And these times I am nostalgic about Buhari military era.
Those days when hoarders thought twice before warehousing essential commodities, petrol profiteers disappeared, bent preachers zipped up their foul mouthes and corrupt political activists refrained from inciting comments.
Heck!, the environment was so clean you can smell the roses from afar.
Yes, it was military dictatorship then, and an aberration.
But what do you call this democracy where people are killed at will because murderous pastors, governors and political jobbers incite their supporters to go on rampage?
What do you call this democracy where judges protect the powerful and jail the chicken thief?
You call this democracy an avenue for equal opportunities when however those in power looted billions of dollars and left 99% of our 170million poorer?
What democracy are we talking about that gives absolute freedom to charlatans, evildoers and thieves to enjoy their day at the office?

Olisa Agbakoba Speaks On 2014 National Conference. “You were a delegate to the 2014 National Conference. Do you think there is something in that report that can benefit this country if considered and implemented?” Olisa Agbakoba was asked by his interviewer He said; “We have been having national conferences going back to the time of Ibrahim Babangida, Sani Abacha, and (Olusegun) Obasanjo. They didn’t create the conferences in order to promote the interest of Nigeria. They created the conferences for their own personal interests. IBB created it to find a way to become a civilian leader – it crashed. Abacha created it in order to become a civilian leader – he died. Obasanjo created his own in order to become a third-term leader – he failed. Goodluck Jonathan created his own in order to have a seven-year tenure and to avoid election – he failed. So, why should I recommend any of such reports?”. Punch July 9, 2017.
