No Nigerian should be happy with the bitterness, wickedness and
vengeful spirit that pervades our land. Our people are now not only divided
along religious and ethnic lines but also along political lines with the
attendant bickering thereof.
Our new media is filled with people spewing insults, abuses and
so much hatred. The government has elevated propaganda to a historical level
while the ruling party, not content with lies and deceits, now engages in promoting spite and political
persecution.
What can lead
a distinguished Senator of the federal Republic of Nigeria
to burn the constitution of an opposing political party? It is not enough to
dismiss this as the excesses and exuberance of a victor, not at all, this is
really part of an organized and coordinated warfare against the vanquished
party!
We lost an
election, some of us publicly convicted without trial by the government as a
group of corrupt Nigerians, electoral victories of our governors, senators and
honorable members reversed, members arrested and detained with orchestrated
charges, our freedom and liberties denied and now our constitution torn and
burnt by an opponent in pure disdain, ridicule and scorn. In what other ways
can we be so humiliated and abused?
I speak the
minds of millions of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) members when I say enough
is enough.
The Almighty God knows that in opposition we have been decent, responsible and civil. We have accorded our conquerors great respect not because we are afraid but because it is right, proper and will definitely assist in promoting an enduring political culture in our land.

Enough of the
bitterness and acrimony, let the President start the healing process side by
side his anti-corruption legacy.
WE ARE TOO
DIVIDED!!!
