NDA ATTACK: NOBODY HAS SAID ANYTHING NEW
August 31, 2021 | News
With the rapid deterioration of security in Nigeria, with the terrorists getting more daring and human life more worthless in their psyche, at what point will the majority defenseless Nigerians rise and say with one voice, "enough is enough".

NDA ATTACK: NOBODY HAS SAID ANYTHING NEW
Recent uncensored indictment of federal government as culpable in emboldening terrorists to the point of attacking the NDA may be revealing but nobody has said anything knew.
The rank and file of the military who, on the frontline, feel the heat of government deliberate compromise on the security situation have regularly cry out over how military chiefs compromise the security architecture.
Nigeria can't as it were can't hold together much longer, unless there's mutual restructuring to give all components units a genuine sense of belonging to avoid a violent break-up.
With the rapid deterioration of security in Nigeria, with the terrorists getting more daring and human life more worthless in their psyche, at what point will the majority defenseless Nigerians rise and say with one voice, "enough is enough".
With Imams and notable northern leaders now bold enough to openly own up and share the blame of a deep-seated bloodsucking jihad to Islamize the entire country, at what point will the Nigerian leadership accept failure and allow for mutual restructuring?
It's no surprise that following retired Nigeria Navy Commodore, Kunle Olawunmi's uncensored indictment of the Federal Government and the military for sponsoring the growing terrorism against the nation, other informed voices have continued to resonate same narrative.
A former director of Department of State Services, Mike Ejiofor has just so declared that it’s obvious that both retired and serving military personnel are working with the Boko Haram to destroy the country.
Like Olawunmi, Ejiofor was unequivocal on the conclusion that recent audacious attacks on the Nigerian Defence Academy and bringing down an air force aircraft with culprit prime suspect being held cannot be contemplated by the terrorist without some retired and serving military personnel aiding and abetting.
As shocking as it sounds, only those who have not been monitoring the trends on the security situation in the country will express surprise at Olawunmi and Ejiofor's expert revelations. For me, without undermining their boldness, both retired security merely restated what has been common knowledge all along.
On the front lines, Nigerian soldiers who are daily kept on a war of attrition against relentless Boko Haram have been crying out that the unending terrorism is a fraud being sponsored by prominent politicians and the military chiefs are profiting from the massive security votes while exposing them as cannon folders.
The rank and file in the field has been complaining that the nation's armed forces have experiences, human and material capacity to wipe out the so dreaded Boko Haram, but for the military chiefs who compromise their efforts. The complaint that the military chiefs deny those on the frontline of needed arms and ammunition against the insurgence.
From all indications, it's obvious that the Nigerian union under the present dispensation, particularly under the President Muhammadu who is acquiescent to the violent Islamisation agenda cannot deny this weighty allegation.
The imperative is for all parties to come to the table to agree to mutual restructuring or political class must allow equity, fairness, justice, merit and excellence prevail in a restructured Nigeria.
Disappointingly, none of both options can be legislated by a rubber-stamp Legislature which cares more about the bloated welfare of members than the common good of citizens.
And as long as impunity prevails, a violent change, so looming, is inescapable.
