@charlesinojie:

"It would only take a while, and the conspiracy of deafening silence would eventually capitulate. Indeed, it is only a matter of time, and all those who by reason of their avaricious dalliance with the appurtenances of power felt they were insulated from the wanton economic misery that the Nigerian masses have been plunged into, will begin to cry out. Trust me, time happens to all seasons!"
