IT
is not news when we read and hear of the continuous threat and drum of
war by the Northern Elders Forum over the 2015 elections. It is not
equally news when the consistent and unabated criticisms of this regime
by Dr. Paul Unongo and Prof. Ango Abdullahi over everlasting hold on to
power by the North. Must these two egg heads be in power forever or must
any government that doesn’t favour them go on extinction? This writer
is not a beneficiary of the government because he is a Ph.D holder
without a commensurate job. He is working with a first degree but must
we threaten President Jonathan every day? My respectable elder
statesmen, what did you contribute to the upliftment of the youths and
your states when you were in power? This country needs patriots, bridge
builders and nationalists and not ethnic bigots, jingoists and
apologists but promoters of national unity and cohesion. Let 2015 decide
for itself but how many times have the elites queue up for hours to
register, verify their voter cards and then vote? Time will tell and
decide. On democracy we stand and no inciting statements can change the
youths now. No reasonable youth is ready to fight for elections now when
their children are in abroad wasting our common wealth.
