Where are Sowore, Ohimai, Dadiyata?
Any type of government – military, fascist or totalitarian – can deliver services of material nature to its citizens; building hospitals, schools, roads and providing other social amenities. But not all types of government can allow citizens be citizens — not subjects or minions. This is where democracy stands out.
Joseph Stalin was a brutal Soviet dictator. Though he transformed the defunct USSR from an agrarian state to an industrial hub and even strengthened the military might of the country, making it a rival superpower to the US; he is most remembered for being an executioner and violator. Boss Mustapha, secretary to the government of the federation, said last Thursday that ‘’there cannot be real democracy without the freedom of the press’’. But I doubt if he understood the weight of his statement, considering how the actions of the administration he serves run antithetical to this aphorism.
No matter how long it takes, some Nigerians will not glide by until Sowore is released unconditionally.
