The worst illiterate is the political illiterate. He hears nothing and sees nothing, takes no part in political life. He doesn't seem to know that the cost of living, the price of beans, of flour, of rent, of medicines all depends on political decisions.
He even prides himself on his political ignorance, sticks out his chest and says he hates politics. He doesn't know, that from his political non-participation comes the prostitute, the abandoned child, the robber and , worst of all, corrupt officials the lackeys of exploitative multinational corporation",BERTOLT BRECHT.
A few hours to New Year Day, 1st January 2017, we stumbled on a short video where some of our past and present rulers sang us a song, it added some spice to the yuletide festivities, but left us curious, it opened up the underbelly of the Gamblers and the game they play.
Rather than apologize for the years of locust superintended by them, they sang us a song. Because most of us do not care about our nation, the song made some sense. But we asked? Do we need OBJ, Gen Gowon, Mr Shonekan etal to sing Nigeria song? After bungling divinely served opportunities to make Nigeria great? Do we need a song? why are we always taken by the Game these Gamers and gamblers play? WHY?
Gen Gowon had the opportunity to effectively heal the wounds of the Civil war, but got words and more words instead. Under OBJ's 2nd coming, over 32billion dollars was spent on power, yet we could not generate 4,000 m/watts of power with the same amount that gave China 32,000 m/watts of power.
Funds budgeted for power was stolen and looted by the Gamblers and their proteges, and , remorselessly they sing us a song.
We MUST put an end to this game by interrogating leadership and asking strong questions???
RPI.......Rethink, Rebirth, Rebuild.
