Nigeria as led by the maladministration of the glorified party of treasury looters, All Progressives Congress, APC has been in the most deplorable, and poverty-stricken position irrespective of the abundance of wealth that, nature had bestowed upon the country.
In 2015, when the APC came into power with President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, Nigerians thought that their messiahs had come to liberate them from the shackles of struggles with whatever challenges they were bedeviled with particularly in the area of finance through the administration of good governance but unfortunately, they were oblivious of the fact that their nightmare was only starting.
Already, five years down the drain in the maladministration of Buhari and Osinbajo, the country is yet to witness any significant impact so far. This assertion, of course sounds or appears bogus and ridiculous to the few marauders benefiting from the largesse of the government but to the teeming masses out there, they will definitely, and vehemently, curse anyone who mistakenly wishes them even the minutest experience of the current leadership in Nigeria.

Prior to their assumption of leadership in 2015, they had hubristically claimed that they would fix the country, and bring her fully to an unprecedented economic and infrastructural development.
With their empty promises, bogus claims, and high-profile propaganda which were championed by Obama’s former chief campaign strategist, Mr David Axelrod, they deluded many Nigerians to believe in them including the writer with their, ‘change mantra’ and eventually kicked out Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and his administration.
Admittedly, Jonathan failed to meet up with the expectations of Nigerians who had believed that he would continue performing exceptionally well just like his principal of blessed memory, late President Umaru Yar’dua, however in fairness to Jonathan’s administration, his worst area of governance, in all certainty, can never be compared to any seemingly best area of Buhari/Osinbajo’s maladministration.
They mocked and took Jonathan’s administration to the cleaners over insecurity but it was shortly after APC saddled the leadership of Nigeria that insecurity hit a crescendo, and Fulani herdsmen became the fourth deadliest terrorist group according to the Global Terrorism Index report, this was due to their incessant and malicious killings of unarmed civilians in the Nigerian communities particularly the southern part of the country.
On the other hand, Boko Haram members have been equally busy having a field day slaughtering both Nigerian civilians and the soldiers. The deadly activities of Boko Haram continues to skyrocket till the terrorist organisation developed the nerve and machinery to chase the inhabitants of communities out severally.
With all the nefarious, and cruel activities of these deadly terrorist groups, Nigerian government led by APC keeps shielding them.
It got to a point that Amnesty International whose reporters had been witnessing the countless deaths by the terrorist groups, made an expository and damnable report on Boko Haram and the failure of Nigerian government in tackling the pathetic condition but Nigerian government denied the expose` of Amnesty International, and nearly kicked the organisation out of Nigeria.
On the failure of the economy in the country, the American billionaire and technology entrepreneur, Bill Gates pointed out their irresponsibilities as well as colossal failure when he came to Nigeria in the first tenure of Buhari/Osinbajo.
As expected, when he departed, they lambasted the multibillionaire, and labelled him a clueless college dropout who had no right whatsoever to advise them but they being greedy only wanted his usual financial support which was the only thing they desperately desired, and obviously was the reason for hosting him then later, they would as always divert whatever funds he intended to drop for their own selfish benefits.
Aside from perpetrating fraud of the highest magnitude, the only thing the callous and clueless leadership of Nigeria now is good at is to successfully fight any good voice of reason in the country probing into their affairs.
The likes of Omoyele Sowore and Deji Adeyanju had been brutalised, and incarcerated in the most unfair and unjustifiable manners for simply speaking out against the ills of the APC led presidential government.
A country that operates a responsible and responsive administration will gladly accept constructive criticism in order to take an appraisal of their leadership but not Buhari/Osinbajo’s government.
In all honesty, these men parade as if they are doing Nigerians a huge favour by their clueless leadership.
Because of their cluelessness, the country has plunged into lawlessness, state of anarchy and of course, the worst conditions of poverty, where an abundantly blessed country is now being described as the poverty capital of the world where majority of her citizens live on less than $1 daily.
In addition to all that, nepotism and looting of the country’s treasury, clearly with impunity by public officials have become the norm in APC led government.
Nigeria can be better described now as the Federal Republic of Fulani because she has lost the credibility of those things that actually make her a federation.
Leadership positions in Nigeria have turned into monarchy where a King or Queen reigns majestically, and supremely over her subjects without any form of accountability or responsiblity.
The country’s leadership tells very cheap lies always and often peddled by Southern stooges like Femi Adesina, the Chief Propagandist of Buhari/Osinbajo’s maladministration and Lie Mohammed, the Liar-In-Chief of the Fulani Republic of Nigeria.
The most pathetic thing about the actions of Adesina and Mohammed is that they are publicly taking sides with their Fulani masters against the noble interests of their own Southern people.
The Southern Nigeria produces the wealth used in running the country but pragmatically, there’s nothing to show that such wealth comes from the place because the Fulani oligarchy in collaboration with their Southern stooges are milking the benefits accruing from the resources in that region.
Shamelessly, the aforementioned men whose consciences had long been severed by wickedness, and for economic gratification proudly defend the Fulani Republic of Nigeria where all the key ministries are manned by the Fulani people while their own Southern people are given crumbs except just few exceptions in the most technical areas like Central Bank of Nigeria or Technology where high level of intellect and professionalism are duly required of the Governor, and Minister respectively.
The Fulani oligarchy, running the affairs of Nigeria know quite well that only Southerners particularly from the Igbo speaking region can successfully handle such positions, and help the Fulani oligarchy cover their tracks smoothly without them getting into obvious trouble subsequently.
With these sorts of anomalies reigning supreme in Nigeria, it is quite clear but sadly, that the country is sitting on a time bomb, and time is ticking so fast.
If adequate measures are not drastically taken expeditiously to resolve the anomalies, and restructure the country, the eventual collapse of the country most definitely, will be very terrible to say, the very least.
