“Will Soludo realize that the people are victims of two elephants fighting or will both parties carry out their threats irrespective of the consequences?”
BY TUNDE ASAJU
Just a minute.
What’s the Soludo game plan? He wants Onitsha market opened tomorrow. Meanwhile, the murderous Biafrauds are probably oiling their guns ready to strike anywhere, not necessarily at the market…their order is – sit at home! So, if you are not at home, you may die.
Soludo does not have the capacity to protect every inch of Onitsha or Anambra from the masked murderers. So, he is simply making the market people unwilling victims of heartless killers.
If the market is closed Monday, Soludo says he will lock it down for longer until he eventually demolish it.
I see the people between the rock and a hard place. If they come out, some will die. If they stay away, they lose their stalls.
Who gets the plots if Soludo decides to obliterate one of the biggest markets south of the Niger? I hope it’s not friends or officials of the government.
It’s less than 24-hours to lockdown and Soludo is staring at the clock. Can his order convince the IPOB bloodhounds to sheath their swords in favour of the people they claim to be fighting for, or would they carry out their threats? Will Soludo realize that the people are victims of two elephants fighting or will both parties carry out their threats irrespective of the consequences?
Only time will tell. At this rate, someone should tell Soludo that there is always life after government house.
I come in peace as a meddlesome interloper. I am an Abia in-law but I have friends in Anambra. Routing for peace.
