Ndigbo have been called to take a cue from the Jews by turning their challenges into victory story.
A University Don, from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Professor Ben Osisioma, made the call during a forum at Neni, Anaocha council area. Professor Osisioma said Jews take pride in individualism, encourage creativity and innovations like the internet noting that the Jews thrive on
networking .
The university Don, stressed the need for Ndigbo to build on the areas of their creative strengths and make the Igbo tribe an envy of all. He said Igbos operate in an environment where they are neither loved or appreciated but should strive to rebuild themselves in the Nigerian nation.
Professor Osisoma who recalled that the Jews resurrected from the graveyard of history to become a country to be reckoned with in the comity of nations, called on Ndigbo to put behind them the conquest of Nigeria Biafra war stressing that Biafra is not about secession but about tasking the creativity of a people.
Going down memory lane, the Professor explained that Ndigbo need a government that can stir up their inventiveness and ingenuity, mobilize them to work like before and as well provide employment for the unemployed youths.
He also emphasized that without education Igbos are endangered species and called on them to once again make education a vital part of their life pursuits.
