Credits to muhammed ishaq.....An Open Letter by a Northerner to Northerners...
The Northerners, you have been chasing a rat while your house is on
fire. The North is already on fire,instead of making
effort to extinguish the fire but you keep
dissipating your energy and voices on accusing the
South and Jonathan of igniting the fire for you
while the fire is incessantly devouring you and
destroying your house. If it is true that Jonathan
and the South are the ones who kindled this fire on
your house that means Jonathan and the South
are your enemies. Between you and your enemies
who do you think should extinguish this fire? Are
you expecting them to extinguish the fire for you?
You have to extinguish the fire before pointing an
accusing finger to anyone. The Northern leaders
have to put the North in order but they failed
thereby continue apportioning the blame on
Jonathan. I am not protecting Jonathan here but
the truth must be told. The Boko Haram exist
since the Obasanjo's era and it keep growing
through the Yar'adua's and it continues growing
today. The Northern leaders including the
traditional rulers are the most selfish people I
know. All what they care is their family and
immediate relatives. The traditional rulers, ranging
from the Sultan of Sokoto to Ward Head (Mai
anguwa), are usually apportioning traditional titles
to criminal politicians and richers with the
expectation of contracts, employment opportunities
and favours to their close ones. If the employment
opportunity comes, they always give it to their
close ones. They don't care about the youth in the
region. They always hope that their children will be
educated and rule the region forever. These three
category of persons are the ones responsible for
the Northern predicament. They are: the politicians
of the region, the traditional rulers and religious
preachers who answer the name
"scholars".
