To pull at the lion’s tail is a dangerous escapade that could claim one’s life. This is because, the lion is a dangerous carnivore; greatly feared by both humans and animals.
Metaphorically, stating the hard truths in some quarters could amount to pulling at a lion’s tail. This is because, those whose exploitative maneuvering the truth is about to reveal, may not like or want it.
In consequence, they will do all they could to stop the truth from being told. And by any means available.
The issue at stake is Nigeria and her numerous problems.
From the so-called independence till date, problems of all natures have bedeviled the nation. All sorts of political forms and reforms have been tested or tried, but to no avail.
From presidential to statocracy/ khakistocracy, from statocracy to democracy. None has solved the nation’s packages of problems.
Under the load of these problems, criticisms, accusations and disparagement have become the order of the day.
The Northerners have ruled several years, both as soldiers and civilians. The Yorubas are currently on the seat. The Igbos have never smelled the seat.
In short, rumour has it that there is a document at the nation’s seat of power, stating that an Igbo man will never rule in Nigeria.
In consequence, the Igbos have cried and lamented of marginalization in many things in the land, but to no avail.
But whether that rumour is true or false, let it be noted that it is only the Southeasterners who will liberate Nigeria from her current and other political problems.
For instance, when Dr. Ebele Goodluck Jonathan was the President of Nigeria, what happened? Likewise, if any other southerner that will take over the mantle of leadership in this country.
This is not to brag; the Igbos are naturally ahead in lots of ramifications. The proofs and records are there. Even at international levels.
Therefore, if Nigeria’s problems can be resolved once and for all, give an Igbo man a chance to rule Nigeria.
