo father wants to have with his children
It is rather shameful that while our fathers are urging us to excel in life, Ikwerre fathers were/are busy poisoning their children's heart with satanic lies about the igbos. What a shame. Little wonder Ikwerre youths are so lazy while cultism thrives amongst them. Cultists camps are scattered in various parts of the states and these foolish youths are killing themselves almost on daily basis. Sometimes one wonders whether these youths are under a generational curse.
I cant imagine myself wasting my precious time to tell my children negative things about Ikwerre or any tribe when i have more important info to give them so that they can excel in life.
Ikwerre is really a pathetic case.
