I am left distraught looking
around me in a country that ought to be great, standing tall shoulder, high
above its peers, yet crawls. I take a stroll through the winding roads of
social media and news that hit me is beyond belief, sad and discouraging but I see
the people of my Land finding humor in the midst of cruelty of humanity to
humanity. From the orgy for violence that pervades the legislative arms of government
both at State and National levels- ought to be respected gentlemen throwing
chairs at each other, fist cuffs flying in different directions, fists
connecting with the jaws with a crunching sound. Black eyed they return home, I
wonder what they tell their children, “son, when u are involved in politics you
must be ready to fight, break your opponents head at the slightest provocation”
(is it any wonder that cultism thrives, blossoms in our institution of higher learning)
- to the brazen looting of the nations treasury, why won’t they have sleepless
nights because of unemployment why won’t they?!!!. Daily we are made to realize
the ‘only’ way to get rich fast if you do not want to rob people of their hard
earned money through the use of the gun, is to rob them with a stroke of your
pen when you get into power through hook or crook. It’s a sad state of things
in my country where the child has no future from the day he/she is delivered,
social amenities have crumbled, we build monuments on dung hills, hoping the window
dressing will stop people from seeing the true state of things. We are easily
deceived or is it because we have given up on ever making things better that we
refuse to fight back. We live in a country where thugs, rogues men of low life
are imposed on us with impunity!!! Schooled yet uneducated men and women placed
in places of authority. It’s not news worthy anymore in my land that your are
robbed in broad daylight, neither is it any concern that you spent hours on a
journey of less than thirty minutes, the implausible has become the norm, the
wickedness of man to man is a daily occurrence each just waiting his/her turn
to hack down the next man at the next opportunity!!! Its mayhem here!!! I can t live in this mess longer than I have, thirty
four years of my life wading through murky waters that this country has been turned
into. It’s alarming that we wake up daily hoping to find food and a living in
the harshest of conditions. We shout ranka dede to the very people who oppress
us, they daily steal us blind, and taking for themselves and their children
what belongs to us all. Yet we see it not. Education is in shambles, healthcare
delivery is not any better, electricity is a mirage. We shout at the roof tops,
with our hoarse voice screaming the gospel of salvation, since that’s where we
find solace!!! Religion is now a cover for evil in my country!!! It’s pure stupidity
to have just one gun in my country, if you want to be taken serious have a cache
of arms and be sure the governments’ emissaries shall pursue hard after you to
grant you amnesty even if you do not ask for it. Today I heard Hamza is released
to the world to enjoy his loot and surely soon he will be welcomed back into
the fold to lead this nation!! Nonsense absolute thrash!!! Well is it new sef? Is
Bode not walking free of all encumbrance, was he not celebrated on his return
from the jail? While we tear at each other’s throat on social media, the ruling
class has no religion or ethnicity, they are bound by their greed for money and
they are bent on destroying our land! No matter how far we go, Nigeria is ours
and does not belong to the few who are at the helms of affair, they cannot
stand if we have not been aiding and abetting their evil deeds. It is we the followers,
we in our various cubicles where we have power that are quietly destroying the
land.
So I end my rant today, while we
at it lets keep destroying and aiding the leadership of this land to destroy
that which could become great, while pointing the accusing fingers at DAM, NOI
and Jonathan. BUY YOUR MACE; YOU NEVER
KNOW WHEN OR WHERE YOU WILL NEED IT!!
