"Nigeria Will Disintegrate Before Buhari's Very Eyes If..." - Femi Fani-Kayode Says
On
29th July 2016 CNN reported that "the Nigerian government is preparing
troops for a crackdown in the Niger Delta if peace talks fail".
This
is sad and ominous. As United States Senator Ted Cruz once said "the
light of truth is stronger than the terror of darkness".
It
follows that the biggest mistake that the Buhari administration can
possibly make is to attempt to "crack down" on the Niger Delta and kill
innocent civilians.
If this ever happens, for whatever reason,
it will set off a chain of events that will lead to the end of Nigeria
as we know it.
Nigeria will disintegrate before Buhari's very
eyes if any more innocent blood is shed and if the towns, creeks and
villages of the oil-producing states are shelled and reduced to rubble.
The
cause of the people of the Niger Delta, and indeed that of the Igbo
people of the eastern states, is just and their struggles and
aspirations are legitimate and reasonable.
Self-determination is
a right. It is a concept and principle that is universally accepted and
that has the backing of international law.
You do not threaten
and bomb those that seek to exercise that right: you treat them with
respect, decency and decorum and attempt to persuade them to stay.
This
is a point that is lost on President Buhari and those around him. The
Avengers are not Boko Haram: taking them on in the field of battle would
be a monumental error.
