GRAPHICS: Truths, lies and the Nigerian military
If you asked one of former President Goodluck Jonathan’s spokesmen, Doyin Okupe, to define “loudmouth”, his answer would go something like this: Kashim Shettima and others.
It was Shettima, governor of Borno State, in Nigeria’s north east, which cognomen is “The Home of Peace” but which had for the past several years now been the theatre of war- no thanks to the bloodhounds called Boko Haram on a purported jihad – who, in 2014, stated emphatically that Nigeria was, more or less, fighting the Boko Haram insurgents with bare hands. And, thus, opened the floodgates of abuses, threats, fallacies, deceits from folk in the Goodluck Jonathan Administration and those with allegiance to it.
Then came to town a new sheriff whose (non)verbal language and actions have brought to the fore what can be likened to Nigeria’s military in manacles.
Kashim Shettima was right. Who else was? Doyin Okupe was wrong. Who else was?
