Violent reaction if the PDP wins

Lesley Gene Agams

Buhari, IBB, Atiku & several other northern leaders threatened there would be a violent reaction if the PDP which reneged on the zoning agreement won with jonathan as its candidate. This has been in the media since before the PDP primaries.... Are we surprised? After the Egypt uprising Buhari warned there could be an uprising like that here. I did not believe then he was speaking figuratively. Unfortunately, the protesters in the Egypt and Tunisia were more educated than the protesters in the north Nigeria and that is a key difference of course. No one can argue with their right to protest but they are obviously not capable of the peaceful and organized protests that succeeded. There current form of protest will lead to nothing good for the country and if there is a civil war i do not think international support will be overwhelmingly on their side. I am no fan of the PDP but do we really want to risk a war & anarchy just to get rid of them?
