Lai Mohammed And Others Feeding Off El-Zakzaky

By Paul Onomuakpokpo
With a pedigree of an incurable self-advertisement behind it, the Muhammadu Buhari government is not known for half-measures.
Alas, this propensity has not found its profoundest expression in the prosecution of an agenda for engendering good governance. 
*Lai Mohammed 
The upshot is that the emergence of the Buhari government has burdened the citizens with a miserable existence that harks back to a Hobbesian state of nature where life is nasty, brutish and short on account of the half-hearted measures for governance that has been deployed. For the political party of Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC), there is the tragedy that this predilection has also become the petard on which it is being hoisted.
