DEAR USMAN, ... - TESLIM OROLADE

Elections have come and gone, somd people have become "atiquiet" while others have moved to the NextLevel....

But in all of these lives were lost, according to election observers, over 30 Nigerians were killed on election day. One of them is Daniel Usman, an 100 level student of Kogi State University who was reportedly killed for failing to vote APC.

In this article, I write a letter to Daniel Usman...Take a look.... 👇👇

Dear Usman,

It's the morning of today,the day after you were slained with utter disdain.

As I write you, I write with a stained heart and a tainted mind trying to detail the pains which I still feel. You were a strong advocate of peace,but got killed. A young ambitious man whose goals got ceased and now you freeze in the cold hands of death. Sad!

The men in uniform who lead the system which failed you,now hail you,they say they wish they could do something to bail you. Lies! All Lies !!.

Funny how you suddenly rose from zero to hero in the minds of these unscrupulous fellows....Hypocrites!.

But,if our hearts continues to beat,and we  breath,we will continue to  hold you close to our minds and your heroics will never be far  from our heads . Hence, we will continue to fight to bring about the Nigeria you never had.

For now, we will bury you in honour and grieve. But we will  heal,in the hope of a future filled with ease.

Till we meet in a place better than here. Rest on Usman, a man braver than us all.
