But first let me put a sample draft of my life article on law
23rd October 2020
THE
BLOOD ON THE TOLL GATE
Dear Uncle Chijioke, I
write to calm your fears and your pain about the events that took place on the
20th of October, 2020 at the Lekki Toll Plaza in Lagos. Uncle, I lay
on my bed since that night, weak, crying, and feeling beaten. The country I had
hope for has broken us.
The worst mistake of
our leaders was not the death of soldiers uncared for to be killed by
terrorists, or the killing of innocent people by officers of the defunct SARS,
hence, the #EndSARS protest. The worst and gravest mistake was to shoot, maim
and kill innocent protesters who chose to peacefully protest to liberate
Nigeria.
Their gravest mistake
was to kill peaceful protesters who were warding off hoodlums to protest for
better security.
Their evil was to kill
protesters who deeply love this country
that
they fed policemen during the entire duration of the protest and even made a groundnut seller wealthy.
Their mistake was to
put out the lights, turn off and remove the CCTV cameras and rain live bullets
on Nigerians who were on the Nigerian soil, holding the Nigerian flag and
singing the National Anthem.
Uncle Chijioke, I am as
broken as I am in tears.
To topple the killings
with insult, the
President and Commander in Chief chose to come to national TV and deliver
threats.
Uncle, the President
said we should come to the table to discuss these issues, well, I have good
news for him personally, Nigeria must grow out of the shackles of bad and evil
government. There is a righteous battle already for a united and better
Nigeria.
People have given their
best, Falz, Runtown, Rudeboy, Tiwa Savage, Aisha Yesufu, Savvy Rinnu and
millions of Nigerians are at their best including you. Therefore, I trust God more
than ever for a break through now.
Uncle, with the above, said, I have a struggle God has given me and I will push it till something
happens. The problem of Nigeria can only be solved by an amendment of the
highest law of the land, which is the constitution, to include better criteria
for the appointment and tenure of the Attorney General of the states and
federation.
Uncle, I will prove to
you that the problems of Nigeria bother on almost, if not entirely on the
powers of the Attorney General, in a series of letters I will write to you.
I will also be
mentioning some persons that I respect in these issues, not because i crave any
attention for myself but because the blood on the toll gate not only
cries for vengeance or justice but for a better Nigeria
individually and collectively.
