FROM POLITICIANS TO THE PEOPLE (THE TRUMP WAY)

FROM POLITICIANS TO THE PEOPLE (THE TRUMP WAY)

The change of leadership which took a new dimension started right from Africa (specifically Nigeria) and then diffused into the world. With all the political mind games, pretense and blackmail, the set-ups and money thrown around to turn the tide to favor either those in power or the most wealthy or influential.

The situation that ensued from the politics of Nigerian before and during the 2015 general election beginning from the lobbying, interests, doggedness and steadfastness in the face of challenges. Nigeria witnessed an election highly cantered on tribal and religious lines. A situation where the incumbent throw money around just to demean or bring their opponent down with cheap blackmails and intimidation.

Imagine a Retired General been ridiculed on the pages of newspaper and been ordered to premeditated debates whose modul operandi has been determined by the ruling class. People who have contested elections severally and screened to be eligible were been subjected to their boys antics just to bring them to disrepute. Rather than brand their paymasters, they resulted to tantrums and newspaper crucifixion and maneuver.

Such was the case in America.one could see how Obama choked so many cases brought against his party candidate just to ensure he stamped his authority as the president of America and guarantee his party by hook or by crook win the election. They swayed the people both on opinion, personality and even race. They went as far as to conscientizing the blacks that the rival who is Donald Trump is a racist so as to discredit Trump in the eye of the electorates.

One thing I learnt from the whole American scenario is that when the people are ready to get back power from the politicians, they do without war or crisis. Trump played their cards for the ruling class and they were shocked by the victory he got. Little wonder to still ridicule the so highly exalted office of the United States president, they opted to call for recounting and blackmails claiming Russia tempered with their cyberspace and when they discovered they can no longer sway the citizens,they deviced a new strategy by protesting to  present President Trump as a minority candidate who lacks the backing of Americans. The game is on! The heat is on!!

NIGERIA TODAY

NIGERIA TODAY

SOME YEARS BACK NIGERIA WAS TAGGED THE GIANT OF AFRICA NOT BECAUSE OF HER CREATIVITY BUT BECAUSE OF ITS ECONOMIC IMPORTANCE TO THE WORLD WHICH IS SEEN IN HER MAJOR COMMODITY “’CRUDE OIL’’. UNFORTUNATELY, THIS SO BLESSED COUNTRY HAS ABOUT 87% OF HER CITIZENRY WALLOWING IN ABJECT POVERTY. LEADERS WERE NOW KNOW BY THE KIND OF CARS, AFFLUENCE AND ILL-GOTTEN WEALTH WHICH THEY PARADE AND USE IN INTIMIDATING ANYONE WHO QUESTIONS THEIR ACTIVITIES.SOON IT GOT TO A HEIGHT IN A NATION AS OURS THAT FOR YOU TO ASCEND TO POLITICAL POWER YOU MUST BE SOMEONE WHO CAN CHURN OUT HUGE SUMS OF MONEY TO BRIBE THE SO-CALLED HIGH AND MIGHTY.

IT GOT TO A POINT THAT FOR ONE TO HOLD POLITICAL POSITION,HE MUST BE A KILLER OR MAIMER.THE RULING CLASS TOOK EVERYTHING FROM THE PEASANT ONES AT HOME RANGING FROM BASIC AMENITIES WHICH OUGHT TO BE THEIR BASIC RIGHT TO THEIR FREEDOM,EDUCATION BECAME SO EXPENSIVE AND FOOD REMAINED A MIRAGE TO THE COMMON MAN.

ONE MAY ASK .WHERE DID WE GET IT WRONG AS A PEOPLE?IT DID NOT START TODAY.LET ME TAKE YOU ABACK TO SOME LINES IN THE INDEPENDENCE SPEECH BY THE PRIME MINISTER TAFAWA BALEWA WHO RECEIVED  LEADERSHIP SYMBOLS OF OUR COUNTRY WHEN DECLARED.

    ‘’TODAY IS INDEPENDENCE DAY.THE FIRST OF OCTOBER 1960 IS THE DATE TO WHICH FOR TWO YEARS,NIGERIANS HAS BEEN EAGERLY LOOKING FORWARD.AT LAST,OUR GREAT DAY HAS ARRIVED AND NIGERIA IS NOW INDEED AN INDEPENDENT SOVEREIGN NATION……. AND IT GIVES ME STRENGTH AND COURAGE AS I DEDICATE MY LIFE TO THE SERVICE OF OUR COUNTRY…………IT IS ALL THE WONDERFUL BECAUSE WE HAVE BEEN COMPELLED TO WATCH ONE COUNTRY AFTER ANOTHER OVERTAKING US ON THE ROAD WHEN WE HAD SO NEARLY REACHED OUR GOAL………………IT HAS BEEN THOROUGH AND NIGERIA NOW STANDS BUILT UPON FIRM FOUNDATIONS………..WE ,THE ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE OF NIGERIA,CONCENTRATED ON PROVING THAT WE WERE FULLY CAPABLE OF MANAGING OUR OWN AFFAIRS BOTH INTERNALLY AND AS A NATION.HOWEVER,WE WERE NOT TO BE ALLOWED THE SELFISH LUXURY OF FOCUSING OUR INTERESTS ON OUR OWN HOMES………THIS IS A GREAT COUNTRY WHICH HAS NOW EMERGED WITHOUT BITTERNESS AND BLOODSHED,FINDS THAT SHE MUST AT ONCE BE READY TO DEAL WITH GRAVE INTERNATIONAL ISSUES…………..WE ARE CALLED UPON IMMEDIATELY TO SHOW THAT OUR CLAIMS TO RESPONSIBLE GOVERNMENT ARE WELL-FOUNDED.....’’

NOW LETS TRY TO DISSECT THE WORDS OF THE THEN PRIME MINISTER WHO RECEIVED OUR SYMBOL OF INDEPENDENCE FROM THE QUEEN FIRST HAND.

          ‘’……AT LAST, OUR GREAT DAY HAS ARRIVED AND NIGERIA IS NOW INDEED AN  INDEPENDENT SOVEREIGN NATION’’.

CAN ONE NOT SAY THAT NIGERIA GAINED INDEPENDENCE BUT LACKED SOVEREIGNTY SINCE THE NIGERIAN LEADERS COULD NOT SUSTAIN NOR IMPROVE THE NATION THAT WAS HANDED THEM?IN NOT A LONG TIME AFTER INDEPENDENCE,THEIR GREED,SCHEMING FOR POWER GOT EXPOSED AND IN NOT LES THAN 6(SIX) YEARS,THERE WAS A COUP LED BY MAJ. GEN. AGUIYI IRONSI.

RELIGION THE CHALLENGE TO AFRICANS AND NIGERIANS IN PARTICULAR

 RELIGION THE CHALLENGE TO AFRICANS AND       NIGERIANS IN PARTICULAR

GROWING AS A CHILD ONE THING ONE CANNOT FORGET IS THE EMPHASIS TO LIVE UPRIGHT.I CAN REMEMBER HOW OUR PARENTS WOULD TELL US TO DESIST FROM ACTS THAT COULD BE INIMICAL TO OUR LIFE AND THAT OF OUR NEIGHBORS.PARENTS WOULD ADVICE THEIR CHILDREN AGAINST ILL-GOTTEN WEALTH OR MATERIALS IN ALL MANNER. THEY WOULD POINT TO THE NEED TO BE HONEST AND SINCERE IN OUR DEALINGS.WHEN YOU STEAL YOU ARE BROUGHT OUT AND MADE TO SWEAR YOU WILL NEVER DO IT AGAIN.THESE TIME,THE SO MUCH CHRISTIANIZATION AND ISLAMIZATION HAD NOT GOTTEN TO THIS POINT WE ARE

WHY DID I SAY SO?SOMETIME AGO IT IS WITHIN OUR LIVING STYLE TO TAKE A LITTLE WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY BUT NEVER SUPPORT STEALING FOR PERSONAL GAIN ESPECIALLY IN OUR FARMING LIVES.BUT DUE TO THE RELIGIOUS EXPLOSION OF THE ABANDONED RELIGION OF WHITE MEN BY SAME WHITE MEN,WE SEE CERTAIN NORMS AS UNNECESSARY SINCE THE NEW GOD WILL GRANT US HIS GRACE ACCORDING TO THE ONESIDE TEACHINGS OF THESE WHITEMEN.

IN THE EARLY YEARS OF OUR INDEPENDENCE,HIGHLY RANKS CIVIL SERVANTS WERE PROMOTED AND RESPECTED FOR THEIR LEVEL OF HONESTY DURING THEIR SERVICE YEARS.TODAY DUE TO THE INDOCTRINATION OF OUR PEOPLE BY THE RELIGIOUS HOUSES,PEOPLE ARE CELEBRATED BY THE LEVEL OF THEIR STOLEN WEALTH.IT IS ONLY IN THESE WHITEMEN RELIGION THAT SUCCESS COMES BEFORE WORK AS IT IS IN THE DICTIONARY.THEY EMPHASIZE FAVOUR MOCKING THE BIBLICAL WORDS OF THEIR SCRIPTURE WHICH SAYS THAT FAITH WITHOUT GOOD WORK IS DEAD.

THE WHITE MAN’”S RELIGION CAME ALONG IT WITH IMPERIALISM,COLONIALIZATION AND CONSCIENTIZED EXPLOITATION.THEY MADE US BELIEVED IN THEM RATHER THAN BELIEVING IN US.IT IS IN THEIR TIME ALL OUR PRODUCTS WERE SEEN AND LABELLED ILLICIT AND THESE THEY SENT HOME AND RETURNED TO BE FANTASTIC PRODUCTS.THEY THROUGH THEIR RELIGION,RELEGATED OURS TO GOD KNOWS NOWHERE AND IMPOSED THEIRS AS A WAY OF LIFE.NOW I HAVE PROBLEM!IT IS KNOWN THAT CULTURE IS A WAY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE LIVING IN A GIVEN GEOGRAPHICAL LOCATION ACCORDING TO THEIR IMPACTATION.NOW THEY SAID WE SHOULD ABANDON OUR WAY OF LIFE SO AS TO EMBRACE THEIRS.

WHAT IS OUR CULTURE?

WE BELIEVE IN PRAYING THROUGH OUR ANCESTORS(THOSE BELIEVED TO BE WITH THE DIVINE AFTER THEIR JOURNEY ON EARTH).WE BELIEVE IN POURING LIBATIONS.WE BELIEVE IN CELEBRATION AND THANKSGIVING.WE BELIEVE IN INTERCESSION.AND MOST OF ALL WE BELIEVE IN DIVINITY. WE HAD CHIEF PRIESTS WHO CONSULTED THE GODS AND INVOKED OUR ANCESTORS WHEN NECESSARY. WE BELIEVED SO MUCH IN POWER WHILE PRESERVING OUR HUMAN DIGNITY. WE BELIEVED IN HUMAN SANCTITY AND PURITY.

WHAT IS THEIR CULTURE?

THEY BELIEVE IN PRAYING THROUGH THEIR SAINTS(THOSE CANONIZED AND BELIEVED TO HAVE ASCENDED TO Heaven to be with GOD).THEY BELIEVE IN RADICAL SPEAKING IN TONGUES AND INVOCATION.THEY BELIEVE IN CELEBRATION AND THANKSGIVING.THEY ALSO BELIEVE IN PRAYING FOR ONE ANOTHER(INTERCESSION).THEY HAVE PRIESTS AND PASTORS WHO CONSULTED THE DIVINE AND PRAYED THAT THE ANGELS GUIDE HUMANITY.THEY BELIEVED SO MUCH IN POWER THAT THEIR RELIGIOUS HOUSE DOES NOT TAKE ORDERS FROM GOVERNMENTS BUT THEY ALMOST DICTATES WHO LEADS IN GOVERNMENT NOT MINDING HOW HE GETS THERE.HUMAN SANCTITY AND PURITY

WHAT DO WE SEE TODAY?

WITH OUR WONDERFUL RELIGION REDUCED TO NOTHING,THE SO-CALLED RELIGIONS OF THE WHITEMEN(ISLAMIC AND CHRISTIAN RELIGION ETC) HAS NOT FARED BETTER. THEY NO LONGER PREACH SANCTITY OF HUMAN LIFE, PURITY NOR PROLIFE. ALL YOU HEAR IS PROSPERITY AND DEATH OF HUMANS TERMED ENEMIES AS AGAINST RELIGION.

NIGERIA’S BOMB BLASTS (OCTOBER 1, 2010 THROWBACK)

NIGERIA’S BOMB BLASTS (OCTOBER 1, 2010 THROWBACK)

SO MANY QUESTIONS REMAIN UNANSWERED IN NIGERIA.THESE QUESTIONS WHICH WERE SUPPOSED TO BE DIRECTED TO RULING CLASS BY THE ELECTORATES AND NIGERIANS KEEP LINGERING AND REOCCURRING. MOST RECENT THAT AM GOING TO BASE ON IS ABOUT ‘THE OCTOBER 1 BOMB BLAST AT EAGLE SQUARE IN 2010’’.

DURING THE NATION’S INDEPENDENCE CELEBRATION OF 2010, THERE WAS A BOMB BLAST WHICH HISTORY WILL NOT FORGET IN A HURRY.WE WILL NOT FORGET IT BECAUSE THE LIVES OF NIGERIANS WERE INVOLVED.A LOT OF LIVES WERE LOST ON THE ALTAR OF POLITICS.

THE REVELATIONS FROM THE REACTIONS, POINT TO THE FACT THAT THAT BOMB BLAST WAS FROM THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMP. HOW? IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE BOMB BLAST, THE FIRST STATEMENTS FROM THOSE AROUND THE PRESIDENT WERE INDICTING .THEIR WORDS WERE SO INDICATIVE OF THEIR MOTIVES AND INTEREST WHICH WERE TO SWAY THE PUBLIC TO BELIEVE THAT NORTHERN POLITICIANS WHO WERE NOT HAPPY WITH THE EMERGENCE OF PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN DID IT.

WHEN THE QUESTION OF IMPEACHMENT AROSE AND THE THEN SENATE PRESIDENT SAID IT WAS NOT AN IMPEACHABLE OFFENSE WHAT WAS HE SAYING? WHO COMMITTED THE OFFENSE AND WHAT OFFENSE?

AS A FOLLOW UP TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS, I WANT YOU TO READ THE EVACUATION NOTICE ISSUED AT THE EAGLE SQUARE AFTER THE NEWS OF THE TWIN BOMB BLAST ALONG SHAGARI WAY.

“WITH DUE RESPECT TO ALL INVITED GUESTS, DIGNITARIES AND ATTENDEES OF THE 50TH INDEPENDENCE ANNIVERSARY OF NIGERIA BEING HELD TODAY, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 1, 2010 AT THE EAGLE SQUARE ABUJA, THE MOVEMENT FOR THE EMANCIPATION OF THE NIGER DELTA  (MEND) IS ASKING EVERYONE TO BEGIN IMMEDIATE EVACUATION OF THE ENTIRE AREA WITHIN THE NEXT 30 MINUTES. THIS WARNING EXPIRES AFTER 10.30HRS
SEVERAL EXPLOSIVE DEVICES HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFULLY PLANTED IN AND AROUND THE VENUE BY OUR OPERATIVES WORKING INSIDE THE GOVERNMENT SECURITY SERVICES.
IN EVACUATING THE AREA, KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE FROM VEHICLES AND TRASH BINS.
THERE IS NOTHING WORTH CELEBRATING AFTER 50 YEARS OF FAILURE. FOR 50 YEARS, THE PEOPLE OF THE NIGER DELTA HAVE HAD THEIR LAND AND RESOURCES STOLEN FROM THEM. THE CONSTITUTION BEFORE INDEPENDENCE WHICH OFFERED RESOURCE CONTROL WAS MUTILATED BY ILLEGAL MILITARY GOVERNMENTS AND THIS INJUSTICE IS YET TO BE ADDRESSED’’. JOMO GBOMO

MEND WERE MADE TO ACCEPT THE BOMB BLAST  AND SOURCES FROM THE PRESIDENT SOLD THE IDEA THAT POWERFUL NORTHERN POLITICIANS SPONSORED THE HIT.EVEN AFTER MEND CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE BOMB BLAST THE DIFFERENT PRESIDENTIAL REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THE LIKES OF HENRY OKAH WHO WERE SUPPOSED TO PLAY THE CARD THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY NAIL OR PUT THEIR PERCEIVED POLITICAL TARGET REFUSED TO PLAY INTO A DEADLY DEN DECIDED TO INCITE MEDIA RELEASING SO MANY FAKE INFORMATION TO SWAY MEDIA AND PUSH THE SSS WITH PREEMPTED FACTS.OKAH WHO AFTER ACCEPTING AMNESTY UNDER PRESIDENT MUSA YARÁDUA WAS THEN SACRIFICED ON THE ALTAR OF POLITICS FOR REFUSING TO DO THE BIDDING OF THE THEN PRESIDENT JONATHAN. THE PRESIDENT AND HIS STRATEGISTS DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO HENRY OKAH IN FULL PRESIDENTIAL STRENGTH BY INVOLVING SOUTH AFRICAN GOVERNMENT WHERE HE WAS AFTER ACCEPTING AMNESTY.THEY CONTINUED TO SWAY MEDIA AND SENT HIM TO PRISON SINCE HE IS A NOT IN TANDEM WITH THEIR AGENDA.GIVE A DOG BAD NAME IN ORDER TO HANG IT.NIGERIANS LIKE FELA WOULD SAY LIKE ZOMBIES BOUGHT IT HOOK, LINE AND SINKER.
ON THIS CASE OF BOMB BLAST, CHIEF DOKPESI WHO LATER BOWED TO PRESIDENTIAL POWERS AND FORMER CAMPAIGN DIRECTOR TO IBRAHIM BADAMASI BABANGIDA WAS ARRESTED TO  ROPE PROBABLY HIS PRINCIPAL SINCE HE WEIRD SO MUCH POWER PERSONALLY.
TO SHOW HOW INSULTING THE RULING CLASS WAS, THEY CONTINUED SEVERAL MEDIA JINGOISM. GEJ WAS ONLY TRYING TO PLAY SCRIPTS PLAYED BY FORMER LEADERS MOST ESPECIALLY OLUSEGUN OBASANJO WHO MADE IT POSSIBLE FOR HIM TO EMERGE AS ACTING PRESIDENT AFTER SO MUCH BAGS OF MONIES HAVE CHANGE HANDS AND DAVID MARK HAS BEEN INTIMATED OF HIS GAINS IN THE IN-COMING GOVERNMENT. DAVID MARK WHO HAPPENED TO BE THE SENATE PRESIDENT AGREED WITH HIS FORMER BOSS AND ADOPTED A NEW LANGUAGE THEY TAGGED POLICY OF NECESSITY WHICH WAS NEVER PROVIDED FOR IN THE NIGERIAN CONSTITUTION.IT TAKES AN OLD BROOM USED TO PARTS OF THE HOUSE TO TELL YOU THE AREA WITH DIRT. OBASANJO HAD TO COME IN AND INTERCEDED
THE PEOPLE WHO CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE BLAST WERE NOT ARRESTED EVEN WHEN GOODLUCK CLAIMED HE KNEW THEM. THE ONES WHO ACCEPTED AMNESTY WAS THE ONES ARRESTED AND JAILED FOR NO JUST CASE.
AFTER THE IMPEACHMENT MOVES ,REACTIONS TRAILED THE ACTION OF THOSE IN GOVERNMENT AND IT WAS OPINED THUS ’’ GOVERNMENT CLAIMS TO BE CARRYING OUT INVESTIGATIONS BUT ALSO FINDS TIME TO DRIP FEED MEDIA WITH SUGGESTIVE INFORMATION. SSS IS EVEN GOING AS FAR AS DOING PRESS RELEASES AND "LEAKING" CONTRIVED TEXT MESSAGES TO THE MEDIA. $20M TRACED TO POLITICIAN'S ACCOUNT" ETC. JONATHAN IS PUBLICLY FRATERNIZING WITH SELF CONFESSED CRIMINALS AND HOLDING THEM UP AS VIRTUOUS FOR THE STUPID REST TO SEE. HE HAS JUST EMBARKED ON A WASTEFUL JAMBOREE OF  N10BN FOR HIS EGO AND IS HANDING OUT A PALTRY N10,000 TO FAMILIES WHO HIS RECKLESSNESS HAS COST DEAR. PRAY HOW MUCH DID ATEKE TOM RECEIVE FOR COMING DOWN TO ABUJA? N2/3M? HENRY OKAH, HIS FRIEND AND BROTHER HAVE SUDDENLY BECOME THEIR ENEMY. WHY? HOW MUCH MONEY CAN DOKPESI PROMISE THAT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF NIGERIA CANNOT COUNTER? SUBORNING FALSE TESTIMONY IS A CRIME AND WHEN MATTERS GET TO THE FLOOR OF THE NASS, AND THEN WE WILL REALLY START TO PARTY. RIGHT NOW, THEY ARE HOARDING INFORMATION AND PLAYING GOD. TILL DEM COME. BUT GOVERNMENT AND ITS APOLOGISTS DO NOT WISH ANYONE TO COMMENT. THEY SAY, LEAVE US TO CONCLUDE INVESTIGATIONS WHILE WE CONTINUE TO LEAK ALLEGEDLY FALSE INFORMATION THAT DAMAGE OUR POLITICAL RIVALS. WHO BE MUMU?

FOR THOSE WHO MAY BE TOO YOUNG IN THIS VILLAGE TO KNOW THESE THINGS, WE HAVE BEEN DOWN THIS ROAD BEFORE. OUR SHAMELESS SECRET SERVICES HAVE ALWAYS MADE THEMSELVES AVAILABLE TO THE POWER OF THE DAY TO MISUSE. OBASANJO CLAIMED THAT BELLO FADILE AND GWADABE WERE USED TO ROPE HIM INTO A COUP PLOT. DIYA CLAIMS HE WAS SET UP BY BAMAIYI. OBASANJO HIMSELF DID IT WITH IYORCHIA AYU WHEN THEY TRIED TO ROPE AYU INTO A BOGUS TREASON PLOT.SO WE KNOW THE SIGNS AND WE SEE THEM AND IT IS ALWAYS THE SAME SECRET SERVICES INVOLVED IN THE COMEDY. THE GOOD THING IS THAT THEY ARE SO BUNGLING THAT IT DOES NOT TAKE LONG FOR YOU TO WORK OUT THAT IT IS ALL CONTRIVED.

EITHER WAY YOU LOOK AT THIS, THE PRESIDENT IS ON A DODGY WICKET:

HENRY OKAH CRIED OUT THAT HE WAS BEING ASKED TO TELL PORKIES. THEY SAID IT WAS A LIE. HEY PRESTO, NEXT DAY A BAND OF TERRORIST HAS BEEN BOSSED INTO TOWN TO COME AND SAY EXACTLY WHAT OKAH CLAIMS HE WAS ASKED TO SAY.

THERE IS ALSO CLEAR EVIDENCE THAT THERE ARE MEND MILITANTS STILL OPERATING FROM THE CREEKS OF THE NIGER DELTA EVEN THOUGH GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO DENY THEIR EXISTENCE. SO THE GOVERNMENT IS TELLING PORKIES WHEN IT SAYS MEND IS FINISHED.  NOBODY CAN POINT TO ANY HONEST ENTERPRISE THAT THE LIKES OF TOMPOLO OR ATEKE TOM OR BOYLOAF HAVE EVER BEEN INVOLVED IN. BUT THESE ARE THE PEOPLE WITH ACCESS TO OUR PRESIDENT FOR WHOM HE ACTS AS SPOKESPERSON AND CHARACTER REFEREE. ALLAH YA SAUWAKA!

FURTHER WHEN GOVERNMENT SAYS IT HAS 15,000 EX-FIGHTERS IN THE AMNESTY PROGRAMME, WHO IS CHECKING THIS? HENRY OKAH SAYS THERE ARE ONLY ABOUT 500 REAL EX-MILITANTS IN THE AMNESTY PROGRAMME. SO TIMI ALAIBE IS AGAIN HELPING HIMSELF TO THE MONEY FOR 14,500 PEOPLE? S

"IF THESE MEN ARE NO LONGER IN MEND, HOW WILL THEY KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE ORGANIZATION? IF MEND HAS CLAIMED RESPONSIBILITY, WHY IS THE PRESIDENT SO EAGER TO EXONERATE THEM? DOES THE PRESIDENT KNOW WHAT THE NATION DOES NOT? IF SO, AT WHAT POINT DID THE PRESIDENT KNOW WHAT HE KNOWS? IF IT IS BEFORE THE BLASTS, WHY DID HE NOT ENSURE THAT THEY WERE PREVENTED? IF IT IS AFTER, WHY IS HE NOT TELLING THE NATION WHAT HE KNOWS?" - BUHARI CAMPAIGN ORGANIZATION

"OKAH IS BEING VINDICATED BY THE PRESIDENCY. IF THE PRESIDENT IS INVITING ALL SYNDICATE GROUPS TO ABUJA TO COME AND SAY MEND HAD NO HAND IN THE BLASTS, DOES THAT NOT FURTHER CORROBORATE THE CLAIM BY OKAH THAT THEY WANTED TO USE HIM TO IMPLICATE NORTHERNERS?" - ACTION CONGRESS OF NIGERIA

CHIEF BEATRICE UBEGE OSHILIM(POEM)

CHIEF BEATRICE UBEGE OSHILIM

Charged to provide the best for her home

Happy to see her children see her build their Rome

Investing all her effort to achieve her family stands

Enduring so much to keep the home in good hands

Fearing not to be derailed in her dream to a dreamland

Beautifully created in time to share

Expensive yet always attending to people’s welfare

A special breed of her set in a glare

Time and tide she says wait for no one

Raised as a queen second to none

Instilling discipline in her subtle tone

Cheerful and determined to build whether alone

Enjoy Watching her young’s grow through her guild and under her bet

Unique and lively when met

Brilliantly thanking God her creator for her birth

Endearing her family to remain devoted to their creator and victories

Getting others in without boundaries

Encouraging all who encounters her not to build enemies

On to us a daughter is born

Struggled to give us the best even in torn

Happy daily not minding the past pains

Indeed relying on GOD for gains

Loved dearly Mary her model

In good and bad she hope to be in eternal bethel

Minding her deeds to humans

DEDICATED TO MY MOTHER
