#RevolutinNow: A Truth that is yet to be accepted -By Caleb Ijioma

Citizens of Nigeria and those in Diaspora have watched in total dismay how the Federal Government have enacted anti-citizen policies and how they have deliberately increased the poverty rate in Nigeria.

Just recently, the payment for hate speech was increased from #500,000 to #5million naira, Boko Haram terrorist who killed many and made many homeless were rehabilitated and the FG announced their graduation. Well we are yet to know how many of them graduated with first class, maybe, they might get instant unemployment. Pitiful

Our soldiers fighting against Boko Haram terrorist are being killed, they die daily for the unity and peace of this country, they lay down their lives, maybe with the hope that they will be remembered, if not now, someday. They are humans too, with family.

Talking about NDDC, how the chairman fainted with one eye open after questions as regards the finance in his disposal meant for building “visible projects” and to make the people of Niger Delta better

Should we talk about how activists and citizens are being detained for seeking the path of truth.

Should we discuss how grey head politicians with “analogue brains” are mismanaging public funds, collecting loans and selling the Future of Nigeria.

How do we discuss the death of innocent citizens caused by security agencies whom they are meant to protect, how citizens are being extorted daily and offences shared amongst innocent citizens?

Lives have become so cheap in Nigeria and truthfully, the FG have done little as regards this. Mass burial each day , pains and trauma rising everyday

Our healthcare is in a dilapidated state, our schools have less funding, laws are being enacted to frustrate small scale businesses, investments built since years are crumbling.

The Federal Government have shown that protest is the only language they understand. With the incessant arrest and killing of protesters and truth seekers, they have registered fear for the truth

Placards has been seen as weapons and the voices of truth seekers has been sensed to be bombs that can destroy the country. Funny I must say, who are the true killers of Nigeria?

Citizens want a better life, they want to be safe, they want to be protected, they want a conducive environment for business, they want education. You cannot frustrate citizens and expect them to keep quiet for long. They deserve a better Future.

It’s surprising how security agencies are Swift in arresting peaceful protester even though they share part of our pain. I can remember how I and some peaceful protesters were arrested on the 5th of August, 2019 and detained at abeokuta for four days. A police officer approached us and told us how they have a strong desire to join the protest but can’t.

This it the truth that is yet to be accepted the the Government. “The abacha days are here again”

You cannot kill an idea that have come to stay as a people United can never be broken.

We want a change and citizens have gone out to speak to the ears of the Government peacefully.

They should not forget that the truth is light and it will shine so bright.
