"I laughed over the Ycee 'Olodo Uprising' topic, not because I found it funny, but because he was identifying something in his time. However, he was seeing the latter stage of something that started in my own generation when I was probably his age.
I spoke about weaponized ignorance for the first time in 1994 when I wrote a piece on it. He is identifying the same phenomenon. The 'Olodo Uprising' was fathered by weaponized ignorance."

Brigadier General Maxwell Mitikushe Khobe. The only Nigerian General to serve as Chief of Defence Staff in another country. In Sierra-Leone, his name is history. Streets were named after him.
In August 1997, following a military coup in Sierra-Leone that ousted President Ahmad Tejan Kabbah, Khobe was appointed commander of the ECOMOG peacekeeping force in Sierra-Leone Under his leadership, ECOMOG undertook a series of operations to reinstate the legitimate government. His command was marked by strategic offensives that targeted rebel strongholds and weakened their grip on key territories.
A significant milestone was the successful assault on Freetown in February 1998. This operation led to the outsting of Major Johnny Paul Koroma's junta and facilitated the reinstatement of President Kabbah.
Following the restoration of the civilian government, Khobe was appointed Chief of Defence Staff of Sierra-Leone in April 1998. He focused on restoring the Sierra-Leone military, integrating former combatants and establishing frameworks to prevent future insurrection.
On April 18, 2000, Brigadier General Maxwell Khobe passed away. To honor his legacy, Nigeria named a major cantonment in Jo's after him.
What Tinubu is implementing today has been tried before. IBB tried the implementation of SAP. And after 4 years, it failed woefully. Bola Tinubu is implementing SAP 2.0 & it will end in tears. SAP is a program of the IMF. Listen to this & retweet for others. Know your history.
