TheCable

Nigerians have become completely de-sensitized and our humanity is gradually and daily ebbing and fading away. This is not healthy, on the condition that we truly desire to build a nation that works. The way Nigerians are daily being politically-led, they are being unsuspectingly militarized by our politicians. The kind of harshness that the common man is being exposed to on a daily basis is beggaring description!

We have gotten to an echelon in the life of our promising-nation—where most of our people do not believe in our country anymore. I write as an active and informed citizen of Nigeria, not as a supporter of any political party. The card carrying members of the party in power can kick against the prick of this truth, but it does not stop the truth from being what it is!

Each time our precious-people are bombed, kidnapped, beheaded and shot-dead, take a walk to the street of social media to see what most of our people say. When their fellow-citizens die, it does not move them an inch to any further extent. Most Hausa folks do not care a hoot when Igbo folks die and when Hausa folks die, Igbo folks do not care two hoots!

Nigeria gets divided some more on a daily basis, because this is the only way those who are leading us can only continue to stay in power. They are nattily and cunningly dividing us along religious, ethnic and political lines and the common man is too dippy to master their game-plan. It is my prayer that, even if Buhari is not going to achieve any other thing, he will be strong enough to unite us before he finally returns to Daura in 2023! But as it is today, it is falsehood from the septic-tank of misery that we are united as a nation. I advise PMB to make spur-of-the-moment trips to all our States—so as to have a perfect understanding of what I am saying here. Baba cannot afford to let a few of his team members shield him away from reality. It was after GEJ left power that he in the long run got to know the real state of things in Nigeria!

As an effect of what is happening in Borno State right now, I strongly advise Mr. President to shut-down the University of Maiduguri and redeploy every Corps Member—who is currently serving in Borno State. This counsel is very crucial till we are truly-sure that we can passably protect all our precious citizens in that part of our promising-country. For now, it seems we do not have what it takes to protect our people in Borno State!

A video went viral some days ago about a 200-level University of Maiduguri student—who was captured on his way to school. He refused to renounce Jesus as demanded and expected by those blood-sucking-demonic-terrorists and because of this; he was shot dead by an eight-year old terrorist!

President Buhari failed the late young-man from Plateau State, who was shot-dead by a nameless-child that we all failed to educate and build up as a proper citizen of Nigeria. All our political leaders failed Daciya. We all failed Ropvil. He was on his way to his higher place of learning. Our collective inability to protect him brought his dreams of a great tomorrow to an abrupt end. What a sad time in the history of our country.

Forlornly, he is not going to be the last that will be captured, if that higher place of learning is not quickly shut-down for now. We cannot afford to continue to play politics with the precious lives of our people, using mere political statements to protect them without having what it takes to truly protect them. Every soul lost through our own version of shallow-politics will be accounted for, when we all stand before God. No one is going to escape the coming Day of Judgment!

When it comes to an issue affecting the whole nation, in saner climes, they would step out of the muddy-water of politics and face it as one. We are where we are today, because we play politics with every fiber of our national life. As expected, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) spoke against the ongoing senseless-killings, affecting their members and leaders and instead of one of those being paid to speak for Buhari to sit where they sit, identifying with them, he took them to the cleaners, scoring a cheap political point! I still do not believe that the true job of those who are being paid to speak for Buhari is to speak against those that baba swore to protect.

I also advise Mr. President to quickly redeploy all our Corps Members from the Northeastern part of our country, because for the umpteenth time, it is not certain that we can protect them being there. We cannot afford to allow even a Corps Member to either be killed or kidnapped once again! And on the condition that this counsel is labeled irrelevant like that of Rt. General Danjuma, I humbly call on every parent to ask their children to return home before it is too late.

I, also counsel Mr. President to beef-up security in all our primary and secondary schools, and higher Institutions. It seems their latest strategy is to kidnap defenseless citizens of Nigeria, using them to either raise money to further their nefarious activities or kill them before the camera, enveloping our land with fear.

Lastly, I recommend that Mr. President change all our Service Chiefs. They have tried their best, but obviously, their best is not enough. One of the reasons GEJ was voted out was because of the rate at which Nigerians were dying on a daily basis. We were forced to go shop for an alternative and at the end of the day, we ended up with PMB, but the truth is; we have lost more people today than we lost during the dreary and bland era of GEJ!
