Ezekwesili Alleges Gang Up Against Her, And The Need To Pay The Price Of Liberty

By Akinwale Kasali

#Bringbackourgirls Convener and former Minister of Education, Obiageli Ezekwesili, has alleged a gang up against her for speaking the truth, and fighting for the liberty of the oppressed in the country.

The activist also expressed optimism that sooner than later, more Nigerians will rise up to speak up against ‘those who poorly govern our country’.

In a series of tweets she shared on Sunday afternoon on her verified Twitter handle,  Ezekwesili said ‘no society can have Good Governance without “paying a price for Liberty”.

She went on to reveal that members of the administrations of former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan and the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari quickly find a common ground to attack and malign her person because of her belief in the fight for liberty from the bad leadership the nation is facing.

Ezekwesili, who was recently appointed into the Board of Trustees of the International Bureau of Fiscal Documentation, IBFD, stressed further to disclose that her sin is demanding for ‘Public Accountability from those that govern‘ has been a major issue and wars she  has been fighting over the years.

She also made it known that she feels no offence towards them.

She wrote:

“And herein do I exercise myself, to have always a conscience void of offence toward God, and toward men. Acts24v16.

“I have an amazing life. Two consecutive administrations and their numerous allies ever finding a common ground against one woman because she demands Public Accountability from those that govern.

Couldn’t wish for a more Purposeful Life!

Will never stop praising God for this!

‘There shall come a time in this Land, when many more Citizens will rise up and stare down at those that poorly govern our country. When that time comes, all we bear today would be so well-worth it, because no society can have Good Governance without “paying a price for Liberty”.

‘This One Thing I Know concerning this Land:

Nigeria shall be a re-enactment of the miracle of the Valley of the Dry Bones in the Biblical book of Ezekiel Chapter 37.

Let not your heart be troubled. It shall surely come to pass!

Remember to #TakeResponsibility today and always.’
