NIGERIAN ARMY MUST STOP THE BLOOD SHEDDING IT BEGAN IN 1966 NOW!

(EASTER EDITION - 2024).

The Nigerian Army was an institution of honour and high repute until they dipped their hands IN CIVILIAN BLOOD IN 1966! Constitutionally the Nigerian army duties should be limited to defending The Nigerian Nation from external aggressions and when necessary to participate with great caution in Internal Security (IS Operations), as a defensive arm of government! However some adventurous soldiers mostly of the South East extraction on 15th January 1966 concocted some spurious allegations of tribalism, ethnicity but most importantly large scale institutional corruption against the politicians barely five years of freedom from colonialism into a constitutionally-elected parliamentary system of government and overthrew the legitimate institution!

No blood was shed during several years of negotiations between British Colonial masters and the founding fathers of Nigeria's independence and so it was very strange that guns were used to snuff out lives of Innocent Nigerians especially leaders of the Northern and South-Western parts of the country! It later became clear to all and sundry that the Igbo-dominated coup plotters had a hidden agenda to subject Citizens to military dictatorship! A reprisal against the coup in July of the same year eventually led to secession by the then Eastern Region from the rest of Nigeria and a continuous flow of Innocent Blood continued for the 30 months that a civil war lasted in the country! The 30 month Biafran or Nigerian Civil War began on 6th July 1967 and ended on 15th January 1970 under the commands of General Yakubu Gowon and late Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu with the unifying declaration of "NO VICTOR NO VANQUISHED slogan initiated by Rtd.General Gowon.

FIFTY-EIGHT YEARS OF CONTINUOUS BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA (1966-2024)!!!

From the first salvo of gun shot fired on 15th January 1966 by clandestine soldiers, tons and tons of blood of Innocent Nigerians have flowed ceaselessly to date! During the CIVIL WAR alone, government documented that not less than 1.5 million lives - civilians/soldiers perished! It is very safe to conclude that the military introduced bloodshed, sustained bloodshed AND IS STILL BENT ON PERPETRATING BLOODSHED IN NIGERIA!

Nigerians are industrious and peaceful people by nature in spite of the DIVERSITY that should normally be harnessed to build a very economically-viable country like the United States of America! Instead, suspicion and insincerity had existed in the political game of Nigeria since the unfortunate incident of 1966 because the dichotomy between North/South could not be breached because it got wider and wider by the day!

THE SOLDIERS HELD NIGERIANS TO RANSOM WITH THE GUNS FOR 30 YEARS!

Beginning with the 1996 Military Coup, the Nigerian army remained in power without anyone challenge them because they succeeded themselves with one coup after another! However they failed to realize that during their long tenure of changing batons through military high-handedness, all manner of aggrieved/disadvantaged groups began to amass illegal weapons which are now more sophisticated than what they could boast of! And they began to challenge the Army, the Police, Prisons (correctional facilities), and all security architectures in Nigeria! THE NIGERIAN DEFENSE ACADEMY, WAS NOT SPARED!

Right now violent attacks against all military installations across Nigeria has boxed Mr. 'Bola Tinubu's Federal Government into a very tight corner - when juxtaposed with the UNPARDONABLE POLICY SOMERSAULTS OF OUTRIGHT REMOVAL OF PETROLEUM SUBSIDY, FROM DAY OF INVESTITURE AS MR. PRESIDENT, MERGING OF OFFICIAL/PARALLEL FOREIGN EXCHANGE RATES, FLOATING OF A VERY WEAK AND DROWNING NIGERIA NAIRA CURRENCY; ETC. It is a shame that Nigeria which is regarded as the giant of Africa will now find itself in this kind of security quagmire!"BLOODY CIVILIANS" can now boast of more Guns than those of the security operatives put together!

 From the Niger Delta (South-South), during the Olusegun Obasanjo into the Yar'adua/Goodluck Jonathan Administrations, to the North-East, dissident groups included religion and ethnicity into their grouse against the Ruling Class and let loose mayhem on innocent Citizens of Nigeria! Militants of the Niger Delta coupled with Boko Haram insurgents flourished from 2007- 2024 and the blood continues to flow! Now, the Boko Haram terrorists have metamorphosed into bandits, rapists, armed herdsmen harassing farmers all over the country by deploying cows as shields to penetrate all societies and there's virtually no community that has been spared from their menace!

ATTACKS ON SECURITY AND MILITARY INSTALLATIONS IN NIGERIA ARE NOT NEW!

Between 2010 and 2024 Nigeria had faced several attacks from Boko Haram and other insurgencies and several gallant soldiers/security operatives have lost their lives in the process! Righteousness exalts a nation, but SIN is a reproach to all people according to biblical tenet but the crop of Nigerian politicians from 1999-2024 care less because they were very determined to enrich themselves even MORE THAN THE SOLDIERS! It should be regarded as ABOMINATION FOR CIVILIANS TO ATTACK THE MILITARY AND KILL THEM IN COLD BLOOD but from the preceding narratives the CULPABLE PARTY IN THE VERY DISGRACEFUL ANALYSIS ARE THE MEN IN KHAKI!

1) The constitutional duty of soldiers is to protect Nigeria and Nigerians from external aggressions!

2) They should always remember that they constitute a Force guided by chains of commands from the top most hierarchy which must be carried out with utmost alacrity and dedicated commitment.

3) The military are a bunch of trained security operatives who have passed through various deliberate and well-calculated indoctrination and should not throw all of those intrinsic values into the winds because of illicit gains!

4) They should be ready at all times to always obey Rules of Engagement to avoid being blamed for collateral damages in situations when things went wrong.

5) Soldiers were not supposed to delve into civil politics/administration with the evil agenda of tribalism, nepotism, cabalism etc, by shedding INN0CENT CIVILIAN BLOOD!

6) BUT FOR THAT UNWARRANTED MILITARY INTERVENTION IN 1966, NIGERIA WOULD HAVE BEEN THE MOST PEACEFUL AND ECONOMICALLY-VIABLE NATION OF THE WORLD TODAY!

7) THE PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT OF DR. NNAMDI AZIKIWE AS CEREMONIAL PRESIDENT AND ALHAJI TAFAWA BALEWA CAN BE DESCRIBED AS THE MOST PEACEFUL IN NIGERIA TO DATE.

8) Now that they have realized the enormous bloodshed they have caused in Nigeria since 1966-2025, they should be ready to make necessary RESTITUTIONS!

TO EVERY CHALLENGE THERE IS A SOLUTION!

The Solution rests squarely at the doorstep of the Nigerian Army and the Armed Forces including all Security Operatives put together to now join hands with THE ONGOING CAMPAIGN FOR A REFERENDUM THAT WOULD JETTISON THE VERY COSTLY AND CORRUPTION-INFESTED PRESIDENTIAL SYSTEM OF 24 YEARS AND REPLACE IT WITH A UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM THAT IS COST -EFFECTIVE AND WILL ENABLE ALL NIGERIANS FROM THE GRASSROOTS TO PARTICIPATE IN A TOTALLY VIOLENT-FREE AND STABLE GOVERNMENT FOR THE PEOPLE - JUST AS IT OBTAINS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM.

THIS IS THE MAJOR TASK BEFORE THE MILITARY AND WE BELIEVE THAT THEY WILL JOIN HANDS WITH MILLIONS OF NIGERIANS TO ACTUALIZE TRUE DEMOCRACY AS WE MOVE INTO THE SECOND QUARTER OF THIS YEAR 2024! THIS TIME AROUND SOLDIERS WILL SHOUT WITH TOPMOST VOICES AND NOT THE BARRELS OF GUNS IN SUPPORT OF UNICAMERAL PARLIAMENTARY SYSTEM OF GOVERNMENT THROUGH POPULAR REFERENDUM! GOD SAVE NIGERIA AMEN!
