Ngige and July 10 uncommon courage

That stern picture of the late AIG Raphael Ige, commanding more than two hundred and fifty fully armedofficers and men of the Nigeria Police, laying siege to the Government House and the State Assembly refuses to vanish from memory. That enveloping silence of death, amidst marching shrills by those gun-totters, who demanded resignation still scares. Those movie-like drills of shining metals, pointing at different direction of the Government House and ordering all in sight, wouldn’t go away.

Therefore, a deserving commendation goes first to Ndi-Anambra whose support was the main backbone for the sustenance of liberation . How can one forget those unending months of vigil, mounted by the people on Enugu- Onitsha Express in eternal vigilance over their freedom? A lesson from an introspection here is for all office holders to place the people first. Self-love makes no hero. Ngige could have easily colluded with his oppressors and leave the people as losers.

Nigerians recently saw James Faleke hurl frivolous allegations against you on the floor of the House in sheer abuse of parliamentary privilege. His actions were understandable only if one can see through the straws he was desperately clutching for allies who must remain untouchable, even if the NSITF collapses.
