POLI-TRICKS AND DEMO-CRAZY

I extremely dislike to put pen to paper in relation to Nigeria politics cum politicians; but this absurd incident has however argue against that decision and constrained me to write discordantly, my disappointments to the many sad, disgusting and irritating live happenings that stares at me through the Media and crashed my eardrums to nothingness and re-birth, and fertilized the growing dis-satisfactions in me for my incapable country politicians!

When I was a child, I saw my father as a god because he governs our family of eight with his great abilities, providing all the necessities with his low income to keep us going. As a growing chap, I understood that a leader is someone who could manage emotions, situations and crisis. Someone who isn’t just matured in age but in his mental abilities, someone whose “self” is not as important as the people he governs, someone who could stand as an icon, a warrior, a god; defending, managing, providing and directing all affairs that concerns the people he governs!

And today, my definition of a leader - a true leader; remains unchanged.

It is however frowning to the fact that we keep electing and re-electing people who has no notion on the subject of leadership, people whose intents are to embezzle and cripple the accounts of our dear country, sucking our every resources dry with their straws of selfishness and greed. It is more sad, inappropriate or rather a slap to our faces as fellow countrymen to know that we become thugs, go out of our minds to vote people into power because of the accursed pocket money that we receives from them. How pathetic!

The River State House of Assembly’s obnoxious saga has wide-opened my eyes to the fact that some of our “so-called-politicians” whom we collectively voted into power are cultists, hooligans, barbarians, thugs and heartless carnivorous animals whose regards for human lives are on the losing sides of the scale. In recent times, thugs are taking over power and credible politicians either get assassinated or crossing the carpets from reliability to in-dependability; like Odia Ofeimun wrote: “every soldier becomes a thug and every thug becomes the law.”

It is hard to describe how exceedingly shameful the act of the so-called law makers turned law breakers. How could a lawmaker for God’s sakes, so disrespect the mace – River State’s staff of justice; to the point of using it as a weapon? I am so extremely disappointed in our Nigeria political system. What we practice is not politics but poli-tricks; tricking our way into power and out of power, leaving us lawless and allowing jungle justice to prevail! When Aluu community shook the entire nation with their barbaric act, we called it ‘brutal and inhuman’; we all stood for justice… But the big question here is: What should we title this season2 of Aluu-movie put-up by Rivers State House of Assembly?

Correcting this existing error in Nigeria politrical system, requires all hands on deck. Yes! You and myself! Until we stop becoming political thugs and toys and start to refuse their disaster-prone money and gifts; and vow to print our thumbs for credible politicians (leaders) not politricktians who would betray their own words for stolen wealth, our dreams of having a well-balanced political system, will exist only in our minds.
