Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka has said that the removal of history from the curriculum of Nigerian schools by the government is a criminal act.
Speaking at the 24th edition of the Lagos Book and Arts Festival organized, Soyinka stated that memories of Biafra can’t be erased by the removal of history from schools’ curriculum as the agitation can never be defeated.
He said;
“Collective memory is the key because it is that memory which is related to the mechanisms of relating reality to whatever narrative is given to us. It is far more important and it is more dangerous because you can get trapped in it because it is collected as a community activity and some of that I think is happening to us here in Nigeria.
“I’m referring of course to Biafra.
“The collective memory there is very strong, even before the war, I warned that this collective memory might remain to plague efforts at nation being and that therefore, everything should be done to avoid that war.
“When I use expressions like, Biafra can never be defeated can never be wiped away, people thought I was talking about just the battlefield.
“I was talking about, a notion, a passion which enters the collective memory in active life not just as a past narrative. this is what I was warning against. And we’re seeing it today.
“Governments sometimes think that by undertaking the criminal act of removing history from schools, something which I never believed could ever happen to us. The government actually stopped teaching of history in schools.
“So naive, so stupid as not to recognise that there is something called memory, collective memory, active memory in the present.
“If the purpose was to obliterate the war or memories of the war, what about events that led up to the war? What about the position, the narrative of existence in relation to the outer world? How do you obliterate for heaven’s sake?
“Yet people sat down and went about their business when they removed history from the curriculum.
“That’s what I mean by saying that we must always adjudicate the present by history, by the collective memory.
“At the same time, however, we must take care not to become prisoners of that collective memory.
The scandals beclouding the presidential candidate of the All-Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu are not only disqualifying, but they have also become an endless web. Currently trending and most damaging is a valid court document which clearly shows he had to forfeit a whopping $460,000 allegedly from illegal drug proceeds to the Government of the United States of America. Combine that with an archived report that has surfaced which suggests that Tinubu indeed suffers from an apparent terminal illness, as well as allegations of money laundering, massive corruption, certificate forgery, perjury, to falsification of his age.
We are talking about a man who is possibly the oldest-looking 70-year-old multibillionaire in the human history. The person in question is also well known to have no legitimate source of income but owns private jets and launders money with bullion vans. Yet, the same character is desperate to become president of a country but refuses to answer simple questions about his past or present.
In a normal clime, any individual with a background as shady as Mr. Bola Ahmed Tinubu would not be grandstanding as a presidential candidate for a major political party, let alone any chance of winning. But Nigeria is not normal. Anything can go—without qualms. Therefore, having grabbed the party’s ticket by every foul means, it must not surprise anyone if Tinubu emerges president by hook or crook.
If such bad omen is to befall Nigeria, but may God forbid; the following three ominous developments are obvious:
CORRUPTION: Mentioning corruption in the same breadth with Tinubu can never be a breaking news. As the then Chairman of Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), Nuhu Ribadu clearly stated, the Asiwaju is “a looter of international dimensions.” This notoriety is more troubling when considered that despite Nigeria’s sleazy reputation, none of its leaders, whether military or civilian, has ever assumed the governance of the country with the type of shady background well known of Bola Ahmed Tinubu. None!! Yet, most of them, if not all, ended up becoming more corrupt than they were before gaining power. Imagine then what becomes of Nigeria if the current APC presidential candidate ever has his way.
DRUG SCANDAL: Any scholar of politics who has observed the American modus operandi with respect to high-profile drug cases will profess that Tinubu’s alleged drug peddling will be unearthed should he wangle his way to Aso Rock. The U.S. is known to be very unforgiving of individuals who use drug proceeds to gain power in foreign nations.
A perfect example is Manuel Antonio Noriega, the former President of Panama. Like Tinubu, Noriega had amassed a huge personal fortune through shady sources. Though the U. S. authorities ignored the Panama president for a while, allowing him to enter the country as he pleased, they chose the seasonable time to exhume his drug case. Consequently, they convicted Noriega, removed him from power, jailed him for life, and shamed his country.
A similar sad fate awaits Nigeria if Tinubu is to emerge president. Now, consider that the former Lagos State Governor does not hide his stupendous wealth. Follow that with the fact that the man continues to deny any connection to massive corruption in Nigeria. There and then, and where prompted, the U.S. authorities are bound to link his sudden billions to the drug case that once led to his forfeiture of $460,000.00.
Statute of Limitation and Double Jeopardy Clause of the Fifth Amendment to the US Constitution notwithstanding, the very nature of this case still presents prosecutors clear legal avenues to explore the Separate Sovereigns Doctrine and seek Tinubu’s indictment.
TERMINAL ILLNESS: A Tinubu presidency will subject Nigeria to another round of absentee leader whose degree of health crisis far belittles those of Umar Yar’Adua, and Muhammadu Buhari put together. For those who are not familiar with the extent of Tinubu’s sickness, it makes sense to consider an independent opinion as widely reported at a time he was not seeking office.
One of such innocent viewpoints is a chronicle by the Daily Trust Newspaper on October 29, 2014, which goes as follows: [“All Progressives Congress (APC) leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, was flown to London on Friday for medical treatment…An aide said he was flown out in his private jet as his ailing health deteriorated. Our correspondent gathered that Tinubu is suffering from an ailment which affects his posture and balance as well his movement, speech and writing. He is said to have been managing the ailment for almost a decade. “He has been manifesting symptoms of Parkinson disease which include tremor, shaky limbs, hands and fingers, slow movement, impaired posture and balance and loss of automatic movements,” said a close aide.]
Close observers of the Asiwaju will agree intoto with the Daily Trust report. Bola Ahmed Tinubu not only appears far older than he claims, but he also appears physically and mentally challenged. These obvious terminal health challenges along with his shady background explain why he cannot face the Nigerian press or attend presidential debates. Rather, he is attempting to bamboozle the electorate by adopting his familiar mélange of propaganda and profligacy, hiring highly priced spin doctors whose sole raison d’etre is to spew fatal lies. He even goes as far as threatening pressmen with lawsuits, thereby portraying himself as a victim. But such shenanigans will not work.
The latest truth emanating from all these tales is that the Nigerian masses have become wiser. They are determined to firmly resist the political chicanery this time around. And the world is watching. It is incumbent upon the APC, therefore, to see an urgent need to compel Tinubu to withdraw from the race and quickly replace him in line with the electoral laws. Other patriotic Nigerians should join to demand his withdrawal. The change will stave off the inevitable worldwide outrage, as well as the thick cloud of shame that will engulf Nigeria if the country’s president is generally seen as a corrupt kingpin cum drug lord.
Critics will be quick to fire back here. They will resort to the mundane notion that the APC has presented a joint ticket of Tinubu, and his running mate, Kashim Shettima. In other words, Shettima would step in if Tinubu becomes incapacitated due to his failing health or a likely jail term by the U.S. authorities over his alleged drug trafficking. But such a shameless plot is a gross disservice to the country. The Nigerian electorate deserves the right to critically examine whoever could become their president before the elections.
The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, Omoyele Sowore, while speaking on the issues between the Federal Government and the Academic Staff Union of Universities, said the ‘no work, no pay’ policy reportedly enforced on the lecturers ought to be applicable to the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).
Sowore, who spoke at the presidential town hall organised by Daria Media and Cabal Entertainment on Friday evening, insisted that if the FG must enforce the ‘no work, no pay’ policy, the enforcement must start from Buhari because he barely worked.
While fielding a question on the government’s insistence on enforcing the policy on ASUU, who embarked on strike for eight months, and how he could handle it differently, Sowore maintained that Nigerian workers must be paid when their industrial action was based on a just course.
Sowore said, “When the strike is just, you will have to pay the strikers. They didn’t want to do this, it was the government that forced them into it.
“If you want to start the enforcement of not paying the people who are not working, I think the President should be number one because he barely works. And the truth is that these are the things that escalate the problems. You can’t keep escalating the problems by engaging in the things that made them.
Our higher institutions are too important to be played with the technical part of laws. Let’s put the money they asked for. They are specific about how much they want. Let’s find the money and give it to them. Their demands have been the same since the 1990s.”
The AAC standard bearer maintained that education was too important and even though it could be said that education was expensive, it was not as expensive as it was seen compared to its importance in the society.
ASUU had gone on strike on February 14, 2022, over the government’s alleged failure to meet its demands, including improved funding for government-owned tertiary institutions in the country.
The strike, which lasted for eight months ended on October 14, but while the lecturers expected the government to pay them for the period they were on strike, the government insisted on enforcing the ‘No work, no pay’ policy, hence, the lecturers were paid half salary for October.
Following this, ASUU branches had been protesting the half-pay.
Some netizens are reacting coldly to Peter Obi’s reasons for not visiting Beatrice Itubo, the Labour Party’s gubernatorial candidate in Rivers state, during his trip to the state on Thursday.
Obi was in Port Harcourt for the inauguration of the Nkpolu Oroworukwo flyover.
At the event, Obi endorsed Siminalaye Fubara, the governorship candidate of the rival Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
After the inauguration, Obi visited the LP presidential state coordinator and other party stakeholders but failed to ask for the party’s governorship candidate, who was absent from his meetings.
Itubo, fondly called Iron Lady has been on sick bed for two weeks as a result of a domestic accident she had while planning for one of their Labour Party campaigns in Port Harcourt.
Itubo, despite being on sickbed mobilized fellow party members, printed posters and erected billboards ahead of Obi’s visit to the state.
Although Obi apologized on Twitter for his mistake, netizens did not buy his explanation and apology, saying the apology lacks sincerity.
They believe his apology did not specially address his offensive behavior of trading off Itubo for the PDP governorship candidate, Fubara, to get Governor Wike’s support for his presidential ambition.
Obi said in his apology that he was
not aware of the party’s guber candidate’s sickness.
My sincere apologies to Mrs Beatrice Itubo, the Labour Party candidate in Rivers State, for an inadvertent oversight. When I visited Port Harcourt a few days back, I was not informed or aware of her sickness,” he said.
Oga, you are not sincere. Did you consider her when you endorsed the PDP Governorship candidate in Rivers State? This your apology is an afterthought, ,” one Twitter user commented under the apology tweet.
Another Twitter user said “Peter Lai Obi, if they didn’t tell you, why not ask or perhaps you are not aware you have a Guber candidate in this state?
@_keluba said: “President dey inadvertently oversight him guber candidate � God abeg o! Is this how you’ll inadvertently oversight Nigerians on important issues then come and be apologizing on Twitter? God abeg again���
However, others, who are believed to Obi supporters said he should be forgiven if he realizes his mistake.
The Obi-Datti Media Office has said the Labour Party is preparing to for an outright victory in the 36 states of the federation including the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, in the 2023 general elections.
The Media Office said this in a statement in Abuja, on Friday it said it was responding to a clearly unsubstantiated view expressed by a former Governor of Ekiti state, Ayo Fayose that he does not see Labour Party winning 25% in 24 states of the federation.
The Labour Party Campaign said, “Ordinarily, we would not have bordered to react to such subjective view not supported empirically but we feel such view is capable of sending the wrong message to the public if unexplained.
LP presidential candidate, Mr. Peter Obi and his Running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmad are not targeting 24 states for victory but the entire country meaning the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory.
“We are well aware that making 25% of the votes cast in 24 states is the minimum requirement to win the Presidency, but LP is looking at the entire country since it’s flag bearer is a national person to be limited to any region.
“Ex-Governor Fayose is certainly living in the past by refusing to capture the political mood of the country which is beyond geopolitical, ethnic, regional, state and my turn interests.“
The Media Office further noted that Nigerian youths who are driving the Obidient Movement are spread and active in every state of the federation and their target is overwhelming and outright victory across board.
It further observed that it was possible that Mr. Fayose and people who reason the way he does are relying on the old order not knowing that the Take-back-Nigeria project is actually meant to dismantle and decimate the old order and install a new vibrant and progressive system.The statement further read, “Mr. Fayose possibly due to political reason did not want to factor in the opinion polls conducted scientifically and professionally by three professional bodies, ANAP Foundation, Bloomberg and the Arewa Trust foundation all giving victory at the poll to LP’s Peter Obi.
“Since these scientifically proved polls were conducted few months ago, Peter Obi and his Obidient Movement have had their profiles ascending not declining meaning that victory in 2023 by Labour Party is being more enhanced.
“Finally, for purposes of emphasis, every indicator ahead of 2023 is showing clearly that Labour Party candidate is cruising to victory because his messages have sank with the people and has made the people’s decision to take back the country unanimous, total and unflinching.
The train has left the station and we expect progressive minds like Fayose to join.“
Wike made the pledge on Thursday, at the venue of the Nkpolu-Oroworokwo Flyover inauguration, in Port Harcourt.
“Each time you want to campaign in the state, let me know, all the logistics support, we will give to you”, Wike said, adding that the former Anambra State Governor, has all the characteristic to lead Nigeria.
The Rivers Governor, however said, unlike Obi, who left the PDP, he will remain in the party.
“I know the humiliation you suffered. Nobody will hear what you pass through and stay in the party but I will not leave. I will stay and fight.
“I won’t leave this house. I will never allow armed robbers to take over this house. I will stay and chase away armed robbers.
“So, thank God because if you have not left, you would not have realised your ambition to be able to save Nigeria”, Wike told Obi.
Obi left the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in October 2014, and joined the PDP. He was the running mate to PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the 2019 general elections.
He, however, dumped the PDP in early 2022 and joined the LP where he clinched the party’s 2023 presidential ticket.
Mueez Akande, one of the long time associate of the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, is dead. Akande was also the brother-in-law to Tinubu’s wife, Senator Oluremi Tinubu. Akande was linked to drug trafficking business in the United States of America along with Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The deceased was 72 years. Akande was the husband of Lola Akande, a sister to Oluremi, and current Lagos State Commissioner of Commerce, Industry, and Co-Operatives. The death of the septuagenarian was confirmed by the bereaved wife.
The death of the medical doctor, a close friend and confidant of Tinubu, brings to two, business and political associates of the APC national leader who have died in the last 48 hours.
Another friend, confidant, and Lagos lawmaker, Olayiwola Olawale, popularly called Omititi, who died in Jos, the plateau state capital during the APC presidential rally was laid to rest in Lagos yesterday, according to Islamic rites.
The death of Akande came at a time the certified true copy of settlement judgement ordering Tinubu to forfeit $460,000 drug money under the narcotic section of the US criminal code is generating controversy in the country.
The Certified True Copy of the court documents, which included the judgement delivered by Magistrate John Nordberg of a United States District Court, Northern District of Illinois, Eastern Division, was dated August 10, 2022, and signed by Thomas Bruton and Johnny Khuu, both Clerk and Deputy Clerk, respectively, of US District Court, Northern District of Illinois.The documents revealed how Tinubu and his associates were involved in the distribution of white heroin and money laundering between 1988 and 1992, when investigations closed in on them.
According to the documents Tinubu’s involvement in the shady deal was traced to the arrest of one Abiodun Agbele, who was nephew to one Adegboyega Mueez Akande, a major drug trafficker between the US and Nigeria.The document read in part, “Beginning as early as 1998, Adegboyega Mueez Akande, with others operated an organisation which distributed white heroin, a controlled substance under Title 21 of the United States Code.
“This distribution operation was conducted on a large scale and the proceeds of the operation substantial.”In a Verified Complaint for Forfeiture of funds in several accounts linked to Tinubu in First Heritage Bank and Citibank in the US, a United States Attorney, Michael Shepard, had narrated how Tinubu opened about 10 accounts in the name of Bola Tinubu and Compass Finance and Investment Limited in late December 1989 and January 1990, wherein he deposited funds far in excess of his earnings in Mobil Oil, where he was working at the time.
Some of the bank account numbers were 263226700 (First Heritage Bank), 39483134, 39483396, 4650279566 (Citibank N.A), and 52050 – 89451951, 52050 – 89451952 and 52050 – 89451953 (Citibank International) all in the US.Shepard noted that the funds in Tinubu’s accounts were suspected to represent proceeds of drugs or property involved in money laundering, hence the initiation of a warrant of seizure and monition was requested from the court.
In an affidavit deposed to in support of the Verified Complaint for Forfeiture by a Special Agent with US Internal Revenue Service, Mr. Kevin Moss, Tinubu was said to have contradicted himself during interrogation on his relationship with Agbele and Akande. While in one breath he admitted to receiving $100, 000 from Akande and used $80, 000 of the money to open the Heritage account, he had at another time denied having any financial relationship with Akande. He also denied having any other bank accounts in the US.
Based on the above, Moss said they had cause to believe “that the funds in the amount of $460,000 in account in the name of Bola Tinubu represents proceeds of narcotics or were involved in financial transactions in violation of 18 U.S.C ss 1956 and 1957 and therefore these funds are forfeited to the United States”.Shepard noted that although, “a less prima facie” case was established against Tinubu, the case was beyond mere suspicion, hence, a motion ex-parte application for order for seizure of the said funds was made by the US attorney on August 18, 1993, which was subsequently granted.“It is hereby ordered that the United States Marshall shall hereby have authority to execute the warrant of seizure and monition issued ….by serving the warrant on mail on Citibank and First Heritage Bank,” the documents read regarding the judgement.
Ever since he returned to Nigeria from the US, he had lived under the radar only associating with a handful of people.Akande, according to family sources had been ill for some time but it is not clear whether his alleged illness ultimately led to his demise. As of the time of this report, all efforts to confirm how he died from close family sources proved abortive.Meanwhile, Lagos State Governor, Mr. Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has commiserated with the Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives, Dr. Lola Akande, on the death of her husband.Sanwo-Olu, in a statement issued yesterday by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Gboyega Akosile, symphatised with Lola Akande over the demise of her lovely husband.
The governor also implored members of the Akande family, the deceased friends and associates to take the death of Kolapo Akande in good faith.Sanwo-Olu urged people to see Akande’s demise as the will of God and take solace in Him for a good life spent by the deceased during his lifetime and his contribution to humanity.
He said: “On behalf of my family, my cabinet, the Lagos State government, and the people of Lagos State, I commiserate with the Commissioner for Commerce, Industry and Cooperatives, Dr. Lola Akande, on the death of his beloved husband, Dr. Kolapo Akande.“Dr. Akande lived a fulfilled life. He will be sorely missed by his family and loved ones. We sympathise with the Akande family, the wife, children and the entire extended families of the deceased.
“I pray for the repose of Dr. Kolapo Akande’s soul. God will grant him eternal rest and comfort the family, friends and associates he left behind.”
Leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu has withdrawn a fundamental human rights violation suit filed against the federal government.
This was made known in a tweet on Thursday, by Kanu’s special counsel, Aloy Ejimakor.
According to the tweet which read in part, “Federal high court case for November 18 is discontinued”, Ejimakor said the case was discontinued for strategic reasons that would be inappropriate and unprofessional to disclose publicly.
Kanu had through his lawyer, in a suit marked FHC/ABJ/CS/1702/222, dated and filed on September 23, asked the court to declare the arrest and imprisonment of Kanu at a location in Kenya and the subsequent imprisonment in the aircraft that conveyed him from Kenya to Nigeria, amounted to false arrest and false imprisonment.
Other requests include, “A declaration of this honourable court that the defendants acted in bad faith and/or abused their public offices in falsely arresting and falsely imprisoning the plaintiff at the said location in Kenya and said aircraft;
An order of this honourable court directing the defendants to, jointly and severally, pay to the plaintiff the sum of N20,000,000,000.00 being general and exemplary damages;
“An order of this honourable court directing the defendants to separately write and deliver to the plaintiff an unreserved personal letter of apology.”
Listed in the suit are Abubakar Malami, attorney-general of the federation and Ahmed Abubakar, director-general of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) as the first and second defendants, respectively.
Justice Inyang Ekwo had fixed November 18 for the hearing of the matter.
Former head coach of the Nigeria Super Eagles, Gernot Rohr, has accused Amaju Pinnick, the former Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) president, for being the reason why the team failed to pick a ticket to the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
Rohr who was fired last December after leading the Super Eagles to the playoff round, was replaced with Former Super Eagles defender, Austin Eguavoen.
Eguavoen who took charge of the team in the interim couldn’t qualify them for the world cup.
Speaking with Eagle7FM Sports Radio in an interview Rohr said his sack according to Pinnick was to avert a disaster.
“Pinnick said my dismissal will avert a disaster, but in the end he created the disaster that cost Nigeria the ticket to the World Cup,” he said.
I regret that I did not take my team to win the World Cup, I regret that my players will not be at the World Cup even though they deserve to be there”.
The German said the decision to leave was not his, but was a decision by Pinnick and his board.
“He was punished for this as Nigeria lost the chance to win the AFCON and did not qualify for the World Cup.”
I have worked on the letters of the name SOLUDO, and I truly sympathize with all those who go by that name either as first, second, third or as surname. I’m truly not disrespectful of them nor do I mean any insults or harm. Sincerely my heart goes out to Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo who is the direct subject of this short piece.
The SOLUDO at the core of this effort stands for, SELF OVERRATING LET’S UNHINGED DESTRUCTION OUT. Oftentimes mortal man thinks him/herself exceptional. In Luciferic arrogance mortal man ascribes omniscience to him/herself. In unguarded penchant for kindergarten jealousy mortal man assumes theistic propensities, as he/she dishes out anger and envy ladened prognosis presenting such hubris, tommyrot and gibberish as the product of studied research, like Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo sought to weave a sullied wool over us a few days ago.
The past one week has been a theatre of the absurd for the Governor of Anambra State Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo who rather than concentrate on making the State better than he met it, opted instead for the dance macabre, yes, in an inexplicable frenzy of Pseudo intellectualism he chose an unsolicited fight with H.E Peter Obi who understandably is the rave of the moment on our political amphitheater. May your ego not become your fall. Indeed may SOLUDO never happen to you.
From that Channels TV ‘POLITICS TODAY’ Interview with Proficient Broadcast Anchor Seun Okinbaloye where he described former Governor Peter Obi’s investments in favour of Anambra State as next to nothing, to the “so long a letter/article’ where Soludo not only sort to rubbish the Presidential race of H.E Peter Obi but laborously proceeded to denigrate the entire Nigerian Youth, the Obidient Family and all those seeking a better Nigeria worldwide. In demonic arrogance and fiendish jealousy, Soludo claims to be smarter than the global family of the Obidients. He calls the Movement a Mob. He calls the movement the product of fleeting exuberance and excitement. He thinks himself the most intelligent Nigerian and the most informed political operator alive. But he goofed. May SOLUDO never happen to you.
Even the Peoples Democratic Party the PDP, the All Promises Cancelled, O sorry the All Progressive Congress the APC and the New Nigerian Peoples Party the NNPP ditto three of the four leading political parties in the race for the high office of President come 2023, have not in any way treated or referred to the Peter Obi phenomenon in a condescending manner like the ‘all knowing Soludo’ has. ‘How art thou fallen, Chukwuma Son of Soludo, why has pride and prejudice ensnared you? What happened to you?’. Seriously Speaking Folks, may SOLUDO never happen to you.
Have you read the opinions streaming into the public domain on Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo? Have you seen the statement of Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala the DG of the World Trade Organization? Have you read the one credited to the Former Governor of the Central Bank and the Former Emir of Kano H.R.H Lamido Sanusi? Have you read the one that was ascribed to his in-law the late Dr. Dora Akunyili? You can Google check and find out that none of the damning statements came from the Obidients. That Soludo in his mountain high and unbridled arrogance called the Obidients a ‘mob’ defines his blinding neurosis and unequalled disdain and hate for the most vibrant socio-political movement in our nation’s history. May Soludo never happen to you.
Who will tell Prof Charles Chukwuma Soludo that I’m glad to be a member of the MOB (Movement Of The Beautiful). Who will tell him that we are Beautiful because together with H.E Peter Obi we want to take back our Country for good. Together we want to make NIGERIA beautiful. And together we want to birth and berth a New Deal and a New Day for the masses of our Country. Unfortunately however, the All Knowing Philosopher-King called Charles Chukwuma Soludo thinks we are idiotic narcissists and Nazi. May SOLUDO never happen to you.
Soludo is living in the past but wouldn’t see because his ego is Olympic. His struggle to reduce a Pan Nigerian Ticket ditto the Peter Obi Presidential Campaign to a regional cum South East quest for power belies his claim to logic and clear thought. And his theistic declaration that Peter Obi cannot win the 2023 Presidential election reeks of unguarded jealousy and unreasonable disdain for figures and statistics. I will not bother to educate and or inform the Solomonic SOLUDO, but pray rather that Soludo does not happen to you.
Pride goes before a fall, and a haughty spirit before destruction says the Holy Book. And the letters of the name Soludo speaks to this reality. Yes, Self Overrating Let’s Unhinged Destruction Out SULODO. May revenge and revanchism never blind your heart so bad that you think yourself God. May envy, jealousy and anger never tear into your soul so bad that you think yourself all-knowing. And may you learn some ennobling humility. Indeed may SOLUDO never happen to you.
