THE TYRANNY OF COUSINS

THE TYRANNY OF COUSINS: A tale of two desperate brothers and the hegemony of a singular tribe against others.

SETTING : The conquered Rivers State.

INTRO:
One is a wild animal called "Lion" another a phenomenon denoted as "High Tension".
One breeds fire and the other wields a Machete.
One roars..Whilst the other rings aù bell for battle.

This act of warfare was introduced by one evil genuis. A self acclaimed "Golden ruler" who reduced his state from "grace to grass"
During the years he reigned as lord of the Rivers in the early years of 2000 AD, a dark horizon encircled us: from the shorelines of Kula to the roaring flames of Ebeocha crime was institutionalised.
A once quiet land with a garden city was thrown into a theatre of war. As he exited the helm of the throne, an imbalance was initiated..hence the K-Leg.

THE CRUX:
Today, as the debacle of the 2 - Arch feudal Lords rages, above and within us rains a black particulate matter called "soot";
Our Rivers are turned to Rivers of blood;
Our waters tainted with Hydrocarbons from crude oil spillage and illegal refining "Gbo Fire"..and beneath us are graves of departed souls begging for justice and vengeance.
We breathe our death in the air and no one cares.

THESE SONS OF ANARCHY hail from a singular tribe...a people that abandoned their agrarian prowess and constituted the worst representation of Rivers people in staring eyes of nations.
Today Rivers State is rated as one of the most Educationally Disadvantaged States(EDS)
Rivers people are now seen as touts because of the unchecked activities of a tribe that produce miscreants who must do task force and revenue collection.
Even on set in electronic media platforms, these "Mighty Jupiters" bark and shout without any form of decorum and basic etiquette.
They demonstrate the highest level of rascality by their incendiary rhetorics: sowing seeds of discord, rancour and acrimony amongst us.
