REF: SGMJJ/HSCU/PR/3380 16th Oct, 2014 Nigeria And Its Ongoing Revolution Nigeria’s post-military political house is clearly a theatre of intriguing civilian intensities. Democracy in this multi-ethnic country has provided and is still providing vent to long-suppressed grievances, some of which have inspired the plotting of new political scripts. A new balance of political power has emerged from the de-militarization of political Nigeria. Expectedly, this development has not gone down well with many longstanding power-brokers. Beneficiaries of this intriguing change, all caught in a whole new life of fat-cash government patronage, relish the sweetness of near absolute power as they feast on the same moral menu that ran the stomachs of their gluttonous predecessors to sudden death on the free-meal table of extremist corruption. Boko Haram’s guerrilla violence since the election of Goodluck Jonathan as President of Nigeria follows a series of ethnic rampage that blew intensely across its Southern section. When Odua People’s Congress (OPC) was created and subsequently took to asserting its principles and positions on matters political, the group’s propelling logic was the imperative of putting a permanent end to the political marginalization and economic degradation of the Yoruba ethnic block. In South-Eastern Nigeria, MASSOB echoed arguments and sentiments that once provoked late Odumegwu Ojukwu to declare the creation of the State of Biafra which ultimately led Nigeria to a three-year-long civil war! The Igbos of South-Eastern Nigeria, like the Yorubas of the South-West, hinged their post-military outrage on sustained political isolation and protracted economic emasculation of their Nigerian presence. The people of South-Southern Nigeria did not fail to put-up their own campaign of outrage. The arguments and images they employed to justify their vehemence caught high international attention and added significantly to the global economic turmoil of the time. The South-South otherwise known as the Niger-Delta, an oil-rich region, put forward a very loud and compelling case of inhuman economic exploitation, genocidal ecological degradation and humiliating political relegation! Today, we have Boko Haram, a Northern gang of armed fighters, shooting, killing and maiming innocent citizens across Northern Nigeria in the name of salvaging Islam from Western influence. They demand an end to Western education in Nigeria’s Northern landscape! Success is defined by some thinkers as victory in any context of struggle. We have a common context of post-military struggle in Nigeria’s South. While Southern militia voices speak against economic and political lopsidedness, their Northern counterparts argue for the establishment of puritan Islam in their part of Nigeria and seemingly in the entire country. The illiteracy and destitution in Nigeria is highest among Northern masses. A hungry man’s natural priority is food, not religion. As such, Boko Haram’s overt emphasis on purifying Islamic culture as a survival imperative for Northern Nigeria does not come across as a consensus position among the predominantly hungry and destitute masses of Northern Nigerian Muslims. So who and what actually has Boko Haram been fighting for? After Chief MKO Abiola’s death in Abuja in the presence of General Abdulsalam (rtd) and a ring of American agents which included notorious Thomas Pickering, his Ikeja house became a public hub of activities where sympathisers gathered to praise his soul, finding time in the midst of the cascades of eulogy and sorrow to beat-up elite Yoruba political traitors of Yoruba political rights and aspirations. The published picture of a wailing and half-naked prominent Yoruba military apologist who was attacked by an angry mob of students on late Abiola’s premises on allegation of betraying Yoruba interests told a lot about the mood of the South-West political public in relation to the prevailing balance of political power in the country! South-East’s Ohaneze managed to survive heated internal tumults spawned by accusations of treachery and self-aggrandizement levelled against the voices that led the group during the Abacha years. The skilled birth of a new leadership for the group amid the ensuing chaos saved it from dis-integration and extinction. In the Niger-Delta, fear kept many traditional rulers away from their usual business of extracting cash from opportunistic Western oil companies for self-enrichment. The youths of the region were angry and attendantly decisively against betrayers of their humanist cause of demanding an end to the destruction of their environment and lives. When Boko Haram commenced its guerrilla campaign of violence in Northern Nigeria after Goodluck Jonathan’s 2011 electoral victory, Northern leaders had already threatened to make Nigeria ungovernable. They went conspicuously silent in the face of the group’s devil art of wanton slaughter in the country’s North! Shekarau and his fellow killers bombed communities in rural and urban locations right under the nose of powerful Sultan of Sokoto whose voice is law to his millions of Northern Nigerian subjects. Shekarau was neither cautioned nor confronted by the Sultan and his retired military messengers like General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) and General Ibrahim Babangida (rtd). We recently read in the papers about Buhari’s narrow escape of Boko Haram’s explosions. We have witnessed the burial of a prominent Emir killed by Boko Haram’s imported arsenal. Sequel to the Emir’s cold-blooded murder, we heard the Sultan pleading Boko Haram to stop target Muslims! Though Nigeria is for now a backward society, the country is not so held up in the dark that it lacks citizens that are capable of distinguishing between a chameleon and a monkey! A conniving Sultan is a powerful religious and political head who keeps quiet when the barbarity he supports runs its satanic course! Furthermore, a pleading Sultan is a desperate Islamic head who has either lost or is losing authority and control over his special forces of zombies, vipers and hyenas! We are witnessing unfolding acts of unprecedented changes in political Nigeria which the deep-thoughted alone are capable of identifying as revolutionary occurrences! Arguably for the first time in the criminal history of foreign religions in Africa, we witnessed intense street-protests against the appointment of an Emir by his Muslim subjects! Lamido Sanusi is alleged to have purchased the stool for a very huge sum of money. Mass riot as welcome-party for a new Emir is symptomatic of very serious infection of a feudal body of lies, robbery and tyranny. The consequent decay of the entire system is bound to result in the gradual death of its enabling cells. Members of the intellectual cell of Northern Nigeria’s presently desperate Sultanate led by such species as Professor Ango Abdullahi are clearly as confused as constituents of its political cell headed by incurables like Junaid Mohammed in the face of an increasingly ‘sovereign’ Boko Haram! How and why Boko Haram decided to go independent against Northern leaders is a mystery to many. To well-informed and deeply knowledgeable Nigerians, Boko Haram’s sudden thirst for ‘Northern blue-blood’ is an expected outcome of innate feudalist foolishness manifest as group mis-calculation of Nigeria’s post-military cosmos. “Blood Oil” titles a movie produced by British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) which some Nigerians correctly identified as a tactical exercise in public relations aimed at exonerating the British government and its liable institutional agents such as Shell from the colossal mess in the Niger-Delta. The movie heaped the blame of the scandalous Niger-Delta situation on the Government of Nigeria in scenes of derogatory portrayals! Set in the social ambience of 1970s Nigeria, the British story expectedly avoided the hard facts of Britain’s criminal operations in oil-rich Niger-Delta and the enabling neo-colonial political order established and maintained across Nigeria by kleptomaniac Buckingham Palace. Late Isaac Adaka Boro led the first revolution in Nigeria whose theatre of action was the Niger-Delta. His arguments focused on the paradox of poverty amid plenty in the region. Late Odemegwu Ojukwu resented the mistreatment of Igbos and thought it best to have a sovereign State for his kinsmen. His resistance against Northern controlled Nigeria cost over a million Igbo lives! Late Adegoke Adelabu was Islamized off his destiny of leading Nigeria and was ultimately assassinated by ‘unknown’ elements. Late Chief Obafemi Awolowo died a man kept away from fulfilling his political dream of leading Nigeria by superior forces. Late Aminu Kano was a pious leader who went down six-feet deep with his load of personal piety, leaving behind a weak flock that was quick to join the materialist mob of Northern Nigeria led by the proxy imperial landlord of Sokoto! In all these unprogressive Nigerian occurrences and more, British fingers were covertly active! Britain is evidently a leading force in the silent and increasingly sophisticated Aryan war against black civilization! Nigeria within the context of global white power dominance is a super-high-potential collective of black people that must be permanent kept away from self-realization and from evolving the capacity to achieve its great destiny! Nigeria is well-known to Western and Arab imperialist powers to be the natural trigger for shooting black people back to the top of the global hierarchy of power. A conscious, courageous, organized and self-determining Nigeria is bound to inspire other African countries out of colonial subservience and ultimately reverse the free-flows of Africa’s stupendous wealth out to Europe, America, Asia and the Arab world! Trans-generationally destitute Northern Nigerian masses are victims of the Sultan of Sokoto and his subordinate gangs of Northern feudal elites ‘contracted’ by parasitic Britain to stagnate Nigeria! The killing machine known as Boko Haram has served its makers. This jalopy invention of elite members of Northern Nigeria’s political class outraged by what they consider to be mega Southern insolence to Northern political hubris, now has its guns trained at its retreating funders! How interesting! The British, like their European and American relatives, are mutative masters of con and sleaze who initiated and organized the cheap and troublesome 1914 colonial marriage that produced a Nigeria that responds only to feudal Northern authority as desired and programmed by Buckingham Palace! Northern political elites naturally grew accustomed to feasting on a national cake baked on a ‘colonial stove’ structured and stationed in the Niger-Delta by Britain for British (and overall Western) economic convenience in so-called independent Nigeria. In 1999, the journey of that stove to the trash-heap of history commenced with the North’s decision (under pressure from the South-West) to place Chief Olusegun Obasanjo in Aso Rock for a short while. In the course of his eight-year tenure as President, Obasanjo vividly proved himself to be spiritually, mentally and morally distant from the idea of serving feudal whims and caprices. In 2007, he facilitated the emergence of chain-smoking Umaru Yar’Adua as President of Nigeria. A few years after being sworn in, Yar’Adua passed on and the outcome of his painful death was the rise of Goodluck Jonathan from the ghetto-creeks of the Niger-Delta, a region that was forbidden from leading Nigeria and enjoying the socio-economic comfort of its oil wealth in the British neo-colonial manual handed over to Northern political leaders.
