Until now, I find it difficult to understand the
usefulness of thugs newly branded as state boys in
Osogbo. Though the opposition party had attributed
their existence to your government, but your
government is talking less in proving innocence. Is it
save to then conclude that you have reversed the
state to NAZI Germany?
.
Only last year, members of the Nigerian Labour
Congress planned to take to the street to
demonstrate their worries over the backlogs of
unpaid salaries by your government. The planned
march was foiled for the fear of those who seemed to
be unknown to me but best known to Comrade Jacob
Adekomi and his administration in the NLC chapter of
the state. NLC dropped the idea of protest like hot
iron rod. You won the battle and the proletariat kept
silence in distress.
.
Not long after, some elders and notable people in the
state planned a summit to hit the proverbial nail on
the head on the current issue in education but the
same fear drove them beyond the proposed venue.
Your government allegedly tighten the noose around
them till they quickly ran for their life. You won the
battle but education is still in the mud gasping.
.
Once upon a time, some indigenous of the state
came together to express their grievances at the level
of colossal poverty in the state. The demonstrators
were beaten black blue by the state boys (so-called).
The people were subjected to punishment while
expressing their thirst for good food and
physiological needs. Again, you won the battle
maddening the oppressed to the state of silence.
.
Again, the Osun State University students recently
stormed Oshogbo to express their disagreement at
your impetuous idea on the recent renaming of the
tertiary institutions in the state but your impatience
and unwilling to be sensitive to the plights of the
poor students culminated the appearance of the
branded state boys. About 500 state boys were
hanging around in strategic corners to beat the hell
in the demonstrators out.
.
On the said day, men of the Directorate of State
Security Service (DSS) were at alert, they were afraid
the students might march and face the plagues of the
state boys. The department did not hesitate to warn
students repeatedly to perish the idea or marching,
but advised they devise other means to go about it.
.
Nigerian Police Force, as expected, are battle ready.
They have filled their guns and cocooned themselves
in bulletproof jacket, their tear gas cylinders were
shinning like bride's tooth. They were, obviously
afraid of something else rather than students, the
demonstrators. Perhaps the state boys would pounce
on the demonstrators as usual.
.
BUT something is fishy sir. The DSS and NPF had
expressed their worry claiming that the opposition
party might send thugs to hijack the peaceful
procession, but who is the daredevil opposition that
will do that when political seasons are no where
near?
.
THOUGH we knew that they were careful of one thing
and that is the mentioning of state boys. Does this
ring a bell sir?
.
The state boys don't come out when the favourable
rallies and epoch-making procession to hyperbole
your less popular government is staged in Oshogbo.
Does that ring a bell?
.
The same day people were beaten like olden days'
dress, your loyalists had a field day gyrating around
Oshogbo to exclaim your name and they were
magically insulated from the strokes of state boys.
Does that mean they work for you or they just fall in
love with your government?
.
To my utter surprise, the hoodlums are pro-
Aregbesola as none of their anti-social activities had
affected any of your processes.
.
Alas! Your party is vocal to the crusade of virtue but I wonder why you have remained contrary to the
motto of the state as if it is only good on vehicle's
plate number alone and not in demonstration. Why
would your government keep rearing snake in the
state forgetting that it will grow up to bite you and
your statesmen? One wonders what will become the
aftermath of your government when the cattle you
are feeding with grass from the common wealth of
the state no longer reap where they sow tears and
blood? The state would by then be an haven of
thousand of armed robbers, burglars, rural bandits
and the most fearful, terrorist.
.
Mr. Governor sir, we forcefully believe this state is
your second choice but you can prove our
informants wrong by putting an end to the activities
of the so-called state boys for what its implication
could be.- menace!
.
God help us as we continue to battle with economic
hardship whilst politicians thrives amidst wealth and
plenty.
