Song of the day:
Nigeria jagga-jagga
Everything scatter-scatter
Poor man dey suffer-suffer
Gbosa! Gbosa!!
Gunshot ina the air..... (2x)
Eedris Abdulkareem, popular Nigerian hip-hop
artiste
When Eedris Abdulkareem crooned these
unforgettable blues about the murky and
excruciating socio-political and economic situation in
our country some years ago, many in government
quarters were outraged, but the realities today
prove that as a Prophet of the Masses, the Musical
Icon actually saw the realities we are witnessing
today.
Today, what do we call it when MR. PRESIDENT
doesn't "GIVE A DAMN" if N10billion was squandered
by the Petroleum Minister, Mrs. Diezani Alison-
Madueke, to fly private jets in two years?
What do we call a situation where none of the oil
marketers that stole N1.5billion subsidy funds in
2011 - for which Nigerians died and are still dying -
has been successfully prosecuted by any of the anti-
graft agencies?
What do we say when NNPC, without requisite
petroleum refining capacity, allocates crude oil to
itself to the tune of 445,000 barrels per day (bpd)?
What do we call it when we have four refineries and
we still import fuel from Niger Republic and Sierra
Leone?
What do we call it when MR. PRESIDENT cannot
differentiate between Corruption And Stealing?
What do we call it when soldiers are being used to
conduct state and local government elections?
What do we call it when doctors, teachers, lecturers
are constantly on relay to go on strike?
What do we call it when MR. PRESIDENT votes
$300,000 to illegally remove Governor Murtala
Nyako of Adamawa state, N500million to remove
Governor Tanko Al-Makura of Nasarawa State and
N75million to remove Governor Adams Oshiomhole
of Edo State, from office?
What do we call it when money is raised for flood
victims and it ends up in the campaign funds of those
that set up the committee?
What do we call it when monies are being raised for
2015 Campaign in the name of Boko Haram Victims'
Support Fund?
What do we call it when the Commander-In-Chief is
afraid to visit Chibok but only meets a handful
parents of 219 abducted girls in Aso Rock Villa?
What do we call it when MR. PRESIDENT spends over
N2trillion on Defence in three years but turns
around to borrow $1billion to fight insurgency?
What do we say when the Minister of Interior Abba
Moro has not been queried over the unfortunate
death of 19 Nigerians whose only sin was that they
asked to be given Immigration jobs?
What do we say then when unemployment situation
in our country has risen to cataclysmic proportions,
why the government stands beside and look?
What do we say about impunity in high places where
sinners are rewarded handsomely and saints
punished?
Is it not a shame that a country as rich as Nigeria,
where $20billion oil money was mismanaged by the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)
under the watchful eyes of the Minister of
Petroleum, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke and by
extension Mr. President, can turn around to borrow
$1billion to fight insecurity?
What do we call a country where its leading lights and
key opposition figures are daily target for
elimination, just like the recent assassination
attempt on a National Leader of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), General Muhammadu Buhari, in
Kaduna? Is that Not Scatter Scatter And Jagga Jagga?
It is left for Nigerians to decide if all these Jagga
Jagga And Scatter Scatter should continue in 2015!
Your vote is your power to stop these SCATTER
SCATTER And JAGGA JAGGA In Our Country!
Don't Be Deceived, Only Change In 2015 Can Save
Our Country From All These Jagga Jagga And Scatter
Scatter!
