Not long ago we listened with ease and calmness as Atiku and Buhari's campaign machineries declared its manifestoes. These manifestoes include communiqués to the nation to brace-up for thunder and earthquakes if the 2007 electioneering exercises were not annulled and fresh elections conducted. These communiqués were based on internationally and locally acknowledged irregularities during the so-called general elections. As we all know evil has no righteous-friendly. It is therefore understandable that that which is fabricated under falsehood dashes with waste and ashes. Today, anything Nigeria is a mockery of anything statehood and nationalism. As folks watched from the sidelines statisticians and mathematicians were pertinent enough in keeping track of statistical data as these corrupt politicians worked their months from both sides. It is no surprising therefore that Buhari, Atiku and cronies are beginning to sing different tunes nowadays, including negotiating with inaugurated illegitimacy called Yar’Adua Presidency, etc. Buhari threatened massive land and air protests so did Atiku Campaign Organizations, if-and-only-if, 2007 [s]elections were not nullified. From all political data-banks locally and nationally gathered, we can conclude that these fellows are quintessential liars, hypocrites, and apostates to their faithful—indeed. They can be summed up as political reprobates like those before them. The duo has neither dignity nor political purity to fall back to. In short, it is not enough to abandon them to political oblivion, the fact remains clinically clear that they should never be trusted with any public office with its responsibilities. As Obasanjo’s treacheries and shadows continue to chase him around, his mockery of institutional constitutionalism for eight years left a scar on the nation’s political psyche which betrayed him and his sycophants before the unsuspecting public. This mark of the beast will remain with him and all that aided in the further destruction of national and local infras

No nation can honestly embrace decency, civility or development under the galaxies of calumny, lies and pretensions. Conversely, either we match toward constitutional representative governance for national reconciliation for a unified whole—or in alternative—we should gird ourselves for the inevitable: speedy launching the estate toward a peaceful disintegration without firing a shot. Hypocrisy and dishonesty is inimical, antithetical to industrialization and caustic in today’s digitized modernity, etc. Additionally, it is also institutionally inimical for any societal development toward political purity and authenticity to occur under injustice and inequity. Under universal standards, including universal rule of law and other universal instruments, no state-parties, can be structured effectively and efficiently under the synergies of double-standards. Institutional mockery of actual representative governance by political actors and their followers remains a human rights violation and indeed a psychological aggression against the citizenry or a people. Buhari and Atiku and their cronies must know that hypocrisy and constitutionalism therefore has no relationship whatsoever in the making of a nation—be it instruments under states-parties founded under Arab-nationalism or otherwise. Accordingly, there is nothing more criminal in this dispensation than to project self as a democrat while in all intents and purposes one is a personified misrepresentation of an otherwise acclaimed actual representation of the subjects or followers. It is a SIN.

Political thinkers and analysts would be forced to ask: Where is practical applications of all the noises drummed up by Buhari and Atiku? Where are their promised troops who supposedly ought to match against Yar’Adua undemocratically imposition against the wishes of the citizenry?  Folks expected Buhari and Atiku to turn up the heat at the Supreme Court and all. They were expected to deploy all legally established institutional capacities were available in challenging this mockery called Yar’Adua’s insults. Their actions today, speak volumes as it amounts to hostilities against the citizenry and against universal democratic practices. Only apostates and corrupt politicians will shamelessly and disgracefully abandon their followers—the faithful for selfishness gains. Rather than sincerely confront national issues heads-on, they have cowardly and hypocritically passed on the buck to the suffering masses—the powerless and the defenseless people[s]. We will never forget these hypocrites in their brazen hypocrisies. As the land continue to suffer the impact of Obasanjo’s eight [8] year misrule and its attended decadence, he will be chronicled as one of the greatest thief and evildoer in the annuals of human-history. As the estate called Nigeria continues to depreciate politically and economically, the land will remember the devils that created these doomsdays. As Obasanjo have gone hiding in his fraudulently acquired Ottah Farm, Bell University , and others, he must realize that he who sows the wind shall reap the whirlwind. At the appropriate time he will be smoked-out to face the judgment-day. A justice that would drag him back to jail-house where he rightly belongs. Judgment day that will compensate for his crimes against humanity including those he committed at Odi-oma, Obi-Oku, Umuaka, Onitsha, Ibadan, Ijaw-land and other places. We are hopeful that the princes of Minna will root-out the toothed criminal amongst them with vexation for crimes against humanity; the princes in the west will dislodge the Adedibus in the same manner, so will the princes in the East dislodge the Kalus and their likes. Other domestic rogues such as Chris and Andy Ubas and more will pay for their sycophancies, servitudes and destructions that Anambraians have suffered in their hands these many years. As the land is littered with bloods of innocents, the righteous and defenseless masses, it shall surely be avenged for. It is a matter of time because the eyes of the Living God cannot treat iniquity with least degree of allowance. Only time!

As the country called Nigeria continue to spiral into political and economic irrelevance, and self-destruct, one is left to conclude the obvious: It’s fallen. When will this institutional shame and injustices end? At what point in time will the citizenry rise to its responsibility and hold these thieves accountable for their past and present crimes? Atrocious ills and evils demand drastic actions. There is no better time to begin than NOW. Events continue to reveal true characteristics of bogus-political practitioners that care for self and none other. These political practitioners posturing as messiahs are part and parcel of this imposition of un-elected Yar’Adua at the helm of affairs without people’s consents today. Rather than put an end to these corruptions, the citizenry have turned their faith to opportunism, to treasury looters with its beholden accomplices. They worship corrupt politicians whose political purity and authenticity stands questionable. Today, the population has been misled. Today they see evil as good and good as evil. Indeed, Buhari and Atiku have today shown that they are no democrats but reprobates. Their characteristic is today a blemish filled with lies—a betwixt apostates to the faithful. As they secretly lean and exchange gifts toward the platform of Arab-fundamentalism found in the northern caliphate for gains, we do know that they are examples of misrepresentation of people’s opinion and ethics. These fellows never believed in democracy. Anything reflective to institutional constitutionalism based on democratic principles is seen as an interruption of northern agenda—which is “positive dictatorship”. They are backsliding and backstabbing because criminally inaugurated illegitimate President Yar’Adua has formed an unholy alliance with them centered on Arab-nationalism. These expected developments notwithstanding, we warn that that Arabization of the entire enterprise cannot succeed. It shall surely fail. Buhari and Atiku’s acclaimed conversion to democratic principles and ideals is a farce. They are what they have always being: A big fraud!

From 1999 to 2003, Buhari confronted the dysfunctional Obasanjo’s administration for electoral irregularities including ballot stuffing and other electoral malpractices. Buhari pursued this legally through nations’ Supreme Court, Appeal Courts and other legal institutions, etc. Buhari challenged Obasanjo’s electoral fraud to a stand-still and countrymen and countrywomen stood by him. Today Buhari and Atiku have backed away from these legitimate means to embrace fraud. Their political morality if any, stand challenged and questioned. But standing up against evil machinations is everybody’s business not just the aforementioned fellows. As the re-rigging re-occurred in 2003 that ended in 2007 added fraud, it is clear therefore, that 2007 s[e]lections were the most abysmal, most corrupt and most brazen misnomer in history. Thanks to Maurice. During those days, Buhari and his political machines challenged illegalities; when Obasanjo and his cronies began their chase for Atiku for disrupting Obasanjo’s TTA and more, Atiku became a convert to political activism and challenged Obasanjo illegalities. Atiku’s political organization aggressively confronted Obasanjo hands-on, till Obasanjo’s dysfunctional administration inaugurated the illegality called Yar’Adua Presidency. Today Yar’Adua’s illegitimate administration faces legitimacy problems and will remain a lamb-duck entity until it’s dismantled and disgraced out of office. His biased release of Dukunbo without releasing Ralph Uwazurike stands as a belligerent postures against Igbo-nation, a hostility that must be confronted heads-on without hesitations.  

it is curious indeed, that Buhari and Atiku and their sycophants who were breathing fire and brim stone, calling for massive protests have organizationally vacillated. I just returned from the country called Nigeria last week and can attest to their hypocrisy, etc. Report trickling in indicates that Buhari and Atiku and their agents are negotiating with illegitimacy called Yar’Adua administration, demanding unspecified conditionalities against the wishes of the people. They are today seeking individual peace and comfort over collective bargaining and collective peace and development. As peace-takers, they have compromised public trust and abandoned their acclaimed political purity based on Arab-nationalism and Arab-brotherhood. Obviously, their bogus-One-Nigerianism and the so-called Nigeria-nationalism is a charade. Their political relevance has nothing to do with nationalism but more to do with Arab-nationalism at the detriment of all stakeholders within this collective Estate. A remark like “We have no other country except Nigeria , we must stay here to salvage it together” is a century deception. Nigeria is a geographical expression of many nations, nothing will change that. Folks should stop deceiving themselves into what us non-existence.    

As the bloc of Northern-Oligarchy and its leadership troops to Aso-Rock in a show of support for Arab-nationalism, Buhari and Atiku and their followers have disappeared into the thin air allowing their emissaries to publicly bargain for their political faith and future. Buhari and Atiku have disappointed and cannot be trusted. Theirs is an expression that epitomizes the deceptions and monumental misrepresentations of human decency and honesty. They should be jettisoned into the abyss aberrations. They placate and placed the Northern-Oligarchic managers and its strategic interests over national interests of the country called Nigeria and its nationals. Their pretensions and lies will not stand. They are what they are: LIARS and Hypocrites. Indeed, they will be consumed by their own political infamy. Their orderly lies began with their fathers and will not change anytime soon.  This has been established. Their political maneuvers’ have been what it is since the 40s, 60s and counting. It is all about Arab-nationalism and the quest for Arabization of the enterprise called Nigeria for their keep. Buhari and Atiku are not ready for the Prime-time called One-Nigeria. One-Nigeria is a mirage—a charade at the expense of Former Eastern-Region—that produces the buck of nations petro-dollars, etc. As these criminals and their political machinations continue in its destructive rampage, it is perhaps timely, even a wake-up call for Former Eastern region and its people to knit together and confront what is destroying their lands, waterways, creeks and swamps by taking a stand on what will determine their future and the future of their children and posterity yet unborn. Time is indeed running-out for the former Easterners against the backdrop that if they refuse to stand up and fight nobody will do it for them and, by the time these aliens complete the destruction of their lands and waterways—via globalization of their crude and gas they will be left with worst ever global warming and ecological disaster in human history. At the end of the day, Yoruba in the West will return to their region and Hausa-Fulani will return to the north as separate states-parties while our children will suffer the depletion and curse us for the colossal foolishness, stupidity, silence and criminal collaboration with these enemies of God against our strategic interests. Seeking self-determination by any means necessary or justice and fairness for all remains our better option. Niger-Basin economic relevance runs in billions in Petro-dollars that are plundered from our lands annually and seasonally. Despite these resources, we have nothing to show for the natural deposits from our towns, villages and cities.  Roads, schools, electricity and all other necessary infrastructural basic are non-existence. 

Finally, as enemies of God return to complete the destruction of our lands and waterways, created by domestic and national thieves, we face worse times more than any other time. In short, ubiquitous consequences face us, including far and imminent dangers in our own lands. Ecological depletions, decadence, degradation and disaster areas will increase and will run in zillions of dollars if we refuse to act today. Freedom will not come without great sacrifices. We must remember that when these places are left in ruination, we will have no place called home to return to. As Arab-fundamentalists in collaboration with Northern-Oligarchy, driven by Arab-nationalism resurface yet again, it makes much sense to confront this illegitimate return of a “Second Missionary Journey” that will finish-off the same land they left desolate, and ruination. We must remember that the socio-economic-political implications and fallouts will be most debilitating when compared to its 40 years disastrous mismanagement past by the same group. Mark my words! In the face of this outrage, there exist de-sensitization of our society as psychological war-fare and desolations besiege her without breathing space. Our societies and its citizenry suffer deprivation of unimaginable magnitude. This insanity is maddening under unprepared and unequipped people in the face of foreign engineered liberalization, privatization and globalization. An institutional imperialism and conflicting ideologies imposed by foreign gatekeeper cold-gated by the likes of Obasanjo’s former dysfunctional administration in collaboration with multinationals from rogue-states in Europe and North America is not helping . Indeed, we have become pawns and endangered species in their hands, especially as the citizenry lacks a sense of urgency. We have today endangered and compromised our ancient traditions of honor, family name, and old-time religion, abandoning our civilization and industrialization in the hands of crooks and foreign gatekeepers to our own institutional perils. Our dehumanization by oppressive regimes stands triumphant—the singular fact that we refused to abide by the warnings of our wise-ancestors of ancient days to establish societal independence free of foreign hegemony. Today it almost seems like a dream pipe that stands irredeemable or totally impossible to change the course without facing carnage of blood and horror as its prize. As Buhari and Atiku’s pretensions and avarice stares us in the face—it is essential and imperatively intelligent to review our thinking-rationality and economic and political rationalities and make relevant critically needed adjustments with all human capital, at all human developmental sphere for an indigenously driven nationalism to emerge. Nationalism not one centered on Arab-nationalism but one outside her. Indeed, observing universally driven diversity and tolerance would help—in facilitating the existence and maintenance of peaceful co-existence and, minimizing acts of provocations that would trigger unnecessary hostilities within internal and international territorial borders.
