Twi friends were discussing as below
Peter: The world is in a mess
Yahaya: I wonder
Peter: World rulers keeping failing to learn:
Yahaya: What do you mean
Peter: Lets learn simple lesson. Southern Sudan is in a mess, Syria is a global issue with Europe practically running from pilar to post,
Ukraine no go area, Lybia wahala, Yemen nko, Iraq a continuum. The relative peace here we keep struggling with shattering it.
Yahaya: I dont understand you
Peter: Every part of the world suffers from one thing-problem or the other
Yahaya: Yes, what does that have to do with us?
Peter: Natural disasters in Japan, USA, etc. Civil unrest practically every where. Hunger in parts of Africa and the Middle East.
Yahaya: So what?
Peter: Its so remarkable that it should not be shoved aside. There is confusion everywhere
Yahaya: You mean?
Peter: It is indicative
Yahaya: Kai, so
Peter: They are signs
Yahaya: Signs of What?
Peter: Lets continue this discussion later. May be, lets look at some holy writings, just any of them may offer an explanation
Yahaya: Ok then, when you are ready we continue with the discussion. However, you set me on the path of some serious thinking. No
part of the world is free of heart wrecking troubles. The 3 years old washed ashore some days ago. what lack of peace and
presence of confrontation can cause. Relative peace is indeed better. So we do what we can to have.

owobokiri:
Punch and her village reporting. . All the "intellectuals" quoted in this write up are from the south west an APC stronghold. What will it take an editor/reporter to pick up his phone and dial say the HoD Political Science department Nnamdi Azikiwe University Awka, or that of uniport or Unical to have a feel/pulse of other parts of the country as it regards buharis desperation to persecute Jonathan and Jonathans clumsy attempt at a fight back? A vindictive process that is being baptised as "probe". . Why pass some clannish verdicts off as some national opinion?
