Until science exposed the legend of the wilderness and brought the mysteries of natural life home to man through the TV, little did the world realize the lion wasn’t the lord of creatures. That’s right, the world never completely understood that the lion, when alone, was an expected risk, whose assumed power is amplified by the strength in aggregate hunting, also called aggregate stealing from in Nigeria’s political circles: Kill and slash.
Somewhat attributable to man’s inclination for eminence and the absence of sufficient comprehension of the wilderness, people credit sovereignty to the lion due to its crown-like mane, ignoring the greatest, fiercest and generally strong of the felines, the tiger; as well as the greatest of the monsters, the elephant, both of whom can kill the lion – one-on-one.
It’s an illustration in endurance strategies when a completely mature lion strategically wanders away from the way of the hippopotamus or washes its tail in regard when a rhinoceros leaves past.
One-on-one, the lion would be good as dead to the mountain bear, neither might it at any point without any assistance kill the giraffe, who can kick with the four legs, and would just have a 50-50 possibility in a duel with a silverback gorilla.
At the point when I watched a video, in which a compromising pride of lions was reluctant to go close to a fight prepared porcupine, I recollected the Yoruba precept, “kí kéré labẹ́rẹ́ kéré, kìí se mímì fádìyẹ,” and comprehended the no which the needle in the pile has become for the chicken.
Overflowing with solid pounds of solidarity, the bull’s genuineness is carved in stone. Intellectually, nonetheless, its head is a vacuous hole coming up short on the cerebrum expected to endure wilderness hunters. The meat of the bull can’t be nourishment for a solitary lion with the exception of lions chase in packs to beat starvation.
Typically, there would be an unevenness in the well established pecking order in the event that bulls were adequately astute to repulse lions aggregately. Yet, bulls won’t go after lions since it’s in their DNA to be resigned, to be enormous in vain and dumb, with the exception of periodic demonstrations of obstruction when the pursued pivots to gut the tracker.
We, Nigerians, are bulls. The resigned Significant General Muhammadu Buhari-drove government is a pride of lions – weak harassers eating up genealogical patrimony and stomping all over the privileges of the bashful masses unequipped for thinking since that is the manner in which the administering lions believe that they should be in the wilderness called Nigeria.
In the event that the heredity of lions had not wrecked the personalities of Nigerians, the majority would have understood the power in their numbers and ascended to free themselves from frailty, completely imploded framework, destitution and starvation. No one, aside from formally dressed workers like the individuals from the Lagos transport association and foreordained slaves, would connect with the All Moderates Congress today.
In the nonsensicality of his insight, the ruler of Nigeria’s wishy washy pride of lions, Buhari, supported for state-possessed security corps in Katsina and Borno to bear AK-47 firearms yet he kept the solicitation from getting Ondo State Lead representative, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu, for the Western Nigerian Security Organization Office also known as Amotekun security corps to remain battle ready.
In spite of the fact that I’m not the least bit sold on the appointment of the People groups Progressive alliance up-and-comer, Atiku Abubakar, and that of the Work Party applicant, Peter Obi, for both are cut from worn out People groups Leftist alliance fabric, the double-dealing activities of Buhari beginning around 2015 are nails sufficiently long to seal the final resting place of the APC.
Akeredolu, annoyed by the nepotism of the Emir, Northern caliphate, Sheik Muhammadu ibn Buhari, blamed the ex-warrior who was thrown out of the Military in August 1985, of purposely presenting Yoruba lives to pirates and obliterating the locale’s rural area.
Akeredolu, who is the Executive, South-West Lead representatives’ Discussion, said, “Denying Amotekun the earnestly required freedoms to honestly remain battle ready is a disavowal of the premise of genuine federalism, which we have been clamoring for. That Katsina had the option to arm its state security force with AK-47 methods we are chasing after a one-country, two-framework answer for the public inquiry.
“On the off chance that the Katsina circumstance presents benefits on some, despite generally confronted existential dangers, it implies that our unitary policing framework, which has fizzled, is a purposeful strategy for enslavement which should be tested.”

Executive, Afenifere Reestablishment Gathering, and previous Secretary General, Public Majority rule Alliance, Good Rib Oshun, likewise blamed Nigeria for twofold guidelines in supporting arms for Borno State JTF and Katsina State security unit while denying Yoruba conditions of a similar motion.
In a phone talk with me on Sunday, Oshun especially lamented the multiplication of arms and ammo in the South-West, cautioning that the unsteadiness in the framework predicted grave peril for the whole country.
He asked in the video, “For what reason should Borno JTF and Katsina State Security Unit have arms endorsed for them by the unitary government yet Amotekun, despite blatant attack into Yoruba land by unidentified ethnic psychological oppressors of both neighborhood and unfamiliar starting points, can’t convey arms, why?
“Afenifere Restoration Gathering fights that it is this sort of exemption by the unitary administration of Nigeria and the disruption of league rules that carried us to this low degrees of blatant frailty, breakdown of our schooling system and the hugely ruined people in our country.”
Oshun, who praised Akeredolu, expressed regardless of the 2023 races and the misrepresentation that majority rule government was on course, Nigeria would possibly make due as a country just when the necessary established rebuilding was completed.
“No part of the nation can hold it (Nigeria) together on the sheer power of arms on a long-lasting premise. It will possibly stay together if we, all Nigerians, consent to allow it to stay together,” he said.
Like a group with bull minds, Nigerians rankadedelise our victimizers, who shut college doors against our kids, we live in wretched obscurity, day to day squander five hours of our lives on the Lagos-Ibadan Freeway, and gesture to unpleasant Emi Lokan mood by the singer of Bourdillon.
I’ll emphasize for the umpteenth time that none among the APC official applicant, Bola Tinubu, Atiku and Obi is looking for office to really foster Nigeria; all are looking for office for the power, advantages and gear in that.
I say this on the grounds that every one of the official competitors realizes that no advancement can radiate from the proceeded with utilization of the favorable to North 1999 Constitution, which upholds the ongoing frenzy sickly our dear country. In any case, not even one of them has said the undeniable nor made sense of how for achieve the ideal sacred correction false name rebuilding.
Going by political history and arising signs from the camps of the APC, PDP and LP, the perusing of the political gauge of the APC in the South-West shows a penchant for vote purchasing, voting form grabbing and savagery, the very same signs on the PDP Northern gauge which has youngster casting a ballot to boot while the LP indicator on the South-East hub shows disruptive remarks, ethnicism and digital harassing.
Leading the 2023 decisions without rebuilding, and expecting an adjustment of the fortunes of the nation resembles bringing water with a bin or heading up North from Abuja and hoping to land in Calabar.
