No Nigerian ruler has ever made such a terrible mess of the whole essence of the amalgamation and the subsequent federation of the Lower and Upper Niger and the entire Nigerian polity as Muhammadu Buhari has done.

But why are fellow Nigerians whingeing and moaning over the presence of the two Nigerien Governors at the recent APC rally in Kano as if this was the first time that in the history of Nigeria such an ugliness had reared its head?

From the reconducted population census of 1963; all elections; crises in Nigeria; fielding people into elective offices/positions in Nigeria, we have always had aliens from Niger, Chad and Northern Cameroon meddling in the affairs of the sovereign State of Nigeria, including more of these aliens in the so-called Nigerian civil service, the military, the police, in the para-military, in all public offices and institutions and anywhere as far as the readers’ imagination can go, whose only qualifications for such offices in independent Nigeria are not by citizenship, but that such aliens are relatives of some idiot Nigerians, who even though separated by the Amalgamation testament/principles by the geographical boundaries, the likes of Muhammadu Buhari, his ilk up North and other Fulbes, Hausas, Kanuris and the Arab invaders have continued to still see these elements – their brethren on the other side of the borders as Nigerians, whilst regarding the political and geographical boundaries as merely artificial.

PART 9

BUHARISM & THE FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW

…between a nation’s two most objectionable alternatives – Judas of Daura and Barabbas of Adamawa

LET MY PEOPLE FAST AND PRAY VERY FERVENTLY

It must here be stressed once more as I have always done when discussing this subject matter and other such nonsense as cultural imperialism and linguistic impositionism being spear-headed by that non-war General Tukur Buratai that under the Lugardian Covenant of 1914, only the political, and not the cultural, was amalgamated. So, all the cultural impostors and Arabists in our midst must let the sleeping dog lie, and peacefully lie.

A Short Play

Act 1 Scene 1

Setting: Abuju, the Federal Capital Territory of Wayo Republic in the Inner Interview Studio of Scorpion News Corporation.

Scorpion News Corp is a highly respected media outfit, extremely radical, very uncompromising and remains the greatest defender of the truth and the nation.

Also, the news outfit is very well known throughout the Federal Republic of Wayo (FRW) for its non-partisanship, impartiality, hence it had been given a fond name NON-ALIGN by its numerous and teeming viewers.

The President of the Wayo Republic who had been accused of avoiding interviews finally bowed to pressures to honour the invite from the media house, popularly and fondly referred to by the people of the Wayo Land as NON-ALIGNERS.

I said I’m not a Middle Belter;

So, I did nothing.
