ADVOCATING THAT POWER SHOULD REMAIN IN THE NORTH COME 2023, IS A SECURITY THREAT TO NIGERIA’S CORPORATE EXISTENCE.

IT IS VERY WICKED, UNPATRIOTIC AND UNGODLY FOR THE NORTH TO SEEK TO RETAIN POWER AFTER BUHARI’S TRAGIC AND COLLOSAL 8 YEARS OF CORRUPTION AND MISRULE. SUCH AN ADVOCACY IS A DIRECT CALL FOR NIGERIA’S VIOLENT DISINTEGRATION

BY PAUL DAVID CHUKWUDI OBIANASO, PhD.

Recent news has it that former President Goodluck Jonathan has endorsed Alhaji Atiku Abubaker (PDP Flag bearer for 2023 elections). If that is true, then it shows Jonathan has learnt no lessons from the way he was deceived, proved a coward, humiliated and blackmailed out of Office by Buhari and his dangerous gang of Political buccaneers.

Remarkably, Jonathan had this unrealistic “mantra”: ‘my ambition is not worth the blood of a single Nigerian’.

What a misguided line of thought! Jonathan’s ambition was to return to Power after 8 years of Buhari. In his naivety and ignorance, he could not understand that it is a basic duty of every Moslem to deceive any infidel. He was deceived (taqiyya) and remain deceived if he is now supporting Atiku, perhaps being promised the Presidency once again, after one term by Atiku.

That is grand taqiyya. The Moslem North has perfected this act against others parts of Nigeria. Infact, they give the same taqiyya treatment to the so called Moslems from the South. We shall see how Tinubu will end up, courtesy of this taqiyya grand Principle.

That we have not heard Jonathan condemn the killings, kidnappings and multiple massacre of hundreds of thousands of innocent Nigerians under the Buhari led Administration is because he did not want to rock the boat and jeopardize his chances of staging a Presidential come back.

Jonathan’s ambition has cost hundreds of thousands of lives because he failed to act when he had the Power as he was afraid of even his own shadow. But, then, was his brother not kidnapped a couple of months ago? In effect, his fears won’t save him from all dangers.

Should we then assume that Buhari’s ambition is deserving of spilling the blood of many hundreds of thousands of innocent Nigerians?

Come to think of it, the erudite, selfless and highly Patriotic Yoruba icon, High Chief Ayo Adebanjo, (unarguably Nigeria’s most respected Elder Statesman alive today), Leader of Afanifere, the Yoruba Socio-Cultural Organisation had made the strongest case for Southeast Presidency (based on Fairness, Justice & Equity) adducing Political and historical reasons why the Southeast should be allowed and supported to produce the next President, come 2023.

When one reflects on Nigeria’s geopolitical history and consider how the North has forcibly monopolised Political Power in Nigeria over the past five decades, it will make any reasonable observer wonder why anyone would advocate that Power should remain in the North.

The North does not have much to show for the many decades during which it monopolised Political and Military Power in Nigeria. This is due to excessive corruption and selfishness on the part of Northern elites and the Ruling Class.

Ironically, for a man who deceived almost everyone that he is incorruptible, yet, under this same Buhari, corruption has climbed to the highest peak since the emergence of Nigeria as an lndependent Country, in the year 1960.

Unprecedented Political corruption by way of Political appointments of over 98% of Fulanis and other Northerners into all Public Offices is one of the obnoxious legacies of Buhari, yet some people are advocating that another Northerner or APC should come and continue where Buhari stopped?

Former Lagos State Gov, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, who led the congregation of some vicious Political buccaneers and strategists that brought Buhari to Power now claim that it is his turn to be President, whether Nigerians like it or not. It is the first time in the history of Nigeria that an individual is making personal claim to Nigeria’s Presidency.

That’s how low it has gotten. An individual claiming a personal right to a Country’s Presidency? What an absurdity?

That obnoxious claim is made more annoying when the contentious background —- character, records, health status and Muslim – Muslim ticket Tinubu is flying are brought into focus, within proper context and plurality.

While High Chief Ayo Adebanjo, the highly respected Afanifere Leader, other Patriotic Nigerians and Groups are busy advocating for the Southeast to produce the President come 2023, yet some lgbos, in pursuit of their evil and wicked selfish ambitions, completely devoid of (lgbo) group interests are seriously campaigning against the only lgbo Presidential Candidate likely to win the Presidency come 2023.

The claim by those lgbo Political jobbers and turncoats that, they are not supporting Southeast to produce the next President because of Loyalty to their various Political Parties is a Political hocus pocus and mischievous adjusdem generis bumkum, predicated on some unfounded akpukative hyperboles. It all amounts to assassination of Public good and interest, fairness, equity and justice at the alter of perfidy and personal aggrandizement, to say the least.

For those who care to ask, if Tinubu or Atiku becomes the next President of Nigeria, will Nigeria recover or survive as an indivisible, stable and Peaceful Country?

We should look for some answers at the face of the fierce lslamic terrorism and fundamentalism compounded by widespread violent Jihadism against non Moslems in Nigeria since Buhari came into Power. Any christian support for APC’s Muslim Muslim ticket is akin to suicide for all supposed christians engaging in such. Supporting APC means more than continued lslamic domination in Nigeria. It means, supporting full and complete lslamisation of Nigeria.

Buhari has shown complete disdain for Christians through his actions, Policies and Appointments into National Public Offices.

Tinubu and his apologists in Lagos has no whalms threatening the lgbos or other ethnic groups in Lagos and often reminding them that, with all their wealth, if they don’t do their bidding, they shall be thrown into the Atlantic Ocean, as was once threatened by the Oba of Lagos, an appointee of Tinubu.

In all, let those advocating that Presidency should remain in the North beware!

When some very arrogant Northerners call you their slaves, don’t be angry as some of you are indeed willing slaves without a future or any hope of FREEDOM for you or your future generations.
