Of My Protégé, Obanikoro, Nigerian Politics and Others.


The Nigerian political airspace is totally hilarious filled with circumstances and news that defies even the worst of logic.

When the Obanikoro 'porting' news broke, I just put on a huge smile 😁, knowing fully well Nigeria is blessed with many shameless and portfolio seeking career politician, then after reading the Lamentations of FFK ( though I'm not his fan ) on the issue, some of his lines were apt, then like Tinubu, I remember my protégé, I will receive all manner of insults from this particular protégé because of the body language that the protégé always display to the followers/followership funny enough, my protégé keep using my templates and will reach out to me secretly when help/advises for making certain tough decision are needed, yet the gullible followers keep painting my name red, ( I wish them all speedy recovery, like all those who hav hitherto developed high blood pressure on Tinubu/Koro issue ) and to all that put the issue on their head and started misbehaving,
Óúñ tòn tan, lo dun éégun
That episode is now an historical reference

For the other Nigerian Youths, here we are, if in a rare case, a Democrat 'port' to be A Republican, It's once in a lifetime, you will never see A Btitish Conservative joining Labour and doing a to and fro like a commercial bus unlike here where maximum 4years, a politician will join the 'power bloc'

If Obanikoro is 'Santified' after his latest in the series of record of 'porting' which is most likely, then this country is doomed

In the peak of Obanikoro vs Tinubu, alot happened in Lagos, Obanikoro is re-aligning himself for future reckoning, appointments and of course Political benefits

Just last night, The news of Emmanuel Macron, the 39years old new France PM came in, the Nigerian youths are largely interested in getting crumbs from the Politicians desk and use it to oppress in the same manner like the looters, shouting and sharing #NotToYoungToRunBill on Social Media will amount to nothing, unfortunately some of the youths won't fare better than the current set because their orientation is bad and motive is disheartning,
If youths can falsify age to lead in organizations where there is no salary, then what happens when such youth is in politics? Unfortunately again, some of our older folks are helping the youths in this regards, the youths thinking they are being helped, the elders know, they are drawing back the hand of the youth's time

Nigerian Youths need to organize themself into a big unit, do the unthinkable in the right decision, the number is on 'our' side, organising and using them effectively is what we are seriously lacking

Nigeria needs a system, a functional way of leadership, this is May, 2017 budget hasn't been passed, despite assurances last year that the process will be swift, in any sane Country, heads will have roll by now, yet this people get paid huge salary for doing great dis-service to this Nation

On the other hand,
I heard the President has return to UK, I wish him well while also hoping if I reach his age (God willing), I will not require medical tourism in any part of the world with full hopes that Nigeria will have funtuonal Multipurpose and Specialist hospital and enough Consultants if I ever require their attention
