The Central Issue: Nigeria is at War!

The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has declared full-scale war against Nigeria, to punish Nigerians for not returning them to power in Nigeria.  From the shapes of things brewing in the PDP camp, Ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, the ceremonial leader of PDP ran to Ivory Coast.  After 16 years of wantonly embezzling government funds, PDP chieftains and their affiliates controls most of the means of production in Nigeria.  To spite Nigeria, PDP is wreaking havoc on Nigeria’s economy, but disingenuously blaming the weak economy on President Buhari’s government.  For example, the price of crude oil fell from $100 a barrel to $33 a barrel; however, the PDP chieftains and their affiliates which control the petroleum outlet raised the price of petrol from N78 to N140.

Dr. Ayodele Fayose openly called for mayhem against President Buhari and his government from the Fajuyi Square, Ado-Ekiti.  The militant wing of the Ijaw people (calls itself different colorful names to camouflage its identity as Ijaw people) have embarked on crippling the petroleum industry in Nigeria.  For the eight years that Mr. Goodluck Jonathan, an Ijaw man, was in the presidency of Nigeria, the Ijaw people did not revolt; however, when Mr. Jonathan lost the presidential election, the Ijaw people are on a rampage.  Then, there is a group of Igbo PDP, who claim to be indigenous natives of an imaginary kingdom called Biafra.  True Igbo people are industrious and hard-working individuals who are proud to be Igbos.  The so called Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) are mere clowns who have denied their noble heritage for political gains.  The Supreme Court of Nigeria is bent on arbitrarily and capriciously justifying PDP, regardless of the circumstances.

On the long-run, PDP will lose the war because crippling the well-being of the people of Nigeria is not a good way to save face.  Moreover, it is atrocious for PDP chieftains and their affiliates to nest billions of naira of public funds for their personal use in foreign countries.  PDP should be angry with itself for degenerating to a party of thieves; the party should not become upset because it was kicked out for stealing.  PDP should stop the war on Nigerians and drop the pretense that it is opposing President Buhari and his government.
