NOW THAT WE 'VE KNOWN THE ORGANIZERS OF THE PROTEST, IS IT WORTH YOUR TIME?

NOW THAT WE 'VE KNOWN THE ORGANIZERS OF THE PROTEST,  IS IT WORTH YOUR TIME?

It's more profitable to understand, scrutinize and evaluate what ever one plan venturing into. Days ago, I wrote an article about the upcoming protest planned on the 5th of February 2017. In that mind pricking article, (found here http://enlightennigeria.blogspot.com/2017/01/the-planned-nationwide-protest-who-are.html) I asked and sought to know the organizers of the planned protest, what is going to be protested for and the modus operandi of such nationwide protest. As expected, the organizers have come out of hiding. They are "The wailing wailers Ng with the twitter handle, (@NGRWailers. And they have tagged the protest #Buharimustgo#

Since we have known the organizers, the next thing is a scrutiny and proper background check on the integrity,  dignity, antecedents and patriotic attitude of such organization before anyone should give them listening ear let alone allowing oneself to be involved with them. This is because we might be helping some enemies of Nigeria achieve their evil aims. The wailing wailers Ng is group known to support corruption and still suffers from the 2015 elections loss. They are largely PDP apologists, have never believed in this present Government and does not wish it well. The group, mostly active online, are products of pomp and pageantry from the last administration. They are youths who benefited from the wastage of the last administration. They are pained by the lack of hand outs and sharing of money that they no longer see or partake in. A notable voice, in the group is one Deji Adeyanju who fought last year in a club and peddled the false story of Former President Goodluck Jonathan being invited for US President Trump's inauguration and Buhari was not.

The wailing wailers like every corrupt and opportunist group, are always available for the highest bidding politician and will do the bidding of any politician with the biggest pot of porridge. Is this the kind of organisation,  people, or group that you should waste your time protesting with?  Many will ask what's your own in all these? My answer is NOTHING. Am not a politician, have never benefited from any government, I just don't like people cashing in on the emotions of the people to cause mayhem, heat up the polity and fill up their own pockets. A genuine protest, borne out of critical reawakening to demand outright overhaul of the Nigerian Political system, slash of the NASS allowances and salaries, speedy trial, making public offices let's attractive etc. I would be at the forefront. But not one that is headless and sponsored by power hungry politicians. The protest as we learnt would be joined by tuface and there also rumours of a former Akwa Ibom State governor sponsoring him for the protest. I don't want to believe such rumors but the below revelation begs for more answers. " Mr. Akpabio announced a gift of two brand new Toyota Prado SUVs to 2face and his wife. He also reportedly promised to bankroll an all-expense paid trip for 29 delegates from the state to attend the white wedding of the couple fixed for Dubai, the United Arab Emirates on March 23, 2016".

In the days ahead, more revelations will come out as to the real reasons and sponsors of the directionless protest.

Nigerians, we understand that things are hard, there is hunger in the land but we must ask what caused it and what steps are being taken to ameliorate the effects it, and support the government in any way we can so we become a better nation. Our biggest problem, is that we never saved for the rainy day.

Do not waste your little energy that you will use for profitable ventures in this hard time. These people bringing you out just want to fulfil job they've been paid for they are not hungry.
The pictures below are some of their fake news, and some of their tweets. You can also google @Ngrwailers for more of their tweets and wailersNg.com which is their website.

THE PLANNED NATIONWIDE PROTEST, WHO ARE THE CONVENERS?

PLANNED NATIONWIDE PROTEST, WHO ARE THE CONVENERS? 

I saw a message of a nationwide protest against the federal government and the current economic downturn in the country. I tried to read through the reasons for the protest and I got confused the more. I am one person who has always advocated for a total overhaul of our political system, institutions of goverment and agencies. I 've even advocated for us to vote people with credible antecedents and integrity into political office.

But in life we must question whatever we do as a people. The planned protest on the 5th of February 2017, who are the conveners of it? What is the modus operandi? What has prompted it? Who are the sponsors and what exactly are we protesting for or against? This must be spelt out to avoid it been hijacked by politicians, hoodlums and even the current secessionist criers.  What are the things that should be demanded by the would be protesters? Regime change? Slashing of National Assembly members allowances and salaries? Slashing of all Government officials salaries? Speedy expedition of court cases? Putting a stop to unecessary politicking, halt of the current self sustenance policies? Or what exactly? I read from the article of the said protest that why has  kerosene gone from #50 to #400. And one would ask,  when was kerosene #50 per litre in Nigeria? What is the level of grasp of economic political and socio-economic situation by those behind the protest or is this another case of some group of people deceived by politicians to further heat up the already flaming polity and further frustrate Nigerians. Or another case of some youths who sat down in their room to formulate anything and broadcast it without any meaningful reasons behind it. Like the bathe with salt to cure Ebola years ago.

I learnt legendary musicians like 2face, has indicated interest in the protest but  further comments from him reveals that he is not the convener but just retweeted the message. Those behind the protest must be bold to come out and brief the people about the upcoming protest and give it credibility. If not Nigerians should be weary of those who are only thinking of their pocket and need to fulfil their pledge to their sponsors. Nigerians mind what you Protest against or for.

AN OPEN LETTER TO MRS AISHA BUHARI ON THE BBC INTERVIEW

AN OPEN LETTER TO MRS. AISHA BUHARI
WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU HAVE DONE?

Ma, with due respect, what was the meaning of that interview with the BBC Hausa? I listened with shock the interview you granted with BBC Hausa on issues bordering on the Nigerian political Landscape and the Change Government of your husband, President Muhammadu Buhari. I was shocked not because of your incoherent speech or your poor command of English language like the former First Lady Patience Jonathan but because of your utterances in that interview.

Ma, What do you think you have done? You went on air to say things that you shouldn't have said? To achieve what? Are you planning on contesting any political position in 2019? Many first ladies all over the world offer support and help to their husband even in the most difficult times and not to come the public to demoralize him. To what end? During the illness of the late President Yar'Adua, the wife Turai Yar'Adua never came out to publicly tell the world that her husband is sick and that if he continues to be sick,  she would abandon everything and allow other people grab power. It was reported in different quarters that Turai called the shots while the husband was sick and away.  During the trial of the then President of the United States of America, Bill Clinton, The wife,  who is now a Presidential candidate was very tactful in speaking to the press. She never ridiculed her husband even when it  was proven that he actually had an affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Oh! Ma,  What do you think you have done? During the recent trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki, did you hear anywhere where Toyin Saraki the wife came out publicly to say that if the husband doesn't come out clean about his dealings on false Declaration of Assets she will stop supporting him? Recently, Yakubu Dogara, the current Speaker of the house of Representatives, was accused of budget padding alongside other members of the house. Did you by chance even in gossip hear that the wife was quoted as saying she would stop supporting the husband if does not come out clean on the issue? Ma, I can go on and on to give you vital examples of women who were before you in same position and kept their cool, worked with carefulnes knowing the kind of society we are in.


What do you think you have done? What came over you? How did you lose it? You could have declined invitation to that interview or was it by force? Today some opposition elements are cashing on that interview and the President's comic response to jump around like they 've won an election. Ma, are you happy about this? Have you seen the ridicule online brought about by this? Imagine Oluremi Tinubu making this kind of Uterrances or Dolapo Osibanjo. Ma, I must remind you that if not for Buhari, we wouldn't have known you. Before you became a first lady, which is just a nomenclature, you were first a wife, a mother and your husband's better half. Have you forgotten all these in just over one year of being in Aso Rock villa? Have you forgotten that after the tenure of your husband, you will return back to Daura with him? And that no one will care where you are? Even this type of interviews you won't get them anymore or when last did you read or hear from Turai Yar'Adua? Whatever borders your heart about the situations of the country, you could have talked to your husband about it at home and remember the Islamic laws guiding marriages no matter your position. Or have you suddenly become secular just cos of power? In that ill conceived interview, you said you don't know 45 out of the 50 appointment made by your husband. Like seriously are you supposed to know? Are you a politician? You want to influence the appointments? Or you are not happy the President on assumption of office scrapped the office of the first lady unlike previous administration?

Hope you know the implications of what you have done? Those hailing you today will abandon you when the time comes. Just wear the next expensive jewelry or carry an expensive bag and see those hailing you still question your source of income and accuse you and your family of being corrupt. And in many of these accusations of your expensive lifestyle, did you hear the President utter a word? Forget the nonsense going on now, where everyone is now kissing their wife and claiming what is not, (So they needed a misunderstanding in Someone's family issue to show off their wife?) many men  wouldn't be happy if their wife goes to the media to say what they shouldn't have. Ma, you no try for that interview. And please retrace your step.

DSS RAID ON CORRUPT JUDGES AND WHAT IS DEMOCRACY


DSS RAID ON CORRUPT JUDGES AND WHAT IS DEMOCRACY

--Corrupt  judges are the worst set of people  is killing our democracy-- Princewill Chimereze.

On Saturday 8th October, 2016 the DSS raided the home of some high profile judges in Nigeria. The Said raid has generated irrational outcry by some group and some section of the country. Nigeria’s opposition party the PDP has termed it a "descent into fascism". Some has said our democracy is in danger, others termed it rape of our democracy. When you listen to some of these cries even from those who know nothing about democracy but just decide to foam through the nose because others are doing same, you would be forced to really ask what is democracy and who is killing it? According to wikitionary.org Democracy is the Belief in political freedom and equality; the "spirit of democracy". That's for dictionary meaning. To those who has opposed the raid by Nigeria's State security outfit, to them democracy is upholding the tenets of law and doing things the right way.

It's very funny to see a people choose what is democratic or what is not detrimental to our young democracy. Who really is putting our democracy in danger? A judge who subverts the will of the people and does the bidding of the highest paying politician? A judge who sends a petty thief to long term imprisonment but commits bigger crime and gets away with it? A judge who collects bribe to continuously give conflicting judgement on issues?
To the our democracy is in danger shouting irrational beings,  A politician who rigged election, perpetrated all kinds of violence against his opponent and the people in order to win election is not putting our democracy in danger. He is upholding it. Its even more amusing that a governor was stopping the arrest of a judge. In a democracy? What concerns a governor with the arrest of a judge? How did he get to know? It might interest anyone to know that this same raid was carried out in over five State of the Federation and you begin to wonder where was the governor of those other state? And why did they not also try to stop DSS? A rational answer would help all of us.

As if such nonsense is not insulting to our collective common sense and endangering our young democracy, An electoral case would be brought before a court, the said electoral matter would be glaring even to the blind that it was badly flawed  and Judges would uphold such elections. And those shouting democracy now kept quiet. A politician would loot the treasury of the nation without conscience and care for democracy. When such politician is brought to court,  he bribes his way out of the issue and walks free. He has been given a pat on the back for looting and even encouraging potential looters that we 've got your back go ahead and steal as you like. What kills democracy faster than judgements encouraging looting.

The same noise makers about the recent DSS raid on corrupt judges are the ones who will be the first to scream economy is in recession, things are hard, prices of foodstuffs has skyrocketed. But fail to understand that When these corrupt judges collect bribes, they also contribute to the downfall of the economy and what  should have benefited the common man would be shared among selected few. Is that democracy? A politician steals over a $100 million and bribes a Judge with $2 million from the said loot gets a clean judgement of doing no wrong and he walks freely is that upholding democratic tenets? Or is democracy under siege when some people choose to see it so?

During Election, State security apparatus were unleashed on opposition, some military men were arm banded to carry out shady deals in order to win election for friends and party members in the last dispensation. Where were the today crying "our democracy is in danger illiterates? Money was earmarked for procurement of arms to fight insurgency in the Northeast and same was shared by those whom the present day shouters of our democracy is in danger supported. Then democracy had seen the light  but when those people are called upon to come and answer to their atrocities democracy is being killed. How?

To this same "democracy illiterates" When A sitting governor was denied entrance to the government house of his state, it was democracy in action. When DSS raided the office of an opposition party and carted away with their belongings it was democracy in action. When the security details of a Speaker of House of Representatives was withdrawn democracy was breathing fine. The most surprising thing about all these corruption defending is that it's championed by downtrodden youths who might not get their desire to lead the nation due to the manner and way the politicians go about politics in Nigeria. How would you win election with the level of violence, ballot box snatching and rigging that has been mastered by this politicians and when such cases get to court, they are even upheld.

"Nigerian Youths what is your gain in defending corruption or supporting those accused of corruption?

This is a call to the DSS to carry out more of this type of raid on anyone no matter how highly or lowly placed the person is. Be more probing, go further, crush things and make sure Nigeria is purged of corruption. Patriotic Nigerians are behind you. I must State categorically that corrupt judges are the worst set of people  is killing our democracy.

I would like to end this piece with a quote from a well respected legal luminary Mohammed Uwais. “A corrupt judge is more harmful to the society than a man who runs amok with a dagger in a
crowded street. The latter can be restrained physically. But a corrupt judge deliberately destroys the moral foundation of society and causes incalculable distress to individuals through abusing his office while still being
referred to as honourable"

To those who still have the ability to recollect their senses and move on from elections loss which was inevitable,  and has be clouded their sense of judgment, I hope a corrupt judge would not handle your case and deny you justice.

THINGS BEN BRUCE HAS NOT TALKED ABOUT

THINGS BEN BRUCE HAS NOT TALKED ABOUT 

After 2015 elections, we saw  Ben Bruce become active on social media and dishing out what he termed common sense. One begins to wonder whether he never owned or used smart phone prior to 2015 elections. Before now no one saw him on Twitter criticizing the past Government or giving them common sense advice. What Ben Bruce is doing in my own opinion especially in criticizing this present government is just sheer Hypocrisy. 

To prove that in a bit, here are National issues that Ben Bruce has not spoken about.

1. MASSIVE LOOTING AND CORRUPTION IN JONATHAN's GOVERNMENT: Since the fight against corruption started under this present administration and the discovery of massive looting and sheer mismanagement of our common wealth under the last Government, Ben Murray Bruce has not spoken either in condemnation or defence of it. One would have expected him to throw out lots of common sense articles, speeches and or even make a video telling us how corruption has destroyed the country but no its not a strong issue. Maybe his common sense articles and and speeches have restrictions. Mr. Ben Bruce what's your take on this issue?

2. NIGER DELTA AVENGERS: To the dismay of many Nigerians, a group came out of the blues calling themselves Niger Delta Avengers (Avenging what?) bombing our pipelines. If we have given Amnesty to militants, isn't it a crime to go back on that same thing that was forgiven of them?. Since their bombing started, Ben Bruce has not said anything about them. He has surprisingly kept mute. Maybe his battery is always low or dead when they attack.

3. SARAKI's TRIAL: Since Senate President, Bukola Saraki's corruption trial started, Ben Bruce has not said anything about it either in condemnation or support. You would have expected him in some of his numerous common sense tweets to condemn Bukola Saraki's continued stay as the Senate President while his case is still in court. He should have said something about Bukola Saraki's Asset declaration and subsequent trial. But Ben Bruce has not. Abi him dey fear Saraki ni?

4. SENATE RULES FORGERY: The media has been awashed with news of the senate standing rule forged by Senate President Bukola Saraki and Deputy, Ike Ekweremadu. You would have expected Common sense Senator to come up with series of tweets, speeches or articles affirming that the rules were forged or were not. After all he is a member of the Senate and should know what goes on there. But till date Ben Bruce has kept mute about this saga. Maybe him no want make dem beatam for Senate Chamber if he talk. 

5. PDP CRISIS: Senator Ben Bruce is a member of the PDP and his party is in a shameful mess and dirty water crisis. Two chairman, Two governorship candidate in Edo, Two governors in Abia State. In all this national embarrassment, Ben Bruce has said nothing. He has maintained hypocritical silence and act like he doesn't read the Newspapers. Had it been its about the present government he would 've found where he kept his phone, come to the internet to criticize their actions. Ben Bruce, are you for Makarfi or Sheriff! 

6.  NON PAYMENT OF WORKERS SALARIES IN EKITI AND BAYELSA: when it was reported that Osun state governor, Rauf Aregbeshola was owing workers in his State, Ben Bruce was one of those who condemned the governor and even insulted the people of the State by saying he would channel part of the controversial wardrobe allowance that ran into millions into paying workers salary in Osun State. He made so many mountain out of the Salary issue then in Osun state. Today as we speak, his State, Bayelsa state, is struggling to pay workers and so also is Ekiti. You would expect Ben Bruce to comment on this issue with the same approach he did with that of Osun or even offer to pay the workers with his earnings in the Senate but No. His smart phone has suddenly got missing or maybe him no want make Fayose remember him matter.

What ever we want to venture into in life, we must weigh the ups and down and be ready to come to equity with clean hands. Common sense will become common nonsense if its only targeted at a particular people or party.

WHY CELEBRITY MARRIAGES FAIL

WHY CELEBRITY MARRIAGES FAIL 

--No matter who we are in life we must respect the tennets of Marriage-- Princewill Chimereze

celebrity marriages comes with lots of uneccessary nd irrelevat burden that makes it hit the rock most at the slightes misunderstanding. There are reasons that makes celebrity marriages fail but below are some of the reasons.

1. UNCHANGED CHARACTER: This reason is not only peculiar to  celebrities but to everyone. Many ladies never work on their characters before venturing into marriage. Imagine a lady with lots of anger issues getting into marriage, she would less likely tolerate what she gets to see in the marriage. Some ladies are gossip freak to the extent that when they get married they wont even know when they will spread the dirty side of their marriage outside which if it gets to the notice of their husband will be suicidal. Some guys are chronic womanizers that even marriage can never change them. They chase after any babe that has got what they like forgeting they are married.

2. LIMELIGHT: fame, comes with lots of changes. What an ordinary person can endure and move on with in marriage, a celebrity might not  be able to do so cos of fame and limelight. A celebrity does not know what it is like to manage in marriage when the chips are down. The woman have to continue the lifestyle she has built for herself over the years. She wouldn't want to be seen as living a life that is not of her standard.  This can make her engage in extra marital affairs just to keep up the limelight.

3. MARRIAGE FOR CONVENIENCE: Many celebrities are in marraige for convinience or for the sake of it. And you expect such marraige to last? Some celebrities feel many of their celebrity friends are getting married therefore, they need to do so. Some are in it for what they would gain from their partner and when such goodies are no longer coming, they end up crashing the marriage. They know they don't love their potential husband but because of convenience and to sustain the kind of life they 've fashioned for themselves, they would just marry the person. A clear case is Funke Akindele, who married a man known to be a serial womanizer and has been married twice. The marriage ended via Facebook.  

4. MARRIAGE FOR WEALTH: This reason is similar to that of convenience. Most celebrities are poor if you take away their other crooked ways of income. That is why they look out for anyone who is rich to get married to so they can continue to get the latest shoe, clothes and other material things that they can't do without. Ini Edo go tell me say she no see fine, responsible and hardworking boys way full everywhere fall in love with and get married?  She did but wanted a rich man. Today they are divorced not only divorced but the man is asking for his Bride price back.        

5. LIES: Celebrities know how to lie. Some of them call it strategies to remain relevant because of the competition in showbiz but its unnecessary. Some will say they 've bought a house when actually they rented it. Some can be driving their sugar daddy and sugar mummy's car and claim its theirs. You would only know when they have problems with these people. When their partner gets to know about all these lies, the next thing is divorce because the marriage itself was built on lies.

6. FAKE LIFE: No one on earth lives a fake life more than celebrities. It would surprise you to know that what you see on the surface is just a cover for the dirt, pain, sorrow, woes, and regrets inside. Do you know that some celebrities borrow clothes to wear? They squat with friends and act like its their house? Do not be deceived by Instagram pictures all na wash. Some musicians have no hit single but act like they 've gotten everything in life. Some give you updates like; last night was awesome, he is the best man in the world, doesn't smoke, womanize or take alcohol when the man is actually a drunkard and drug addict. When they can't take it anymore, you know the rest.

7.  LACK OF RESPECT FOR MARRIAGE INSTITUTION: In my article about Tiwa Savage's Marriage, (found here: enlightennigeria.blogspot.com/2016/05/tiwa-savage-married-and-was-still.html?m=1). I pointed out some bad characters that made that marriage crash of which many of them boils down to lack of respect for the institution. How can a woman be married and still wants to act like she is still single. Cleavage barring, attending parties and getting drunk and tipsy, being on location for almost a week, getting so cosy on movie or music set, wearing skimpy dress and what have you and expect the marriage to be successful. Marriage comes with sacrifices and doing away with some of the things we were doing while we were yet to get married.

Marriage is not by force if one knows they can't cope with the stress and hassle that comes with it better remain single than get into it and divorce almost immediately. Marriage no be by Dubai wedding or 50 million Naira but by enduring and persevering to the End.

TEN TYPES OF WAILERS IN NIGERIA

10 TYPES OF WAILERS 

If wailing is our last resort after an --election loss, we must do so with sense-- PRINCEWILL CHIMEREZE 

      As we celebrate this Government's one year in office,  It's also an Anniversary for the wailing wailers. For those who don't know,  The wailing wailers are sore election losers who has continued to wallow in the pain of election loss thereby clouding their judgement of the present administration and making them attack the government unnecessarily. They were christened "Wailing Wailers"  by Presidential aide; Femi Adeshina. 
Before I list the types of wailers in Nigeria,  I must point out that criticism is different from crying due to election loss or attacking a government without any cogent  reason but just to oppose. Below are the types of Wailing Wailers in Nigeria. 

1.  THE ELECTION LOSERS: This ones can't forget the 2015 Presidential election which their hero lost. They believed their hero was unjustifiably removed and they must fight for him. They roam about the Online space shouting 'Jonathan is a hero' as if we dey drag "Mr. hero" with them. They defend him at every given opportunity and rain abuses on anyone who talks about the mindless looting that went down during his reign.  This ones wants to make sure they show Nigerians how their decision to vote in Buhari was a Mistake. So they see nothing good about this present administration. They ask this administration to stop blaming the former government . If this administration don't blame them who will?

2.  THOSE WHO HATE NORTH: this type of wailers do not see anything good in the government just because the President is from the northern part of the country. They  litter our cyber space with such illiterate lines like 'Fear North' 'The problem of this country is North' etc. They jump on any ethnic issues to show how low they are. The solutions for this kind of people, i don't know. They cry victims at any given opportunity and accuse North of being the architect of their problem As if Namadi Sambo who ran with GEJ was not a northerner. Their only solution to the problem of the country is to divide it and let North be on their own. The eronously believe the North won't survive without the South. But they never cried for this When GEJ was in power. Wail on wailers.  Waiiiilllllllllll!!! . 

3. RELIGIOUS BIGOTS: This ones are the most pathetic, senseless, and bunch of illiterates. This ones started during the build up to the presidential election. They continued till this day. To them this administration wants to Islamize Nigeria. They litter the online space with nonsense like, "The president wants to Islamize Nigeria" They hate the President cos he is a Muslim but will support Dasuki and Saraki. And you begin to wonder what remedy will be best to cure them. But unfortunately none. Their leaders are Femi Faani Kayode, Fayose etc. May God help them.

4. IPOB MEMBERS: This group have no direction. They remembered they need a country because the last administration was booted out. They sow seeds of discord and hatred in anyone they come across. They have created different online platform to deceive themselves about an imaginary country. This online platform only spread lies and hate messages about APC and Buhari. And you begin to wonder is it by spreading lies about Buhari and APC that you will actualize your struggle? This ones insult you when you don't agree with them or when people like me oppose them from involving the South south from their misery. Well, this group should continue at least an Imaginary Russian President holding their flag has backed them.

5. THE ETHNIC BIGOTS: This ones are similar to the Religious bigots. Their problem is that their region is not the ones at the Zenith of Nigerian leadership. They blame other regions for their woes as if those regions also elected their leaders for them. They only look out for religious coloration in any issue. Any appointment,  they will scrutinize it as if it's their exam note or Textbook to find out how many Northerners and southerners are in it. They DOUBTED chibok girls kidnap but believed Fulani herdsmen massacre in Agatu. To them anyone from their region in this Present Government is a sell out, traitor and an ''efulefu'' as my people will say. How low can a people get? Their leader is FFK, a man who insulted them before. Well this group, their case is With Tb Joshua.

6. THE ONES THAT NO LONGER SEE GOVERNMENT MONEY: This ones, when i see them i rub salt on their injury. Their anger is that stolen money from the destructive party the PDP is no longer coming.  The border was opened for them to import every irrelevant thing to the country and now its been closed. To them economy is moving as long as they make money even in  "Unfriendly economic" way. They litter different blogosphere with such illiterate lines as 'Bring back our corruption'  'There was corruption and bag of Pure water was bla bla bla and one begins to wonder where this people crept out from. They are the anti corruption fight foot soldiers.  They have benefited so much from share the money attitude and now its like their life is going to be paused by the "New Sheriff in town" .This ones their wailing will be too long to measure because tougher economic decisions will be made for a better Nigeria.

7. THE ONES THAT JUST HATE APC: This ones link everything that happens to them to the APC. They scream "Government of lies". "What do you expect"? This Government gave the former a robust and sound Opposition that every Nigerian saw the Need for them to go. To this ones, if APC was not formed they would have  still remain in power. They litter our online space with such lines as "A Party built on lies"  "A party of deceit". And when you ask them how truthful their PDP was, they become Dumb. They believed APC used propaganda to get the presidency and they must revenge it. By calling APC names? They should continue.  

8. THOSE WHO JUST WAIL: This ones are just like those Girls who had no option but to watch football match with their boyfriend and just have to support his club whether they know what the game is all about or not. They just join to wail maybe for 'likes' from fellow online users or just not to be seen as deviating from supporting their family members, ethnic group or friends. This ones retweet others, like their posts  and also fearfully insult the government without any reason or direction. Well, this ones will realise themselves one day. I use to behave this way before i decided be well grounded in economic, political and other National issues.
9. THE ONES THAT HATE BUHARI: This ones will remind you how he never allowed them to come out of their mother's womb during Buhari's first stint at the nation's top job in 1983. How he jailed their family for running drugs, how he hate other tribes and all other unsubstantiated issues. They can't believe he won the election after their campaign of hate and calumny. They are the ones who keep asking for certificate of the President till date.  Him go bring the certificate una hear? Wetin una wan usam do?  Make una no take una life do better thing. Awon omo rada rada. 

10. THE ONES THAT WILL INSULT THIS WRITER: This ones are just helpless. They think insulting those who oppose their unexamined stance on this government will increase their bank Account or Popularity. They wonder why people like Soyinka, Falana, Bakare, ezekwesili, other known vocal activist are not speaking out against this present government. And you begin to wonder what should they speak against in one year? And considering our present economic problems. They should join them in calling the President Dullard?

WHEN A PROTEST IS BOUND TO FAIL

When a group of people have no clear reason for embarking on a strike or have political undertone to it, its bound to fail.

Below is a photo of recently held NLC strike against subsidy removal. And you begin to wonder, what they are protesting against.

****The first inscription in the screenshot above shows how confused they are *** Is that not what this administration is doing or trying to do?

***Now the second Inscription is laughable. Are they protesting against APC or Subsidy Removal? Looks like what was sponsored by PDP.

***Now below are images from the 2012 subsidy removal protest Now you can spot the difference yourself.



The current NLC leadership are bunch of directionless, irresponsible, and unintelligent fellows

WHY NIGERIANS WONT OCCUPY NIGERIA AS FUEL SUBSIDY IS REMOVED

WHY NIGERIANS WONT OCCUPY NIGERIA AS FUEL SUBSIDY IS REMOVED

Yesterday, the Internet was awashed with news of the Federal Government's removal of subsidy on premium motor spirit also known as fuel. This news came as a shocker to Nigerians and as a reason for some group of people (THE WAILING WAILERS) who does not want to move on with their life after the 2015 Presidential elections to justify their support for then President Goodluck Jonathan. Later that same day, the Government through its Minister for State for Petroleum released a statement that seems to not affirm or deny the news of subsidy removal.

Unlike the previous Government where Nigerians came out in mass to protest against subsidy removal, many Nigerians will not protest this one or only a few disgruntled elements who sees everything as politics or attach ethnic coloration to everything will do so. Below are some of the reasons why There would be no protest.

1. DUE CONSULTATIONS: Going by the statement released by the Minister for State for Petroleum Dr. Ibe Kachickukwu, the TUC, NLC and other stakeholders in Nigeria were duly consulted before taking this decision. Forget the threat by NLC they just want to make it look like they 've not failed Nigerians. The question is were they not represented in the meeting? What is their take on Saraki still occupying The Senate Presidency? What is their take on most of our universities on strike etc. Why is it that NLC only knows how to cry when it involves oil?

2. SINCERITY: Even the President's worst enemy knows he means well for Nigeria. They know whatever decision he takes is for the overall good of every Nigerian. Many will ask if the previous Government never meant well for the country? The answer lies on the characters and personalities of the two leaders and their stance on corruption and mismanagement. Many believed the former's Petroleum minister was corruption personified who said she was untouchable while the later is a man of proven integrity who will make judicious use of the proceeds from subsidy removal.

3. TACTFULNESS: Even till this moment, no one can say for sure that Petroleum subsidy has been removed. The government in their wisdom wants to go about it in the best possible ways as not to generate public outcry on the issue. The statement by the Minister proved that. The government knows the implications of removing fuel subsidy and has deviced the best possible ways out of it. Unlike the previous Government who woke up on January 1st when most Nigerians were still returning from Christmas and New year Celebrations and announced fuel subsidy removal.

4. FAITH IN THIS GOVERNMENT: Believe it or not there is an overwhelming belief in this Government. I dare anyone to conduct a sincere public opinion poll on their perception of this Government and you will be shocked on the percentage that will affirm their support for this Government. Forget some of the comments by some nitwits online who does not have grasp of economic issues and present economic woes but do so out of religious or ethnic sentiments that has kept them where they are. Most Prominent Nigerians are sympathetic to this Government this may be connected to their belief that this Government is still in its nascent stage and it's meaningless criticizing it this early.

5. UNCONSTRUCTIVE OPPOSITION: The present opposition in Nigeria are headless, directionless and has no moral right to criticize or call for civil disobedience because it's not in their modus operandi and has failed woefully when they were there. The present opposition led by uncouth, crass and crude Ayodele Fayose only flex their muscles when its religious and ethnic issues. Recently, the one who might have seen the issue as only affecting the South East or Christians just to create chaos in the land is answering to his involvement in money meant for arms purchase that was traced to his account. The other one who claims to be their media aide is busy looking for who to fight in the nearest night club tonight or spreading false news.

DIFFERENTIAL OIL PRICES: In 2012, When the previous administration removed fuel subsidy oil price was on the high side. Global oil market sold for over $90 per barrel as at January of that same year while today oil price is very much below $50. The powers that be made minimal or no significant impact on the lives of Nigerians in the mist of plenty why won't they be able to pay for Petroleum subsidy hence the occupy Nigeria during that time. Today, Sane Nigerians would wonder why they should involve themselves in meaningless protest when the current global oil price is nothing to write home about.
