NIGERIAN SENATE WITH THOSE MINISTERS DESERVED THE SACK!

Cabinet reshuffle is an age-long practice of governance and there is nothing novel about it! 

Presidents or Heads of State have the prerogative to wield their big stick of “hire and fire” to improve service delivery and therefore neither deserved the unusual hullabaloo nor the accolades that greeted President Buhari’s sack of only TWO ministers?

If he had begun the process of REFERENDUM to SHUT the SENATE and to decentralize the lopsided political structure which favours the Federal Government against federating States and DEVOLVE POWER to them according to all popular demands, he would have laid the requisite foundation for bequeathing an enviable LEGACY for posterity and Nigerians would have given him a very loud and standing ovation!  

The sack of two cabinet ministers of the APC Government should be likened to the treatment of skin rashes instead of rooting out the leprous disease which had eaten deep into the body polity of a nation under the watch of some strange leaders who revel in feudalism, oligarchy, tribalism and nepotism with great relish! 

The man who swore in his 2015 campaign promises to destroy Boko Haram terrorists, crush the cankerworm of CORRUPTION and improve on the weak economy came on board and muddled up the entire government machinery as a confused person who found himself in the presidential seat by accident!

According to official sources which emanated on 1st September, 2021, the two Ministers of Power, Sale Mamman and Agriculture, Sabo Nanono, were relieved of their posts sequel to the “tradition of subjecting our projects and programs implementation to independent and critical self-review” through sectors reporting during Cabinet meetings and Retreats that helped to identify “weak areas, close gaps, build cohesion, and synergy in governance, manage the economy and improve the delivery of public good to Nigerians”; and found “culpable” if We may ask?

Interestingly the President who promised to emphasise the 9 priority areas of governments for the second term failed to deal decisively with INSECURITY WHICH HAS RUBBISHED ALL HIS ACCLAIMED ACHIEVEMENTS IN SIX YEARS OF GOVERNANCE!   

Till date, “Out of School Children” WHO HAVE NOW INCREASED TO 13 MILLION are still roaming Nigerian streets; while all 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs), of the country are swarming with bandits, gunmen, kidnappers etc, and no one now including them (the politicians/security agents), can claim to be safe anymore!

QUESTIONS: 

Why would the President employ incompetent personnel at all? Answer: Because he practises NEPOTISM! Sabo Nanono (75), was an old crony way back and Sale Mamman, (63), also, his “AREA person!”

If the doctrine of “Federal Character” was strictly observed, every State would produce cerebrals who can stand the test of time in any clime; then why sideline competency for mediocrity? Answer: Maybe because they were nominated by the CABAL whose wishes must be obeyed?

DID PRESIDENT BUHARI STUDY JONATHAN’S HAND-OVER NOTES?

We have kept wondering whether he read ex-President’s Ebele Jonathan’s Hand-over Notes of 2015 and took judicious notice of the portion which lamented over the infiltration of the extremist “Boko Haram Sympathisers” in his cabinet!

While attending the Armed Forces Remembrance Day Church Service in Abuja in the year 2012, Mr Jonathan said and We quote, “....some of them are in the executive arm of government, some of them are in the parliamentary/legislative arm of government, while some of them are even in the judiciary, .... some are also in the armed forces, the police and other security agencies”; adding that the situation was “even worse than the civil war we fought”!

The ex-President also said, “During the civil war, we knew and we could even predict where the enemy was coming from .... but the challenge we have today is more complicated!”

“Somebody said that the situation was so bad that even if one’s son was a member, one would not even know. That means that if the person will plant a bomb behind your house, you won’t know”, Mr Jonathan lamented! 

In January 2012, he declared State of Emergency in Yobe and Borno,(North East), Plateau and Niger States, (North Central), while Adamawa was placed under curfew following a surge in ethnic and sectarian violence!

IN 2021 GRAPEVINE SAYS BOKO HARAM NOW HAVE SPONSORS IN BUHARI’S GOVERNMENT - TRUE OF FALSE? TRUE!

Otherwise, the President would not be escalating the current bloodshed being perpetrated by armed Fulani herdsmen on the entire 200million citizens of Nigeria by insisting on tracing the out-dated CATTLE OPEN GRAZING ROUTES Gazette of 1965 (a first Republic Grazing Reserve Law, specifically addressed to open grazing activities, rights and land titles to Fulani Pastoralists in Northern Nigeria and passed by the Legislative Assembly), and for setting up a Committee chaired by his Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Gambari, having earlier settled for CATTLE RANCHING AS THE BEST OPTION?

The CoS and his committee wasted no time in identifying “368 (non-existent), grazing routes across 25 States of Nigeria” which the Federal Government intended to “REVIEW” in spite of massive oppositions from the citizens! 

We believe that it was a mission in futility which recommendations would end up in the trash bins in spite of the fact that public funds had been illegally dispensed for the exercise in futility!   

It is inconceivable that a Fulani President would play a divisive role in a diversified country as Nigeria by insisting that the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, Constitution (as amended), which guarantees freedom of movement and ownership of immovable properties in any part of the country, could also be applicable to ANIMALS – especially Fulani Cows and so brazenly backed up by the Attorney General of the Federation who should know better!

However it is heart-warming that seventeen (17), Southern Governors, united along bi-partisan platform, had collectively passed  State Laws prohibiting any form of animal open grazing and also introduced local community policing to enforce obedience.

THE KATSINA RANCHING PACKAGE!

Interestingly, it was revealed recently that the Federal Government had now adopted a “pilot project option” for its National Livestock Transformation [ranching] Plan (NLTP), with the President’s Katsina State as the first “BENEFICIARY” packaged with a whooping take-off grant of N6.25 billion of public funds for the private or is it Katsina State Government enterprise?

ARE THE BOKO HARAM SPONSORS IN BUHARI’S GOVERNMENT MORE POWERFUL THAT GOD? NO!

“If this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the Godly from trials and hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of Judgement”. (2 Peter. 2:9).

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: President Buhari must urgently address FOOD SECURITY, FOOD INFLATION and POOR PURCHASING POWER of the masses in spite of his pressing CATTLE OPEN GRAZING PROJECT!

Nation’s inflation of goods and services especially of food between January and April Q1, 2021, according to a Consumer Price Index report released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), sky-rocketed from 17.33% on to 18.17% then 18.12% and climbed to a zenith of 20.57% to debunk any official claim of food surpluses/security since 2018!

These ridiculous and outrageous statistics are the highest year-on-year in over 11 years of Nigeria’s flagging economy which like other nations got a bashing from the unfortunate Covid-19 Pandemic, insecurity of lives/property through terrorism, banditry and the unabated institutional corruption by politicians in government circles!
