National Economic Recession

This is as copied from a friend on Facebook:
ECONOMIC RECESSION:
It has not been easy and nobody is pretending that it will be, but Nigerians have to understand that we must pass through this very difficult phase before things get better, and macroeconomics is no respecter of persons or regimes. It took President Obama the whole of his first term to reverse the tide of economic meltdown brought about by the fiscal recklessness of Bush administration to fund the Saddam-Iraq war; and the global recession, and it was only halfway through his second term that the outlook turned positive.
With the best policies, economists and largest fiscal footprint in the world, it took the United States almost six years to turn the tide from the economic meltdown that manifested at the end of the Bush administration. The economy does not respond to lamentations or criticism or political chicanery; and it took eight years of systemic maladministration under an atmosphere of unprecedented oil wealth to bring us to this sorry state. Why does anyone expect Buhari to wave a magic wand and suddenly shore up the value of naira, reflate our foreign reserves and crash food prices country wide? Have you counted the zeros behind the numbers coming out of the reports on stolen funds? Are you aware that our inherited foreign reserves are only slightly more than the amount in private domiciliary accounts? Do you know that illicit funds traced to a few individuals can fund several months of foreign exchange auctions? Are you aware of million dollars of NMA concealed and non-remitted to federal government TSA/CBN account by Hullmark Bank? Did you hear the recent news about the concealed and unremitted NNPC s’ over $2 billion to TSA/CBN account by nine commercial banks with Hullmark Bank inclusive? All this on a flimsy excuse that remittance of such money will lead to crash of the country banking sector!
I think we should thank our God and breathe a collective sigh of relief that a change at the helm of affairs has probably brought this country back from the brink of collapse, because a continuation of the former Jonathan government would not have exposed the mess we were in, we would just wake up one day and find that they have taken their private jets and handed over what is left of the country to Boko Haram insurgents, Biafra agitators, Niger Delta Avengers and Fulani herders.
It is not a question of policy, the fact is bleeding and wastage has to be stopped and a clear signal sent out that it cannot be business as usual; and I think what has been achieved in that regard in the last 12 months is nothing short of miracle. To be honest with ourselves, what was handed over to Buhari last year of the country was not far fetch from what Obama inherited in 2008 on assumption of the mantle of leadership in US.
Please REFLECT, RECONSIDER, REVERSE your negative attitudes today!
Regards!

Why Blacks Are Poor!

Chai! When I saw this,I thought you guys too need to see it. It's about the most painful truth about the black race! Happy reading!!!

*Why are blacks not wealthy*

Excerpts from an interview with a Jewish leader about Blacks.

INTERVIEWER:
Why are blacks so behind Economically?

JEWISH LEADER:
The only thing blacks understand is Consumption.

Blacks don't understand the importance of creating and building wealth.

The fundamental rule is to keep your money within your racial group.

We the Jews
- build Jewish business,
- hire Jewish,
-  buy Jewish and
- spend Jewish. There is nothing wrong with that but it is a basic rule blacks cannot comprehend and follow;

"He kills his fellow blacks daily instead of wanting to see his fellow black do succeed"

93% of blacks killed in America are by other blacks.

Their leaders steal from their people and send the money back to their colonial master from whom they borrow the same money from.

Every successful black wants to spend his money in the country of his colonial masters.

They
- go on holiday abroad,
- buy houses abroad,
-  school abroad,
- go for medical treatment abroad etc

instead of spending this money in their own country to benefit their people.

Statistics show that the Jew's money exchanges hands 18 times before leaving his community while for blacks it is probably a maximum of once or even zero.

Only 6% of black money goes back into their community. This is why Jews are at the top and blacks are at the bottom of every ladder of society.

Instead of buying
- Louis Vuitton,
- Hermes,
- expensive cars,
- shoes,
-houses,
-dresses etc,

Blacks could
- industralize Africa,
- build banks and get rid of colonial institutions by putting them out of business.

INTERVIEWER:
What is your thought on failure of blacks after 150yrs?

JEWISH LEADER:
Well, nothing is ever the blackman's fault. His
-compulsive habit of killing his own,
- compulsive material consumption.
-His inability to build businesses or
-preserve wealth are usually somebody else's fault.

INTERVIEWER:
So what can blacks do to liberate themselves

JEWISH LEADER: Blacks must take responsibility. Blacks must unite. And vehemently fight corrupt leaders who run down their country and run to IMF as though IMF is Father Christmas.

They need to look inwards otherwise they will continuously remain colonized and lose their place in history.

Pls forward this until it goes round the continent of Africa.

We all need to learn our lessons quick and build our Nation.

The So Called Lopsided Appointment of Buhari

I'm sorry guys for abandoning you like that. It's just that an idea bumped into my head and I had to bring it to reality,so important it is that I had to put every other thing aside.
I had kept mute about Buhari's appointment that was criticized by CAN and so many misinformed Nigerians on social media who were quick to pick on the list of posts that were exclusively the right of the President to choose those he believes he can work with as against following the Federal Character (our greatest hindrance to true nationhood if you ask me). I'm still yet to respond to the matter,but,I came across a professor's response and I think you should see it;may I relate his words? Happy reading:
*Prof. Adeyeye replies CAN on Buhari’s ‘lopsided’ appointments*

This rehash of the prominent positions held by Muslims in Nigeria is mischievous and quite unfortunate. It is the typical Nigerian game of chasing needless shadows rather than focusing on the arduous task of nation building.
Until recently, so-called Christians held commanding heights of the economic governance of our Republic. The Presidency, Headship of National Assembly, Secretary of Govt of the Federation, Head of Service, Ministry of Works, Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank, the NNPC, the Stock Exchange etc were headed by so-called Christians.
Tragically, they reprobately superintended the profligate looting of our common patrimony. The lone voice of courageous warning belonged to a certified Muslim, Sanusi Latino Sanusi, who succeeded Soludo and was hounded for his courage to expose the cult of looters comprising so-called Christians.
Yes, the metastasis of economic ruins in Nigeria was gestated by these Christians. They reduced Pentecostalism to a reprobate pente-rascality whereby the Dukes and knights of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria and the Christian Association of Nigeria became errand boys in the corridor of accursed political power. Their private jets were the conveyors of stolen money!
Tunde Fashola is a Muslim. He now heads what used to be three big ministries. Was he chosen because of his religion? He was chosen because of his track record!
The dust will settle in Nigeria. Change will come despite predictable resistance from reactionary principalities and forces. Hackneyed references to issues that divide rather than unite us whether by Muslims or Christians, are age-long stumbling blocks to progress.
It really is a shame when well educated Nigerians, whether Muslim or Christian, wobble themselves in religious intolerance. Unfortunately, the intolerance is nursed by some imams and pastors mouthing poorly considered facts. Even if seemingly compelling, facts degenerate into half-truths when they are placed, as is often the case, outside of proper context.
The toxicity of half-truths rarely emanates from the profligacy of falsehood but rather from the subtle distortion of truth! Blatant falsehood is intuitively obvious and as such easy to reject. By contrast, when truth is softly bent, it takes great discernment to perceive its toxicity.
The Constitution of Nigeria enshrines that every state must be represented in the Cabinet of the Federal Government. Even those of us who feel that this, by itself, creates a cabinet that is too unwieldy, must tolerate such a provision until our pluralistic, multi-ethnic and multi-religious republic evolves into organic nationhood. As such, whoever is the President of Nigeria must have a minimum of 36 Ministers.
Of the six ministers representing the Southwestern states, two (Fashola from Lagos and Shittu from Oyo) are Muslims while four are Christians (Adeosun from Ogun, Adewole from Osun, Fayemi from Ekiti and Daramola from Ondo). All the five ministers from the Southeastern states are Christians as are all six ministers from the states of the south-south. In other words, of the 17 ministers from southern Nigeria, 15 are Christians while 2 are Muslims.
In the North-Central, Audu Ogbe from Benue, Solomon Dalung from Plateau, James Ocholi (now deceased) from Kogi are Christians. The remaining three ministers from that zone are Muslims.
Even if all the ministers from Northeastern and Northwestern states are Muslims, we are left with a Federal cabinet comprising 18 Christians and 18 Muslims! We have a devout Muslim as President and a no less devout Christian as Vice President. The current composition of the Federal Executive Council is one in which only liars will complain that Christians have been marginalized. When in the history of Nigeria has a traveling President transmitted power to the VICE PRESIDENT? That is what Buhari does each time he travels.
Now let us move to the legislature. Of the 10 Principal Officers of the Nigerian Senate, only three (Saraki, Ndume and Na’alla) are Muslims! The remainder (Ekeremadu, Adeyeye, Alimikhena, Akpabio, Aduda, Bwacha and Olujimi) are Christians! Adeyeye and Bwacha are lay preachers. The House of Representatives is headed by a Christian. With such a composition, the Nigerian Legislature is not a place where Christians can be said to be marginalized. In fact, few people realize that there are more Christians than Muslims in the Nigerian Senate.
Now let us go to the Judiciary. How many judges of the Supreme Court has Buhari appointed? The answer is Zero! Is it fair to blame him for appointments that predated his own election into office? The fear of God, the love of country and basic human decency dictate that we reject an amalgamation of intellectual sophistry with the dereliction of truth.
Unfortunately, it is quite easy for detractors to pick and choose their facts in a manner that allows malignant campaigns of calumny.

Professor Adeoye Adeniyi, a former Vice Chancellor of the University of Ilorin, was a deacon at Oritamefa Baptist Church Ibadan. He was the Chairman at my wedding. He was also our pediatrician. When he was leaving the University of Ibadan to head the College of Medicine at Ilorin in 1978/79, he handed Oluwatobi (our daughter) to a Moslem doctor in his Department. I asked him why he did not hand us to a Christian. Professor Adeniyi smiled and said, “you do not need a Baptist or for that matter a Christian doctor; you need a pediatrician who will respond even if you call after midnight!”
I enjoy air travels. Sometimes, the plane gets to very rough and bumpy weather. At such times, my concern is not whether the pilot can speak in tongue or prophesy! Rather, one hopes that the pilot knows what to do in a storm even if he were a Buddhist or Moslem. May God guide our Muslim President aright as we wade through the fierce storms of contemporary Nigeria.
Like I told you earlier,these aren't my words,they were Copied ! I hope it was inspiring and enlightening? Keep the flag flying bro!
Naija for life!

We Need to Grow Up II

In the previous post,we started with the Ward Councillor who serves as a sort of liaison officer between us the people and the government in general. Now,we shall proceed to the LG Chairman.
The local Government Chairman.
He's the head of the closest tier of government to the people and if you ask me, the most powerful (I do have my reasons).
The ward councillor would submit our demands to the Local Government Council that's headed by the Chairman. The thing is that the Local Government Chairman does have his own budget and responsibilities. He also has the capacity to levy a tax and collect revenues by which he's expected to carry out his duties to the people. In addition to that, he receives allocations from the Federal Government. This,unfortunately,has been diverted into a joint account with the state government though.
With all these powers and resources, there should be very little need to cry out to the state government let alone the Federal.
But,do you know the name of your local government area chairman, what are his policies and plans for your local government, what is he doing to improve the living standard of people in your LG? If you can't answer these questions and still blame Buhari's regime,you are not being fair!
Your National and State Reps and Senators
These are 3 other dudes making the 5 NATIVE representatives you have in the Nigerian democratical system of government that are meant to fight for your interest. These guys are most often than not of same tribe and religion as you.
They claim to represent your interest in the Federal and state government and accordingly, they receive millions to billions on your behalf. The question is,do they deliver these monies to you,if no,have you ever deemed it fit to ask to what use they have put the monies. Have you ever asked them to account for their stewardship to you. They are to meet with you on regular basis, when was the last time they had a town hall meeting with you?
Nigerians Are Not Asking Questions
I know you might be wondering how you didn't get to think in this line before? Don't blame yourself,brother, it's not easy to think when you are under pressure to meet your daily needs. It's a long time fault of Nigerians in general. We don't ask questions about so many things...we are quick to blame everything on destiny and God. It's by God's design that so,so and so becomes a leader,don't judge if you don't want to be judged...these and many more other notions had kept us from asking questions over the years that today, we don't even know how to go about asking.
Protests Are Not The Answers,Community Participation is The Way Forward.
Like I demonstrated in the previous post,community participation in terms of forming local community forums,platforms and pressure groups are the means by which you get these guys' attentions,you would be able to constructively present your cases to your Ward Councillors and LG Chairmen. It's through them and your Senators and both Federal and State Representatives that you can reach and access the government in all tiers.
Ohanize indigbo would not find it difficult to get the attention of any senator,rep or even governor in the East. The same can be said of Afenifere in the West and Arewa  Consultative Forum up North. You need to form a local power house like that in your locality. Because democracy is a game of Numbers!
If these aforementioned political leaders are working in your interest, Buhari would have no choice but to listen to you.
But, in reality,we ignorantly leave these guys to do as they wish while they too, quietly busy themselves bleeding us dry while we shout on top of our voices at the President in Abuja. This is why we feel marginalized. We are not communicating the way we should so,we hardly get heard.
Militancy,insurgencies and communal clashes are not necessary and certainly not the right medium to air our views. Let's stop encouraging these means and teach our people the peaceful and the MOST EFFECTIVE ways of accessing the government. Guys,let's grow up!
Regards.

We Need to Grow Up!

From the previous post shall we continue,insha Allah. I remember that the last post ended with a question whose answer is quit obvious.

When a house boy messes up,what do you do?
Most of us do have horrible punishments awaiting such an erring servant. Why,then,do we treat our civil servants with respect when they mess up???
This is why I said Nepotism and marginalization are words of the ignorant...at best,amateurs in a democracy. How can you suffer marginalization when you have representatives in every tier of government? Not even the minority of a country should go around shouting marginalization.
Everyone has at Least Five Native Representatives.
If you are marginalized, then,you got at least 5 persons misrepresenting you. These five guys are people who had to campaign, contest and win elections in which you had voted. Most of you in your neighborhood voted for them and they are most often than not of same tribe and religion as you. They are your tribesmen and much more closer to you than the Governor or the President. You suffer coz these guys are not working for your interest. So,if you must hold anyone responsible for your misfortune, hold these guys responsible. They are:
Your Ward Councillor
You got your ward Councillor who is the closest to you. He probably lives next door to you. His duty is to represent your neighborhood in the Local Government Council. Normally, if your area has a complaint to lodge to the government it should be through this guy coz he's the closest of the political leaders to you. He's the one with whom you discuss communal problems and he in turn takes such complaints forward to the council where it shall be deliberated upon and decisions made. He should come back home to relate such decisions to you via town hall meetings - a platform through which you should meet regularly with him.
But I doubt if you know your Ward Councillor's name not to talk of his house or office. Yet,this guy goes to the Local Government Council regularly and get paid as much as N300 000 or more every blessed month for a job well done!
You Marginalized Yourself!
Honestly, this is the blunt truth. You don't know your ward councillor who happens to be your primary and surest access to the government in a democracy and you sit down there shouting marginalization on Facebook! Haba!
Boys should form socioeconomic community groups with their neighbours and discuss local community development at length among themselves. Then,you elect representatives amongst yourselves to meet and discuss same with your ward councillor and mandate him to deliver your message at the local government council meetings. Put your ward councillor to work!
He can't run,he lives in your neighborhood with his/her family meaning that he's always accessible to you. Continue to disturb him until he dances to your tune.
What If He Leaves The Community and Never Show Up?!
You report him at the Council of course,big deal! If he refuses to bulge,you warn him of his removal as your councillor and if after the warning,he still shuns his responsibilities to the community, then, you should begin his impeachment process.
All you have to do is meet to agree on removing him from office. This shouldn't be spear headed by a single person ,rather ,it should be a collective decision. This is to protect everyone involved. Anybody that's perceived to spear head the cause risks being attacked physically, spiritually or otherwise...let him see it as a communal decision as against incitement from an individual .
This means that the social community must be non partisan, fair and represent the people 100%. If this is the case gaining the support of the electorates in your area shouldn't be difficult at all!
We shall continue from here next time. Do have a lovely day. Barks de Sallah to my Muslim audience.
Regards.

Our Greatest Problem as Nigerians

Our greatest problem as Nigerians is not tribalism, its not Nepotism,marginalization or corruption. Our Greatest problem is ignorance.

Most Nigerians are Ignorant of how Democratic systems work.
Long before the emergence of the Europeans on the African continent,Africa was divided into kingdoms,emirates and empires. It was the Europeans that brought us democracy.
The British Lord it over us in Nigeria while the Lordships of Cameroon, Ivory coast, Senegal were in the hands of the French. In short, the European powerful shared Africa like an a inheritance of there's. This goes a lot to tell why some countries are somewhat imbalance when it comes to tribal affiliations. There are situations whereby people of same tribe fall into different countries. The people of Adamawa in Nigeria are a typical example of this political broo hoo waha.
Unfortunately, despite the level of exposure and education of the peoples of Nigeria,we still see ourselves first in tribal colours before the National colours of green white green. That's bad,pretty bad. This explains why we have been getting it wrong politically and unless we change this attitude of ours,we shall continue to embarrass ourselves in the global village we find ourselves today.
We need to grow up,wise up and abandon the useless,shameless tribal war we currently indulge in. No one should be shouting 'marginalization ','secession' or 'nepotism'.
We chant these words largely because we are ignorant of how a true democracy works. Funny enough,those that are supposed to know and lecture us seem much more confused than us! It's so disappointing!!!

Civic Education is the Answer
To so many out there,politics is a dirty game and it's not meant for the kind hearted. It is a game for the callous and criminal minds. Such is the impression and mindset of the majority of Nigerians,but, is that the case?
Politics is simply a methodology and activities involved in the running of a government.
Now,from the above definition ,there's nothing about it that suggests criminality. In fact,what it suggests is responsibility. In other words,being a social being,humans may have to interact and relate with one another. If that's going to be the case,there's need for law and order and to ensure that laws are effectively enforced we need some people to volunteer to see to it. We would also need highly intelligent and dedicated people to make the laws as well. This is why we need leaders...political leaders.
We need to ensure peaceful coexistence in our communities and to ensure that,we need to find responsible,intelligent and trustworthy people  to run these affairs for us. That's the true essence of the civil service and political leaders. So,by implication, the President, governors,senators,honourables and any other person that was elected to office and all those that work for and with them are in actual facts servants...our servants!
Now,that's the message for today. All political post holders and government workers of all sorts are actually my servants,your servants our servants why? Because we are the ones that put them there. We gave them all the powers they wield and our common wealth in trust. They are like our houseboys that do all the dirty laundry for us. When a house boy messes up,what do you do?
Now, don't answer yet,just keep it there against the next time we meet. Thanks for reading this far,really appreciate it.
Regards.

The Problem and Solution of the Niger Delta

Having discussed,at length, the evil and illegality of the Niger Delta Avengers and any other militant group for that matter,it is imperative on me to also discuss their replacement.If the militancy must be shunned as a means to reach the government,then,their must be replacements that must be much more effective than militancy.This is what we shall be discussing today.

THE PROBLEM
The problem with the Niger Delta is NOT peculiar to the Niger Deltans alone,it's a national disease.Nigerians are generally misrepresented at all levels of government and we seem confused as to how to remedy the anomaly.But, our diverse cultural backgrounds,of course, led to the different reactions with which we respond to this same problem...they say it is problem of leadership.But I beg to disagree though.
It is my honest and humble believe that there would be no leaders where there are no followers.Looking from the angle of Democracy which happens to be the the political system of Nigeria,the leaders are the products of the followers and not otherwise.
It is us the followers that saw the need for leaders and we decided to choose them via elections and voted them not to lord it over us but to serve us.They are,therefore,our servants and not our masters.How come,then, is it happening the other way round?

We Are Yet to see Ourselves as Citizens of a Country
This,in fact,to the best of my knowledge,our greatest undoing!Nigerians are unaware of the existence of the Nigerian state.When it comes to issues of national security or issues in general,we are quick to segregate ourselves into tribes and ethnic groups.What we know and live by is the same as with our fore-fathers way before the emergence of the Europeans on the African Continent.So,technically speaking,Nigeria is non-existent.This is,however, a topic for another day.So,let's concentrate on the subject matter and move to the second reason.

Most Nigerians are Ignorant of the Mechanisms of Democracy
Democracy is no doubt a game of numbers.If your number falls short,you'll loose but if your number is highest,you'll win.This is the name of the game.Majority carries the day!
If this is the case,then,it means that if your demands must be met,you should be able to cajole the larger number of your people to support your cause.Now,let's go to the field and apply the principle to the issue of the Niger Delta.
Again,the major reason for the struggle in the Niger Delta,is the demand for the cleanup of the region of the oil pollution that has plagued their communities for so long that are due to the activities of the Oil companies. I want to belief that there's no person of the Niger Delta region extract that would oppose the move.If this is the case,then, I think the cleanup of the region is a sure-banker!
This is because the nature and principles of democracy demands that people should choose their representatives via elections and communicate with the government through them.In other words,if in your immediate environment,there's a need for government's intervention,you are to lodge your complaints in writing to the Federal government as a form of bill to the National assembly.But,the question is that how many of both your National and state representatives do you meet and how regularly???
The bitter truth is that both the National and state representatives,plus the governor and the local Chairmen are indigenes of the respective areas they represent and collect millions of cash on their behalf monthly or quarterly as the case may be.Yet,they haven't been talking,why?
Normally,in a democracy,it's the political office holders that should be doing the talking and not a criminal set up like militant groups.This is certainly where the problem lies,the people of the Niger Delta,as well as most parts of the country are misrepresented!But why?

Because Nigerians Don't Ask Questions!
If you are misrepresented by your leaders and you are not complaining,then,it's as if you are okay with the way things are and that's your own cup of tea!
There are avenues by which we can lodge our complains and be heard.If our representatives and political office holders are not championing our cause,we should be concerned and express our displeasure with such individuals.If after a couple of warnings they refuse to dance to our tune,we should kick them out of office of course!
The constitution is very explicit as to how such insensitive leaders can be removed and replaced by others that we believe would do our bid.But considering the Lions and Devils that are in power,that would be a bit difficult.But,wait o! The fact that it's difficult does not mean it is not possible...hmmm!
Okay! I got an idea!!!

Community Networking is the Answer!

Ever since the emergence of the social media,communication has become a breeze and no more a hassle.We get the news almost as soon as it happens and decisions can be made very quickly which makes working and doing business a lot easier.Such is the power of the social media!
The social media helped a great deal during the Arab Spring especially when it was Egypt's turn to revolt.A great deal of mishaps on the side of security forces were easily exposed and used as evidence of government brutality.In Nigeria,the social media was a major campaigning tool in the hands of All Progressive Congress (the APC and the ruling party) during the very recent elections.It was so effective that despite the incumbency of the People's Democratic Party (the PDP),the APC won the Presidential and very many other electoral posts available.Overnight,the social had helped to downturn the tables...the opposition became the Ruling while the Ruling turned the Opposition party!
I took the time to cite these examples so that you can appreciate the power of Networking!I stand to be corrected,in the Niger Delta,there doesn't exist a formidable Community Network to champion their cause.When I talk of a community network,I'm referring to a very strong group with a very,very,large member base.The Brotherhood of Egypt comes to mind.
The Brother was so large in population that they produced Morsi as President.Even after the removal of Morsi, General Sisi (the incumbent President) had to find a way to outlaw the Brotherhood because,he knows that the Brotherhood is a force to reckon with anytime,any day and the only way to gain victory over them is to ban them when he can! So,when I'm talking here,I'm talking of a very big community and not a group of touts coming together to form a militant groups or gangs by which they hope to extort the government.

Niger Deltans should form a Platform that Commands Respect.
Let explain with an analogy.We all know that elections are won by the number of votes you can garner.If your number is the highest,you are the winner.there's need,therefore,for the formation of a single body that has NO party affiliation,you join the group for one reason and one reason only which is none other than,of course,(in the case of the Niger Deltans) to be a part of the progress and prosperity of the Niger Delta region.
The Body must be a non-governmental,not politically bias,speaks with one voice and see all Niger Deltans as same and equal!If such a body is formed successfully,then,getting the attention of the government,at any level to listen to you would be as easy as a pie!Why? Because,they know that with your population,you can make or break any politician during election!!!
The Governors,Local government,Chairmen,Senators and House of Reps both at the state and federal level plus the ward Councillors would be at your beck and call anytime any day.When you sneeze,they'll catch cold.Unless the Niger Deltans come together as one politicians and their god-fathers would continue to call the shots which is not favorable most of the time.They would continue to wield the powers of anarchy despite the fact that we are in a democracy. The Number is the key not militancy,crime,force or violence!

Niger Deltans should Call their Political Leaders to Account for their Stewardship
The Federal Government is in faraway Abuja,while your Ward Councillors,Local Government Chairmen and Governors are close by.I think you should ask them for all that you want...be it the clean up,restoration of the Ecosystem and return of your economic activities.They are the ones that are expected to champion your cause not the Militants.Call them to order now. But know this,they won't take you seriously unless you unite and present your issues from only one front and with only one voice!I rest my case for now!Thanks for your time.
God Bless Nigeria!
