To all the innocent lives lost in yesterday's carnage, may their souls rest in peace.  May God comfort their loved ones, Amen.


Currently there are three governments running simultaneously in this country -  1) An elected but weak government led by GEJ,  2) an unelected government that refuses to recognize the elected government and 3) an interest group that refuses to yield its grip on the economy.  Everyone else beside these three are bench warmers in Abuja, following the random flow of events, happy for what the day brings and scared to rock the boat.

boko is an auxiliary of 2 and oil subsidy is core to the interest of 3. 

Gbawe:

very succinct analysis of what obtains currently. 2 , in the end , will likely get its way because of how 1 is too compromised to ever move decisively and destroy 2. Very easy for 2 to act boldly because it is conscious of how 1, via how it came to inherit office,  will never have the forthrightness to expose and tackle 2 publicly.  

The efficacy and impunity of 2 also grows in direct relation to how 3 is too hideously avaricious to ever embrace the self-sacrifice that will support 1 to liberate Nigeria from the madness 2 wishes to create by all means. All in all, we are all to blame. We let a vacuous class of greedy empty barrels (OBJ, IBB, Anenih et al) oversee the recruitment process that churns out the most influential leaders in the land for the past decade. When we all derelicted our duties, comically illustrated by our entertainers who danced like court jesters and composed "goodluck" songs, then perhaps we deserve what is happening now.

It is only in Nigeria that folks, because of religious and ethnic bias, would ignore those who have given it all for Nigeria to go and pick a man who stands for nothing at all and was mediocrity personified his entire political life. I am convinced that 2 will win while 1 and 3 remains composed of the same clueless underperformers too weak, compromised , greedy, unprincipled and selfish to move decisively and do what is needed to save Nigeria.

We must go back to board, discussion on how we can live together as a nation is of utmost important.

If not give every one to what he believe and way of live.

We must not be One-Nigeria, which we are not.

The security situation in the country is at a dangerous level which if not checked will lead to a bloody separation of the component parts of Nigeria. As it is now, I don't really know what to say about the whole Boko Haram escapades. BH are more daring than ever because their members arrested are treated with kid gloves by the govt. When I say govt, I mean ALL the arms of govt, not the executive alone. The Legislative arm are more concerned about her salaries and allowances, no legislative direction for the executive to act upon, on how to deal with the BH sect. The judiciary on the other hand, gives bail sentences. In fact, the only jail term the judiciary has given that I know was a mere 3 years term to a confirmed BH  sponsor.  Tell me, where is the deterrence to BH in all the activities of the court?

Do I need to mention how the police are sabotaging the govt little efforts in smashing the syndicate? It is obvious. While the BH are bombing police stations and killing the men, the police high command is busy playing politics of religion and tribe with a key BH culprit; allowing him to escape and insulting Nigerians with a co-ck and bull story of his escape.

These are really trying times for the govt of GEJ. The earlier he realises the implication of the unfolding security threat to the coperate existence of his domain, the better for him and us the subjects. The time is too ripe for drastic actions to be taken against any saboteur in his govt, whether political saboteurs or economic saboteurs. The era of "things will naturally sort themselves out" is over. GEJ must act NOW or expect a dis-membering of Nigeria in the nearest future.

Over to you, GEJ.
