In Iraq & Afghanistan where there are far more deadly terrorist attacks almost on a daily basis, there were general elections held not once, not twice and the people there elected their presidents and prime ministers despite the bomb attacks from Al-Qaeda and the Taliban.
Few days to the elections, the Nigerian dictator suddenly realizes that there is insecurity and some people have not collected their cards. So the Nigerians who are now refugees in Chad and Cameroon now will come back and collect their PVCs or INEC will go to refugee camps and give them or what? The Nigerian dictator who has been busy campaigning all over the place and abusing his main opponent just wakes up to realize that they want to destroy Boko Haram in six weeks even if they could not finish them in years?
So what stopped them from wiping out Boko Haram since or they are just seeing the security report now? So when he was campaigning, he did not know some LGAs are under Boko Haram? They were ready for a presidential debate but not a presidential election? So November, December, January, no one was calling for postponement but all of a sudden few days to the general elections, somebody wants to repeat what happened in 1993? Even Babangida fled to Egypt, he was disgraced out of office.
And the service chiefs have lost the respect of the people. We already know they are compromised and pot-bellied generals not worth a bullet so with or without them, this nation will move forward. I just want to let the Nigerian dictator know that if he insists on going against the will of the people, he will face the same thing dictators have always been facing since the beginning of time, from the era of Julius Caesar to Adolf Hitler to Hosni Mubarak. No dictator has ever won a fight against the people, and never will. -By the way, Jega will soon be addressing a press conference composed of local and international journalists.
