The rate at which tyranny is championing Democracy
in this country is alarming. One is obliged to ask about who will end up in the
peril that is brought about by this tyranny. Posterity is definitely not going
to be fair with tyrant, but the populace that condones tyrannicalness takes the
largest part of the blame, because, the only path of justice against tyranny is
to speak out as a dissident.
Adolf Hitler did likewise in Germany, he wanted to
subdue the world, especially, anybody that shares different opinion from
Nazism, the same path this present administration is toeing, we all know what
ended the Nazist man of history, Bunker death! But it did not only stop there,
Germany was nowhere to be found for some decades in the world politics.
Can someone tell Nigerian tyrant to be fair not only
to the present, but also to the futurity. The uncanny charges against fellow
Nigerians is getting bothersome, the world is yarning for the emancipation of
Nnadi Kanu who was already freed by competent court of law, Sambo Dasuki was
likewise granted bail, but Federal Government denied him of his constitutional
right, Dokpesi and others have become victims of this tyranny.
Lest we go to far into this dictatorship, Nigerians should
fight to win back the rule of law that was once thriving in this country. The
unguarded witch hunting of Peoples Democratic Party's Spokesperson is the least
and nefarious of this vicious movement. As usual, Federal Government wanted to
silent all the oppositions who were constitutionally recognised. Olisah Metuh
of PDP is a critic that is passionate about the young thriving Democracy in
Nigeria, he is meticulously challenging the hegemony and insincerity of the
party at the helms of affair, instead of them listening to the plight of
Nigerians, Federal Government ordered its opposition witch hunting arm, known
as EFCC to harass him. You don't need to be a PDP member to support Justice.
Just like a philosopher said, silence at the scene
of injustice is tantamount to criminality. Nigerians regardless of our
affiliations need to stand tall and demand for Justice. When Adolf Hitler
tyrannically led Germany, many were scared and people refused to speak out, we
all remember that not only Hitler suffered the ill fate, Germans in their
entirety suffered a huge defeat cum carnage.
Attempt to overpower rule of law must be challenge
by every well meaning Nigerians, we should all endeavour to stand in solidarity
with Olisha Metuh, this political persecution is far from being healthy for our
young Democracy. Nigeria's potential makes her a leader of a continent, we
should stand for fairness so that we would all not be ridiculed.
If you stand for Olisah Metuh, you stand for
fairness, If you stand for Fairness, you stand for Justice, if you stand for
Justice, you stand for a prosperous Nigeria. With Olisa Metuh I stand.
