while going through some articles online i came across this write up and i felt like sharing it here to hear peoples view.



When Nigeria Shall Be No More: Painting Scenarios By Leonard Karshima Shilgba, PhD



For a while I thought I should not waste my time writing to counsel Acting President Goodluck Jonathan. I believe that what I have counselled him to do in some of my previous articles are enough; it remains to see how he handles those pieces of advice. My focus today transcends the current distressful situation in Nigeria. Four important things must happen before a nation tears apart: 1. Total disregard for the constitution, public opinion, and visible authorities. 2. Exaltation of one part of the country over the rest in a blatant, unyielding, and unpretentious fashion. 3. Abdication of responsible duties by those constitutionally and lawfully charged with them. 4. Resistance to change in the overriding national interest by a clique, cabal, or mafia. The four things listed above spell the acronym TEAR. There is a role that the United States of America (USA) has been playing in the past few years that convinces me that the utmost collapse of Nigeria is a strange desire of that country. A prediction by the USA that Nigeria would break up in 2015 is definitely not news. What seems to be news now is the present effort by the USA under the Obama government to make that prophecy to come to pass. I teach at the American University of Nigeria, and happen to know that Americans do not just get involved in a project outside the shores of their country without a guarantee that they would dominate. The survival of America rests firmly on their ability to successfully manipulate world affairs (including engineering false wars); control the production and distribution of needed resources such as oil around the world; and determine personalities who must occupy positions of power and influence in superficially sovereign countries such
as Nigeria. We have many Nigerians who have taken up American citizenship. Surely, they could claim that they enjoy more rights as American citizens than they could enjoy as Nigerians. But one fact is this— America will never be comfortable with a Nigerian leader whose actions or policies will steer Nigeria towards the path of genuine independence, practical leadership on the African continent, and stable true democracy. Let me give an example. Would America support a Nigerian leader who would work towards stopping the export of crude oil to any country (including the USA), and would rather locally refine and export petroleum products? Would the USA be approving of a Nigerian leader that would take steps to take the ownership of our oil industry from foreign oil companies such as Shell, Mobil, and Chevron? American officials who have visited General Babangida and urged him to seek the office of President of Nigeria in 2011 could not have meant
well for Nigeria. The reported “pressure” being mounted by America on IBB to “run” (a euphemism for being imposed on Nigeria) for the office of President of the republic could never be in the interest of Nigeria. The Americans forced Dr. Abdullah to withdraw from the re-run of the Afghan presidential elections, favouring President Karzai. I wonder whether they considered the interest of the Afghan people. If Nigeria would break up, the Americans would definitely side with the group which controls the black gold. Our redemption as a people rests in our hands and that of God. If the Americans think that IBB’s return to power would be necessary, as reported, to restore confidence, build institutions, and provide the Nigerians with leadership, let me pose the following questions. And the Obama government should help in seeking for answers: i. Why did Babangida stage the 1985 coup? Was he actually a drug baron? ii. Didn’t IBB kill Dele Giwa in 1986? If so, was it not to cover up a drug-related case? iii. Was IBB not the person that eliminated both Abiola and Bola Ige? Can the Americans claim ignorance about Abiola’s death? iv. Did IBB not know about how General Abacha died? v. If IBB committed the acts mentioned in i)-iv), could the Americans help impose such a fellow on Nigerians and yet claim to be a nation that respects the sanctity of life? In 2006, I wrote in an article title “Nigerian democracy: matters arising” that I saw that none among Babangida, Atiku, Buhari, and Obasanjo became Nigeria’s president in 2007. I said that a dark horse would emerge. In fact, I saw that Babangida’s son Mohammed had died. I must say without reservation that should IBB make any attempt to regain power in Nigeria one way or the other, his end shall be like that of the biblical Ahab. A stray arrow shall pierce through his heart. Some of us have groaned for this nation; we have shed literally tears over this nation. We have also seen things about our land. Those who are playing God shall end up terribly! For the Americans, I have a word. Remember Babylon. Whatever the conspiracy of “power brokers” in Nigeria at the expense of popular choice, their conspiracies shall break them. Mark this; the hunter shall be taken in his snare. Before Nigeria breaks up, strong regional leaders must emerge. A country that just breaks up without discernible regional leaders who are repositories of regional confidence will definitely break up further. It is not news that the Muslim-Hausa- Fulani Compound has remained the epicentre of power allocation, location, and possession in Nigeria. Since 1959, when the British colonialists, under Sir James Robertson rigged the first national legislative election in favour of the Northern Peoples Congress (NPC), the North has always maintained the edge in political contests. It is always their dominated political party that “wins” the center. And in a country where fiscal federalism has collapsed,
the central power is what matters. A low level British Administrator, Harold Smith refused to comply with the directive to rig the 1959 elections in favour of the NPC, to the displeasure of Governor-general Robertson. But just like the press at the time refused to publish the truth, so also has the Nigerian press of today been guilty of silent conspiracy, hiding the egregious acts being committed by villains in power. When preparing for peace, prepare for war. This is a largely accepted truism. Should Nigeria break up according to ethnic, economic, or political interests, there may yet be the slim chance of a loose confederacy in the future, but then, on the basis of equality, mutually beneficial interests, and mutual respect. We must start preparing for this. I propose a natural division, which closely follows the River Niger and River Benue partitions. In this case, I am referring to three countries emerging. Benue; Cross-River; Enugu; Anambra; Ebonyi; Imo; Abia; Akwa- Ibom; Rivers; and Bayelsa would form one single country. Kwara; Kogi; Niger; Oyo; Ondo; Ekiti; Ogun; Osun; Delta; Edo and Lagos would form one single country. Taraba; Adamawa; Borno; Yobe; Bauchi; Gombe; Plateau; Kaduna; Nassarawa; Kano; Jigawa; Katsina; Zamfara; Sokoto; and Kebbi would make up one single country. The Federal Capital Territory shall be commonly owned by all the three countries, with equal rights. The above classifications are simply proposals which could be modified. It is imperative that discussions start happening at those levels of possible coalition of nationhood. After we have gone our separate ways, then at some mutually convenient time in the future, we can consider agreeable terms for a United States of Nigeria (USN). At the moment, my moods oscillate between utmost disappointment and fascinating suspense. The former, because Dr. Jonathan appears to be shaking like a reed in the wilderness; and the latter, because I keep forcing myself to believe that there is a spring of pleasant surprise that may yet come from this amiable gentleman. I wait and watch. Leonard Karshima Shilgba is the President of the Nigeria rally Movement (www.nigeriarally.org ) and Assistant Professor of mathematics with the American University of Nigeria.

Nice 1,its worth it,if you have the money cos its not just a gaming laptop but a beast...... I would love to lay my hands on that,imagine playing battlefield and fifa 14 at the same time and doing some after effects editing 'and all you got to do is to just switch between them'..

Menh its good to be rich...

skidrow

jazz me: help me with ma game pad... it was successfully installed but not working on my mortal kombat game

get xbox pad for pc its just 7k and save ursef from all the headache.

when the greediness and unthoughtful thought of our leaders kills the poor masses.

Countries where they value the lives of their citizens,they don't transport petrol on major trunk A roads especially when its situated in living enviros,most of the bunkering and pipeline vandalism has the hands of the top cabals in the country,petrol should'nt be transported on the main road no matter how small. How leaders are the ones killing us little by little by not doing the right thing.

The Nigerian rail road service was killed back the by the northerners who strategically encourage the transportation of goods through the use of trailers and tankers just because of their selfish interest and the money they realise from insurance companys when most of these vehicles have accidents.

R.I.P to the dead..... May dea soul find favour in the in the sight of God.

clemz85: op I didn't see where you wrote your offence,
tell us W H A T H A V E Y O U D O N E ? to her

its there now.
She dint send season greetings to her,'a classic western mistake'......in her words. I belive her cos i know how our people here think 'especially the elderly 1c'.

i don't think you have done anything wrong per se,but if not calling her as you stated was what angered her,well i think you bf has a lot of job to do.........there are times when we cover those we love up 1c in a while,he could have given his aunty a reason why you could not call her at the moment,and immediately update you on the situation and what to do.

TIDDOLL: jatt...me dey pipeline side....dey go skul on wednesday...hw i fit cum collect sum?

if u ar on watsapp jst msg me,if nt u can send me a text ,den i will call u,cos i don't pick numbers i don't know.

emmatok: LENOVO THINKPADS are the best laptops i have used.

EXPENSIVE

Mikocake: pls sir wat site do u use?? and can the fifa 14 run on a system of 3gb ram and 1gb video memory?

it should run,whats d processing rate and is it intel or amd?.
I use www.blackboxrepack.com
skrid row u can search for skid row online, u can also download on kaos krew website.

donhils: What in effect are you saying?

too many FBT online just search.

i swear una dey fall my hand. What da fvck will i do with mtn's stupid 4.5gb for 2500k.

I will rather wait for FBT. I can't dash any network in Nigeria my cash for some crappy data plan dat can' even stream enough videos online for the period of 30 days.

Go online and you see tutorials as heavy as 4gb, 2gb, 5gb and so on not to talk of files and softwares that are large,do these stupid network providers expect me to buy their stupid and expensive data bundle to satisfy my online thirst.:...........

it pains me when i read all these kind of news,the number of innocent people dying by the hands of these MOTHERFUC****.
I know of a family friend whose friend lost two handsome boys to a raid by boko haram,funny enough these boys just finished training in depot and they where deployed to borno,just wasted them....
What i keep wondering is that,why was'nt boko haram active during Obasanjo's regime?
Is it because Obasanjo would have crushed them even before dea birth? Or
Are they purposely trying to frustrate Jonathans goverment? Cos i know 1 thing for certain the hausa's can never afford Nigeria seperating,they have everything to lose,cos they have nothing,they don't go to school,they are foolish except politically, but if it is an effort to distabilize Jonathan's goverment,why can't the commander in chief for Christ sake man up and use the power bestowed on him to defend the country he swore to protect both from domestic and foreign enemies. Nigeria is too big and important for one group somewhere to hold ransom.
He should'nt expect the US to come to our aid,Nigeria is not Iraq or some middle east country that the US can just come in and misbehave anyhow,as corrupt as Nigeria is,we are a spot light in Africa that can't just be toiled with anyhow,so even the US knows that,moreso most of these developed countries like Britain,US and the likes only poke there nose into issues they know will benefit them, so mr. President for the love of God act like one,forget about 2015,solve the issues at hand first,so many people wish to be where you are for just a day.
Get intelligent and young chaps from the various security division in the country,pay them well,take good care of thier families,and you will buy thier loyalty,let them do a background check on all the major games in the country,publiz the name of all traitors in your goverment and kill them,' boko haram is as strong as the traitor in your goverment', equip the military with better weapons.
Enough is enough, let them know party is over.

seunwen2: i don try am for my m7 the stuff no work

ajiwipe fake lo ra ni yeeeeeeen

lance4luv: LoL.. It sounds interesting, I heard that the players faces in FIFA 14 are very realistic.. I'm only familiar with shooting n car race.. I'm currently learning PES 13, but Smajatt when u are running and a player is coming to mark you and u press 'turn', why is there an annoying "delay" of like a whole 2seconds before the player 'turns' and by then they would have collected ball from somebody.. Is there any way to increase the speed of response? or is that just how people play it?
.
In shooting games, aim, pull the trigger, head shot, tango down, "no single delay.."

@pes lol.
Dnt rily lyk pes,d tin no 2 real,fifa make sense wella.
I play fifa cos of d reality nd commentary run.
I play fps nd tps games too bt love rpg strategy games more.

lance4luv: Is there any single high quality game you don't have??

lolz sure na...
currently. playing fifa 14,menh dat game hard die

lance4luv: Is there any single high quality game you don't have??

lolz sure na...

lance4luv: .
Smajatt, I love u mahn!! All these games are on point!!, I wish I was in ilorin.

Download: Need For Speed Rivals to your collection.

How many Terabyte is your hard-drive?

Then also please Smajatt what are the properties of your system? How is it carrying these games?

Some of the games are pretty heavy, like that Call of Duty Ghosts is like 20GB and needs not less than 6GB RAM, 2.4GHz (intel), 512MB video memory.

Won't it be hanging?? (Esp. coz of the RAM)

My system properties: 4GB RAM, 2.2GHz (intel), 1760MB video memory. Pls will the game be hanging on my system? And what are your own system properties? And does the game hang on your system?

I love the way you are making use of the internet, MAXIMUM UTILITY!! ..download the life danu!!

Plus your system's fault might just be a ventilation problem, computers are built to "work" but under the right conditions, u might have put it on the bed blocking the fan's intake of cool air leading to excessive overheating damaging parts in the board.. (Just suggesting)
.
