—-STATE OF THE NATION_—
PITY MY FATHER LAND.BAD MEMORIES PERVADING THE HORISON FOR REASON WHICH SHOULD HAVE ORDINARILY CALLS FOR ECSTASY,POMP AND PAGENTRY.
JUNE 12 1993 WAS A DAY MAJORITY OF NIGERIAN ELECTORATES FOR ONCE, DEMONSTRATED SENSE OF CIVIL RESPONSIBILTY TO ELECT LEADERS DEVOID OF AGELESS TRIBALISM ,VIOLENCE, NEPOTISM AND OBVIOUS ELECTORAL MANPULATIONS IN PREVIOUS POLLS.
SADLY HOWEVER,FEW CRAZY ‘EKU EDAS'(OFFENDING DESRUCTIVE RODENTS)IN THE REPUBLIC SPALATERED THE NATION’S RARE PALATABLE SOUP WITH THEIR GOD FORSAKEN BYE PRODUCTS LEAVING ON TRAIL TEARS, BLOOD AND DEATHS ON THE STREETS OF MAJOR STREEETS AND HOMES NATION WIDE FOR REASONS NOT TOO FAR FROM SATANIC AMBITION BIRTHED FROM THE PIT OF HADES.
THE MOST UNKINDEST CUT TO THE HEART OF THE NATION IS THAT THESE EVIL GENIUSES STILL LIVE IN OUR MIDST UNTOUCHED AND SOME BRANDISHING THE BANNER OF SAINTLY PATRIOTS AND STATEMEN.
ONE OF THE NUMEROUS PAINS OF THE ACTION OF THESE EVIL MEN IS DRAWING THE NATION’S POLITY SEVERAL DECADES BACK TO POLITICS LADEN WITH UNBRIDLED RELIGIOUS AND ETHNIC SENTIMENT AND WITH IT THE DEATH OF PARTY DISCIPLINE.
WITH THE JUNE 12 DEBACLE,THE BANNER OF OUR HEROES WAS STAINED WITH BLOOD AND TEARS AND HAS SINCE BEEN FOLLOWED BY RETROGRESSION IN ALL FACET OF ENDEAVOUR .AS WE MARK THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE SORRY EPISODE,IT IS TIME FOR ALL AND SUNDRY TO MEDITATE ON PRATICAL WAY FORWARD OUT OF THE WILDERNESS WE ARE IN AS A NATION.
IT IS ALREADY AN OPEN SECRET THAT SOME CONCERNED NATIONALS ARE AS USUAL PLANNING ONE FORM OF PROTEST OR THE OTHER CONCERNING THE SORRY STATE OF AFFAIRS AT PRESENT IN OUR NATION.
WITH THE SITUATION WE ARE IN, PROTESTS ARE IN ORDER AND NOT OUT OF PLACE EITHER ON THE STREETS OR IN ANY OTHER CIVILISE AND SANE FORMS BUT THE ORGANISERS MUST BE SENSIBLE AND VIGILANT ENOUGH NOT TO ALLOW THIRD COLLUMNISTS LIKE HOODLUMS AND DISGRUNTLED POLITICIANS/POLITRICIANS TO HIJACK THEIR PATRIOTIC ENTERPRISE AND LIVES AND PROPERTIES MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO BE LOST AS IT WAS DURING THE END SARS PROTEST OBVIOUSLY HIJACKED BY PEOPLE WITH ULTERIOR MOTIVES.
AWAY FROM THE PEACEFUL PROTEST,IT IS HIGH TIME OUR PEOPLE EMBARK ON CONSTRUTIVE ENGAGEMENT WITH THE POWERS THAT BE AT ALL LEVELS AND FORA POSSIBLE TO BEGIN TO ASK FOR RESPONSIBLE GOVERNANCE.WE SHOULD NO LONGER SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS AND WE MUST NO LONGER ACCEPT OR HAIL THE MEDIOCRITY IN GOVERNANCE WE HAVE BEEN TREATED TO FOR DECADES.WE MUST BEGIN TO BREATHE DOWN THE NECKS OF OUR OFFICE HOLDERS FROM THE PRESIDENT AND COMMANDER-IN -CHIEF OF ARMED FORCES TO THE WARD COUNCILLORS TO BE ALIVE TO ACHIEVING HIGH LEVEL OF RESPONSIBLE GOVERNANCE.
