Boko Haram has grown beyond those who planted that proverbial okro tree. Those who let out these mad dogs out in the first instance should wait for their turns, not the Emirs.

ReplyDeleteThe is the fruit of deliberate silence, They think they are distracting Jonathan, but they end up destroying thier own lives . Had they spoken up against the insurgents and support government efforts to weed them out maybe today he might sitll be alive.A big lesson for those Northern elders who support insurgency by thier silence

ReplyDeleteWhat it takes for evil to continue is goodness saying nothing. Evil can never triumph over gud, any success recorded by evil over gud is on a temprorary basis. We have seen snake charmers being bitten by dia snakes. Could this be a prologue or an epilogue? Time shall tell. We are waiting and watching.
