If this is true, then NIGERIA is doomed


Is Nigeria about to self-destruct?
By Samod Biobaku

The first time I received this message, the first thing that came to my mind was to thrash the message or stay as far away as possible as I could from the information I had on my hands.

This would not be because I considered the message untrue but simply because of the thoughts of what could happen if information reaching mean happened to be true. In addition, the security implication of dissemination was information.
For those who still do not understand what all this is about, here it. Earlier today, a source revealed to be that shortly after the Gombe incident where gunmen were reported to have opened fire in a church in Gombe, the police command in the state had swung into action and successfully nabbed one of the gunmen.
The shocking part of what we gathered was that the arrested gunman was allegedly identified as an n agent of the State Security Service (SSS).
At this point, our source revealed that this allegedly got complicated for the police knowing the federal might the SSS wields.
We further learnt that a directive suddenly came from Abuja directing the police to release the arrested SSS operative and bury the case.
Confirming this report has proved a little tough because as at the time of filing this report, we are yet to get an official reaction from the S.S.S but let us all pause and consider the weight of this report irrespective of where the pendulum eventually swings.
No matter how you look at this, it all boils down to the competence and motive of President Goodluck Jonathan.
I received a message today, which harps on the insincerity of Jonathan and how questionable more than a few of his decisions have been.
Here:
“So I'm seriously starting to think that Jonathan President just keeps fanning the flames of a Nigerian revolution with his hat. Mr. President is already in South Africa to celebrate with ANC on its 100th Anniversary!
Yet last night he called for an ‘immediate’ cut in foreign trips to ‘the barest minimum.’ Ironically, he was at a dinner last night organised by the ANC (that broadcast was recorded).
It is this type of hypocrisy and nonchalant attitude from our leaders that I find irksome and disturbing!
Now he's in Bloemfontein (South Africa) with an entourage so large you‎'d think it was a PDP political rally.
This guy thinks we are fools and cowards, so he has ordered the mindless security agencies to brutalize us if we dare protest while he and his entourage are having fun in another country.
What kind of man leaves his house on fire and goes to the neighbour's house to celebrate a birthday party?”
