All Hail The Peoples' General!

Yes, the D-Day is coming. The historic day for which thousands have waited for; the 29th Day of May, 2015.

A contributor in one of the leading national dailies termed tomorrow, "Buhari's Day". Of course it sounds like that to the ears of those of us who are waiting in deep and serious expectation of the "Nigerian Political Messiah".

The topic of this short piece was coined from one of the prominent names which Gen... Ehhhm, - I guess it stops today- Buhari was called during the electioneering campaigns. I was sad he's not gonna keep the name! Whatever happens, he is The Peoples' General!

Many Nigerians are patiently waiting for tomorrow to come. A day on which they'll be liberated from every form of trouble, pains, difficulties and life threatening situations. Buhari is the key, Buhari is the Answer!

Hurray, at last the Boko Haram menace, the theft and kidnappings, the frequent clash between the Fulani herdsmen and the 'agricolae' shall be a things of the past; that is  top notch Security!

Further, our moribund and comatose economy would come alive and out do those of the first world! The Naira equalling the dollar in value and our being the largest economy in Africa translating into food for us, food on our tables!

Oh! Education will be free, our school children will receive free lunch, The youth corpers who were unable to find jobs after serving will be paid for one year, our universities will return to being the citadel of learning and it will be needless engaging in 'Academic Tourism'...Ghana must be sad, there'll be a reduced influx of students from Nigeria by Tomorrow!

The era of conservatism in the management of the resources of the state is over! Nigeria will strangulate corruption! Fare thee well oh corruption! The General has come!!!
All those who stole our money under any guise at all will be brought to book, the cost of governance reduced and NNPC unbundled! Waow!!! The cabals of the power sector and the oil sector, your field days are over! Nigeria is free at last!!!

I have litanies of expectations just like every Nigerian. In the coming days, they'll unfold.

The triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem and Jesus' subsequent crucifixion shows on strong terms the nature of man. The same mouth that was used to praise, was also used to vilify. It is simple, Mr. Buhari, get ready for the pot with which you and your party APC used to cook for others, will be used to cook for you and the party. The recent blame game and downplaying of expectations will not, can never and shall not save you; get to work!!!

All Hail The Peoples' General!!!

Nigeria, A Country On Auto Pilot

I woke up yesterday, as any other living being and set out on my journey towards the search of life.

My journey led me to certain places and certain people. This is not as much concern to me as to the journey back home.

Due to some constraints, I had to start coming back later than I budgeted. And that was if I should say, suicidal!

The transport fares tripled! There was siege on the few filling stations, and black markets. A litre of fuel in the filling stations was N180 and black market was N200 and above.

You could imagine how it was Meeting such situation, unprepared. You just have no option, you either hop in and quietly gnash your teeth, or you stay put where you stood, stranded under the cold and with the night coming.

I hopped in, kept my peace and listened to the agony of the common man. There was no hope - even at the thought of the change of government. What I saw was sheer hopelessness, the feeling of a country without a leader, just like a plane in auto pilot mode.

The epileptic power supply in the country many ran away from by making use of 'I pass my neighbour' - generator...., but lo, even getting the fuel for this generator is almost impossible.

As I was about making my conclusion, texts from MTN and Airtel came in. They may not sustain their base stations nationwide if there are no fuel! It came like a shock! What else?, I asked myself- absolutely nothing!

Respite in form of a press release by the CEO of Capital Oil and Gas, Chief Ifeanyi Uba, came, but I doubt it'll go a long way, moreover, that is, if he succeeds in that quest.

I really do not know how to conclude.... I can only repose my hope in God. He only can save this country from Chaos, anarchy and doom.

Save Us O Lord!!!
