State of the nation

We may have upgraded our compromised moral barometer, raised our non existent values barrier, highlighted our zero level tolerance for corruption, redacted our political history and yet, we still have Atiku Abubakar in contention for the highest office in the land.

The present administration is  understandably frustrated and has decided to accede her primary responsibility to a foreign nation by laying siege at the American embassy and hoping they do not grant Atiku a visa. And when he was purportedly given, they still hope he will be prosecuted there.

It is negligence and complete naivety to think it is convenient to take your baby to your neighbour to have a pamper changed and also help you investigate why your baby poo with the intention of having her punished for doing what all babies do.
With Buhari’s decision to pitch his tent in far East with China- where their leaders are alive but dead to corruption, America may have found a willing stooge in Atiku.

Colonialism has kept him this far and it will be foolhardy to think that  any imperialist government will take side with the Nigeria masses against the ruling elites that guarantees an unofficial steady stream of income  to their economy through our loots.
Help will not come from abroad, we must be relentless in getting out of all exploitative relationships with our compromised leaders wherever they are found.  And while you’re at it, this week, Tom Clancy's book, Dead or Alive will be arriving at my doorstep without any fanfare and I hope to finish reading it before anyone starts reading meaning to it.
