Season's greetings to my teeming readers. Let me still serve you a morsel of politics even as we celebrate the joyous Yuletide season. The mood isn't cheery because of the horror of senseless bloodletting by the Boko Haram insurgents, but life must go on, in the hope that things will get better in the New Year; even if they seem otherwise at the moment.
Our politicians are self-serving and uncaring, but we are a resilient people who always ride out of every storm.
The noisy campaigns of the Presidential nominations of the two major parties- the ruling PDP and the APC, appear to have eclipsed the nation's top headliners of 2014, such as the Chibok girls abduction, and the random seizure of territories by the rampaging Boko Haram terrorists. Also submerged in the nomination
hoopla are the impeachment of Governor Murtala Nyako and the defection of the five PDP governors that triggered it; Ayo Fayose's upstaging of APC's Kayode Fayemi in the Ekiti Governorship elections, the dramatic fall of crude oil price and its implications for our oil-dependent economy, and the recruitment exercise that left scores of young graduate job-seekers dead from stampedes.
All of these and other major headline news of
2014 may soon be a distant memory, but we
can't easily forget the failure of the national
soccer team and defending champions, the
Super Eagles, to qualify for the African Cup of
Nations, the Air Force plane that was shot down
by the Boko Haram insurgents and one of the
pilots reportedly beheaded. Indeed, with its
gruesome operations getting to new levels of
cruelty, Boko Haram stretched our military to the
limit, and exposed the decay and dismal state of
our armed services. That was what came to light
in 2014, but must never be allowed to continue
in 2015.
The Ebola Virus Disease, EVD, came and was
defeated, but not until after claiming the lives of
some victims including Dr. Stella Ameyo
Adadevoh and other patriots; rather than plan
how to prevent future resurgence, the APC and
the ruling PDP were bickering over whom to
credit with the arrest of the disease. Of course,
2014 produced its fair share of scandals and
corruption in high places too numerous to
mention.
Sad to recall, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor's private jet
which was involved in the cash for arms scandal,
was a major headline news about which I wrote a
commentary, which provoked CAN's response in
pedestrian vulgarity, which I declined to
nobilitate with a retort. The pain for Nigerians is
the impunity with which perpetrators loot the
treasury under the watch of President Goodluck
Jonathan.
President Jonathan and his strategists should be
having a big laugh after a 'hard-won' battle that
finally handed His Excellency an unprecedented
sole candidacy of the ruling People's Democratic
Party, PDP, in the 2015 presidential elections,
with a loud declaration at a rally on November
11, 2014. Gen. Mohammadu Buhari (Rtd) is
flying the flag of the APC, having clinched the
party's ticket in closely fought primaries.
The implication of Dr. Jonathan's declaration on
that day (11-11-2014)has occultic significance.
When the number is repeated, it takes a greater
ritualistic intensity. In this case, we have
11-11-11, because when you add the date
11-11-2014 as a year together, you arrive at 11
also. This is in consonance with occultic
numerology.
In the pre-natural world, the number 11 is a
powerful occultic number: it represents
judgment, destruction and death of man. Each
digit in the 11-11-2014 date, when added
together, viz: 1+1+1+1+2+0+1+4, you get 11.
That's why the declaration was done on
11/11/2014, which is the highest level of occultic
numerology. This sacred number in the occultic
world demonstrates an appeasement of the
powers of darkness to favour the supplicant. The
name of satan in Latin is LVX. L is 50, V is 5 and
X is 10. When you add that together, you get 65.
When you add 6 + 5, you get 11. Satan's
number is 11.
The question is; was this declaration orchestrated
by occultic considerations, or is it a mere
coincidence? Since 11 represents; judgment,
destruction and death of man, can we
extrapolate from the experiences of President
Goodluck Jonathan's administration so far that
number 11 has been prevalent in our nation?
Has there been spiritual judgment, has there
been destruction and death on a large scale?
You, be the judge.
If the Church of Jesus Christ appreciates this
understanding, they'll be more reluctant to
gravitate in the direction of President Jonathan,
even though the leaderships of CAN and PFN
have made a subtle endorsement of his
candidacy. President Jonathan does not belong
to the Davidic genealogy; he belongs to the
house of Saul and invokes the spirit of Jeroboam.
He swears by the Lord and Malcham. He that
hath an ear let him hear.
Fixing all the fault lines of 2014 must begin with
the management of the usual post-election crisis
which is the hallmark of every transition in
Nigeria. Whatever the outcome of the
Presidential elections, the polity would likely
quake as the vanquished beat the drums of war
against the backdrop of grandstanding by the
victors. If we have embraced a paradigm shift as
I have suggested, Nigeria would have gone a
different way.
Despite all of that, and the likely unpleasant fall-
out of the forthcoming general elections, Nigeria
will survive as usual. Expect threats of war, but
surely, the Nigerian political class is too timid to
roll out the tanks for battle, because, nobody
would like to put his life on the line over a lost
election.
Unfortunately, our gullible youths do not know
this. They are usually the canon fodders who
bear the brunt of the violence. The political elites
use them to unleash on any post-election
conflict, while the politicians and their cronies
escape to safe havens where they enjoy their
loot. Be that as it may, the voters have the final
choice to make in these crucial elections.
