If there is anything that is clear is, how this government has failed the test of adhering to the rule of law. The current government holds a record number of contempt of court that is unmatched by any administration since 1999. #Nigeria
In 1999 I was 24, I'm mindful of political events since then. I'v never experienced this level of impunity by the state, and citizens have now resorted to 'self help' bcz no confidence in the justice system. Leaders disregard the same laws they want ordinary citizens to abide by.
The citizens that were rounded up, arrested and detained in the northeast alone are in their thousands, not hundreds, majority were NEVER taken to court, hundreds were either summarily executed or died in detention. No one cared because they are mostly poor villagers.
Statistics, as inaccurate as it can be in our clime, will not only prove my argument, but understate the problem. The violent implosion we are seeing today, across #Nigeria is as a consequence of the breakdown of law and order.
My tweets is not about Buhari, it's abt #Nigeria and the future of our youngsters. Nigeria is bigger than any individual, those who want to reduce governance to Buhari will be counted among his failures. Our country is a mess, you don't have to travel to know that, we are a mess.
