Nigeria is a bundle of contradictions. It is a hypocritic nation. You cannot pin the country down on any issue, because while they will be saying one thing, they will be doing a different thing. Nigeria is a country with no principle, where two different rules apply simultaneously – one for the privileged; and the other one for the not so privileged, those who have nobody to speak for them.

Nigeria calls itself a secular nation, but if you go through the Nigerian Constitution, you will see the rules of one religion mentioned several times and over. In practical life, you will also see the Nigerian government dancing to the tune of music played by different religious men and women, sponsoring religious pilgrimages to Saudi Arabia and to Jerusalem.

In the year 2000, one man called Sani Yerima, who was Governor of Zamfara State in Northern Nigeria, woke up one morning and told us that he had declared Sharia law in his state. The then President Olusegun Obassnjo, waved it off, and called it “political Sharia”, which would fissle out with time. Obassnjo did not stand up to defend the Constitution which he swore to protect.

This gave other states in the North the impetus, the freedom, the audacity, to also begin to proclaim Sharia law in their different states, and nobody did anything to stop them. When these Northerners saw that Sharia law has succeeded in their states, and that nobody was challenging them, they came up with another monster called Boko Haram. Ever since, we have been battling these evil men, all to no avail.
