Some boys just decided to court unnecessary attention from the security agencies in Nigeria sha. They just decided that they would burn the posters and billboards displaying the pictures of the President of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari.
What was their grouse?
Bandits (?) are killing people in the state unabated. They just ride on their bikes, storm any village or city that catches their fancy and visit any scale of mayhem they seem fit on the people. At least that’s what we were told.
Didn’t the bible say that a man’s enemies are from his own house? How can a couple of disgruntled people call themselves bandits and kill people as they like?
And nothing is happening to them? I even heard the governor of the state went at some point to the forest to beg them. I am yet to even believe that.
What they call forest in the north is like a bush farm in the south. To even think that the governor was escorted by the police, abi e go alone?
And the bandits, even though me I know that I hate that title, breached the agreement and resumed their favourite pastime. The governor is now helpless. The man is old, his brain is tired.
Wait, let me guess; Buhari is from Katsina, seen especially in Lagos as the messiah, a classic example of an incorruptible man.
Folks like Tolu Ogunlesi would swear on their lives that Buhari is only being sabotaged by the opposition, otherwise by now, New York for be learner.
A man who is trying so much for his country cannot be so embarrassed by his own people.
After all, tribe is greater than competence in Nigeria. And the President is from the largest tribe in Nigeria. Wetin come remain?
In 2015, around Mararaba in Nasarawa State, in the build up to the presidential election, I wore a GEJ branded T-shirt to see my babe.
Those boys, after a diet of Codeine, almost killed me. I had to run away on an okada. And the shirt na dash o! I knew at that point that it is a serious something.
The same Codeine is responsible for this their unpatriotic act. Except that, I think the arsonists are members of the codeine gang, Katsina chapter. They should be thanking God that Nigeria has a man of Buhari’s calibre as president if not, according to our brother Femi, he would have beheaded them.
How dare they talk of insecurity? Didn’t the president promise to end insecurity? Have we not been audiolly killing Boko Haram?
Even though some of them are not killed to death, killing na killing. Shek-cow, oh sorry, Shekau should be tired of hearing his own obituaries every year by now.
They should relax, the president is doing something about their case. It is just that the bandits don’t have respect for agreement.
Maybe they will have some respect for old age when the president visits them.
