Month: October 2024

Human suffering is akin to Africa. There is nowhere else, in our modern world today where economic and political suffering is more pronounced than in Africa. The level of man-initiated pain and catastrophic suffering inflicted on the masses by the political elites is on an unimaginable scale. October 2024 marks the fourth anniversary of the protest against police brutality directed towards Nigerian youths. No doubt, the day remains one of the most horrific scenes I have ever witnessed in my whole lifetime. It was bothersome for me to see the Nigerian government turn a simple protest into a mayhem of bloodshed in what we now know as the Lekki shooting massacre. The dastardly act was perpetrated by the Nigerian government, through a military special operation on innocent Nigerian youths.
