On April 22, the Minister of Defence, Major General Bashir Salihi Magashi (retd), was on the spot. He told State House correspondents that “Nigeria is bleeding”. During the media chat, he informed us all that he has been a lawyer for the past 34 years. I guess the country knows him more as a general than a legal practitioner. To bleed is simply a blood loss; you must have been wounded before you can bleed. “Make no mistakes that our nation is bleeding now”, Magashi declared.
Wikipedia defines bleeding, also known as a haemorrhage, or simply blood loss, as “blood escaping from the circulatory system from damaged blood vessels. Bleeding can occur internally, or externally either through a natural opening such as the mouth, nose, ear, urethra, vagina or anus, or through a wound in the skin.” Hypovolemia is a massive decrease in blood volume, and death by excessive loss of blood is referred to a

He charged the newly commissioned naval cadets trainees and ratings to stay clear from what he described as today’s social vices such as substance abuse, cultism, peer group pressure and negative use of social media and put into use the experiences they acquired throughout their training.
He said that the Nigerian Navy in collaboration with other security agencies has succeeded in containing some of the security challenges in the economic sector.
The minister said quite a number of political, ethnic and religious leaders were exploiting the social division for their personal gains.
General Magashi had told reporters yesterday that Nigeria lacked a national consensus, common comprehensive understanding and the interpretation of what national security is because of such divisiveness.

Such elite are quick to attribute blames to groups other than theirs.
