" At the 50th birthday celebration of the Publisher of the Leadership newspaper, Mr. Sam Nda-Isaiah yesterday, sounds of despondence, hopelessness and failed expectations rang loud as the former Defence Minister, General Theophilus Yakubu Danjuma, declared openly that the nation had become another Somalia.
He said: "The Somalianization of Nigeria nation is taking place right now. And for those of us from the North, I say it here that the North is on fire. Let us tell ourselves the truth and stop deceiving ourselves, the Chief Security Officer of every state is the governor, but I ask all of us here, where are the governors of the northern states that the region keeps burning and nothing seems to be done. The North has failed just like the entire nation."
"Borno State as an instance has failed completely. Jigawa State has failed also and worst of all, Kano of all places is about to fail. So, where exactly are we going? We hear and see multi-million naira fences erected around Government Houses, but what about the citizens? Where is their security"? he asked.
This is so true, wat about the poor masses, who will protect us? i remember telling someone yesterday that the people (Professors incusive who lost their lives are real people,), not just some nobody, these were children and parents trying to better their lot, let pray for our country.
