Like medieval potentates who fiddled around while their empires
were in the grip of mortal perils, President Muhammadu Buhari has since lost
the capacity to resolve for us the question of whether our nation is on the
brink of anarchy.
This is because Buhari and his officials are
stuck in a reality that does not reflect the pains of the people.
In other words, if the country staves off a
post-Gaddafi Libya-like anarchy and it remains one after the tenure of Buhari,
the credit should go to the forbearance and prescience of those who are outside
his government.
*Buhari and Danjuma |
During the recession that the government claims to have overcome through its
deft economic management, it amounted to blackmail of the Buhari administration
to draw its attention to the reality of the suffering of the masses.
