Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, President Of Nigeria -
Aso Rock Villa -
Abuja, Nigeria -

Dear President Jonathan,

It is no secret that you are a Nigerian president by accident. When former president Olusegun Obasanjo single handedly picked you to be the vice president under Umaru Yar’Adua, nobody knew that he would eventually die in office. After his death on May 5, 2010, the Nigerian National Assembly confirmed you as the next president in spite of the objection of a majority of the northerners. You were sworn in office on May 6, 2010, to complete the four year term that ended in 2011. Then you contested the election in 2011, won it and are now serving another turbulent term that will end in 2015. During that election in 2011, we all know that the northerners killed lots of southerners, mostly Ibos, after you were declared the winner. The likes of Adamu Ciroma and his northern brothers threatened to make the country ungovernable for you.

It is very unfortunate that the northerners believe that the office of the president is their birth right. They believe that anyone else who is not a northerner or Muslim is not qualified to be president. This is their own concept of “One Nigeria.” They did not only make the threat, but carried it out by unleashing their secret army, Boko Haram, to make the country ungovernable for you. No president in the history of Nigeria has been given this kind of treatment. This is happening simply because they see you as coming from the wrong side of the country. Ironically, they are criticizing your administration as the worst, knowing full well that they are the ones who have created a hostile environment by making the country ungovernable. There is no president anywhere in the world that can accomplish much given the same hostile environment created by the northerners beginning on day one of your administration.

The northerners carried out their threat of making the country ungovernable for you. They have described you as weak and spineless. It is time you show the world that you are not weak and spineless. It is time you show the northerners that there will be no Nigeria for them to govern. It is time that you do for Nigeria what Mikhail Gorbachev did for the Soviet Union. I am not a spokesman for professor Ben Nwabueze, but this is exactly what he was trying to tell you when he told you to reform Nigeria and be a hero. Nigeria is not a single nation, but a variety of nations amalgamated in 1914 by Lord Lugard for British economic interests. This amalgamation will expire in 2014 and SHOULD NEVER BE RENEWED. British economic interests MUST NEVER BE ALLOWED TO OVERRIDE THE LIBERTY AND THE DESIRE OF THE VARIOUS NATIONALITIES THAT MAKE UP NIGERIA. They are all tired of this forced marriage and want to go their separate ways.

Please, President Jonathan, use this opportunity of the expiration of this amalgamation and show the world that you are not weak and spineless. This is the right time for you to join the exclusive club of brave men like Mikhail Gorbachev of the former Soviet Union. This is the right time for you to let go of Nigeria and allow the nationalities that were forced together for British economic interests to go their separate ways and become independent nations. It is now obvious to the whole world that this is the desire of the nationalities.

Boko Haram are fighting for the establishment of the Arewa Islamic Republic and they have the right of self determination as enshrined in the UN charter. As much as I hate the way they are going about it, by unleashing terror on innocent civilians, their Islamic republic is a certainty. The re-establishment of the Republic of Biafra is also unstoppable. The formation of the Oduduwa Republic is also coming. Some of these republics already have political structures all over the world and cannot be stopped by anyone. Please, do not go against the will of the people by trying to force them again to be one country just like Lord Lugard. Nigeria is already disintegrating, you just have to do the job that has been made easy for you by making it official and not allowing the renewal of the Amalgamation of 1914. Then there will be no doubt in anybody’s mind that you are not weak and spineless.

The truth is bitter and most people do not like hearing it, but I must tell you nothing but the truth. The Nigerian army cannot defeat Boko Haram. Nobody can defeat an ideology, and that is what Boko Haram represents. You can kill as many people as possible, but they will regroup and keep fighting until the Arewa Islamic republic is established. They have networks with other Islamic groups all over the world. It is the same reason the former Soviet Union was unable to defeat the Mujahideens of Afghanistan for almost ten years and had to pull out of the country. History is repeating itself in Afghanistan as the United States, the most powerful nation on earth, along with the allied coalition, have not succeeded in defeating the Taliban in Afghanistan. This is simply due to the fact that an ideology cannot be defeated.

The many sins of Nigeria have started to set in motion the forces that will cause its final disintegration. It is a country of lawlessness where anything goes.

Only in Nigeria will the blind not only lead those with clear, perfect vision, but also insist that he is the right person to lead them. It is also the same reason why all the oil wells are in the south and a morbid refinery in the north and none in the south. Can anyone explain to me why the northern region with no known resources, control more than 80% of the oil wells in the south while the south is left with 100% of the pollution and environmental degradation? It is only in Nigeria that elections are bought and not won. Traveling with a Nigerian passport to some parts of the world is like a death sentence. You will be humiliated, embarrassed and sometimes locked up in police cells. Thank God, I do not have any business carrying this death sentence called a Nigerian passport. However, I sincerely pity those innocent people carrying this death sentence called a Nigerian passport and have to be humiliated and ridiculed in most countries. Nigeria is synonymous with corruption and nepotism. Nigeria is a country where mediocrity is not only the norm but encouraged and rewarded.

In Nigeria, the only job available for university graduates is armed robbery/kidnapping. Is this a country or a jungle? Only in Nigeria will a politician get a headache and fly overseas for medical treatment while a poor citizen is left to die from chronic illness due to the lack of quality medical facilities. Nigeria is a country where the political class is not only the richest, but the only visible class. These corrupt politicians have mansions all over the world purchased with stolen money that belongs to the poor people of Nigeria. It is no wonder that many people are desperate to join the political class, even if they have to kill their opponent to get there. Only in Nigeria is a basic necessity like electricity considered a luxury. This explains why more people have died in this country as a result of toxic generator fumes than any where else in the world. Nigeria calls itself the giant of Africa, but the world knows Nigeria as the giant of corruption and mediocrity.

It is absurd to notice that the corrupt politicians in the country have started to fight each other in an attempt to position themselves for the so-called 2015 elections. Are these people out of their minds? Who told them that there will even be a Nigeria in 2015? Are they not aware that the amalgamation of Nigeria in 1914 will expire in 2014? This amalgamation document that created Nigeria was for one hundred (100) years only. Legally, this means that Nigeria WILL CEASE TO EXIST AFTER 2014. Anywhere in the world if a document is expired it is expired forever unless it is renewed. In my part of the world, if your driver’s license expires and you are caught driving with it, you will face a criminal charge for violating the law. If one can face a criminal charge for driving with an expired license, then explain to me why Nigeria will continue to exist with an expired document. It will be absolutely fraudulent after 2014 for anyone to continue to deceive people that Nigeria still exists. The truth is not only bitter, but sometimes overwhelming. No matter how you look at it, the truth never changes and must be accepted. I am not known to tell people what they want to hear, but what they need to hear. The truth can be bitter and overwhelming if you are used to lies that are camouflaged as truth.

I am not a prophet, but I foresee lots of bloodshed if anyone or any group of people manage to deceive the public that Nigeria still exists after 2014 and heading into 2015. The bloodshed will be so much that it may consume those trying to foist the expired “One Nigeria” on the people. If some of them manage to escape this bloodshed, they will face insurmountable legal battles from the nationalities. The disintegration of Nigeria has started and nobody can stop it. Again, the only thing you, President Jonathan, have to do is to make it official and not allow the Nigerian amalgamation of 1914 to be renewed and become the Mikhail Gorbachev of Nigeria. This will redeem your image as weak and spineless. Then the whole world will see you as a hero and welcome you into the elite club of brave men and women that have changed history for the better. May God bless the emerging republics of Biafra, Oduduwa and Arewa.

Sincerely,

Dr. Moses Nwaigwe

Well said.
We can't wait.
But don't forget Jonathan is also corrupt. He can't do it because he is spinless, as u said. All he does is smile sheepishly in front of a camera and said he 'doesn't give a damn' when asked important questions of National interest. If you expect your hero to give 'a damn' to this your open letter to him then you are as clueless as him at the top.
You want a fragmented Nigeria? Go to eagles square in Abuja and set yourself ablaze with a suicide note to that effect. We will pick it from there and start a revolution. No pun intended.
