This is one of those posts one makes striving to use the
most civil words to describe uncivil acts.
As the people of the Falkland Islands head for the polls
(10th and 11th March 2013) for a Referendum to decide whether to remain a
British territory or otherwise, I hope Olusegun Obasanjo, our quintessential
buffoon who Nigeria had had the misfortune to be ruled by twice in his lifetime
and Bola Ajibola, a pretender to the title of legal luminary who once sat on
the hallowed bench of the International Court of Justice will bow their heads
in shame for their ignoble roles in ceding Nigeria’s Bakassi Peninsular to
Cameroun.
If the people of Falkland Islands can have an opportunity
to decide to which country they should belong to, why on earth would any sane
mind think that an illegitimate ‘GreenTree Document’ signed in some offshore
locations, will suffice to cede a part of Nigeria to whomsoever?
Such wicked insensitivity as was visited on the citizens
of Bakassi Peninsular would never have occurred in a properly restructured and
renegotiated Nigeria.
