BEFORE the NATIONAL NUNC DIMINITUS by Mkpisi.
It is now known even in the Moon that Nigeria is in great Mess, especially the economy, security and she is drifting toward unholy Segregation, but is that the immediate worries?.
There are issues that needs immediate remedies, perhaps we can get this Nation back on a Wheel Chair, then by grace it might be popped up with Clutches and after an ointment massage, she may stand again without any aide, but there are things needed to be put right again..
1) The President with his age and present failing health associated with old age(In Igboland, no man or woman of that age still heads Kindred meeting or any other because he has done his best and move on, unless his generation Begat no man that is capable and able, which we consider an insult to the gods) , should be begged to rest and enjoy his retirement in peace, then allow his Deputy take the Baton and finish the race, perhaps they may end strong with different and Youthful idealogy.
What the Nation need now is not completely revival, but evident hope that things is fairing better,meaning that our tomorrow is assured, as we speak things has fallen apart, that we don't even know where is the center.
The Rich cry more than the poor, as poverty today in Nigeria is like Asoebi/ASHEBI, everybody wear one with smiles, but it hit the Rich worse because they believe in the Book of the Damned Chapter 17 vs 42, which provides "A chopping mouth is committed, so instead for a Chopper to stop chopping, may those who never Chop stay hungry".
We should know that very soon, the poor will start eating the Rich for breakfast, the family of the Rich for lunch, and thier properties used as Fire wood.
In my neck of the wood, we have a saying "when you pursue a goat to end of the Wall, she will bite you", we know goats don't bite, but leave her without option and you see She can bite.
2)The Fulanis should understand that when one takes the Meat, the Bone, the Hide in a combine plate of food that is supposed to be shared by group, those who stands as shareholders but were schemed out will be waiting in silence with perfect and united hatred, when opportunity calls, they will want more than a pound of flesh and in all truthfulness, the world is like Sun, it rotates on all side, so when it comes to your side try not to be treacherous because you can never keep Sun at your Yard, it must shine on your neighbors Compound too.
You have taking all things both the Big, the medium and the tiny, others are watching including AWUSAS who saw you as migrated Oligarchy within the Clan which make them unhappy people, so when the moon turns round be rest assured that the Kind of hatred meted to Ndigbo will be a child's play to what others Tribes will have for you, and be rest assured that when the Nation Unites to deal with you, not even the gods will intervene because when even the gods joins a conspiracy, the fate is decided.
You should loosing up certain hold, relax the choking approach, then remember that the worst thing you can do to any Man is to push him to insolvency, then he has nothing go loose and you have all to loose, the result is never bad to him as he has been seeing similar as way of life, which you haven't tasted.
No one stays powerful for a century, because that makes even the gods uncomfortable, so they provide avenue for change of Mandate, which takes me to the case of Major Mustapha who was the strongest Man during the Era of Abacha, but once Abacha died that was the day his powers got bottled up and those he stepped on the toes started unplucking his wings.
I advise relax the maximum hold in Governance, because this Government have shown that one can surround self with even his Village as long as he is in power and can do anything without fears or consequences, so next Government will borrow certain lessons and most of them will antagonize you and yours.
Nigeria has gone through the Lordship of those Sons of the Queen who they call her Majesty and we chased them out for a black brother slavery, which wasn't so pronounced all this while but is now, and it has become a test case of Do what you want and nothing will happen, the next President may find things from same Rule book and either way the pendulum will swing on reverse, so I pray you to see the handwriting on the Tiles and make great amendment, so that others will see it as just a Phase and not a plague.
I Understand that when ones father is store keeper in a banquet, he will be entitle to many goodies, but once the feast is over those who never gotten a bite will rose for a pay back.
When Obasanjo was in Power, we witness OPC running all over the place but was territorial, also we note that once he was put of power, they fizzled out.
When Jonathan came to Power, the Militant snarl with fierceness that made the Nation think they will Chew American MARINE as Meat, beat American Seal like pauper, they build a legend but once Jona made that Call, they all disappeared like Powder in the Wind.
Now with General Buhari, we witness BOKO HARAM, HERDSMEN, UNKNOWN GUN MEN, and the rest, but once another President comes into Power, they all will fizzle out like others, so I advise a balanced dividend.
Finally, let me end with this.. A General should know that even his Gateman, Butler, Driver, Cook are more powerful than he is, so continual belittling them moves a General closer to his grave.
All tribes are powerful in certain fields and the best is to manage all with balanced attitude, so it can become Biri Kam Biri and nobody goes the extra mile to seek Balance to the affairs.
