The Irony Of A United And Indivisible Country by MrSocrate(m): 10:10am On Jun 06, 2021
THE IRONY OF A UNITED AND INDIVISIBLE COUNTRY.

A country filled with hatred and divisions, bitterness and suspicions, unforgiveness and fear of ethnic domination in both the young and old, the living and the dead from generation to generation is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where "unity" is more sanctimonious than human lives but the politicians "fight" to keep the country "united" by implementing divisive policies and the security agents kill citizens to uphold "the constitution" that contains this "promulgated united country" and the cycle has been from generation to generation and such country is said to be untied and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where governance is not all about the people but the president, religion and tribes, some citizens even claim to be more countrymen and women than others, yes! every region MUST vote for and support the president or get shortchanged and vilified; citizens, elected politicians and political appointees, legislature, judiciary and security agents MUST be loyal to the president or get tagged as enemies and risk removal or dismissal from the office but that country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where patriotism means die for, hail and support all government "policies" at all cost, and the citizens being innocently killed because of tribal and religious affiliation and properties destroyed all over the country from generation to generation but that country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where landmass and population are valued more than productivity and human resources respectively, merit crucified on alter of quota system, ethnic and religious affiliations, and citizens judged not by the contents of their characters and what they can offer but by their tribes and religious affiliations from generation to generation but that country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where agitations and killings, tribal and religious sentiments/crises only get worse close to elections because they are used as weapons by politicians to win elections and citizens seem unwilling to understand and change the narrative from generation to generation but such country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where the presidency is all about an Aide, tribe and religion and presidency being monopolized by individuals, region and religion and attack on president isn't attack on nationhood but attack on tribe and religion from one regime to another regime is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where agitations for self determination mean felony, pro-government protesters guided by security agents but anti-government protesters are tagged enemies and killed from one regime to another but the country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where injustice is celebrated because justice is about religion and tribe, insecurities and economic decay aren't national issues but party and political affiliations are, from generation to generation there's no template for development but there is always a template for ethnic and religious advancement but that country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where insecurity, ethnic and religious sentiments/crises are evoked, electoral umpire manipulated just to maneuver election winnings, some even claim to be born to rule and others born to be ruled from one republic to another and the country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where insecurities are created and sponsored by the citizens and politicians and the government is unwilling to identify and punish the perpetrators, the security agents kill at will, extort citizens in offices and on highways and are not even save themselves because all over the country they get killed by sponsored agents from one republic to another but the country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where the justice system is bastardized, the legislature bundled and reverend security positions/ranks, government promotions, appointments and jobs monopolized by tribes and religious affiliation but that country from generation to generation is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.

A country where basic human rights are violated by government and government officials, jobs and sources of livelihood are lost due to government policies and ineptitude but and the citizens always supported and celebrated the government, citing tribes and religious affiliation from generation to generation but that country is said to be united and INDIVISIBLE.
