are currently going through the most unpredictable political melee organized
and driven by those who believed that when God created this geographical
location called Nigeria it was bequeathed to them for conquest and authority.
That
God left it with them alone and therefore all of us not in their clique and
bound together by history are condemned to servitude and just to follow, even
when we are suffocated. Nigerians are looking up to us for succour because all
the political parties have gone to sleep and we must not disappoint them). Speaking
