Obasanjo, Babangida
 
Lagos lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana, on Monday blamed the current woes confronting the country on two former heads of state Generals Olusegun Obasanjo and Ibrahim Babangida.
 
Falana critisised the two former leaders in a statement on Monday following a joint statement by the duo stating that there was “poverty, fear and uncertainty” in the country.
 
Obasanjo and Babangida had, in their statement on Sunday, warned that the consequences of the current state of the country were capable of affecting national unity. They added that the loss of innocent lives being experienced across the country was no longer bearable.
 
However, Falana accused the former heads of state of misrule, failing to harness the nation’s resources, a development which he said, led to the current condition of the country.
 
He said, “For about 20 years both of them misruled and wasted the rare oppotunity to harness our abundant resources to make Nigeria one of the leading nations in the world, hence, ence the current state of poverty, fear and uncertainty.”
 
He described as an arrogant posture, the failure of both of them to apologise to Nigerians in their statement for the havoc their regimes had caused the country.
 
The human rights lawyer said Nigeria had witnessed ethno-religious clashes which claimed many lives and destruction of property under their regimes.

BUT PLACED BETWEEN TWO DEVILS, OBASANJO IS AND STILL REMAIN BETTER THAN BABANGIDA WHO NOT ONLY ANNULED JUNE 12 BEST ELECTION NIGERIA HAD, HE DID NOT PROVIDE OR IMPROVE THE NIGERIA'S ESTABLISHMENTS FOR NIGERIANS.

OBASANJO PRIVATIZED NITEL: TELECOMMUNICATIONS. TODAY WE ALL HAVE HANDSETS AND INTERNETS WHICH NO NORTHERN LEADER WOULD HAVE ALLOWED NIGERIANS TO GAIN ACCESS TO AS THEY DID WITH NORMAL HOUSE TELEPHONES WHICH ELUDED NIGERIANS TILL TODAY.

IF GEJ PRIVATIZE ELECTRICITY TODAY, THAT MAY NAIL FOREVER THE ENERGY MORIBUND OF NIGERIAN AND HELP TO CREATE JOBS FAST BY ENABLING FOREIGN-BASED and RICH NIGERIANS TO ENGAGE IN SMALL AND MEDIUM SCALE INDUSTRIES. etc. etc. ONLY THE SOUTHERN LEADERS CAN DO THIS. FORGET NORTH. THEY HAVE DESTROYED NIGERIA. TRUTH IS BITTER!!!

We have now MTN, GLO, ETISALAT, etc. to choose from. Which sector had any Northern leader provided for Nigeria?
They killed Post Office
They killed house Telephone through NITEL as it is in every part of the world.
They killed Dele Giwa, Ken Saro Wiwa, etc.
They killed Railway Corporation which ease beautiful transports and reduces accidents in other parts of the world.
They allowed expressways to decay, degenerate and immotorable, especially in the South, for example, Lagos to Benin to East and South of Nigeria.
They allowed the Police to be corrupt, and it continued that it is difficult to stop today.
They allowed Boko Haram
They created Sharia Law in 11 States of the North against the Constitution of Federal of Nigeria. Etc. etc. etc.
They killed Universal Primary Education (UPE). Obasanjo resuscitated it again. OMG!

FOR HOW LONG DO WE CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THESE PEOPLE??? LET THEM GO!!!

They killed igbos
They make Ojukwu run away with his tail between his legs.
They later pardon the criminal and let him live in Nigeria.
They let igbos build their own child's producing factories now functioning everywhere in the east.
They bought guns and gave them to igbos so that they will become armed robbers.
They opened Okija shrine at which igbonnana was a butcher
They gave chance for the wicked igbos to slaughter one another on land disputes and boarder issues
They forced igbos to be eating one another
They are responsible for igbos to have the highest number of prostitutes in the whole Africa
They necessitate igbos to engage in drug trafficking

MY KEYBOARD IS TIRED. I will be back after the break.

TRUTH IS BITTER
