Before we do justice to this matter of Bola Tinubu's illicit drug conviction in the United States of America, we show first purge of ourselves of emotions and hysteria.
We should also purge ourselves of prejudices.
This means that we should approach the matter with an open mind, obtain a wide range of information on the matter and sit down to analyze(assuming we have the capacity)the information obtained and consequently arrive at a conclusion that would be beyond every reasonable doubts.
Most of the viewpoints I read and hear on this matter are infested with anger, hate, emotions and hysteria.
We even sometimes call on "the international community" to step in.
The same "international community" who sometimes prop up terror and illicit drug kingpins as heads of government in Africa and Latin America in furtherance of their "national Interests".
Thank you for your time.
