During the PDP era, we fought for development to be evenly spread. Making money was not the main issue but how to make more. Nigeria was classified as middle income country by 2012.
Under the APC, everyone has abandoned the concept of development; that’s almost an unnecessary distraction at this time. We are all fighting for our lives. Poverty and killings are so widespread that most Nigerians are absolutely preoccupied with staying alive and APC still have people supporting them.
In the campaign season of 2014/2015, the APC was formed and became the only visible opposition. Nigerians had never seen that kind of opposition ever.
They were toxic, vicious, lying, threatening and worse. Most decent people were shocked. Those APC folks then were almost openly working with Boko Haram (those were the only terrorist group at the time). Boko Haram became emboldened by the support they were getting from the APC.
APC glamorized all activities of Boko Haram, insulted the integrity and sovereignty of Nigeria by directly involving the government of the USA in our elections. President Obama and his wife openly campaigned for the APC, and even donated his chief campaign officer, David Axelrod to APC as consultant strategist.
With the APC, the USA stopped the sale of arms to Nigeria. The APC ensured that the then federal government was sufficiently incapacitated to fight terror. President Jonathan had to secure the services of Eben Barlow, a South African national and got his PMC to fight Boko Haram.
APC planted moles everywhere in government, and subverted the federal government. APC carried out TREASON and called that politics.
To confessions later, by the same APC, which the then President had security reports of how the APC had decided to start a civil war in Nigeria should they not be declared victorious in the elections. The APC, employed a certain ex military man who doubled as a cleric, to import thousands of fighters from across West Africa to Nigeria.
These consists of Tuaregs, Fulani, etc from Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger Republic, Chad and more. They came in trailers, trucks and more, and were distributed all over Nigeria, in readiness to be called up to fight the Jonathan government if not declared winner.
While they did that, they compromised the PDP leadership, and INDC. And they had the security forces on their side. Some foreign spies had all the details, too.
President Jonathan had the details. He won the elections in 2015 but he very deliberately threw the elections and allowed APC to take over.
The APC were shocked, so was the world. The APC never prepared for leadership, and had no plans of returning the fighters they had brought into the country.

Now, the fighters had no fights to engage in and started complaining. They were bribed with 100bn Naira through a certain Miyetti Allah scheme. They were dissatisfied and wanted to be part of Nigeria. So, the Ruga policy was birthed. Indigenous people screamed “blue murder”.
All the while, they spread, and the then terrorist Buhari kept empowering them as president. Killings became widespread. Terrorism rose to a crescendo. Military were almost deliberately incapacitated. Some became bandits, whole swathes of Nigeria were overran. Some found their way into government and this kept on until killings, banditry and terrorism were incorporated into our national life.
Now, they want whole states and regions, and spreading like wildfire till date. All thanks to the APC. So, when people cry that they want the government to fight terrorism and killings, I get really confused.
Terrorism is the franchise of the APC. APC owns terrorism. The very government of the APC was based on terror. The very power sustaining the APC till date, is terrorism. Trillions of Naira either as defense budget, or kidnap budget or something, are siphoned out of the system due to terrorism.
Terrorism is APC and APC is terrorism and with terrorism, they perpetuate themselves in power and killings continue.
Funny, the people, that fear and hate terrorism and terrorists, are supporters of the APC. Isn’t that funny? Even funnier that the very party of goons and terrorists has supporters.
