Nigeria is the most populous
country in Africa, and has been receiving advanced arms from the Obama
administration to fight Boko Haram. Despite this, Nigeria itself is on borrowed
time.The movement for an independent state of Biafra, which is in southeast Nigeria
is serious and its backers are growing. The Igbo and those tribes that
are connected to them have begun to return to their roots, which are directly
connected to the Israel.
Buhari understands
this and so he pushed back against inviting Bibi Netanyahu
to the ECOWAS Summit. If he were to let the summit go ahead with Netanyahu, Buhari would
risk being the vehicle that would allow Bibi to
commandeer West African support for Israel. West Africa is key for Israel for
multiple reasons. The most important is it gives Israel an ability to block the
movement of Islam South into the heart of Africa.
Secondly, Buhari has
his hands full with the awakening of Biafra in the southeast of the country.
If Biafra gains independence,Nigeria would not only lose a third of it’s
land, but the source of its oil. Besides the economic value Biafra
brings, an independent Biafra would rectify the historic wrong perpetrated
by European Christians and other colonial forces against the Igbo and the other
tribes of the Guinea Coast with Hebrew roots. Biafra’s restoration is
central to the growing rapprochement between Africa and Israel. If
allowed to continue, leaders likeBuhari are
on borrowed time.
One way for Israel to pressure Buhari is
to draw attention to Nigeria’s unlawful imprisonment of Nnamdi Kanu, leader of
IPOB. Granting Kanu freedom would be the fasted way for Islamists like Buhari to
feel the force of the coming pendulum swing back towards a sane West Africa.
A West Africa that cherishes its lost Hebraic culture and works to
safeguard its burgeoning relationship with Israel.
