12 Benefits Of A Healthier Sex Life That Have Nothing To Do With The Obvious

Vanguard columnist, Rotimi Fasan really deserves a National Award for courage to expose the 'monkey tricks' all along being engaged by the Northern traditional and political elites on the devastating issues of Islamic insurgency, terrorists invaders having the borders in the northern part of the country flung open for their unchecked infiltration 

The immigration officials claim helpless that there are countless borders in the North that would be impossible to man and check the infiltration of terrorists masquerading as herdsmen from the Sahel region of West Africa

Although well informed Nigerians were never hoodwinked and bamboozled about the sudden emergence of Islamic insurgency deceptively named: Boko Haram, bandits, criminals, ISWAP and ubiquitous AK 47 wielding terrorists masquerading as herdsmen conducting themselves as being above the law having a supposed "godfather" in Aso Villa.

It would be recalled that during the presidency of Good luck Jonathan, the northern traditional and political elites did not hide their abhorrence for his ascendency to the presidency arguing that the north had to complete the vacuum created by the untimely death of President Shehu Y'adua.

To be fair and forthright, their claim was justified but the "powerful" former president, Obasanjo throwing his weight about installed Jonathan to the chagrin and resentment of the northern traditional and political elites. In the frantic ferocious attempt to demonstrate their grouse, Boko Haram sprouted and began to exhibit clear signs of terrorists, constituting a formidable threat to the Sovereignty of the country.

Armed with the Sovereign power inherent in the presidency, president Jonathan as the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces effectively mobilized the armed forces, air, land and sea headed by the formidable Army General Ihejirika who relentlessly pursued the Islamic invaders to the point of routing them but the northern traditional and political elites rose against the Army General Ihejirika and Jonathan saying that "attack on Boko Haram is attack on the north". What an amazing declaration and brazen faced utterance!

The same phalanx turned around to accuse Jonathan of gross incompetence to secure Nigeria from terrorists and conspired to manipulate the presidential election to throw up an incompetent northern person to be president. "The rest", as the saying goes, "is history" . The past eight years of northern person as president witnessed a horrendous atrocities in Terrorism, armed AK-47 wielding pastoralists invaders, terrorists baptised as "criminals and bandits", and the so-called ISWAP etc. which majored in mindless kidnapping for ransom running into hundreds of millions while the supposed Nigerian police and sister security agencies pretend that they are helpless even as they are beholden to the landlord in Aso Villa for his "body language", as it were.

Then enter the "Emilokan" presidency: kidnapping especially in the North went into overdrive not minding the open evidence of a well-coordinated syndicate covertly piloted by the elites. Hear the detailed account of the erudite columnist Rotimi Fasan including the photo shop of his article on the issue of kidnapping in the north covertly guided by the elites ostensibly to leave the ugly impression that president Tinubu is not capable of finding pragmatic panacea for routing the Islamic insurgency and terrorists masquerading as herdsmen kidnapping for humongous ransom:

Nor has Gumi bothered to say a word about the complicity of the Northern political and religious elite in the creation of the state of insecurity that pervades the region. His fingers are always pointing at people and institutions outside the North...the apparent complicity of the Northern elite in the lawlessness should make the issue less of national concern or embarrassment and more a matter of the regional and communal responsibility of those concerned.

No sooner are the criminals appeased than they return to their vomit. Banditry or insurgency will end in the North the day the Northern elite in general and the communities concerned in particular decide that they have had enough".

Minimum Wage Implementation Without A Review Of Statutory Revenue Sharing Formula Will Be A Barren Excise

For many years the federal government refused to review statutory allocation sharing to reduce the humongous share of the federal government, 54 percent.

That is why the past and present president refused to devolve powers to the state government. State police is a virtual impossibility without a review of statutory revenue sharing. APC-led federal government is not working towards devolution of powers (don't call it restructuring the lopsided federation and dumping the military decreed unitary constitution.
