Buhari Unleashes His Army Against The Igbo’s of Nigeria’s South East Region.

by Eze Eluchie,

The Nigerian military’s so called “Operation Python Dance 2” taking place in the South Eastern States (Abia, Anambra, Ebonyi, Enugu and Imo States) is an act of war against nd’Igbo. The Military operations being embarked upon by the Nigerian army is akin to the Army of the Kingdom of Spain embarking on outlandish ‘display of force’ in the streets of Barcelona and across the Catalonia region or the British Army provocatively deploying Tanks, Armoured Personnel Carriers with AK-47 totting soldiers patrolling the streets of Edinburgh and other major Scottish cities, towns and villages.  

There is absolute no reason whatsoever to deploy armed soldiers, in massive numbers, on streets of cities and towns/villages against unarmed civilian population. The military operations is provocative and geared towards creating opportunities to cause fear, harm and kill amongst an ethnic group against whom the Nigerian ruler has shown palpable angst and dislike – particularly as the same Government has refused to address acts of ethnic cleansing being perpetuated against the peoples of Nigeria’s Middle Belt region by so-called Herdsmen. The killings, maiming and injuries to be visited on the civilian population cannot be said to be ‘unanticipated’ or ‘collateral damages’ – these harms are actually premeditated and planned.

Excuses preferred by Buhari’s Army that the deployment of troops was in response to ‘security challenges’ falls as mere hogwash when juxtaposed against the same Military’s ominous silence, inaction, lack of response and at times explicit connivance to the systematic ethnic cleansing and genocide being perpetuated against the various peoples of Nigeria’s Middle Belt region by Fulani Herdsmen men. In a Statement signed on behalf of the Army Chief of Staff (General Buratai) by the Chief of Operations and Training (General Ahmadu), both as the bulk of Nigeria’s military personnel of northern extraction, the Military Operations “is conceptualized to transit into real time operations against violent criminals and agitators when called upon”. In other words, the Military was foisting itself to take over policing duties in an area recognized in a recent United Nations survey as the most peaceful region of Nigeria.

As evidenced by preliminary activities undertaken in Afaraukwu near Umuahia, home town of the leader of a prominent group agitating for the ,under the pretext of ‘Operation Python Dance 2” during which a convoy of soldiers traversed through residential areas which led to altercation between the soldiers and civilians, the period of this totally unprofessional and uncalled for military exercise will result in multiple civilian causalities, extreme radicalization of otherwise peaceful protesters/agitators and the deification/sainthood/martyrdom of those that will be felled.    .

Nigeria’s ruler, Muhammadu Buhari, is clearly living up to expectations as a man with a pathological disdain and hatred for a people, nd’Igbo. Like persons who held similar dispositions against industrious and dynamic peoples, posterity will sooner than later, consign the rule to his rightful position.

Nigeria’s Disgraceful Justice Delivery Sector: Regarding Election Dispute Resolution, Shame On Us All!

by Eze Eluchie,

The entire Nigerian Justice sector should bow our it's head in shame.

Two years after elections have been concluded, frivolous applications by unscrupulous attorneys condoned by a fraudulent system continue to bog down decisions on election petitions – allowing criminal elements who rigged elections to continue to fleece the contraption and further pauperize the population.

Within 20 days of the Kenyan Presidential elections, the Supreme Court judgement on a petition filed to protest the said elections was delivered – annulling the August 11 2017 Presidential elections and ordering a re-run.

What else do we expect of a contraption whose so-called ‘Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria’ is in reality a mere Schedule to a Military Decree (Decree No. 24 of 1999 – the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria {Promulgation} Decree 1999), signed into effect by a renegade soldier (a successor/beneficiary of the treasonable act of violent overthrow of a democratically elected government).  

Despite opposition from those who think they are presently benefiting from the rot which the Nigerian system is and represents, each and every aspect of the Nigerian polity is in need of holistic restructuring and renegotiation, lest we continue to be a source of ridicule to our population and humanity.

Let’s Restructure and Renegotiate the contraption whilst there is yet time.

Winding Up The #BringBackOurGirls and #BH Scam

by Eze Eluchie, 

The publicity outfit charged with Nigeria military operations against Boko Haram (PRNigeria) has been announcing with child-like relish, the ‘surrender’ and confessions’ of a so-called BH Commander, Auwal Ismaeela, who amongst other feats, owned up to being part of the terrorists who masterminded and executed dastardly terror attacks amongst which include the Chibok ‘abductions’ (during which over 300 secondary school students were taken away from their school), the massacre at federal Government College, Bunu Yadi (during which 47 male secondary school students were slaughtered). It appears the Military's Directorate of Publicity is 'shy' to announce the 'monumental' feat by itself.

In the Press Release by the media outfit, BH Commander Auwal states: “myself and Abu Hasfat, a Boko Haram Commander, led other squads to abduct the Chibok girls. We led the operation to invade Gwoza, Bama. Limankara Mobile Barracks, Bita, Bosso, Madagali, Chibok, Pulka, Firgi and Mubi”. Continuing, the PRNigeria release states: “in an interview with PRNigeria at a Military facility for the repentant and surrendered Boko Haram members in the Northeast, the ex-terrorist leader said he regretted the atrocities he was forced to commit against humanity”. This Auwal Ismmaeela fellow had virtually owned up to been the Commander of virtually all major Boko Haram operations in Nigeria.

Hurray! Hurray!! The search is over. The perpetrators and leadership of Boko Haram have surrendered and confessed to their sins. We must now forgive all the beheadings, mass rapes and abductions; bombings at public places which killed several hundreds and maimed countless more. We can now all go back to sleep and presume the abductions, the killings, destructions all never took place or were a figment of our joint imaginations.

With this Auwal Ismaeela character in custody, need we look any further? Why bother with any Shekau (spurious BH leader) when we have a bird in hand who has confessed to virtually all the ‘confesables’?

The stark reality is that the ruse of the Chibok ‘abductions’ and other vile terroristic acts perpetuated under the subterfuge of BH has yielded desired political goals. There is thus the need to bring the ‘noise’ generated to an acceptable and plausible end. How else do you do this without a major ‘surrender and confession’?

In the interim, those who are suspected to have orchestrated, funded, instigated, promoted and encouraged the adoption and deployment of terror as a political strategy and means to attainment of political power continue to enjoy the fruits of their ‘labour’ - spoils of the very high political offices they now occupy in Nigeria.  

Hopefully, it will by now have dawned on former US First Lady (Michelle Obama), former UK Prime Minister (Dave Cameron), CNN Anchor (Christian Amanpour) and countless others including several celebrities around the world and hundreds of Nigerians who were sucked into carrying the #BringBackOurGirls placards that they had merely been swindled by a most vicious cabal whose desperation to grab political power in Nigeria knew no bounds, and merely viewed the abduction of innocent school girls and the harm occasioned to the damsels (including the fact that some were wasted) as mere collateral damages in the quest for power.

With the surrender, ‘confession’ of Boko Haram leaders who participated in the Chibok ‘abductions’ and the subsequent enrolment of these scumbags into the Nigerian governments ‘sophisticated’ amnesty and ‘re-education’ program, the curtains are being drawn on the Chibok abductions and the wastage of hundreds of other lives by BH terrorists in several schools and communities across Nigeria’s north-east region.

......and all lived happily ever after? Really?

With all situations where thugs are empowered with weapons by their paymasters, there is always the reality that not all of those thugs will be willing to return the arms they were given at the end of the 'assignment'. Despite Auwal Ismaeela's 'surrender and confessions', there will still be many thugs like him, who having tasted the power derived by unbridled control and use of weapons, will not let go easily of such weapons, even when being coerced with cash, positions and whatsoever.  

There ought to and should be accountability for mass atrocities.
