[Quran and Hadith @QuranAndHadithh]

Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) said:

“Whoever fights under a banner of folly, supporting Assabiyah (Tribalism, Racism, Nationalism) or getting angry for the sake of Assabiyah, he dies in a state of ignorance.”

Sunan Ibn Majah 3948

Feeling stuck in life? Do you keep going round in circles? Then you have to stop doing what you’re doing & take stock of your life. Reevaluate your priorities & shift your mindset. Only then can you get out of the repetitive rut you’re in. Seek your strength from the Almighty.

There is no contractor benefitting from any admin that will not support & defend such source of income especially at a time when businesses are collapsing for others. Since the business of every business is to remain in business, the likes of Adamu can sell their souls.

Irony best describes the action of our executives who debunk proper political procedures and embrace corruption. The puffed-up bravery of our armed forces which demonstrate their prowess on streets against unarmed military civilians while sponsored bandits

and terrorists take over the towns and cities is also another bitter irony. Likewise, the attitude of the general populace in condemning the virtuous while elevating the sly criminals is another sour satire.

For years now,it has become clear that the Nigerian system of governance is more or less a joke, as its democracy neither gives power nor liberty to the people. The innocent civilians are being blatantly denied their human rights, while those in power keep enriching themselves,

When the masses decide to unite and stand against the injustice and oppression by having peaceful protests, they are chased off the streets with bullets by security personnel who didn’t have the guts

to go to real battlegrounds. It could be a conspiracy though, and the hunter might as well be the same as the hunted in Nigeria’s ‘fight against terrorism’.

As for the workers who embark on strikes, they’re threatened with ‘No-Work-No-Pay’ or even dismissal. Therefore,

it’s becoming even harder to express grievances and having freedom of expression even though it’s supposed to be a ‘democratic’ government.

Nigeria is already being tagged a third-world country with low national development and definitely doesn’t need a corrupt government and

In Nigeria, it’s as if an excuse is sought to cause bloodshed for, in 2015, more than a thousand were killed by various inhuman ways just for a mere accusation of poking at an armed officer’s chest and ‘blocking his way’ in Zaria,

The so-called offence wasn’t investigated, nor were the culprits properly apprehended, giving even less credence to the already loose theory.

Instead, the armed officers open fire on the peaceful civilians, not only in the said vicinity but also at other

Another show of shamelessness is the attack of the June 12 protesters who only moved to exercise their rights and call for progressive change in the country. It’s a real pity that no security personnel were on hand to stop the kidnappings of numerous students and staff at the
