Sinners run when no one chases them. The cloud of fear that have befallen the tyranic leaders now is a tip of an iceberg of the terror ahead of them.
A time will come (maybe now) when there will be no despotic apparatus will be able to stop the determined youths from liberating themselves from political slavery.
The word of God says ” the pit they (wicked ) dug is their own foot taken. Evil will pursue and overtake the wicked.
I wouldn’t write a long episode but to put it straight and concise.
Bad, corrupt, selfish leaders are those responsible to the pitiable state we find ourselves in this country.
They looted our common treasury to enrich themselves. They divided us with their religious sycophancy, preached ethnicity supremacy and political bigotry.
They enslaved us and made us strangers in our fatherland.
They intentionally failed to provide quality education so that youths wouldn’t gain consciousness to ask for freedom.
They divided us ethnically and spornsored religous intolerance teaching so that youths wouldn’t form an alliance to stop their continuous despotic and oppressive governance.
With our common resources they acquired weapons and armor to build wall of security around themselves like that of Jericho. But they forgot so soon that the wall of Jericho fell at last.
In my last Write Up (Youth Marginalisation and Deprivation; A National Calamity), I hinted that the mess wouldn’t continue perpetually as God will intervene with a supernatural force to put a paid to it.
Therefore, using Government machineries to arrest and trying to silent already wounded and desperate youths that are legitimately seeking change will not only fail but also be counterproductive.
Let the Governments do the needful. Kidnapping, Armed Robbery, Internet fraud, Prostitution and the ugly thread of suicide are results of poor leadership.
This is a call on concerned groups, individual and Governments to stand for a positive change and resist sentimentalism before all things fall apart.
New Nigeria is possible??.
