![]() | Simon Ekpa is a man whose actions and motivations have been grossly misunderstood and misrepresented. He is not a bad person; he is a freedom fighter, much like Nelson Mandela. Both Ekpa and Mandela have dedicated their lives to fighting for the rights and freedoms of their people, but their journeys and the contexts in which they operate are quite different. In a country where Terrorist are reintegrated into the army by the Nigerian state. A Misunderstood Hero Simon Ekpa, a Finnish citizen of Biafran origin, has been labeled a terrorist by some , but this label is deeply unfair and inaccurate. Ekpa has been advocating for the restoration of the independent state of Biafra, a cause that is deeply rooted in the struggle for self-determination and justice for the Igbo people. His efforts to voice the grievances of his people and to seek a peaceful resolution to their plight should not be met with persecution. Instead, they should be recognized as a legitimate struggle for freedom and equality. Mandela's Legacy Nelson Mandela is a global icon of freedom and justice. He spent 27 years in prison for his fight against apartheid, a system of institutionalized racial segregation and discrimination in South Africa. Mandela's unwavering commitment to justice, his ability to forgive, and his vision for a united and democratic South Africa have made him a symbol of hope and resilience. His legacy is one of peace, reconciliation, and the pursuit of a just society. Nelson was recognized a terrorist by the US unitl 2008. Comparing Ekpa and Mandela While the contexts of their struggles are different, the essence of their missions is the same. Both Ekpa and Mandela have fought against systems that oppress and marginalize their people. Mandela's fight was against apartheid, a system that sought to keep black South Africans subjugated and powerless. Ekpa's fight is for the rights of the Biafran people, who have faced marginalization and discrimination within Nigeria. Mandela's path to freedom was fraught with challenges, including imprisonment and international condemnation. Yet, he remained steadfast in his belief that a free and democratic South Africa was possible. Similarly, Ekpa's journey has been marked by significant obstacles, including being labeled a terrorist and facing persecution. Despite these challenges, Ekpa continues to advocate for the rights of his people, using peaceful means to achieve his goals. The conspiracy agianst BIAFRA is global due to its technological pontentials. Conclusion Simon Ekpa is not a bad person; he is a freedom fighter. His commitment to the cause of Biafra and his unwavering dedication to his people are reminiscent of Nelson Mandela's fight for justice in South Africa. While their methods and contexts differ, their shared pursuit of freedom and equality for their people is what defines them as heroes. It is time to recognize Ekpa for what he truly is: a man fighting for the rights of his people, not a terrorist, He is only but paying the price for total freedom from colonization. Ask your self why is Ekpa held when terrorist roam like Gumi roam free in Nigeria cause his Igbo. NELSON MANDELA Starving BIafran child and mother.
