As Another May 29 beckons: That Nation in Custody

By Adeola Aderounmu

A few years ago, I wrote about a book called “The Entrapment Of A Nation”. In that book, Nigeria is the nation. But I borrowed the title from a great Nigerian author Naiwu Osahon whose book “A Nation In Custody” I read as a teenager. I will never know why my father bought me that book. There must be a message in the purchase of the book as much as I took many messages with me from the book. Not that I remembered those messages from the book right away, but I think I learnt the meaning of the word “haphazardly” from the book. That sums up all I remember. Imagine a nation, Nigeria, created haphazardly, and operated haphazardly. Imagine infrastructure created haphazardly, imagine the way of life haphazardly organized. Imagine education, roads, houses and even the human mentality in Nigeria haphazardly organized. Got the picture yet? Or do you need to check the meaning of haphazard?

If their plans go ahead, the Nigerian-APC led government will transfer political power to one Bola Ahmed Tinubu. In 2007 (that is 16 years ago), I wrote about Bola Ahmed Tinubu on this blog. Yes, this same blog (one of Africa’s longest blog).

(https://adeola.blog/2007/12/21/the-nigerian-untouchables-2-bola-ahmed-tinubu/)

It should still be possible to still grab my opinion about Tinubu though many of the external links on that article are now invalid.

I realized that I did not write any article for the month of April 2023. That is a big surprise and how time flies! But I was observing all the nonsense that transpired since the useless election of 2023. I always just imagine how stupid some people can be actually. I mean, if you call yourself a naija person and you did not know before the (s)elections that Tinubu would be rewarded with the victory, then how truly naija are you? You must be the dumb version of naija person, for real.

On many occasions, I re-echoed what I knew of Naija elections since 1979 and then we have all seen the trend since 1999 when Abdulsalami rubber stamped Obasanjo and so on. Then you come online and shout I am obedient. That is fine! But to expect anything else that INEC published is simply being dumped. But fight all you want, maybe history will be kind to you.

Perhaps you will bring some form of organization into the haphazard nature of Fraudgeria, your Nigeria.

I will surely continue to write about Fraudgeria for as long as I can.

But it is the Yoruba Nation that must find her way out of custody today or tomorrow or someday in the future. It is a necessary and compulsory occurrence for the re-emergence of the glory of the Yoruba race and the re-assurance of the glory of the African.

Here I am putting together a number of issues in a disconnected manner but there is a sense I’m trying to make. Four years from now, if we all tarry, there will be a repetition of the tribalistic and bitter politics that showed that Nigeria is a fraud (Fraudgeria) put together by the British gangsters since 1914 for the orgy of the British royals. Everything in Nigeria is focused to grabbing the power at the center in order to control the rest of the criminal set-up called Nigeria.

After May 29, the pretense will continue. The politicians will settle down to share and spread loots. They will lie about the Boko Haram war that continue to eat deep into the mainland of the North, approaching the center. They will lie about the spread of the Fulani who have sacked many indigenous populations across the country. They will lie about the conquest battle or jihad that continue to spread like a snake poison. A few more people will be made rich by the new connections in the new government of Jagaban. Several millions will remain in poverty and a few more millions will join them in penury. Jagaban will travel abroad to take care of his health while the people perish in a system that was made to kill them.

Nigeria is a rollercoaster playing on repetitions of the failures of history. A people that do not learn from their past to correct their presence in order to ensure a prosperous future will continue to waste away from one generation to the next. If there is one truth that was confirmed in 2023, it is the fact that the various nations entrapped in Nigeria hate one another, not necessarily at the individual level, but at the group and organization levels. Individuals can marry across nations, they can do business across boundaries, and they can profess what they think, but the outcomes of the INEC election of 2023 showed us where we stand at the group levels. We are not one, we will never be one.  

My opinion is that each nation entrapped in Nigeria should be set free and allow to prosper at its own pace. Each nation should be allowed to go back to where they were before the invaders from Europe and Middle-East disrupted and stole our civilisations. The system of government in Nigeria especially is very ridiculous. How does it sound when one man will decide the fate of more than 200 million others? A perfect starting point for Fraudgeria is the total dismantling of slavery as a form of government.

MAY 29 is a Fraud created by the pdp

It is very sad that some Nigerians around the world join the useless celebration of the useless pdp type of democracy. In 1999 Obasanjo came to power in Nigeria under the PDP and he was sworn in on May 29. That does not make May 29 Nigeria’s democracy day.

Obasanjo climbed on the remnant of the glory of June 12 1993 to become a “settle the Yorubas” president. Abiola won on June 12 1993 and he was imprisoned by the illiterate Abacha and murdered by Abdulsalami with the help of Bill Clinton’s messengers who gave Abiola a poison to drink.

People must not forget this and our history must not be distorted. Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation-NIDO continues to act stupidly, childish and moronic when they assemble people around to world to mark May 29 as Nigeria’s Day of Democracy. That is total madness.

To even think of it, is there democracy in Nigeria? The answer is NO!
Votes have never been counted in Nigeria. It is always a settlement case in the end that one group outsmarts the other to claim victory. It depends on who controls the state or federal Electoral group.

The other week 35 governors voted in an election and after 2 weeks, no one is sure who won the election to lead the governors’s forum. In Nigeria it is impossible to count 35 votes! Yet some lame organisations are helping the useless government to celebrate democracy day.

Is there democracy in a country that cannot count 35 votes successfully?

Those who want to highlight the positives with Nigeria should continue to do so. We have our rights to choose on which side of the fence we perch. What will be unforgivable is the clear distortion and misrepresentation of the situation in Nigeria.

To include the madness of the people like Okupe and Abati (the bulldogs of Goodluck Jonathan) is not the part of today’s blog entry. Those ones have lost their minds for the love of money, fame and power. Abati and Okupe are lost dogs. The whistle make no sense to them.

 

Footnote: June 7, 2018. There have been contradictory views on how Abiola died and no one has been charged for his murder. Some now belived he was beaten to death on the orders of the government of Abdulsalami. Whichever version is true, Abiola died under the watch of General Abdulsalami.

MAY 29 2007-MAY 29 2008:Another Year Wasted!

Adeola Aderounmu.

It’s been one full year since an illegitimate government was installed or enthroned in Nigeria. One can easily be deceived that Nigeria is ungovernable because of the divergence of people, opinions, cultures, attitudes and size of the country. But Nigeria is not the only country that is diverse in such many ways.

What is missing and what has eluded Nigeria is sincerity of purpose on the parts of the political class and the useless military that have plunged the country since 1960. To this day, a typical Nigerian politician is a looter and an opportunist. All he or she is aspiring towards is self-betterment and personal enrichment. The other aspects of him/ her are deceit and pure hypocrisy.

Corruption remains the main thing in Nigeria-our biggest ailment. Politicians continue to loot and milk-away the country to dryness. They are never prosecuted and when they are prosecuted, they walk away with total freedom after a deceitful trial and bail session. Who is fooling who? All the ex and serving politicians who have stolen monies from the national treasury are still enjoying their loots while the rest of us suffer, just like that!

Millions of dollars continue to disappear from the treasury daily under shady and covered deals. Nothing is done to improve the standard of living in the country. What is the essence of the few flashes of magnificent buildings in Abuja when it is made only for a negligible part of the population? Those things in Abuja mean nothing and they serve no purpose to more than 90m people living below poverty line and surviving on less than 2 dollars a day.

Nigeria needs 100 000 MW of power but she is generating less than 1 000 MW. How can a sane mind explain this? One year after the illegitimate coming of Umaru Yar Adua, power supply has gone worse. Those who stole and mismanaged billions of dollars that were earmarked for electricity development in the past 8 years are living as freemen. What a country? Those kinds of people belong in life-time jail because their negligence has sent thousands to the grave beyond. Their ineptitudes have destroyed lives and homes. They have spread sadness in the land, and the sadness and darkness persist to this day-May 29 2008 and beyond.

In other aspects of our lives as Nigerians, we are on our own while the government continues to operate at a frequency that does not tally with the expectations of the masses. The governments in Nigeria do not care about the Nigerian people. The politicians are thieves in disguise. They lie to the people and they rigged their way into power. Imagine this very wicked gang led by Yar Adua asking the people to pay more for electricity which is not even available in the first place. Absolute nonsense and senselessness!

In Nigeria, nobody cares if you have water to drink or if you “hunger to death”. Nothing is plan and nothing is in focus. The hospitals are not functioning to optimum level. Even the illegitimate president goes to Germany for treatment of his own ailment. What a shameless man? Why didn’t he build any hospital in Katsina State when he was a governor FOR 8 WHOLE YEARS? Has anyone thought about that?

Housing is an issue that is not tabled in the Nigerian government agenda. I don’t remember the last time estates or residential areas were designed and executed in that country. It is up to you as an individual to loot somewhere and build your own house. Only very few people can work legitimately to achieve such noble dreams. Majority do it at the expense of other people who must suffer. Rare and Scanty Mortgage houses are up for the rich and mighty. Where is the hope of the common man?

This country Nigeria is known worldwide as a producer of oil. Yet in a very shameful way, Nigerians continues to import petroleum products for use in Nigeria. The refineries are not working at all or they are working inefficiently. All these years of talking and talking, these civilian and military idiots in power cannot do something to build new refineries or make the available ones work maximally/ optimally. How many shameful things and mad acts can one see in governance by these gangsters?

Really, hopelessness persists. Look at the network of roads. Highways are in terrible conditions and all tiers of governance are looking the other way. Nigerian roads are terribly, terribly bad and annoying. Expressways have become snail-ways. Rather than settle down to work, these senseless politicians go about jumping from one country to another. They move from one hotel to another and from one useless function to another. They don’t even know what they are doing. Absolute scalar quantities!

The Nigerian people too do not even know their rights at all. They are just doing follow-follow. Many political thieves are still waiting for their own opportunities to steal and loot directly and indirectly. In general, the lack of purposeful leadership and the presence of a powerless followership are rubbing this country of her greatness. What is left of Nigeria is individual’s will to succeed at any cost. If you take away self-will, there is no country left to call Nigeria.

How long shall we complain about all these ills before we begin to see remarkable changes that will touch the lives of more than the 140m people? How long before corrupt politicians are sentenced to prisons? When will thieves in political offices be shown the way out? When will violence stop and when will the votes be counted? How many more fuel pipeline explosions are we going to have this year?

Who will save our souls?
