How does it make sense to send soldiers, helicopters and artillery to a particular part of the country because they have a security Network that do not kill or abduct Nigerians, and on the other hand send a delegation to negotiate with killer herdsmen, bandits and other terrorists that kill Nigerians from another ethnic group.
So Nigeria Army can be as serious as this in bombing innocent civillians.This kind of strenght should have been used to get rid of insecurity in certain part of the country where the annointed tribe is in a greater population.Indeed there was a country.
The military seems to have determined to teach a certain tribe in a hated geographical location in Nigeria where the sun rises, that they have dared the annointed tribe in another geographical location in Nigeria.
The military laden with the annointed tribe wants to teach the ” dissidents” from where the sun rises a lesson in retaliation ,
that has been on since the end of the civil war, even after the declaration of NO VICTOR NO VANQUISHED.When shall we see the end of this?
It’s quite unimaginable and unthoughtful that armed bandits are the ones who receive better treatment from the central government.
What a nation with. “illogical”ideas in governance that is further dividing the nation.
The sense of being threatened by the “conquered to the conqueror just because “the conquered” formed a group for their protection and security purposes , with the suspicion that the group may metamorphise into a full army that may break away from the nation ,should be jettissoned as quickly as possible, because it is polarising the country the more.I am just watching from a distance.
So many things seem to be unclear to many of us in this nation after many years of independence.
My prayer is that this “Nigeria hypocrisy” will not drag the country into an unnecessary civil war for the second time because of these unfair treatment.The tension accross the country is unimaginable.
We must urgently seek for peace and ensue it.
It baffles me as I listen to the bragging comments from the annointed tribe on social media.After listening to them ,I am tempted to plead that people should go their separate ways alive.But that shall never benefit anyone no matter what we think.
The more the merrier.
But we must not have sacred “cows” just because they are rearing “cows” with criminal annointing,as herdsmen, to lord it over others.
There are so many laws that should address these issues in Nigeria,against open grazing, under age voting, bribery, protection of children ,child marriage.But because of the interest of the annointed tribe,the debates are killed in the senate before it is even mentioned.What hope is left for the nation?
We cannot continue to suffer from ethnophobic disorder .It is a disorder that may bury the nation.When the annointed tribe is reasoning in the reverse on every national issue.That is why we are even handling the issue of insecurity with bias.
It simply shows the level of injustice and hatred for the land of the rising sun that has made some youths asking to be left alone.To seceed peacefully even though they are in the minority.
The worst is the silence of the well meaning leaders from the conquered region because of their self-serving political interests.
But as long as their people do not have peace,they can never have peace.
I entirely blame the Governor of the “bombed” state because he must have been well informed in advance about the strike on his people.
It may even be possible that he is the one that sought the help from the federal government to bomb his people.Who knows!!There is nothing that is not possible in this country.May be we shall hear the story somehow and someday.
The federal government cannot take that kind of decision without carrying the state government along.May be he considered his party affiliation over the life of his people.
I want to conclude by telling those men and women from the land of the rising sun to learn to begin to invest in their home and build their home instead of investing in the places where you may be bombed one day.
If they have already started bombing you at home, what guarantee do you have that they will not bomb you outside your home when the time comes.?
