A Letter To Our Northern Youths - Culled From A Facebook Post. by Dhugal: 1:43pm On Nov 20, 2015 |
Dear Northern youths, Do you know why some of us don't blink anymore at the Boko haram activities and never talk about it? I cannot be crying more than the bereaved. I cringe everytime the "bomb goes boom" then I weep for the dead and move. The northern youths are the most blank people I know. My apologies to the few sensible ones first of all. Your number is being reduced drastically, under your watch boko haram and Fulani herdsmen snatched the first and the fourth most deadliest terror groups. Everybody blames you. Everybody calls you name. Your young's girls were carted away in the middle of the night in a ridiculous drama, your daughters and children are either being used as bomb detonators or being decimated by bombs. Your region is blessed with so much.you have the real gold in agriculture but your people are suffering most from malnutrition, when there is an outbreak of an epidemic it starts with you. Your leaders have been in power for over 36 years. The Nigerian state is 55 years mind you yet you are the poorest region. You have children who wake up in the morning and hit the road to beg ,yet you are not ashamed. You wanted power so much. It has been given back to you. You have had it for six months now guess who is suffering most You. The rich among you are very rich and powerful and hand you peanuts and you prostrate for them. They dash you crumbs and you rejoice. Ask those of your brothers who have left to other regions to make a living why they never come home unless it is to find a wife or do something. They go there and discover equity and fairness. The Igbos will never give you fish but the will teach you how to fish, the Yourbas will put you to shame with their hard work.The entire south region abhor poverty and injustices. Why won't you ask yourself " what are we doing wrong?? You have never for one day risen in anger against the bastardization of your land. Your land is flowing with blood. Blood that will one day speak against you. You have not asked yourself, why am I not as fearless as my brothers from other region? You see us attack our own and they shake in fear, you never speak against yours because you think it is their sole right to be powerful, while you remain impoverished. Have you ever asked yourself if this folks can give me 1k there must be 100k, why don't you want that 100k?? Your fellow youths were blown to smithereens days ago because somebody was sharing ordinary five hundred naira and youths with potentials were killed. Are you not angry When will you protest against injustices, poverty, neglect and senseless deaths?? When I ask you But a gathering of small brained folks under the umbrella of a ridiculous name has protested against the Biafra youths who are simply asking for freedom of one of their own , perceived injustice to their region and the freedom to leave Nigeria . Not a bomb has been dropped, not a single bullet has been fired. That mammoth crowd has been protesting peacefully for two weeks now. Yet you with the Iroko tree in your eyes want to remove the lid from their eyes and you wonder why they do not want to be associated with you? Ask yourself again what the oil has against water?? Wake up!!!! Do the right thing!!! Take the shackles of your feet's!!!! Fight for your future!! Stand up for yourselves!!! Then may be we can talk about the one Nigeria project. For now DONT RAIN ON THEIR PARADE!!! https://mobile.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10153268020337914&id=521527913&p=10&refid=52&_ft_=qid.6219201693591554074%3Amf_story_key.5768543995141739011 4 Likes 4 Shares |

How I wish the Op goes to BBC Hausa radio station to read this classic piece to the hearing of the listeners. The average Northerner is an illiterate, I am sure most of them are not on facebook because they have been brainwashed to believe that anything from the west is antiIslamic( served in Kaduna State).Northners are only bound by religion and tribe, every other thing is called oppression of the rich on the poor. If anybody wants to see the effect of poverty in Nigeria, he should visit the North, until the oppressed in that region cry out against the injustice will they have true freedom in every sense of the world. 1 Like |
