An open letter to Hassan Kontagora
Mr. Hassan Kontagora Hotline Magazine Kaduna, Nigeria
RE: Plot Against North
Sir, I can assure you that your schizophrenic paranoia has no basis, at least not within the parameters of sanity and reason. You and your comrades might be better served by trying to uplift the downtrodden almajiris (or whatever they are called) and other "bums" in the so-called north. The Yoruba have moved on, as we have got bigger fish to fry than to waste time with backward and regressive individuals like yourself and members of the northern cabal. We are all over the world (100 million strong) and have been aptly described as "the black jews" because we are resolved, united, committed and dedicated to the guiding principles as laid down through generations by our great father, the glorious Ancient Egyptian, Oduduwa! You may buy some of our "leaders" with your blood money, but you see, unlike the Ndigbo, you CANNOT buy the collective Yoruba Pride, dignity, integrity, resolve, determination and sophistication, no matter how hard you try! Why? Because we are a grassroots people, even Chief Awolowo knew the importance of not toying with the veracity of the Yoruba grassroots. So go ahead, rig the elections (as you have always done) in 2003, put Orji Uzor Kalu (that petty trader turned Chief Executive) as President or anyone for that matter! The Yoruba don't care about the Presidency of that moribund edifice. After all, in the land of the blind (which Nigeria is right now), the one eyed man is king! We will simply watch and once we've had enough, we will simply say "no mas", and I encourage you to go and study history and find out what usually happens when the Yoruba, along with our masses have had enough... It is amazing how you can be so obsessed with the destruction of a group of people who have never bore any ill-feelings towards you or any other Nigerian nationality for that matter. Sir, don't you get it? You can never win, as evil cannot and will never prevail over good! Take a look in the mirror, at yourself! For once, tell yourself and yourselves the truth. You know what the truth is? You are your own worst enemies! Rather than seek the improvement of the lives of your people, you'd much rather amputate their hands, legs and God knows whatever other body part simply for stealing a donkey! Heck, I would steal a donkey myself if I lived under the prevailing conditions in the core north! You'd much rather flog a teenage girl for having a child out of wedlock while your leaders, like Babangida are renowned sodomites, drug barons and murdering, thieving bastards who continue to walk around shameless to the core, with their ill-gotten wealth! The whole world is laughing at you. You have all betrayed the legacy of great Nigerian (not just northern as they transcended ethnicity) leaders such as the late Sir. Ahmadu Bello, Abubakar Tafawa-Balewa and Murtala Mohammed. Shame on you for propagating a spirit of discord and disunity among a people, whom although have always had their differences, have managed to live together in harmony for so long! I will leave you with a "prophecy" today... the downtrodden masses in the north will one day rise up against you and members of the corrupt and morally bankrupt northern cabal, and that will be the day that the Lord hath made and all shall witness it and rejoice. Mark my word! Before I go, if you are really serious about taking on the so-called "ngbati media", you might first want to try and pass your high-school certificate exams, particularly the subject of English. In the alternative, I will suggest you stick to the BBC Hausa service!
