It is amazing that Dr Reuben Abati would attach his name to any opinion he holds and gladly welcome the fireworks that comes with that effort. What then can one say about the so-called South-South ghost who decided to utilize the public profile of Dr Abati to project falsehood onto the public space?
We have all encountered and engaged all manners of supporters and vicious opponents of the Biafra project re-launched by Nnamdi Kanu. The debates have been most passionate. However no one was hiding under the bed. We all kept our heads above the parapet, receiving as much as we gave. We must commend Abati for recognizing early on that his informant was a co-conspirator bent on passing off false opinions as real. I have no proof but I suspect that the Buhari Media Group or is it Centre has a hand in this campaign of disinformation.
In this era of democratized access to media, no angry or disillusioned writer needs the help of Dr Abati to get to the attention of the public. I know for a fact that Dr Abati is an avid reader. He wouldn't be a writer if he doesn't read widely. So for a buffoon to presume to guide him to scoops he may have missed, ONLY ON MATTERS IGBO, is most suspect.
I recommend that Dr Abati reveals the identity of this mischief maker so that we can deal with him directly.
