We are back to the
rigmarole, a national
pastime of Nigerian shameless leaders, predominantly
self-appointed and never well meaning characters of our
mediocre leaders. Another brinkmanship is in the making
and the signs are bad and dreadful for the common man,
the masses of our nation who have so much at stake but have no voice to stress their interests
and no vote to make a legitimate claim. The president dictator and
the Governor are at
war. The war is gradually
degenerating and will swallow several victims soon.
Jonathan and Amaechi in better times, or so we thought Within a
short radius of the
Federal capital and right inside the Presidency that is popularly known as Aso Rock, a war is
taking shape with wood and oil making the fire thick from
President Jonathan sidekicks and Amaechi
messengers of destruction about
who swore to whom and who is right and who is wrong. At the
end of the day one must have to make way for the other, as
there are two captains in this
ship as it were.
As these two brinkmanship
develop and gather full momentum of destructive dimension, there is
the need to make it clear that the Nigerian people have gone
through a lot and are still faced with so much difficulties in their individual lives, difficult and rough enough to be forced into some new political struggle and
game of musical chairs. If President Jonathan really know
who is Governor Amaechi, then it
would not take law into his own hands; he must approach
the State Assembly with the evidence and ask the representatives of the River people to debate the issue and
cast a vote to either remove or retain Amaechi as River State Governor.
At the moment, our people are not clear on where the president stand and what actually is behind his conflict with Governor
Amaechi. A lot has been subsumed into the issue to the
level that it is being seen as a conflict between Jonathan and Amaechi. The impression has
been sold to the whole world by
Amaechi pen pushers that the issue at stake is Jonathan scheme
or is it hidden agenda to succeed him?
A lot of vendetta
is being read into the action of the president for the reason that he has not been democratic in
the way he handle the matter.
