Lend me your ears. Please! Anyone who believes, even for a millisecond, that what the rapers of our commonwealth plan for January 2027 are general elections has already lost tragically. Such a loser will be served this mocking injunction of “Go to court!” But on the Benches all across the nation’s courthouses, the betrayed petitioner against a stolen mandate will find, not brave and honest adjudicators, but the carcasses of sneering tramplers of the law who, with election riggers, are like six and half-a-dozen. The aggregated submissions of the very best Senior Advocates of Nigeria can never and will never move them to give justice a chance. The odds are stacked against seekers of truth in contention with all Four Estates of the Realm mired in sin and corruption. It bears repeating that what the skin-headed, potbellied, knock-kneed and collapsible despoilers of the communal pond have in store for long-suffering Nigerians in January is nothing other than electoral abracadabra. The more you look, the less you see.
It happened in 2023. The fellow grandstanding today as the Oga at the top knows as much as his coterie of unrestrained recidivists are aware that he did not win that year’s national ballot. He is praying to his god of greed and grasping that the citizens will again take their eyes off the ball for another electoral heist. There are three compelling reasons why they are conjoined with rigging. One, it is in their DNA. Even without an opposition in their presidential primary ballot, the umpire used other than arithmetic to count the votes – right in front of cameras: 1, 2, 3, 300, 4001, 4002, 5002, 145000! In their primaries for all levels of elections, the fraud went on, in front of cameras, whereas election riggers in times past tried not to be caught. Two, because of their crippling non-performance, they know that in any free, fair, and credible ballot, they are guaranteed to fail abysmally. Three and to their heart failure, is the contingency of their ouster unleashing gargantuan indices of corruption, a hundredth of which will impact any ear that hears it with the destructive force of a fragmentation grenade.
