Yemi Osinbajo : Loyalty and National Cohesion

-

Let me start by sending a major appreciati­on to the person of the Acting President as we begin to prepare for the eventual return of the President for his continued loyalty and the way his dispositio­n has saved the country from national strife. He is truly a different person and special. Maybe his height has a lot to do with it, we cannot say. The other day he was reported as saying that it would be suicidal for him to threaten the leadership of the National Assembly considerin­g the sizes of the leaders that is Saraki and Dogara. I beg to disagree, if you have been watching wrestling, the American type, you will see size really does not matter as you can take down any one once you have strategy, tactics and determinat­ion. Osinbajo in his firm belief in constituti­onality and structure has held the country firmly in the absence of his principal. He has not shown any kind of ambition or naked lust for power unlike some people we know thereby keeping at bay the wolves or was it hyena and vulture as madam called them the other day. Nigerians should take a cue from this. I truly really respect the man and send him my well wishes. As for any physical duel with people taller or bigger than you, all I will say is not to show fear, train a lot and drink ágbo’ two days before the fight. Then on the fight day, do not go into the other room o, jog for 20 kilometres and do skipping rope for one hour before the fight. If you ask me, go for Dogara first as Saraki will be a tough opponent. As you circle Dogara, go for his left leg first. The left leg is his weak point. Grab it and he will be on the floor, then jump on his chest and sit on it. You can achieve all these in seconds. Remember do not ever go near him because one punch from him, na to look for new acting President o. My lord you have done well and God will bless you, Nigerians owe you so much.
