Looking at the state of things in Nigeria, I see evil concentrated in the North as a result of the Boko-Haram insurgency. If it were to be as usual, assassination news especially of the political class would be flying in the air as national election approaches.

Kidnapping, corruption in magnitude, political campaign with no political moral, irresponsible disbursement of funds among others were the order of the Nigerian politics in times like this.

But as it is, we hear less of these evils, except for an ill-planed evil in Ibadan where a supposed-mad man was found with human bodies, and other silent in-state occurrences.

So, when the world powers are done with Boko haram, I hope these other evils will not manifest. Political leaders treading on the blood of the people they want to lead, so sad to conceive.

Therefore, I am pleading in agony of reminiscence of fellow Nigerians gone with the evil sacrifices of past elections, that there is no truth in a god that asks for blood, before your ascension to the political office. Therefore, let us shun these otherworldly and inhuman acts that political aspiration heralds.

Politics is humanity, civility, leadership, caring, social, generous… and harmless, therefore, run the race in utmost good faith. My sincere prayer is that whoever plans to do otherwise shall not ascend to the post in Jesus Name. (Amen!)
