Good morning all. What can I ask this morning when I know what is going on in the land? When people see me, they think I am a very strong person emotionally, they will not know that I cry at every little thing that signposts tragedy. This is why I have been talking about strategy remodeling. I knew it was going to affect me if anything should happen to anyone of you, and those who are in the Frontline and even any of my children who may also be part of this. Eventually it happened. I couldn’t sleep throughout the night. I was feeling so sad, wondering why we are going through this carnage to achieve a national rebirth; wondering why soldiers would transform protests to war; wondering why we negate the enterprise of creation and GOD’s industrious effort to create man by not ascribing value to human life; wondering why we turn life to the air inside a balloon that we can burst with a pin as if the blood in us does not make a difference; wondering why we think life should be defined by the worthlessness of our present existence as if there is no hope of glory in our tomorrow; wondering why leaders are heartless and feel nothing for the dregs of the society as if most of them have never passed this poverty route before; wondering about the dignity of existential utility and vanity of humanity; wondering why we die before the coming of our death; wondering why those who were killed yesterday had to lose their lives to the guns their parents pay tax to purchase for their security; wondering why we have to die to be governed well when other countries do it as a matter of natural obligation to their citizens; wondering what GOD will do next for this nation for our profanities. I am wondering if I will not one day wander into a wonderland that we shall call a new Nigeria. But when? But how? GOD, I am just wandering in my inner space.
