NO OPERATION AMOTEKUN

The recently established Western Nigerian Security Network code named operation Amotekun is a welcome development geared towards re-tooling our internal security architecture such as to effectively address the yawning gap in the provision of adequate security to the people of the region. This is very much overdue.

The development has a salutary effect on the pervading pessimism on the capacity of the Federal Government to secure lives and properties of citizens and if properly coordinated and managed, will form the pedestal for the emergence of State and Local Government Police respectively.

Amotekun should be seen as a re-enforced and reequipped version of forest guards whose duty is to protect environmental flora and fauna but, Amotekun should go beyond that and be directly charged with the responsibility of combing the nooks and crannies of urban centres, our forests and hinterland in order to fish out criminals like kidnappers who use the bush as their operational base as well as cattle rustlers who invade and kill farmers in their farms.

Hence, Amotekun should be granted the power to harness our traditional ways and means with Light arms and ammunitions in the discharge of their responsibilities as well as the power to arrest and prosecute criminals.

I commend the South Western Governors for coming up with Amotekun, despite their political differences in the interest of securing lives and properties of the people of their region. I believe very strongly that since Operation Amotekun is grass root-oriented security outfit, there is compelling imperative to integrate our traditional institutions like Agbekoya etc and traditional nucleus powers in to its operations with our Oba’s playing direct and effective roles in their operations, for us to achieve the much desire goal in that direction.

Very importantly, Amotekun operational vehicles must be equipped with neon lights at their roofs, which boldly display AMOTEKUN inscriptions. Specific coded identification numbers must be assigned and written on each vehicle. Also, each vehicle must be equipped with radio gadgets and walking-talkies for effective co-ordination and speedier information gathering and dissemination.

Governance is all about the interest and welfare of the general good of the people, the uproar in some quarters regarding Amotekun based on fear of abuses here and there should be jettisoned, because the people stand to gain a lot in strengthening and restoring confidence/hope in a bewildered citizens who hardly go to bed with their two eyes closed, due to an overwhelming sense of insecurity enveloping the land.

AUNG SAN SUU KYI AND NOBEL PEACE PRIZE

By The Grace of the Grace, we would like to appeal to your esteemed organization to consider my request on the activities and behaviors of AUNG SAN SUU KYI, one of recipient of the prestigious Nobel Peace Prize. As The Living Perfect Master, Father of all Creation and Divine Custodian for global Peace, Unity, Freedom, Liberty and Justice, my appeal is predicated on the ongoing global outrage against the atrocities and genocide perpetuated against innocent of people Rohingya by the authorities in Myanmar, for no fault of theirs, simply because of their minority birth and religious belief.

The imperative for this Divine Interventionist role becomes more compelling when juxtaposed against the back-drop of the fact that the current carnage against the ethnic minority citizens of Rakhine State in Myanmar is carried out under the watchful eyes of erstwhile opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi, who is currently Myanmar defector president, whose party was massively voted to power, considering her past struggles to free the people from years of military dictatorship, which brought her to limelight as an international symbol of peaceful resistance in the face of oppression.

The edifying virtue, which Aung San Suu Kyi represented then was so endearing that the Nobel Prize Committee in 1991, considered it appropriate to honor Ms. Suu Kyi as the winner of Nobel Prize for peace, describing her as “The Lady of an outstanding example of the power of the powerless.” Sadly enough, since Ms. Suu Kyi came to power as de facto head of Buddhists-majority, Myanmar civilian administration in 2016 till date, well over 700,000 out of about a million Rohingya populations have fled their homes to Bangladesh as refugees. Many have lost their lives while women are mindlessly raped by men in military uniform. Ms. Suu Kyi’s failure to condemn the military onslaught against defenseless civilian as well as taking necessary steps to bring the ugly situation under control have provoked some world governments and international organizations that gave her honorary awards in recognition of her laudable role in the past to withdraw their various recognitions since Ms Suu Kyi’s present role no longer fit into her erstwhile nomenclature for justifying her qualification and subsequent nominations for those awards.

From all indications, Ms Suu Kyi has lost track of the realities on ground in Myanmar for her denials of truth and public defense of the murderous Generals in her cabinets, who according to her are rather sweet, not with standing their acts genocide against the people of Myanmar. In the light of the above, men/women of conscience got confounded with the UN investigative report indicting Myanmar authorities and her military for carrying out mass killings and gang rapes with “genocidal intent”, calling for the persecution of Myanmar’s Commander-In-Chief and five other Generals for “the gravest crimes under international law” and the blunt refusal of Nobel Committee to withdraw the honorary award to Ms. Suu Kyi. Your committee’s position that “the prize winners themselves have to safeguard their own reputation” since it is not the duty of your committee “to oversee or censor what a laureate does after the prize has been won” sounds absurd and hence, not in the best interest of worldly acclaimed Nobel Prize because those deemed fit for the honor should serve as Life Ambassadors of the Nobel institution.

This is, no doubt, an awkward position that will not only reduce years of attached prestige and respect as well as public perception for Nobel Prize. Besides, it will equally offend the spirit of Mr Nobel, whose legacy for instituting the Peace Prize has been betrayed. However, if Ms Suu Kyi back-stages and rises to the challenges of ensuring that all rights and privileges due to the people of Rohingya are restored and fully rehabilitated in their homes, then she should be allowed to retain the prize.

I proffer this alternative because Ms Suu Kyi’s case is a symbolic expression of dilemma of life confronting mortal beings living in a state of Godlessness. This therefore calls for the urgent need for all to come back home to Nigeria, for My Divine Knowledge that cleanses all programmed impurities/negatives within man, now that the Great Light is back to rescue humanity from destroying themselves through avoidable acts of omission and commission arising for uncalled for hatred for one another.

MR PRESIDENT SHOULD CLEAR THE FOGGY AIR SURROUNDING DEFENCE MINISTER, BASHIR MAGASHI

By The Grace of The Grace, I have severally made it clear that my unalloyed support for Mr President, despite his shortcomings, was because of his unique pedigree, which spiritually elevated him above all aspiring contemporary leaders of our time. Hence, Mr President owes Nigerians the patriotic duty of living above board in all times and circumstances in order to not betray the confidence Nigerians reposed on him. It is on this note that I call on Mr President to decisively move fast to clear the foggy air that is physically surrounding the Defence Minister, Bashir Magashi, who has been indicted on security fund stealing and diversion to the tune of $550,000, being part of Abacha’s recovered loots as reported in the Front page of The Guardian, December 30, 2019.

On the scale of moral probity and considering prevailing public outcry against Magashi, it doesn’t augur well for Mr President’s image to keep mum on this issue, barely five months after the corrupt act was made public. In the interest of natural justice, Mr President should suspend Magashi, in order to restore public confidence in his administration. He could be re-instated if found not guilty. The flies currently chasing Bashir Magashi about spiritually, has disqualified him as a member of Mr President’s team.

Wielding an anti-corruption cudgel with convincing promises to Nigerians to deal frontally with the behemoth called corruption, Buhari Presidency became a practical reality because Nigerians were terribly tasty for good governance, despite his perceived short-comings that made him politically unsellable in previous general polls.

Equally instructive is the fact that in his article of faith with Nigerians, tagged “My Covenant with Nigerians,” in which he enunciated in his campaign manifesto Buhari sent forth endearing nationalist messages that raised hope as well as sublimal pride of Nigerians in their fatherland. Then, as the Presidential flag-bearer of APC, Buhari expressed his desired intention to “lead from the front” because “Nigerians are tired of the status quo” and “there is only one Nigeria”.

Bearing in mind Buhari’s post 2015 nationalistic purview, which convinced Nigerians to foresee him as their new born-again hero “coming to judgment” on Project Nigeria, Mr President should eschew any kind of anachronism that tends to becloud his sense of vision for the new Nigeria he promised the electorates, through acts of omission or commission.

Lest we forget, African leaders have unanimously made Mr President Africa’s corruption Czar, hence the saying, to whom much is given, much is expected should apply.

CHANGE OUR NATIONAL CURRENCY THE NAIRA TO GHAI

By The Grace of all Grace, I wish to crave the indulgence of Mr President by informing him of the strategic need to change our national currency the Naira (N) to Ghai (G). This has become necessary in order to align the Naira with its spiritual name and value. In the Secret Archives of Life, which is well known as The Di vine Scrolls from where all the scriptures emanated, Songhai was known as The City of God, whilst the currency was known as Ghai.

This strategic step has become over-due in the light of our experiences since Your Excellency’s vowed commitment to recover all stolen Nigeria’s patrimony that were hidden here and there. Nigerians will not forget in a hurry the mad rush to withdraw Nigeria’s stolen wealth from bank only to be hidden in farms and in individual building, septic tanks, water tanks etc that were ironically converted into warehouses for money storage, septic tanks, water tanks etc, particularly since Your Excellency’s, introduction of the novel whistle-blowing policy. As we speak, billions of Naira are still stashed away in various hide outs by ingenious and hardened crooks that manipulated their way to position of public trust and wantonly ravaged our treasury due to unbridled greed.

Hence, changing the Naira to Ghai has become necessary as a counter-measure against these professional “stealocrats” who should be tracked along with members of the families and relations and those attempting to exchange sums of money beyond a given ceiling, arrested to give account of the source of such large amount. Again in the Nucleus Culture, so much value is attached to a name. It therefore, follows that by physically merging the name of our national currency with its spiritual counterpart will greatly enhance the value of our currency, which spiritually currently stands at the ratio N1:00 : $2:00 and N 1:00 : ∈1:50.

It could, therefore, be seen that the current exchange rate of the Naira is scandalously manipulated by Euro/American forces to economically strangulate the black race, whose natural endowments sustain Western economies, because they are aware of the fact that addressing and balancing out the inherent anomalies in the global economic situation in our favor will spell doom for them.

I am highly optimistic that Mr President possesses the strong will and character to allow sycophants and armchair theorists who are under the spell of Western manipulative intelligence to swallow all kinds of Brentwood scholars’ economic jargons that has no bearing with the reality of our existence, to discourage him from taking the needed steps that will pave way for our rapid economic recovery with enough funds for our roads, refineries and other key projects without traveling abroad with cap in hand to beg anybody for assistance, which will eventually give his regime a formidable position to rank among the best leaders in the new millennium.

To avoid lapses of any kind, money exchange centres, rather than the banks should specifically be created where people can return their old currency notes in exchange for new ones. This will help to check abuses that could hinder achieving the desired goal of tracking down, effectively, those who stole and are hiding their loot outside the conventional financial houses.

Again, either EFCC, ICPC or any other supervisory agency of government, which, in the wisdom of Mr President can perform, should be put in place to ensure effectiveness and compliance on laid down guidelines for the exercise.

Yours In the Service of Almighty Maharaj Ji.

BLACKS SHOULD STOP APING THE WHITES

From all indications, in view of the global comatose state of affairs, it has become crystal clear to all and sundry that the Oyinbos out of greed and hatred and possessive desire to rule the world by all means, has led the world to a blind alley and there is urgent need for all to wake up!

The blacks, in particular, should live their own lives and stop aping the whites. Yes, the information war they used to hold us down for ages has failed woefully. The Oyinbos deceived us and we agreed to do away with our Deities and Oracles; a legacy the Creator bequeathed to His first children at the beginning of Creation to check-balance man’s activities for guaranteed peaceful and harmonious co-existence on earth.

Sadly enough, there is no health in us any longer since we abandoned our own and embraced oyinboman’s monocultural religious doctrines and dogmas of sin and repent and dying to see God for post mortem judgment in the sky. The whole world is shaking today, because of that monumental deceit! Now that Divine Providence has benevolently heard the cries and

supplications of the innocent, sincere, pure-hearted and unpolluted few among us as well as the begging of our Ancestors who are in desperate need to re-incarnate, we are supremely blessed to have in our midst The Great Light sustaining everything in creation. Now is the hour for Nucleus Children to back stage and rediscover their roots as it was in the beginning and stop aping their younger brothers, the Whites who original were blacks, but whose skin got peeled as a result of long domicile in water after the Atlantis deluge that got parts of Africa submerged in water. The era of the Jacob and Esau scriptural hypocritical deceit is over.

Hence, the blacks have to rise and reclaim his birthright as the first children of the Creator that ruled the world, right from the cradle of life on earth. The secret behind their deceptive and false claim to being closer to God, which made them sole producers of finished goods like cars, television, radio, cell phones, computers has been opened by the Creator-In-Person now, in our human kind, with the melanin coat, Satguru Maharaj Ji. He has brought the Creator’s gift of Divine Knowledge, which when received and practiced unravels all known and unknown secrets and mysteries underlying the creation.

If we listen and embrace Maharaj Ji now, Africa will surely rule the world within the next decade. Previously, we believed materially advanced nations are immune to vagaries of nature like hurricane, tornadoes, tsunamis etc. as well as pandemics like coronavirus etc. To escape these karmic reaction, let’s stop aping the Oyinbos and go back to our culture. The people should minimize merriment, eating, dining and partying till we do all we can to make us realize the fecundity of Maharaj Ji to change everything for good and abundant greatness.

Lo and behold, Maharaj Ji presence has proven to all that man is limited and the Creator in His Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent powers own and controls the Universe

BLUE COLOURED VEHICLES SHOULD BE AVOIDED

By The Grace of all Grace, I wish to remind Your Excellency of the need to avoid all blue colored objects. This is because blue color is not part of the Alajobi culture of old, that was there at the beginning. Blue color belongs to the marine world for those of us who sinned and were buried to live under water are being used to destabilize everybody. Hence, it should

not be entertained at all.

Agents of marine powers have great affinity with blue-color. Because of this, they wear blue items like a mask in order to facilitate their coverts acts of destruction across the world. Statistical records shows that majority of mayhem or disasters with very high mortality rate that befell man in terms of accidents etc is more prevalently associated with the color of blue,

which Oyinbos made us to believe is love, whereas it is danger. This explains the reason why when somebody dies the blood turns to blue color. Research has proven beyond reasonable doubt, where there is concentration of blue dressed police, the crime, accident and death rates are higher.

On the other hand, red which has the highest frequency of vibration among other color represents love. This is supported by the fact that the human blood is red. Dignitaries are given red-carpet treatment, while peppers, tomatoes consumed by humans are also red. Your Excellency, the reason for taking you this far is that as Number One Security Officer of the Nigeria’s commercial capital and economic hub of the Black race, that is always bustling with socio-economic activities, issues bordering on securing human lives and properties is paramount, hence there is need to stay clear from acts of commission that will negate our desired objectives to safe-guard lives and properties; which the use of blue color entails.

For instance, it is observed with dismay that most of the BRT buses are bearing blue color. This is very unhealthy for commuters because it enhances the propensity which Marine agents take advantage of to unleash mayhem on road users with dead-accuracy. Remember that it was after Iya Alaro the “marine queen” was arrested that we succeeded in building the Carter

Bridge of old. In the interest of Lagosians, in particular, and Nigerians in general, I am using this medium to implore Your Excellency to passionately look into this seemingly innocuous matter, which have grave implications for human life and properties so as to urgently take steps to redress the issue through executive order directing all blue-colored vehicles to be repainted to any other color of one’s choice.

Due to ignorance of who and what we are, this has been the major cause of the road crashes on our roads that has claimed lots of lives on a daily basis.

I am highly optimistic that Your Excellency will give this matter its much desired attention and take necessary steps to save our race. Eko Oni Baje ooo

REQUEST FOR ACCOUNT STATEMENT OF EX-PUBLIC OFFICE HOLDERS IS A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.

Recent news report that the Federal Government has requested for the account statement of some public officers in ten banks, in order to facilitate on-going EFCC investigation to ascertain individual involvements in the Process and Industrial Developments (NIG) Ltd gas shady deals, is a welcome development in the positive direction. The fact that nothing was put on ground to justify the billions of hard currencies expended on the gas project is suggestive

of the fact that the project was a premeditated scam to swindle the nation by P&ID, its affiliates and Nigeria’s corrupt officials who handled the project.

Hence, the P&ID gas project remains one, among legions of syndicated economic heist to hemorrhage, the nation by heartless neo-colonialist agents who are aiding and abetting the Oyinbos in their covert mission to recolonize the Blacks. In the light of the above, I call on both the ten banks mentioned and the eminent US District Jurist, Lorna Schofield, in the Holy Name of Maharaj Ji, to do everything humanly possible to assist the Federal Government to

recover Nigeria’s patrimony stashed away in bank vaults across Europe and America, because both the spirits of Nigeria and Mother Africa are awake and are watching.

By this token, Nigerian officials/EFCC must be granted access to whatever submission the banks are presenting before the court, such that, for intents and purposes, at the end of the day, it will be clear to all that justice is not only done but seen to be done. I also wish to remind those behind the evil plot of further defrauding Nigeria to the colossal sum of $9.7 billion, which we were told amounts to thirty percent of our foreign reserve, in the guise of judicial debt arising from cost awarded to P&ID for breach of contract against Nigeria, after colluding with Nigerians to rip-off the nation should better have a rethink.

Those involved should thread with utmost caution in the interest of equity, good conscience and sense of fair play, considering the fact that the Divine Forces of Love dictating the affairs of the Universe is using Nigeria as its earth base and hence, stay clear from acts that could destabilize or detract the nation from moving forward. This kind of man’s inhumanity to man is what gave room to COVID-19, as invisible as it is, forced even nations who believed they had power of life and death over less privileged nations, particularly in Africa, to be running up and down grasping for breath today, is unpardonable because it is more or less like an open sore on the face.

Those who are involved in this kind of heinous crime can run and run, but for sure, there is no place for them to hide. They will, surely be exposed at the appropriate time, because I have proclaimed the Kali Yuga Age of ungodliness dead and buried. Hence, we are in a period every mortal being must give a good account of his stewardship to the Creator, right here on earth. The Golden Age of Life has come to stay and it is meant for only those whose hearts are

pure.

However, whatever Goodluck Jonathan is saying is neither here nor there, because the buck stops at his table as President and Commander In-Chief. Even if he is the saint he is claiming to be, he should not forget Nigerians entrusted their faith in his hands for six years, and he stood by watching, while his rouge appointees looted the nation dry. He had better go and hide his face in shame, because he has nothing to offer Nigerians this time around.

We are begging that Mr. President should expand the frontiers of his corruption fight, right from IBB’s chop I chop or die for refusing to chop, satanic reign of terror to Abdulsalam’s ludicrous era. Nigerians, despite his perceived short-comings, will always remember him, if he can deliver on his anti-graft war as parting gift to Nigerians, come 2023.

ATIKU’S SANCTIMONY AND STATE OF OUR NATION

Former Vice President of Nigeria and Ex-Presidential Aspirant of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the 2019 Presidential Election, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, threw caution to the wind and went ahead to inundate our national sensibilities with his sanctimony on the state of the political economy of the nation

In the name of providing credible opposition in our national political space, having lost out during the last presidential polls, Atiku went ahead to condemn in its entirety the latest review of the 2020 budget, which he considers as inconsequential as well as other contingent measures put in place by the Federal Government to address the prevailing economic realities viz-a-viz arising variables, as it affects our national economy due to Coronavirus pandemic. Wearing the deceptive garbs of a first-grade economist, Atiku pontificated on, what is in his mind, is the best way forward to move the economy and nation forward. In his economic bail out postulations, Atiku Abubakar hypocritically linked the scraping of the budgetary allocation for renovating of the National Assembly with the sale of already purchased Presidential jets, which betrays his insincerity as a man of double standard.

He should accept the verdict of Nigerians duly expressed in 2019 poll and allow Mr President

to steer the ship of the State without uncalled for distractions. Why pick on the Presidential air fleet? Unfortunately, Atiku was silent on trillions of Nigeria’s patrimony that was stolen from our national till by public office holders during his regime as Vice President of the nation. A full recovery of the loot siphoned into foreign banks by political “stealocrats” is more than enough to address the short fall in the 2020 budget. Hence, Atiku and his co-horts should move fast and return their loot before nemesis catches up with them.

Lest we forget, Atiku abdicated his constitutional responsibility as Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria in the area of fixing the economy, which fell within the purview of his office as Vice President under OBJ. Rather than address the issue, he busied himself amassing wealth and scheming on how to become President giving rise to constant flexing of muscle between him and his principal, till the expiration of the administration.

On a sad note, the need never occurred to Atiku on how all his co-practitioners of political stealocrats should return Nigeria’s patrimony he looted and stashed away in foreign banks to assist in our economic recovery process. All the money Atiku languished in his forlorn hope to rule Nigeria during the Presidential Polls against My advice would have gone a long way to assist the economy to recover if he has listened to Me. That colossal waste during 2019 campaign would have been enough to give constant portable water supply to each of the 774 LGA’s in Nigeria.

We have had enough of Atiku’s insults and he should go and hide himself. In enlightened climes, people like Atiku suffer news blackout because, he has nothing to offer.

OSUN MONARCH AND INCESTOUS DEFILEMENT OF MINOR

The Punch, Friday, May 15, 2020, on Page 15 published a story under the caption: “Osun Monarch, two others arraigned for defiling minor.”

The story goes that “David Ogungbemi 62, was on Thursday arraigned alongside his son, Idowu and one Sarafa Olayiwola before an Oshogbo Magistrate Court for allegedly defiling a 14-year-old.” The story went further to allege that both father and son conspired with the 3rd accused person to rape and sexually exploit their victim who was living under their roof, to the point of getting her pregnant.

This disgraceful news of royal incest and child abuse is a taboo in Yorubaland, because as Nucleus race, our rich culture and tradition is second to none, the world over. The confused Aketewi of Iketewi, Oba David Ogungbemi has desecrated the Iketewi Stool and should be shown the way out without delay, to save the people of Iketewi from the wrath of their Ancestors.

I think by still bearing the slave name of David as Oba, which from the word go, disqualified him from inheriting the highly revered Obaship Stool in Yorubaland, suggests he will make a better pastor of the beaten religious path, to serve the God of the dead, where anything goes. Because, there, he can freely indulge himself in hedonism; like incest, homosexuality etc and nobody cares and even God Himself “no go vex,” because, he was born to sin and repent.

This is not the case in Yoruba culture. In Yoruba, an Oba is entitled to have as many wives as he wishes, so long as he can take care of all of them. Why then consciously forcefully share the carnal knowledge of a teenage girl with his son at the same time? He needs to undergo psychiatric test to ascertain his state of mental health!

Hence, I call on the Iketewi Stool King makers to take urgent steps to replace this sick Oba that has brought shame and dragged not only the people of Iketewi, but the entire Yoruba race, to disrepute and public opprobrium. Also, the presiding Magistrate in this case should not grant bail to any of the accused in this case and each, should on conviction be given a minimum of 25 years jail term each without option of fine. Failure to heed this warning, is an indirect invitation of Coronavirus in Iketewi land and this certainly will not be in the best interest of Iketewi Kingdom.

INFLUX OF ALMAJIRI FROM NORTH DOWN TO SOUTH.

The spate of increasing Southwards movement of beggars, or people who cannot provide for themselves and thus roam the streets in Northern Nigeria’s towns and cities, otherwise known as almajiris, is worrisome and therefore raises real concerns in some quarters down South. Some interest groups in the South, ranging from concerned individuals, traditional rulers, ethnic pressure groups and even state governments are frowning at the surreptitious packaging of human cargoes, made up of disheveled youngs and young-at-heart with no properly defined mission or destination point down to the Southern States.

There is no doubt that the concerns and objections raised by the concerned groups on these latest spurious moves from the North can be justified on some grounds. First, is the health concern; this concern is real, taking into cognizance the global bedlam raised by Coronavirus pandemic that resulted in lockdown of cities and nations across the world, in which Nigeria is not an exception. As a matter of fact, the Federal Government and even State Governments have ordered the closure of our national and state borders against interstate, and even in some cases, intra state movements, with a view to safe-guarding the citizens from COVID-19 and check its spread.

Against this backdrop, how then are these young lads, who are not sure of how to get a square meal a day, not to talk of paying for their transport fare be able to transit down South from far places like Sokoto, Katsina etc undictated? Is the assumption right that some faceless individuals or group, yet to be identified, are behind the almajiris invasion down South, such that our security operatives can’t detect and stop this act of brazen lawlessness? Is our security men compromised to allow these hazardous and illegal movements sail through? Second, is the security concern, in the light of our experiences where herdsmen from the North are ravaging people’s farmland and killing the farmers for raising issues over such dastardly acts, equally raise pertinent questions as follows.

Could it be, these young lads are potential herdsmen foot soldiers? If not, what then is the mission of these kids in the South that naturally harbor zero-tolerance for beggars and begging? In the light of the above, there is justifiable ground to send these potentially health and security risk-prone children back to their home states with immediate effect. It is said that what is good for the goose is equally good for the gander. If the Northern State Governments

are rejecting these children, and are currently sending them packing to their states of origin, why not the Southerners? This is the time for Northern leaders to put on their thinking cap in order to save their face and come out with a holistic solution to the social aberration called almajiris, which they created and sustained to maintain their hegemony over the Northern talakawas, having dominated Nigeria’s political leadership space for 44 out of 60 years of

Nigeria’s political independence, only to give us almajiris all over the place, at the end of the day.

Also, the hour has come for the Northern Oligarchy class to pay for their leadership failures to the people. So they should face it head long or be ready for the consequences of their years of misrule.
