Since the dawn of time, myths represent the universal bank of human wisdom. Myths ride on stories along the superhighway of time-honoured communication. Myths affirm the supremacy of good over evil, teaching morals and preserving history, passing on traditions and knowledge; explaining the nature of man.
I believe the earliest myths came into being shortly after the dew of creation set on the first heroic deed, and the sun cast the shadow of the first villain.
The compartmentalisation of humanity into race, language, religion, technology, wealth, and power, notwithstanding, myths, like in earliest times, still beam the torch on unclear events in human existence today.
For the heads that have weathered more than 50 rainy seasons, the realities of yesteryear fast-turning into myths in the eyes of today’s youngsters are understandable.

When you say the Nigerian naira was once stronger than the American dollar, members of Generation Z will wonder whether Nigeria was the paradise that existed in the Garden of Eden. When you say Nigeria’s astronomical wealth of the early 70s blinded her leaders into confusion, Generation Alpha will think you’re on Colorado. Memories of the Biafra War and the Golden Age of Nigerian sports are gradually turning into myths as the mind dims with age.
Before the corrupt confession of the former representative, Bauchi-North senatorial district in the National Assembly, Senator Adamu Bulkachuwa, backtracks into a deafening silence and returns as a roaring, improbable myth in the future, I shall, once again, lend my voice to condemn the suspected criminal collaboration Balkachuwa engineered between the upper legislative chamber and the Nigerian judiciary.
This Sallah, as Nigerian Muslim faithful supplicate to Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful, I’m sure the Bulkachuwa family and many money-for-judgment members of the Senate will be on prayer mats, begging God or Satan to let this cup pass over.
But Nigerians must keep the fire under the feet of the National Judicial Council, pour hot ash on the Senate, make Bulkachuwa and his wife, Justice Zenaib, who was the President, Court of Appeal, eat their corrupt excreta, accuse the Tinubu Presidency of complicity in the rot within the judiciary – if it continues to keep silent; insist on the cleansing of the Augean stable.

If Bulkachuwa had said he influenced his wife to favour the petition of the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, or that of Labour Party presidential candidate, Mr Peter Obi, the police, Department of State Service, and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission would’ve printed tonnes of the Electoral Act, distributed it free and swear to defend it to the death. Bulkachuwa and his 70-year-old wife would’ve been arrested, detained and charged to court while Atiku and Obi would’ve been sufficiently ridiculed.
While Nigerians were aghast as to the sheer effrontery of Bulkachuwa and his alleged cohorts, a graveyard silence is what they got from the institutions mandated to check various forms of corruption nationwide. While a cross-section of Nigerians has risen to condemn Bulkachuwa’s speech, Nigeria’s anti-corruption institutions have not condemned Bulkachuwa, revealing a body language that suggests the incumbent government isn’t ready for a fight against the judiciary, probably because the Tinubu government is still standing on one leg.
