He said the government of Nigeria is making monsters out of Nigerians and that the bomb being built in the country will soon explode with nowhere to run to.
Read his post below;
This was probably the saddest picture I saw on the internet last week and waited to hear the Governor’s reaction to the killing of unarmed civilians during a demolition exercise, but I am still waiting. This is a huge problem in Nigeria, we keep mute at the death of people and that’s why Jungle justice prevails. No prosecution, No statement and the family, friends and well wishers of the victims grow with vengeance in their hearts.
The Government of this Nation make monsters out of his people and when the day of reckoning comes, they will want to demonize them. Hmmmmm. The bombs we are building in this Nation will someday explode and we will have no where to run. Imagine the kind of seed they have sown in this little girl. She might forgive, but forgetting will be very hard.
Our Government need to do more and the citizens have to be more vocal. Silence, I maintain is not always golden. Our National time bomb is ticking and our President is not so diplomatic in his statements, issuing threats in a volatile situation instead of been persuasive. Just my thoughts. God help us all.

Nigerian Musician Timi Dakolo, who is an Arsenal fan has just spoken out against Frenchman Arsene Wenger saying he has run out of ideas.
The singer said that he was just tired and pained and asked his followers- ‘if you are Sanchez….would you stay at Arsenal’?
His latest criticism comes just days after Arsene Wenger claims Alexis Sancez loves Arsenal and will not go through the motions if he stays.
Timi wrote;
“ALLOW ME TO POUR MY HEART OUT..
1.ARSENE WENGER IS SUCCESSFULLY RUINING OUR CLUB.
2.) HE HAS RUN OUT OF IDEA..
3) NO SERIOUS TEAM WILL HAVE A DANNY AS THEIR TOP STRIKER IN A MATCH OF SUCH IMPORTANCE.. LEAVING YOUR 50M POUNDS RATED STRIKER ON THE BENCH..
4.) THE PLAYERS ATTITUDE SHOWS THEY HAVE NO FEAR OF BEING BENCHED..
5. XHAKA IS TO ME THE MOST INDISCIPLE DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER.. ALWAYS VERY BUSY DOING NOTHING.. ALWAYS GIVING AWAY THE BALL IN DANGEROUS PLACES..NEVER PROTECTING THE BACK 3.
6. A COACH THAT PLAYS PEOPLE OUT OF POSITION AND EXPECT THEM TO DO WELL..MADNESS
7. WENGER DID A BAD JOB LAST YEAR AND GOT A 2M POUND RAISE AND 2 YEAR CONTRACT AS A REWARD…
8. NO COMPETITION FOR PLACES .. SO THE PLAYERS ARE COMFORTABLE..
9. YOU HAVE A SEAD AND PREFER A MONREAL..
10. TEAMs THAT ARE WAY BETTER ARE FORTIFYING THEIR TEAM .. AND THE MANAGER IS THERE BELIEVING IN HIS TEAM OF RAMSEY,HOLDING,XHAKA,WALCOTT ETC.
I AM JUST TIRED AND PAINED.. TELL ME IF YOU ARE SANCHEZ.. WOULD YOU STAY AT ARSENAL?
