It's getting kind of messy. First the Sambo Dasuki and Buhari imbroglio – in which fair play (Buhari) won the day, and now this unworthy headline:
" Buhari appoints murderer of Sawo Wiwa to Customs post"
His hands are dirty but his heart is clean?
It looks like Chief Justice Ikhide will soon be rounding up all old military brass, to be summarily tried and executed for treasonable support for one coup or another. Will issue a warrant for their arrest. Line em all up. Jujuman Adepoju maybe, could help with some of his secret charms, help effect the desirable changes. (Mahatma Gandhi: "Be the change that you wish to see in the world."
The media vultures are hungry. It is the intention of some of Nigeria's commentators to keep President Buhari's feet close to the fire. Not that accountability (the mother of caution) is something that is required later, but having signalled that he ( like Pope, Archbishop, Chief Imam, Commander-in- chief more or less wants a cabinet of saints, of pious men – so, the media will hold him to his high standards - from which to fall is a most grievous sin. What to expect other than more skeletons coming out of the wardrobe?
Whomsoever President Buhari nameth will be subject to the most minutest scrutiny possible, even Archbishops (of local Pentecostals) – or revered Imams that he may name will all be subject to laser beams being focused on them, from the cradle to the latest moment…
The fact of the matter is that if you dig deep enough you'll find that everyone is connected to the past, even innocent bystanders are connected to the past. But the inter-connectedness of the black spider kalabule artists is on another level, a veritable web/cesspool of corruption.
I'll never forget that bank manager requesting that I give him half of my money, so that I could take it out in £ Sterling immediately
In the realm of Nigerian political personages, some of the vermin (for lack of a better word) some of the vermin are connected to past lootocracies…
Chidi, do y7ou agree?

Retired Colonel Ali, the newly appointed Nigerian Customs boss was part of the team that approved the murder of Ken Saro-Wiwa.Muhammadu Buhari's appointment of Col Ali as CG Customs is particularly insensitive and offensive and shows Buhari's callousness. Ali was part of the team that authorized the murder of the writer and activist Kenule Saro Wiwa. Let me just say this: Buhari is an evil man and any writer on his camp after this is an evil person. If you wink at this travesty, it will be your turn some day. What does the Association of Nigerian Authors think about this? Wow!PS.I wonder what Professor Wole Soyinka AND Professor Niyi Osundare think of Buhari appointing Sawo Wiwa's murderer to head Customs... SMH
