Two incidents in November may alter the course of the nation for a long time.
The Kano blast is a very sad and regrettable event and heartfelt condolence goes to the survivors and the families of the dead. This is one of the latest in the chain of book haram atrocities, but what is very unique about this incident is that it has finally pitched Nigeria Muslims against the terrorist. Even the sultan and Kano emir have denounced them and called for a fight against the terrorists. Henceforth we are not likely to hear any northern leader asking for amnesty for the terrorist; rather there will be an all out fight against the sect henceforth by all Nigerians, just the same way we united to fight ebola when we realized it’s a common enemy. With this united position, the end of BH is near. In fact there may be exposures and revelations and their financiers would finally be named
The other issue is the fall in oil price.In Nigeria, oil is our cocaine. All we do is to wait for the oil to be sold in the international market and we share the proceeds every month. No development, no need to build industries or infrastructure or any other facilities , rather we go for our shot every month in Abuja to get high and squander the money encouraging corruption. However the recent event would ultimately lead to increased demand for accountability and performance by all tiers of government. Also the state and local government would now learn to be resourceful and creative and improve their IGR and develop dormant assets.
In life, we can manage small problems, but big problems demand solutions. Eventually Nigeria would eventually come out better as we find solutions to our common problems. The only sad thing is we had to wait till it got so bad and many lives and assets lost

I concur.... I see both events as necessary evils serving as turning points in the history of Nigeria.
