A Country of Political Analysts.

     

On the last Sunday of the month of June in 2016, I was early enough to make it half way into the Sunday school class. I sincerely can not remember the topic of the Sunday school lecture, but I can remember quite vividly that i heard the words "Buhari" and "Change" more times in a Church environment than I have ever heard before in one place. At some point, I found it hard to differentiate between Church and the newspaper stand at Okokomaiko bus stop.

"That is the change we are all suffering, because we have refused to read our Bible". Unsure of the relationship between the Bible and our now predicament with change in the country, I paid absolute attention to what the Sunday school teacher had to say next. " The book of Proverbs chapter 24 vs 21 made it clear to us not to meddle with people who come to us with change, because their calamity is sudden, just like it is in Nigeria now,  but we refused to listen. Some did not even know that the all knowing God had warned us about APC long before now because they refuse to read their Bibles and understand God. See this Bible " as he raises his very big and 47years old looking Bible over his head to show the whole church, "it is full of empirical facts, the bible will arrest and convict you of your sins, with empirical facts and strong evidence you can't deny, unlike the EFCC under this Buhari man, who arrests you first puts one on media trial, and then scramble for the first piece of evidence lastly. " At this point I left like asking the Sunday school teacher,  if we were still church, but it seemed an unforgivable thing to do, interrupting a man in his zone. Moreover I was enjoying his outburst, it seemed laughable then, his verbal and non verbal expressions, so I just watched him continue.

Obasanjo & Buhari will eventually fight, Buhari will be a formidable opponent - Babatope

In an interview with Punch, PDP chieftain, Ebenezer Babatope said former president Obasanjo and incoming president Buhari will eventually fight but Buhari will prove to be a formidable opponent. When asked what he foresaw of Buhari and Obasanjo's relationship, Babatope replied;

Many of them who are jumping up and down now will know better when Buhari must have finished dealing with them. Buhari is a Fulani man from Daura. The northern agenda to get rid of southern leadership started in the 2011 elections. Obasanjo had his reasons. He supported Jonathan to succeed Yar’Adua and he was the same person that said Jonathan should go. As an individual, he has his rights. I am told he has been given three ministerial slots. It could be more than that, so let him go ahead but it does not stop Obasanjo tomorrow to take his biro to wipe Buhari clean and clear but the difference is that when he is fighting Buhari, he will be fighting a different kind of opponent. Buhari is a Fulani; I keep on saying that and they are very rugged and tactical in their approach to power. It is going to be an interesting fight but it is going to come.
We in the PDP are waiting because we are returning to power in 2019 and luckily for us, we are going to bring out a candidate from the North to face Buhari. Some in the APC have been deceiving themselves that Buhari is not going to run for a second term. They say he’s going to do a term and I laugh at them. If God gives Buhari strength and power and I wish him that, he is going to run for a second term and we will pitch a Hausa/Fulani against him.
