The holy book also said that one needs to remove the log on one\u2019s eyes before talking about a spec on another\u2019s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf elections can be wantonly manipulated which brought about the emergence of the present government in Nigeria then what moral justification does such government have to question similar actions such as the military coup in other countries?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA coup is a coup whether by the military or in a democracy, otherwise, how does one explain a situation where the most popular candidate with the supposedly highest number of votes cast in an election is denied the pecks of his popular support by another candidate whose purported victory was aided by some fraudulent government institutions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAgain, the socio-economic situation in the country has so badly deteriorated to the extent that Nigeria is wallowing in abject poverty, hunger, and unemployment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe poor economic policies of the government, the hike in the prices of petroleum products, and the soaring forex situation have further deteriorated the living conditions of the people.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, with a country with such an enormous crisis, thinking of waging war against another country or defending democracy is not only laughable but misconceived and misdirected.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAny government policy that does not have a direct bearing or effect in uplifting the living conditions and the living standard of Nigerians should not be embarked upon by the government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe already have enough crises on our hands, from insecurity, hunger, unemployment, poverty, and poor infrastructure amongst others, I think the government has enough tasks to focus on rather than footloose into the internal affairs of another country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAgain, international law precludes nations such as Nigeria from interfering in the internal affairs of other sovereign countries, and therefore, flowing from the aforesaid, it is our candid opinion that the pronouncement of government in meddling in the internal affairs of Niger Republic is uncalled for, unwarranted and unnecessary at this point.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNigeria cannot be playing the big brother of Africa when the people are hungry. We are giant of Africa only in name but we are far from living up to that expectation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government needs to think about Nigeria first, we have enormous challenges on our hands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe government must focus on how to restore our economy, rebuild infrastructure, create jobs, and end killings and insecurity in Nigeria rather than waste time, resources, and energy in the affairs of another sovereign nation.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Says Tinubu&#8217;s government came into office through illegal means Laments sufferings, hardship in Nigeria The Labour Party has cautioned the President Bola Tinubu-led All Progressives Congress administration against meddling in the internal affairs of Niger Republic.
