#SoundOff: Going Down Memory Lane On Boko Haram Under GEJ

Must read

by Portia Emilia Anthony

I still cannot forget Muhammadu Buhari’s in-law the erstwhile governor of Adamawa, Murtala Nyako who came out openly and unashamedly to bash and accused Jonathan of sponsoring “the genocide against the North”. He actually called what Boko Haram their misguided brothers were doing to his people genocide.

He went on to blame Jonathan for using Nigerian soldiers to kill the “Northerners” (Northerners being code for Boko Haram). Then Governor Nyako accuses President Jonathan of genocide in the North on April 19, 2014.

My question: Who is perpetuating this genocide to the same North today? Jonathan left office almost six months ago but the spate of killings in the North continues and even more now, under President Buhari. Just a few days ago, the federal capital was bombed, scores of people died… The only difference is the conspiracy of silence among the community that screamed blue murder under Jonathan.

The last administration’s mantra was mainly security because that was the greatest issue facing the nation then and that administration did its best to wipe out the menace without much ado nor noise.

The vuvuzelas in All Progressives Congress, the misguided followers were quick at quoting the part of the Constitution and threw it all about on blogosphere like there was no tomorrow and tomorrow has come and they have all developed premature senility. In a bid for me trying to remind them and making sense of all these the people are still thinking they can bash me.

These people went to town and played on the security issues and used the propaganda surrounding it to win elections. They promised to bring the Chibok girls back immediately, to wipe boko haram out immediately because as the flocks listen to their master PMB almost said and they believed him.

A man quite elderly called Kaita then would come and promise that the menace of their misguided brothers would be wiped out within thirty days but where is this elder today? The snipper has picked him out and cut off his tongue? I am just thinking.

But let me even ask this…… is there any Nigerian alive that still believes PMB an Islamic fundamentalist, that makes no bones about that fact, a bigot to the core that openly came out to disparage GEJ and said he was killing his misguided brothers and actually aligned the plight of the boko haram boys to that of the Niger Deltan militants, does anyone still believes PMB has the political, human will to kill his brothers?

If you still believe so then please, give me the cheap drugs that you are on, because your mumu button is on alert waiting for who would press it. I need that drugs to be able to think like you because right now my brain is thinking right and otherwise. I know PMB can’t do jack to curtail boko haram, he knows them and they are not listening to him as he thought then. He was lying when he said he would wipe them out in 30 days. I knew he was lying through his teeth, but you that were and still on that cheap drugs refused to listen but rather joined the bandwagon to propagate the endless lies.

The #ChiefNoisemaker, the new petroleum minister that could not become the power sector minister as that sector is really the sick baby of Nigeria, he could not become the minister of Agriculture a sector that is poised to take over from the oil and gas sector, how about being the minister of education oh! that is a no go area after all what is his business with education?

When he transferred the force headquarters to Bornu I was like damn this man is going to be the Chief of army staff but what do I know sef?

When I said this was about the number one revenue earner of the country, this was all about oil I remember saying this over and over again until it became platitude, the same people calling me today to calm down but refused to cut their blackmail then, these folks were calling me over-sabi, once again I have proved myself and I have rightly earned that aphorism….Yes, I be “over-sabi” personified. Now, get it and forever hold your peace if you would ever have any.

#ChiefNoisemaker, give us the contents of the brown envelope with Senator Saraki.

Wipe out boko haram because some of those who suffered to vote you in are being also killed by your brothers through this “GENOCIDE” you are causing. Bring back the Chibok girls, straighten out the policies that would help the economy grow out of this recession. Stop sleeping on duty.
