Buhari's Government Ruthless On Ighoho, Kanu, Weak Against Bandits, Boko Haram, Kidnappers—Ozekhome

He noted that the Nigerian government has shown a tendency to maintain two separate laws for two regions.


Human rights lawyer, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN), has accused the Muhammadu Buhari-led government of chasing shadow with the arrest of the Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, popularly known as Sunday Igboho and Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).

Ozekhome in a statement on Tuesday said Buhari’s administration abandoned AK-47-wielding armed bandits, Boko Haram terrorists, and other deadly insurgents, including ransom-taking kidnappers, only to be running after Igboho and Kanu.

The statement read, “The Federal government appears supersonically effective and efficacious when it comes to arresting and repatriating dissenters and challengers of its morbid nepotic and sectionalistic government. 

“The same government paradoxically appears abysmally weak and hopelessly helpless when it comes to fighting AK-47-wielding armed bandits, Boko Haram and other deadly insurgents, including ransom-taking kidnappers who are almost kidnapping the very heart and soul of Nigeria on a daily basis. The Nigerian Nation appears captured by non-state actors."

He noted that the Nigerian government has shown a tendency to maintain two separate laws for two regions. 

He continued, “To me, this lopsided template demonstrates acute intolerance and ambivalence. It shows self-contradiction. It shows an inclination towards enforcing laws against certain people, against certain classes of people, while at the same time turning away the other eye in enforcing laws against the other preferred and pampered set of people.

“Such does not make a nation grow. Such does not make democracy work. Such does not build confidence and inclusiveness, the very reasons for the Igbohos and Nnamdi Kanus of this world. Such does not enjoin patriotism and the building of nationhood.

“The same government that is suddenly effective in the case of Nnamdi Kanu and Sunday Igboho has never been able to capture kidnappers, armed bandits, and Boko Haram that are daily ravaging us, turning Nigeria into a sprawling field of human carnage. They take ransom. Innocent schoolchildren are paid for. Where is the same government when kidnappers are demanding that the parents of kidnapped children should now be feeding them in their kidnap dens? 

“But, it suddenly becomes effective and audacious when it comes to arresting and even ambushing and attacking in their very homes, self-determination activists and crusaders. I am not impressed with this at all. The government may thump its chest for temporary gains. But, does this solve the problem? See this as merely pursuing butterflies while the house is on fire. Recall history: Major Kaduna Nzeogwu Chukwuma. Isaac Adaka Boro, Ken Saro-Wiwa. The Ogoni 5. Are we out of the woods? I do not think so. Or, do you?”

Very soon the North we realised that PMB has done more harm to the North than good. With the rate the bandits and Boko Haram are ravaging the north and the teaming jobless Almajiris, Northern Nigeria will soon become the Afghanistan of Africa.
If the heat becomes too much, other tribes will leave the North for the Northerners. Businesses and even farming that the North is known for will disappear. The Northern youths out of frustration will descend on the elites and politicians. By that time, the Southwest, South-South, Middlebelt and Southeast will be united in defending and protecting their lands.

PMB has set very bad precedent of Nepotism and has created more enemies both local and internationally for the North. The worst part is that he has used his Nepotism to destroy the unity of the North. The North Central States are no longer keen on one north slogan. What will the North do if in 2023 a Southern president use PMB's template for political appointments.

Imagine a Southern president making himself the minister of Petroleum and appointing Southern Christians into the following positions - MD of NNPC, Chairman of NNPC, Minister of Communication, MD NCC, MD NDIC, Minister of Finance, Inspector General of Police, Chief of Army Staff, Minister of Defence, Comptroller General Custom, National Security Adviser, Comptroller General. Nigeria Prison, Commandant NSDC, Immigration Head..................?

Will Muric and the North have the moral justification to complain?

Yeah! Being a northerner makes anyone immune to justice because they feel Nigeria is their fiefdom or vassal for them to rule with utter impunity.What an irony of a nation being ruled by terrorists and terrorist sympathizers.

And who the heck is this Peter Oparah you are masturbating with? May we know him?

We have seen pictures of government officials and forces romancing Bandits. We have seen videos of bandits openly bragging on how they make suya of the Nigerian forces, right in the presence of same government officials. What did buhari do?
How come Gumi knows where they are but the Nigerian forces don't?

How is an attack on BH, an attack on the north?
