We are indeed a people living a life of diverse anomalies.

The word anomaly simply means a deviation from what is normal. Please can one explain in plain English how 500 human beings will be herded like cattle and they will disappear into thin air.

Please is their any place on earth where such can happen. Which part of the world my fellow human beings will daily killings be reported and we continue as though it is not an anomaly.

Our senators drive the latest cars and they have fleets of such expensive 'automobiles' and the masses are not bothered. They use our common wealth to build estates, take vacations abroad and laugh to our faces.

Our governors with the so called immunity they have commit all sorts of illegal acts and we all turn a blind eye. In the US a governor was forced to resign from office based on an accusation of rape.

But in our dear Nigeria, one man can appropriate the whole state budget for his personal use and nobody coughs or utters a word.
A big shame indeed to the people that occupy this geographical space.

Today the word 'japa' has entered our vocabulary. Our people will rather run away than fight for their rights. Some will say if you have the money japa for your generation.
Meanwhile the japaing individual is running to another man's house that stood and fought for the good of his generation.

For how long will we continue to hide behind one finger. Is it not high time we told ourselves the truth about the existence of this geographical entity that has brought only sorrow,tears and blood.

The forces pulling us apart are far stronger than the forces pulling us together. Even language that acts as a glue in most thriving nations is lacking here.

Seccessionist groups are daily growing stronger and rapidly multiplying.

What will really happen before we come together and take a firm and defining decision as regards our existence.

We need to tell ourselves the plain truth....
