"I'm sad being a Nigeria.
"I don't care if all the Igbos die so long Lagos is just here...that was the worst ten minutes i have had so far in my life.I took my innocent self out for a much needed exercise; soccer,
something i enjoy doing. Perhaps my only crime was finding myself
waiting for my set beside someone who do not know am Igbo.
I won't recourse to boring you and annoying myself by recounting all i heard. For ones own sanity, you need not argue nor discuss with some people. This time, i did none of those but condemned by conditions to helplessly listen to an apparent mad dog costumed in human flesh.
People rationalize evil, they baptize it, they give them nomenclature in order to suit their narratives. The most heart tearing fact of this is that at the course of rationalizing evil, right or wronging atrocities, we let our conscience die, we allow it to condone the massacre of fellow humans, we say through our actions that inhumane acts are good and acceptable because it is not your people. The consequence: we legalize terror, albeit unwritten, but it will turn one day to feast on us and our kinsmen.
It is sad being a Nigerian. Humanity, for whatever it is, conscience and all qualities of empathy, is dead to Nigerians and perhaps never had an abode here.
May the soul of the departed find rest and solace in wherever that commences after here.
The crisis in the South East have been condemned over and over again, there will be no justification to the bloodshed in the region. We all should work and contribute in our own ways to ensure there is vindication through discovering and establishing veritable and everlasting solution to these agitations hence informing eternal order, peace and justice.
