PoliticsYoruba To Igbos: “we’re Sorry For The Civil War Atrocities” – Femi Aribisala by iyyke(op): 3:51pm On Oct 27, 2015
Among the different ethnic groups in Nigeria, the Igbo are without a doubt, one of the most remarkable. So remarkable, indeed, that some have even traced their ancestry to biblical Israel, as the far-flung descendants of Jacob, the Jewish patriarch. Gad, Jacob’s seventh son, is said to have had three sons who settled in South-eastern Nigeria. These sons; Eri, Arodi and Areli, are believed to have fathered clans in Igbo-land and to have founded such Igbo towns as Aguleri, Arochukwu, Owerri and Umuleri. Igbo Genius. Even the bitterest adversaries of the Igbo cannot but admit that, as a people, they are very resourceful and ingenious. Indeed, this has often been the cause of their envy and dislike by others. However, more enlightened non-Igbo Nigerians see this as a cause for celebration. While today, the centre-point of Nigeria’s manufacturing is situated in the Lagos/Ogun axis, there is no doubt that the real locomotive of Nigeria’s indigenous industrialization lies farther afield in Aba and in the mushrooming cottage- industries of the Igbo heartland. Igbo-menIn one of the paradoxes of Nigerian history, the terrible civil war provoked homespun industrialization in the South-East. Military blockade left the Igbo with little alternative than to be inventive in a hurry. While Nigeria as a nation failed woefully to harness this profitably after the war, it has nevertheless ensured that the Igbo are at the forefront of Nigeria’s economic development today. Indeed, the way we disregard “made in Aba” today is the same way we disregarded “made in Japan” yesterday. For those of us who believe against the odds that Nigeria is the China of tomorrow, we equally recognize that the ingenuity of the Igbo is an indelible part of the actualization of that manifest destiny. Hall of Fame. The Igbo have been a great credit to Nigeria. They have given us a great number of our favourite sons, including international statesman Nnamdi Azikiwe; military leader Odumegwu Ojukwu; regional leader Michael Okpara; vice- president Alex Ekwueme; mathematical genius Chike Obi; literary icon Chinua Achebe; world-class economist Pius Okigbo; world boxing champion Dick Tiger; international statesman Emeka Anyaoku; and world-class artist Ben Enwonwu. Permit me to include in this illustrious list even some of my very good Igbo friends: Pat Utomi, Ojo Madueke, Olisa Agbakoba, Joy Ogwu, and Stanley Macebuh. Let us get one thing straight: Nigeria would be a much poorer country without the Igbo. Indeed, Nigeria would not be Nigeria without them. Can you imagine the Super Eagles without the Igbo? Not likely! Who can forget Nwankwo Kanu, Jay Kay Okocha and our very own Emmanuel Amuneke? Can you imagine Nollywood without the Igbo? Impossible! Just think of Stella Damascus-Aboderin; Rita Dominic and Mike Ezuruonye. And then there are the diaspora Igbo who many are unaware are of Igbo descent, including concert singer and actor Paul Robeson; Oscar award-winner Forest Whitaker; mega-pastor T.D. Jakes; Olympic champion Christine Ohuruogu; and BAFTA actor award-winner Chiwetel Ejiofor. You may well wonder why I have found it necessary to present this small litany of Igbo who-is-who. I think it is important to emphasise how the Igbo have been very vital to the Nigerian project. They have more than represented Nigeria creditably in virtually all walks of life. This makes it all the more absurd that this same people have been consistently denied the position of executive president of the country in all but six months of Nigeria’s 54 year history. Civil-war legacy Of course, a major reason for this was the 1967-1970 civil- war which had the Igbo on the losing side. But that was over 40 years ago. If there is really to be “no victor, no vanquished” in anything more than mere rhetoric, then the rehabilitation of the Igbo back into post civil-war Nigeria will not be complete until an Igbo man finally becomes president of the country. That imperative should be of interest to every Nigerian nationalist, committed to the creation of one Nigeria where everyone has a deep sense of belonging. The problem, however, is that the Igbo themselves seem to be their own worst enemies in this regard. They appear to be doing their very best to ensure that this inevitable eventuality continues to be denied and delayed. The Igbo need to forgive Nigerians. No one who lived through the horrors that precipitated the secession of Biafra and led to the civil-war cannot but admit that the Igbo were abused and maltreated in one of the worst pogroms ever. It was not just that they were senselessly massacred in their own country; it was that they were butchered. I remember vividly gory pictures of scores and scores of the Igbo with hands chopped up and with legs amputated. And then there were the ravages of the three-year civil-war itself, resulting in the death of millions of Igbo; many through starvation and attrition. The end of the war brought no respite, as the Igbo were pauperized by fiscal decrees that wiped out their savings and their properties were blatantly sequestered by opportunists. All this is more than enough to destroy the spirit of any group of people. But God has been on the side of the Igbo. It is a testament to their resilience that, in spite of this terrible affliction, they have survived, bounced back and have even triumphed in Nigeria. Forty years have now gone by. The Igbo may never forget what happened to them and, indeed, should never forget. But it is past time for them to forgive. We Are Sorry. This is one voice in the Nigerian wilderness saying to the Igbo from the depth of his heart: we are sorry. We are sorry for the way we mistreated you. We are sorry for the way we abused you. We are sorry for starving your children to death. We are sorry for killing your loved ones. We are sorry for stealing your properties. We are sorry for making you feel unwanted in your own country. Please forgive us. It is time to forgive us. It is way past time for the Igbo to forgive Nigerians. We beg you in the name of God. There was a civil war in the United States, but the defeated South rose from the ashes. Five of the last nine presidents of the United States have been from the South, including Jimmy Carter from Georgia, George Bush from Texas and Bill Clinton from Arkansas. The time is overdue for an Igbo president of Nigeria, but it is not going to happen as long as the Igbo continue to hold a grudge against Nigeria and Nigerians. There is no question about it: the Igbos cannot elect a president of Nigeria on their own. To do so, they have to join forces with others. They have to form alliances with people from other parts of Nigeria. That is not going to happen as long as the Igbo continue to bear a grudge against practically everybody else. The Igbo have a gripe against virtually all the people they need. They have this tendency to antagonise their possible alliance partners. They keep dredging up the past, refusing to let sleeping dogs lie. Until they drop these gripes, they are not likely to realise their dreams. Demonising Yorubas For example, the Igbo have this tendency to demonise the Yorubas. It is alarming when reading the Vanguard blogs today to see the animosity often expressed between Igbo and Yoruba contributors. The hatred is most unhealthy. Insults are traded with abandon. What is the point of this? For how long will the Igbo demand emotional retribution from every Yoruba for the betrayal of Awolowo? Most of the contributors were not even born when the civil-war took place more than a generation ago. There is now even transferred aggression against Babatunde Fashola, who made the blunder of repatriating some destitute Igbo from Lagos back to their home-states. The man has apologised for the infraction. He should be forgiven. Blunders are not the exclusive preserve of the non-Igbo. The Igbo have made more than a few themselves and will yet make others. Paradoxically, the redemption of the Igbos to prominent national office moved apace under President Obasanjo; a Yoruba man. Recognising that Igbos are some of the most seasoned, competent and experienced public-servants, Obasanjo relied heavily on their expertise. Thanks to him, we got Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala at Finance, Charles Soludo at Central Bank, Obiageli Ezekwesili at Education, Ndidi Okereke at the Stock Exchange, and Dora Akunyili at NAFDAC. Indeed, Igbo statesmen came into more prominence under Obasanjo than did Yoruba statesmen. But for some strange reason, this does not seem to have succeeded in assuaging the ill-feeling of the Igbos toward the Yorubas. Bad Politicians Within the framework of Nigerian politics, the Igbo also have a fundamental problem. Out of the three major ethnic groups in Nigeria, the Igbo have by far the worst politicians. They have no recognizable leaders, and have no discernible strategy as to how to negotiate power at the centre. As a result, the Igbo have tended to be short-changed at the federal level. Traditionally, the inconsequential ministries, such as the Ministry of Information, have been zoned to them. The Igbo need to work out a plan that will take them to Aso Rock. First, they need to choose and groom a de-tribalised leader of the Azikiwe mould who can be sold to non-Igbos. Then, they need to give him undiluted support. At the moment the internal politics of the Igbo militates against this. The Igbo seem to hate themselves as much as they hate others. They seem to fight themselves with as much venom as they fight others. Every potential Igbo leader seems to have more enemies within than without. This must not be allowed to continue. The Igbo need to help themselves in order that their friends can help them. In this centenary of Nigeria’s amalgamation, as we embark on the arduous process of crafting our future through a National Conference, we salute the Igbo for their fortitude and implore them to stake their claim in Nigeria. Nigeria cannot survive without the Igbo.
PoliticsInsurgency: Borno Elders Sabotaging Our Efforts – Army by iyyke(op): 6:22am On Sep 26, 2015
The Nigerian Army yesterday alerted the nation that some
elders and leaders of Borno state and other States of the
North East are working against the resolve by the military
and other security agencies to ensure they bring the
terrorists activities of Boko Haram group to an end by
December this year in accordance with President Muhammadu
Buhari’s directive.
These persons including top politicians are said to have gone
to the extent of employing the services of Marabouts and
other unethical means to reverse the gains made so far in
the war against insurgency. Consequently, the Army warned
that such elders, whose sinister machinations security agencies
were aware of, risk arrest and will be dealt with in
accordance with the law if caught.
A statement by the Acting Director, Army Public Relations,
Colonel Sani Usman said, “the Nigerian Army wishes to inform
the public and send a very strong and serious final warning
to some prominent individuals and political groups who hail
from Borno State in particular and North East generally,
that there is information of plans by some highly placed
individuals and political groups to undermine and scuttle the
fight against terrorism and insurgency in this country.
“The unscrupulous individuals and their cohorts are
determined to reverse the gains made and scuttle our
efforts of achieving the Presidential directive to defeat Boko
Haram terrorists within 3 months.
“They are enlisting the services of some Non-Governmental
Organizations in this grand design. “It has come to our
knowledge that they are employing all means to see that our
operation does not succeed in order for them to continue to
enjoy certain benefits.
“It has been revealed that they are employing the services
of marabouts and other unethical means in order to
frustrate our efforts and the operations in addition to
campaigns of calumny. “We are aware of their clandestine
meetings and other diabolical efforts to achieve their
nefarious aims and this will not be tolerated.
“Therefore, such individuals and groups should be warned in
unmistakable terms that anyone found will be dealt with
accordingly. “People should place the interest of the nation
above any personal gain or ambition.”

PoliticsStop Playing Politics With Hid’s Death – Fayose Warns by iyyke(op): 6:14am On Sep 26, 2015
Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose has warned Nigerian
politicians against playing politics with the death of the late
matriarch of Awolowo dynasty, Chief (Mrs) Hannah Idowu
Dideolu Awolowo.
Fayose, who spoke in Ikenne-Remo, Ogun State when he paid
a condolence visit to the Awolowo family, was accompanied by
the Senator representing Bayelsa East Senatorial District,
Ben Murray-Bruce.
He said the deceased should not be celebrated for political
reasons,advising that politicians should rather sustain her
legacy and that of her late husband, Chief Obafemi Awolowo.
The Ekiti governor noted that visiting the Awolowos should
not just be a one-off thing aimed at scoring cheap political
points and making publicity stunts.
Others who also paid condolence visits yesterday included
former Head of Interim National Government, Chief Ernest
Shonekan; prominent industrialist, Dr Oba Otudeko, and the
Olubadan of Ibadanland, Oba Samuel Odulana, who was
represented by the Osi Olubadan, Senator Lekan Balogun, and
Ekerin Olubadan, High Chief Abimbola Ajibola.
Fayose said “One thing I like to remind all politicians; it is in
our way to make politics out of people’s lives, to celebrate
them for political reasons.

PoliticsState Of Economy: We’ll Beg Nigerians For Patience – Buhari by iyyke(op): 6:58am On May 06, 2015
Buhari to plead with Nigerians for patience

Buhari, who recalled what the regime of late General Sani
Abacha did to establish the defunct Petroleum Trust Fund,
PTF, however said he would plead with Nigerians for their
understanding and patience even as he reiterated his
commitment to restoring security.
He said: “The expectation is too high and I have started
nervously to explain to people that Rome was not built in a
day. For this to be corrected, please, give the incoming
government a chance.
“Here, I will like to recall what happened during the Abacha
regime which led to the emergence of PTF. The Abacha
regime was a military regime and it thought that the only
way was to increase the prices of petroleum products. But
they were not taking Nigerians for a ride. They would have
said that if Nigerians decide to riot, they have the guns and
so they can have their way.
“They decided to tell Nigerians that they were going to
increase prices of petroleum products and the money we get,
we will put aside for development. That was how PTF came.
“So, this time around, under this system, to bounce back with
the issue especially with the backlog of salaries which are of
immediate concern to individuals and states, I think we should
look for a better way to address the issue and think of how
to persuade people to give us a chance to organise the
economy immediately and get something to pay salaries. The
people will give us a chance to stabilise the economy.”

Decayed infrastructure

Buhari who also lamented what he likened to destruction of
social infrastructure especially in education, however, assured
that his government would ensure that the country is
improved in all ramifications.
Buhari also thanked the governors-elect, re-echoing that the
formation of APC as an offspring of the merger of the
legacy parties earned them victory at the polls.
He said: “The decision to merge was a good one because this
helped us. At every step, there were many road blocks.
During the merger, APGA and DPP wanted to come in, but we
felt that if they are allowed to come in at that time, it will
be used to frustrate the merger and so we asked them to
stay action until after the merger. So we advised them to
just be observers.
“We decided that the nine major people that were leading the
Legacy parties should lead us to the first major convention
where the new party will then elect its new leadership. These
nine people were the national chairmen, the national
secretaries and the treasurers.
“The next step was what earned us respect. I had thought
that all INEC Commissioners were our enemies and they said,
‘no, take the documents for the registration back because
you need presence in all the geopolitical zones of the
country.’ There were lots of efforts by the PDP to frustrate
our emergence as a party.”
PoliticsGive Jonathan Benefit Of Doubt – Abdusalami by iyyke(op): 8:16pm On Mar 10, 2015
Kano – Former Head of State, Gen. Abdusalami Abubakar, on
Tuesday urged Nigerians to give President Goodluck Jonathan
the benefit of doubt on his promise that general elections
would hold as re-scheduled.

Abubakar made the call while fielding questions from
newsmen in Kano.

The former Head of State was in Kano to inaugurate the
Kano Informatics Institute, Kura.

He said Jonathan had in the recent Presidential Media Chart
promised to allow the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) to conduct the polls on the new dates.

“As our President, let us give him benefit of doubt and
accept what he said’’, Abubakar said.

He, however, urged INEC to ensure the conduct of free, fair
and acceptable elections for the sustenance of the country’s
democracy.

According to him, “I do hope INEC officials will conduct free,
fair and credible elections in the country’’, he said.

On his recent visits to President Jonathan and, Gen
Muhammadu Buhari (APC presidential candidate), Abubakar
said the visits were private. (NAN)

PoliticsZambian President Collapses During Women’sday Celebration by iyyke(op): 6:04pm On Mar 08, 2015
Zambia’s President Edgar Lungu collapsed on the podium while
presiding over a Women’s Day celebration in Lusaka Sunday —
less than two months after taking over from a leader who
died in office.
Lungu was rushed to a military hospital, but the presidency
later issued a statement saying he had been treated for
malaria and there was no need for concern.
“I am feeling much better and have been told I have high
levels of fatigue and should take some rest,” Lungu said in a
statement presented by his press office.
“There is nothing to worry about.”
Lungu came to power in January after the death in office of
president Michael Sata in October.
Rumours that Sata was ill had circulated widely before his
death, but were always denied by the government.
Sata was Zambia’s second leader to die in office in six years,
sparking calls for presidential aspirants to undergo medical
checks to guarantee they are fit.
Lungu, who fell after standing for some 20 minutes during
the ceremony, is rumoured to have diabetes.
Presidential spokesman Amos Chanda said doctors at the
military hospital had conducted comprehensive medical checks
and said Lungu’s results were good.

PoliticsChibok Community Thanks Jonathan For Sendingemissary by iyyke(op): 5:14pm On Mar 08, 2015
The Chibok Community in Borno on Sunday lauded President
Goodluck Jonathan for sending Alhaji Mohammed Wakil, the
Minister of State for Power, to reassure them of safe return
of the abducted students of the Government Girls
Secondary School, Chibok.
Wakil had last week held meeting with members of the
community in Maiduguri on the orders of President Jonathan.
Hajiya Hauwa Chibok, a spokesperson of the community, made
the commendation in a statement in Maiduguri.
“I, on behalf of Chibok women, write to thank President
Goodluck Jonathan for sending one of his ministers,
Mohammed Wakil, to sympathise with us and reassure us over
our missing daughters.
“Wakil briefed us on the security efforts being made to
rescue the girls and we appreciate it.
“We are from Chibok, not Damboa, and the minister met us
at about 10 p.m. on Thursday morning in Maiduguri.
“He was with us for two hours. We prayed together for our
daughters and we prayed for the military.
“On behalf of our people , we convey our appreciation for the
visit.
“Weprayed God to bless the efforts of our military,” she
said.

PoliticsFG To Drag Buhari To ICC Over 2011 Electionviolence by iyyke(op): 8:57pm On Mar 01, 2015
PEOPLES Democratic Party, PDP Presidential
Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO alleged Sunday that the All
Progressives Congress, APC spent N5 billion for the
appearance of its Presidential candidate, General
Muhammadu Buhari, rtd at the Chatham House in London
last Thursday, just as it described it as a jamboree and
monumental failure and that the Federal Government has
concluded arrangements and may soon drag General Buhari
before the International Criminal Court.
Addressing Journalists in Abuja Sunday, Director, Media and
Publicity of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organisation,
Chief Femi Fani- Kayode disclosed that the Federal
Government has concluded arrangements and may soon drag
General Buhari before the International Criminal Court, ICC
over the 2011 Electoral violence in the country to face
alleged charges of human rights abuses and criminality, just
as he urged Buhari to get prepared for the trial after the
elections.
According to him, the government would first demystify
Buhari by defeating him at the polls before dragging him to
the ICC against the backdrop that it will be risky to arrest
him now over the 2011 violence as it would raise dust, adding,
“And after its and General Buhari’s rejection at the poll,
General Buhari may have to prepare to face charges of
human rights abuses and criminality filed against him before
the International Criminal Court on account of the 2011
electoral violence in Nigeria.
“According to the African Herald Express report on the issue
published on February 20, 2015, Dutch lawyers– Prakken
d’Oliveira, a Human Rights Law Firm based in Amsterdam,
said it had filed a criminal complaint against General
Muhammadu Buhari at the ICC. Prakken d’ Oliveira, led by
Prof. Sluiter, Lawyer and Partner, is said to be acting on
behalf of the Nigerian Northern Coalition for Democracy and
Justice and two individual victims.
“Indeed, international focus is on General Buhari for the
2011 post-election violence and we hope that he is brought to
justice for the blood that was shed by his supporters in the
violence of 2011; and, we hope he will not precipitate another
round of violence in 2015 when he loses.”
PDP noted that the Chatham House event was an arrangee
designed by the APC like the purported London interview to
hoodwink Nigerians and prevent the APC Presidential
candidate from debating in Nigeria, just as it insisted that
General Buhari must debate in Nigeria, adding that he was
not originally scheduled to appear at the Chatham as it was
a last minute arrangement, aimed at diverting the attention
of Nigerians and the world from the fact that the trip to
London was mainly to seek medical attention and care.
Christianity EtcI Don’t Believe The Bible On Sex – Queenethhilbert by iyyke(op): 8:28am On Mar 01, 2015
Many writers have described Queeneth Hilbert as the most
beautiful actress in Nigeria. Right or wrong, the model
turned screen goddess is unquestionably beautiful with a
touch of class about her.
When I first interviewed her I felt an air of derision about
her towards men but she was quick to tell me she has nothing
against them although she has had her share of bad
experiences with men.
“ When I was trying to establish myself as a model, every
man I met wanted something from me. In this country, most
men you meet don’t want to do anything for you unless you
are ready to offer sex. Only very few men are nice. I don’t
know if it happens like that to other women but for me, it
has and that doesn’t mean I have anything against men. I
don’t” she says
And her feelings haven’t affected her desirability to have
sex with the opposite sex. “Well, you see someone and you feel
this guy will be good in bed, fine, go ahead and have it. Sex
is something you can have if you feel good about it. I don’t
believe all those Bible stuffs about sex” she quips.

now,when the puppet sacked your boys as corrupt
ministers. Why advocating for change now, when the
puppet refused to dump Sambo for another puppet. Why
advocating for change when he refused to kill Nigerians
indiscriminately. But rather he is exploiting all means of
dialogue. Unlike your Odi brutal killings and destruction.
Why advocating for change now,when the puppet refused
to twist governors hands with EFCC to pave his way like
you did. Why advocating for change now, when at 72
years, you still tell your children of 50years they are the
children of tomorrow. Why advocating for change

SPEAKER taking a swift? My comrades,my father once
said,if everybody is clapping before you walked
in,courtesy demand you ask why they are clapping,
before you join them doing so. Everybody wants change.
But I am astonished the way and manner these ex-
general joined the train of change. Is it that,this is the
first time they heard the word change? If NO,why did
they not change this country when they were given
opportunity. Why advocating for change now when the
puppet body language shows he Will not renew their oil
blocks licence Why advocating for change now,when the
puppet purchased equipment to monitor and reduce
vandalism. Why advocating for change now,when the
strong headed puppet wiped out their ghost names from
the civil service pay roll. Why advocating for change
now,when the puppet sacked your boys as corrupt
ministers. Why advocating for change now, when the
puppet refused to dump Sambo for another puppet. Why
advocating for change when he refused to kill Nigerians
indiscriminately. But rather he is exploiting all means of
dialogue. Unlike your Odi brutal killings and destruction.
Why advocating for change now,when the puppet refused
to twist governors hands with EFCC to pave his way like
you did. Why advocating for change now, when at 72
years, you still tell your children of 50years they are the
children of tomorrow. Why advocating for change
now,when the puppet refused to give you the fertilizer
deal. Why advocating for change now,when the puppet
refused to jail your enemies. Why advocating for change
now,when the puppet refused to rig election for your
daughter. Why advocating for change now, when in your
time railways were not working. Why advocating for
change,when in your time,our judiciary could not delivered
a fair judgement in favour of oppositions. Baba,Nigerians
are fed up of you sitting in Otta,deciding their future.
We want to decide our destiny with the help of God
(Allah). We want to practice true democracy by using our
votes to decide our future. Let the good works or
antecedents of our leaders speak volume for them. Just
after the presidential chat with Mr.President, we
discovered that, you,your colleagues,and errant boys,are
spreading false informations to pave your way to aso
rock. Lastly, I challenge you Baba, # Tinubu,# Atiku ,and
others to tell Nigerians you don't have oil blocks. Or you
guys are not fighting the last battle to protect your oil
blocks. They won't come out and speak my brothers and
sisters. They want us to believe they are fighting for us.
When they have their own local refineries at their
backyards. R..I.P Fela: Animals wan dash me my human
right.

LETTER TO BUHARI
Sir, let us examine your service records.
I consider your generation a very
privileged one, indeed. In 1975 at the
age of 33, you were appointed the
Military Governor of the North-Eastern
State, present day Borno & Yobe states.
In 1976 at the age of 34 you became the Minister for
Petroleum and Natural Resources. In 1978 at the age of 36 you
became the Chairman of the Nigeria National Petroleum
Corporation (NNPC).
Today the reverse is the case. Most Nigerians at age of 35 are
still
unemployed and still living with
parents. Many are still not married.
During your time you were already
Governor at this age.
One major reason for this unfortunate
turn of events is that many elders like
you have refused to voluntarily handover the baton to the next
generation.
Life should be a relay race where one runs his race and hands
over to the next.
In Nigeria many elders like you have run their races and are
still holding on
tenaciously to the baton.
But Sir, I have an important question
here for you. The question is simple,
MUST YOU SERVE NIGERIA AS A
PRESIDENT ONLY? IS THERE NO
OTHER CAPACITY YOU CAN SERVE US EXCEPT THE
PRESIDENCY?
It is very erroneous to imagine that you can only serve Nigeria
only in one capacity.
During the regime of late General Sani
Abacha, you accepted the appointment
to serve as the Chairman of the then
Petroleum Trust Fund PTF.
The general opinion was that you served faithfully in this
capacity. Well done Sir! But you never asked Abacha to vacate
office for you as your former subordinate in the army. Never!
In fact that would have been a dangerous move, if not suicidal.
Rather you served faithfully under your former junior in the
army. Sir, imagine if you take on another job like the Chairman
of EFCC or ICPC or NDLEA.
Nigerians actually need you to serve in
one of these capacities much more than they need you in the
Presidency. Mere mentioning your name as Chairman of EFCC
would drive many corrupt men underground. But you wouldn’t .
Either the Presidency or nothing. When are you going to
handover to the next person? It is either you do it voluntarily
or risk
disgrace at the polls. In 1983 at the age of 41, you became the
Head of State.
Most Nigerians in my age have not had the opportunity to
serve, but we still remain committed to the Nigerian
project. You should rather be graceful to God and to Nigerians
for the numerous opportunities that have come your way to
serve Nigerians. Others are begging for just one opportunity to
serve. Sir, you have to accept the stark reality on ground that
you have served your time already.
That is life for you. You run the race, you handover the baton
for others to run, you cannot hold on to the baton more than
is necessary. As a former head of State you are already a
member of the Council of State Meeting.
You have every avenue to channel your views across. You don’t
necessarily have to be in a front-line role, you can serve in an
advisory capacity. That is still service.
In conclusion, In fairness to you Sir, any of your Children would
pose a serious challenge to Jonathan more than yourself.
I do not see Nigerians electing a 72 year old former Head of
state to lead us in this Digital era. With due respect to you
Sir, you belong to the Analogue age and therefore, will not fit
in as president in this digital era.
This is the blunt truth. Please do not
enter the Guinness book of world
records on a negative note. Losing four consecutive Presidential
election would not augur well for your reputation.
It is in your best interest to assume your position as an elder
statesman and allow others to serve. Nigeria does not belong to
you alone. It belongs to us all.

* I have never seen him use his popularity to canvass for any
charitable work nor any humanitarian

by him, for him or through him.
* Asides from doing nothing, he has not improved himself

nothing.

ever been involved in any kind of programme to better the
lives of the Almajiris in Daura.
* His entire existence has not lead to any meaningful

Doesn't charity begin at home again?
