January 2012 will go down in Nigerian history as a day Nigerians proved Naysayers wrong. It will be remembered for fine speeches calling for long awaited and much hyped change, it will be remembered as the day many overcame the barrier of fear that have for long kept Nigerians in check, but it should also be remembered as the day Bashir Musa Zango was felled by police bullets.
Basir was not a criminal, neither was he on the streets of Kano with intent to harm his neighbours. The only wrong that Basir, like other young men who either paid with their lives or suffered that agony of live round striking their body at speeds faster than that of sound, committed was asking that his country be governed by the people and for the people.
Bashir Musa Zango was killed in Kano city by Goodluck Jonathan's Police, who not only failed in their duty to protect him, but fired the fatal shot that sent him to the great beyond. Bashir Musa Zango is a Martyr and his death should not be in vain.
