Those Tropical Gangsters again? PDF Print E-mail
By Adeola Aderounmu
Babangida, Buhari and Abdulsalami are obviously sick men. Abacha is one of these mad men but he died to the abundant joy of millions of Nigerians.

These men are among the people who brought shame and dishonour to our dear country Nigeria. It is still very amazing how we have been fooling around in this country. As a matter of fact, we are still dancing around in circles since the independence in 1960.

Why are these mad men still seen dancing naked in public places? It is very difficult to blame these shameless men who continue to parade themselves around like nonentities.

The fact is that no one has been bold enough to tell them their real names to their faces. Babangida is a thief. Buhari is a thief and Abdulsalami is a thief. The most untold truth in Nigeria is that all our politicians and autocratic leaders are thieves. The difference and the battle among them is how much they are capable of stealing yet escaping the Nigerian short arm of the law.

In 2008, 21st century jet age and globalize world, some idiots who stole, looted and ripped Nigeria to pieces will open their dirty stinking mouths that Abacha did not steal! Nonsense! These people are mad. If we follow the sharia law that they are supposed to be practicing, they should all be amputated and thereafter stone to death in open places.

Since the rule of law has died a natural and sudden death in Nigeria, people who stole and merry with our commonwealth can have the audacity to return into our lives anytime they like and tell us what they think in their korofo skull.

If there is rule of law in Nigeria, where does Babangida thinks that his correspondence address would be since 1993? Where does Buhari, Abdulsalami and the other thieves think that they would have been receiving visitors? Please o, I am tired of this rubbish. Let these men just shut up and continue to enjoy their loots until they rot away. Every living thing must rot anyway. Vanity of men!

Enough of these insults to our collective intelligence. In their idleness and madness if they have nothing to do, they should just sleep or take a trip to a place of solitude where no one can hear or record the insanity emanating from their fractured cerebrals.

Abacha did not steal from Nigeria? Ok, it is my mother who stole billions and stashed them away in several banks at home and abroad. What a way to go? Even madam Abacha had the guts to appear in public places. What is she parading? Shame? Insanity? Both?

This country remains in square one all the time. Few are enjoying and millions are suffering. The calamities of this nation continue despite all the attempts by the present illegal leadership and past dictators to paint it otherwise.

No regime or leadership in Nigeria should be taken seriously at all. Any leader that wants to be taken seriously must be ready to do the unthinkable and lay his or her life for the prosperity of Nigeria. History of corruption had been written and re-written time and time over again. Almost no tangible positivity has emerged on the war on corruption.

If people like Babangida continue to live as freemen and as a matter of fact if he dies a freeman, the coffin of Nigeria would have been laid forever. It will be cited in our annals as a reference for the ability to loot, steal, kill and walk free.He should face the consequences of his misdeeds before anything else!

If Nigeria must make progress, the biggest giant step will be to round up these thieves and murderers in and out of power and send them to where they belong. That will immediately awaken all the present and current looters to know that governance means service and not looting and killing.

There is nothing that has not been said about Nigeria but there is a lot that has not been done to set the records straight. One of our biggest deficiencies is the mentality that governance is a means to acquire wealth and make money. The lack of prosecution or the use of selective prosecution has made many sacred but mad cows to roam our biosphere and parade their ineptitudes.

What a pity that we can still be fed with these types of jargons by the men who catalysed and accelerated the destruction of our great country. It is very annoying. It is inexplicable and it shows that this country is in bondage. It is absolutely within the fangs of some tropical gangsters whose folds continue to multiply and manifest in various forms. This country Nigeria needs Deliverance.

Sir
You have taken the English language and baked it well in the oven of the Nigerian sunshine.Even if you don't know it the style of Adegoke Adelabu lives in your writing.
Sir,even if you can't shame these monsters, your words have frozen them in the imagination of the duped masses.These so-called leaders have looted the common wealth but don't know their backsides are showing.

The trio of (Buhari,Ibb & Abdulsalam) might be right in making those ironic statement knowing OBJ was there before them and if the following facts as rightly stated by MikkyJagga below is taken into consideration.



=Mikky jaga;4295053577>It is Obasanjo that beatified Abacha. Before obasanjo's destructive rule, no one could have committed the sacriledge of calling Abacha a saint. But then, OBJ came and surpassed Abacha in all the departments of thievery and destruction, thus making Abacha look like an innocent child.

While Abacha stole under the cover of darkness, Obasanjo stole in broad daylight.(FACT)

While Abacha killed his opponents one at a time, (Saro Wiwa, Kudirat, etc) Obasanjo killed in hundreds (Zaki Biam, Odi, etc).....(FACT)

While Abacha made some attempts to palliate our sufferings by using the PTF to repair some roads, Obasanjo voted billions for the repairs without anything to show for it.(FACT)

While Abacha increased fuel price from N9 to N11 and pumped the increase into PTF , Obasanjo increased fuel price from N11 to N75 without mentioning what he did with the increase.(FACT)

Abacha locked up his enemies in jail with trumped up coup charge, Obasanjo surpassed that by accusing a man already in jail (under trial) of plotting coup just to add to his travails.(FACT)

It is in the area of hypocrisy that Obasanjo beats Abacha hands down. I need not say more on this. The man's hypocrisy stinks to high heavens.

By all standards, Abacha was evil, but Obasanjo surpassed him in all evil departments.

You think Nigerians can successfully carry out a revolt?

Well I don't. Certainly not of the variety that'd change things in the country. I don't think you realise how selfish and corrupt the average Nigerian is, they'd sell out in a heartbeat.

The only type of revolution Nigerians are able to pull off are the amala-driven kind harnessed and orchestrated by "benevolent" leaders like Adedibu.

Don't waste your time.

And yet with all these glaring facts, whenever Biafra is mentioned, the tone of the song changes. We the Nigerian masses are the architect of our doom.

Country people without a nation! Have we learnt anything? Did Obasanjo not commit worse than ALL these men put together? And if not for the gang up of our polithievcians for selfish reasons, against his ambition, would he not still be there?

The story credited to the trio of IBB, Buhari and Abdusalam is a manifestation of a new northern agenda. It absolutely has nothing to do with Abacha being a thief since that has never been in contention. Since Yar'dua took over, there have been subtle moves by the north to tell the south arrogantly that they have taken control of power. The way they are going about it, southerners could go to hell. If you noticed, YD is not hiding his northernization agenda. One of his first acts in office was to appoint his cousin minister of state for petroleum. He or rather the people controlling his government, have been replacing southerners in strategic positions with their kinsmen. His next victim may be the CBN governor, Soludo.

Another lesson from their statement is that Buhari's claim to being a democrat has been finally punctured. Perhaps, realizing that he may never rule Nigeria again, he has decided to team up with fellow cabals to assert northern authority. Is it not an irony that Buhari who has had a running battle with IBB would now come out to forge a common ground? People should be able to read between the lines and decode a simple message as this. Southerners are being told that they should stop calling Abacha, the dark-googled one, a rogue and that, in a most arrogant manner.

The presence of Fasheheun the OPC leader at the occasion, helps to validate the point that Nigeria is indeed ruled by a tiny cabal consisting of Hausa-Fulani and Yoruba elite. He could not have woken up and decided to grace the occasion. Its all about underground intrigues which one could only speculate. But who knows, the way things are heading in Nigeria, something monumental may likely happen. The politicians have become more daring and nonchalant in fooling the public.
