Saraki, Sowore And The Wailers

Written By: Egbeolowo Ridwan

It would have sounded unpleasant to the ears of they that heard Martin Niemoller the day he said, " First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—Because I was not a Socialist.Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Trade Unionist.Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew.Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak
for me.
Niemoller spoke extemporaneously during the post world war in the west Germany.

The didactic aspect of Niemoller's speech one should know is, "whether you keep mute in the face of tyranny or not, you may be the next person they will come for". Sowore & Team Sahara have spoken and that is why they are hunting for them at all costs. Whether their charms will stand the test of time remains to be seen. The issue here is not just about Sowore &his team being sued to a Jankara court or not. The issue is that, what would become of the downtrodden majority if Saraki and his cohorts eventually gets away with this conspiracy? If the likes of Sowore continues to be tormented unjustly, what the future hold for me and you remains to be seen?

As we all know before now, Omoyele Sowore is a human rights and pro-democracy campaigner. He is the founder and publisher of the much-cited SaharaReporters.com, website of citizen journalism,supplying videos,photos,news stories and commentaries that expose official corruption and abuse in Nigeria’s government. while the other party is known for political horse trading before, then and now. A man whose political status is way bigger than anything before the rule of law.
As we all know that the greater part of the Nigerian problem is the ruling elite, selfish, greedy, unpatriotic and often lawless.

So, We should not be disgruntled and flabbergasted if someone like Saraki wants to sabotage the many years glory, beauty and fortitude of Saharareporters.
It is more or less a battle between the kingdom of light and the kingdom of darkness. Just that whenever i think about the likes of Saraki, i get tremendously and stupendously catapulted in a state of emotional paroxysm, because these people are nothing but an all time promoter of corruption, injustice and nepotism.

My advocacy here is not that of a prejudice but a fact that is beyond reasonable doubt. Sowore is not a perfect man; but a man of simplicity whose ideology is clear to all and sundry, except for those who belongs to the oppressing class.
Mere looking at the reign of the Sarakis, the reign that has not been challenged for over 35years.So, fighting a political giant like Saraki, poses a lot of risks to people like Sowore, who in their church mind decided to challenge these monsters in one way or the other.

Prior to this time, One of the repressive attempts meted out to Sowore & his team was the hasty, lopsided and draconian judgement by one Justice Oyinlola who may have chosen to be an instrument of oppression in this case. I sincerely know that If it were to be other media stations such as TVC, Galaxy, AIT, and the likes, Saraki and his cohorts would have finalised everything on phone without leaving their respective rooms. But as it stands now, the case is beyond phone calls and that is why they are running helter-skelter to implicate Sowore & his team by any available means. This is to show that Sowore and his team are intensively different and cannot be taken for granted by dubious means.

Though A lot has been said on the basis that the case shouldn't have been in the hometown of Saraki due to his antecedent and pedigree in the state. seriously, Looking at the Sarakis dynasty in kwara state, it is enough for one to doubt the authenticity and legality of any case filed against Saraki not to talk of him filing a case against an individual or group. What an easy road for him to get justice at all costs!
Why would he do that remains a riddle to those who do not understand the seed of corruption planted by Saraki in his hometown.
For example, do you expect Jonathan to file a case against Saraki in Kwara Sate? Do you expect Saraki to ordinarily file a case against Jonathan in Bayelsa State?

What am saying in essence is that the oppressors finds it easier to seek justice where their personalities are highly recognised. they do this in order to incapacitate the truth seekers.Even plato testifies to the fact that No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth. Well, No matter the level of hatred and witch-hunting by the Sarakis, the tenacity, temerity and intrepidity of the truth-seekers will continue to flourish as long as Karma is at work. Lies may never be discovered in twenty years but one day the truth will surely catch.

nice write up

before 2015 the wailers said SR is just a tool for the APC to seize power and paint Jonathan black but

- when SR gave reports of Buhari's sickness during the campaigns they believed it

- when SR gave report of Tinubu's VP dream as Buhari's running mate they believed it

- when SR exposed Babachir lawal and Abba kyari long before the senate started the lawal probe they believed it

- when SR told us Buhari has prostrate issues they believed it

- when SR exposed Buratai's Dubai property they believes it

despite all the above, any SR report on Deziani, Jonathan, PDP, Fayose, Dasuki, Ikoyigate and their adopted son saraki is always APC propanganda to them.

the truth is SR is God's gift to the common Nigerian. SR will never be gagged. SR has no political affiliation.


but the wailers in their glorious foolishness only chose to believe whatever favours them. pathetic people
