STILL ON THE TY DANJUMA BOMBSHELL


We should not forget the import of the moment, the auspicious pedestal on which this was said, the veracity of the facts as stated, and the potency of the words used.
Most importantly, we should not ignore the antecedents of the man that said it!
TY Danjuma and his band of revenge coup plotters did a murderous clean sweep of the Igbo officers (and co-planners of the first Nigerian coup in January, 1966) in the Nigeria army, and went ahead to also murder Gen. Aguiyi Ironsi (then head of state) and his Yoruba host governor, Col Adekunle Fajuyi.
For this, Gen (rtd) has been feeding fat for the last 52 years with his pay cheque by the caliphate of the juiciest set of oil wells in Nigeria under his Sapetro Petroleum conglomerate.
He is one of the richest Nigerians alive today.
Even as at that time, before the coup and after, General Danjuma was a man one could not ignore in the scheme of things. Till today, those in authority either in government, religion or business still can’t ignore him.
Only few Generals in this country command our National attention like Gen. Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma. When he talks people listen and take him seriously. He has been a participant and a key player on major decisions that have affected this nation. He still commands that respect and a lot of people still believe him.
He chose a high pedestal (during the delivery of his speech as chancellor of Taraba State University) to deal a mortal blow to the Buhari regime and his promotion and support of his calamitous Fulani herdsmen. 
Buhari and the agenda of the Jihadists are not likely to recover from this bombshell, nor gain traction thereafter.
It is either war from here, or a suspicious peace of the graveyard!
The boom of his thunderous voice is going to reach far and wide, beyond the shores of Nigeria, and is going to resonate in every city, village and hamlet of the hapless Nigeria people who have been brutalised, killed, machetted, raped and dealt with uncommon beastiality by a band of savages, the like of which only belongs to medieval barbarians.
It is going to serve as a rallying cry to rouse some of our elites and intelligentsia, who are still drunk with the opium of stupor fumes  from Fulani janjaweed that there is REAL FIRE on the mountain. And WE MUST ALL START RUNNING to defend ourselves!
Some.mouths that had been cowed into silence will now begin to open. The shame will now dawn on our Yoruba leaders like Tinubu and Osinbajo who fiddled while Yorubaland  and Nigeria burned!
Yes, Danjuma was a major part of the problem! And now, in his dying days, if he has chosen restitution by igniting a fiery furnace to finally solve the problem, what is our issue with that?
If it is the restitution the man wants, let us run with his exultation and fight with the tenacity that the fear of the terror he has painted unleashes.
We are in deep shit in Nigeria! 
The holocaust being planned by the Fulani is horrendously monumental in its contemplation. Yet my fellow countrymen, especially the Yoruba, seem above it all, and not in the least concerned. 
They are still planning politics and pursuing the path of a doomed election.
The anointed 'victor ludolum' does not need your votes now. He has captured all the instruments of coercion, and destruction directs his visage!
The belligerent president wills armageddon on his hapless citizenry.
If it takes the grating voice of yesterday's mercenary to rouse us to man our stockades, to defend our peoples cultures and civilisations, so be it.
We definitely need a rousing from this contrived slumber!

OBOREVWORI: How Not To Glorify A 'One Chance' Governor - By Zik Gbemre

It is appalling how, in desperation to sustain its thieving hegemony over the Delta State Government since 1999, the Delta PDP had the audacity to impose the weakest, most uninformed contender, a local champion, as Governor over a state replete with accomplished men and women of immense capacity. Given this unenviable privilege, one would have expected the fortunate placeholder governor, Sheriff Oborevwori—whose only election campaign manifesto was pledging to improve on the failed leadership of Ifeanyi Okowa, his predecessor—to engage creative minds and individuals of proven integrity to assist him in making a difference. Rather than doing the needful, Oborevwori has worsened matters by electing to engage the same spent leaders, deadwood, and gluttons that have gained prominence in running the state down over successive administrations. The result has been a government of mediocre officeholders competing to run the state for their pockets at the detriment of the populace, under a gove...

THE ENDURING LEGACY OF LEADERSHIP: Chief James Ibori Celebrated for His Impact on Delta State

On Friday, May 31st, during the funeral service for the Late Asagba of Asaba, the essence of true leadership was vividly displayed. The service featured the introduction of various dignitaries, including Senator George Akume, Secretary to the Government of the Federation who represented President Bola Tinubu, Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, Governor Godwin Obaseki, and Former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa. As each dignitary was introduced, the church remained silent. However, the atmosphere dramatically changed when the name of Former Governor James Ibori was announced; the congregation erupted in wide jubilation and applause. This reaction was so profound that even Senator George Akume and Governor Obaseki could not hide their astonishment. The enthusiastic reception for Chief James Ibori during this solemn occasion highlighted his enduring legacy among the people of Delta State. Despite having left office seventeen years ago, he continues to be celebrated whenever he attends public functions i...
