The gale of human rights violations under the regime of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari in the face of a 21st century democracy has become a sordid tale for Nigerians, MUDIAGA AFFE writes
In September 2018, the naval authorities arrested one Group Capt Dada Labinjo and 15 others over allegations of illegal bunkering and dumped them at a military detention facility in Apapa, Lagos instead of charging them to court. Condemning the series of human rights violations, Nobel laureate, Prof Wole Soyinka, said the “degree of cynicism in the conduct of security agents in the present regime had attained a level of consistency that is surpassed by only one other previous government.”
“Almost as it was happening, I watched the video of a pack of the DSS bring down, and fight over their unarmed, totally defenceless quarry within the sanctuary of a court of law. It noted that the Buhari regime lacked transparency. In 2018, the United States Department of State also heavily indicted the same regime and its agents of gross human rights violations and abuses.
“In 2003, the ANPP had a rally and it was violently suppressed by the police. It was the teargas that was inhaled by Okadigbo that led to his death two days later. I was briefed by General Buhari and others, I took up the matter and I won it at the Federal High Court that Nigerians do not need any permit to demonstrate.
“This boy, Sowore, has been protesting since his undergraduate days between 1992 to 1994. As President of the Students’ Union, he launched a war against cultism on campus but because many of the children of the rich were involved, he was expelled. Despite this, we saved him and he graduated successfully. Buhari, Lai Mohammed, and others; there was nothing they didn’t say about other governments-what they call hate speeches; many of their speeches were more than hate.
“So, it was obvious that he needed to bring down the government through negative campaigns and the political environment was conducive because Jonathan did not have the culture, background, and temperament of a dictator. He said, “Every citizen of Nigeria has equal rights of expression and freedom of speech and any attempt to deny people of such rights will be nothing short of a dictatorship.Osinbajo, other SANs in Buhari regime know DSS’ court invasion unacceptable – Okpoko, former NBA president
Buhari is not for either of them. His is rule by force and herdsmen security.

National security is derived from the Constitution, and Rule of law is the foundation of Nigerian constitution; so what the hell do Buhari regime and his co-travellers mean by National Security?
Both do not exit in his regime.
