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!!!
