Internecine War

Internecine war started between 1966 and 1970 during the Nigerian civil war of the Biafra and Nigerian Army. The Biafra wanted secession from Nigeria, it was vehemently opposed by the Federal government. This was the first in the history of Nigeria. Internecine war is indirectly used to reduce population, which happened in India during Indo/Pakistan war that ended in 1947. This was because Pakistan was part of India before the internecine war. Internecine war is a melancholy crying for solution. When the same body of people fight war against each other, no one is safe. Nigeria for instance, the internecine war started during the military and dove tailed to the presidential democracy which was noticeable during Buhari. There was inflow of Boko haram, Bandits and fulani herdsmen. People said Buhari was a fulani man who used his official capacity to import Fulanis from neighbouring countries, so as to take over Nigeria. However, it became more serious in this present government, because the president does not belong to fulani oligarchy. Internecine war can be aggressively attacked when becoming violent for destroying lives and properties. A bold president if not part of them, should hold the bull by the horns. If he pretends not to know what is happening during his era, he too can be seen as part of them on religious ground. People will now see the reason for Muslim/Muslim ticket during 2023 presidential election. Reducing population through internecine war is worrisome, instead birth control is germane. Disadvantages of internecine war are (1) People become homeless (2) Innocent citizens may die (3) Families are put under disarray (4) People that are not owners take over properties that are not theirs illegally. To counter internecine war, international bodies should be invited to help, otherwise, (UNCHR) United Nation High Commission for Refugees may have problem. Therefore, powerful countries should be invited to halt internecine war across the globe. This is more serious than Late Mahatma Gandhi theory of “non violence”. Nigeria should be fast so as to halt internecine war, instead of training Boko haram, Bandits and fulani herdsmen in Nigerian military organisation so as to further carry out their nefarious activities under the pretext of repentance. Hardened criminals are dangerous to recompense. No country does this except Nigeria. Here, the Bible word”Repentance” should not come in because repentance in the Bible of Christians means total repentance, but I am afraid if this applies to Quoran/Islam. Finally, government should guillotine those that are recalcitrant if need be, get them punished or evacuated from Nigeria. Thereafter, peace like a river will return to Nigeria in a hurry. When a pit is dug and people are falling into it, the pit must be covered and if not, people will be dying.
