Theophilus Danjuma: Insidiousness at it's zenith
The issue of controversial Theophilius Danjuma is one that any sane
country should want to bury for good. His case and antecedents are
remienescent of the Hitler era in Germany. Danjuma has been synonymous
with everything bad in Nigeria, ie his pernicious role in the crisis
leading to the civil war and his escalating fortunes while the state of
the nation and it's people nosedived to despicable depth. So i found it
outlandish that Dr wilmot can come to Nigeria to burnish the image of
such an insidious individual. He practically came to insult us not with
the gibberish he was espousing and Nigerians as guilible, duplicitious and
culpable as usual were cheering on like brainwashed commies..
Wilmot said Danjuma could never steal and his parents thought him not to
steal!, He also affirmed that there is no record or suspicion he knows
of Danjuma stealing money when he was a public officer. What bunkum and
sheer rubbish!,Then how could someone who was never an heir, who was not
born with even a wooden spoon, who never entered into any inheritance,
who was from a poor family,who never had any business ventures as at
1979 and who retired from the army became a multi billionaire in less
than 10years!
The depressing fact about Nigerians is that we like wallowing in self
deceit,bizarre adulations and elevating nonsense. If not how could
someone like this be accorded such prominence despite the atrocities he
has commited in this country.Sadly,been a nation without history and
devoid of genuine record keeping, i shudder what will happen in the next
twenty years, wont all the traces of his culpable recird be buried for
good?.This is someone who sounds so unapologetic, remorseless and cocky
despite all?, you need to read his recent interviews to affirm his
psychotic, sociopathic cum ethnic irredentist disposition
Well If he is sure of the source of his questionable wealth let him come
out and tell Nigerians how he practically metamophosized overnight into
a billionaire from an army general?. To be candid,Danjuma is richer than
most people like Adedoyin,Jolayemi,Da ngote,Folawiyo, Ojora,Odogwu etc.
Well, he has the all comers affairs and everything goes clime in Nigeria
to thank for his arrogance and unrepentant posture, because where
Nigeria to be a sane country people like him would not only be behind
bars for good, but would also be ostracized.
Incontrovertibly, we can never divorce this man's stupendous wealth from
the deplorable state of the country and it's people. So, the man should
just keep quiet and enjoy his loot, lavish his money on his equally
mundane and former senate benchwarming wife.He should not saddle us any
further with his inanities and outlandish and undeserved celebrations at
our expense while we scavenge for our next meal( AT LEAST, UNDP SAYS 70%
OF US LIVE ON LESS THAN $1 PER DAY)
