Ayo Fayose – Are You Still There?
Mbok the original revolution man has been quiet for too long o. Or does this have anything to do with his ongoing case? Whatever the case is we are missing you o. Even if for nothing else, the constant drama and theatrics that come with your politics. Who can ever forget the T-shirt – ‘EFCC I Am Here’ and the so many acrobatic displays that kept the political environment alive? Today we have only Dino Melaye playing in that space and even that one sef has limited himself to Kogi where he is trying to be governor.
Hope no problem my brother, as a neighbour when I even jog pass your house everything is quiet even the flag that used to fly is now torn and droopy. You should be talking small small even if not as loud as before make you no annoy the judge, just a little quip once in a while so that we can laugh small. Pele Egbon Mi. it will be well. point: the Igbo vote in Lagos is now very critical as can be seen at the last two election cycles in the state. The Igbo ‘ control’ some very strong voting enclaves and they also control resources that can shift an election. It was our Lord Asiwaju that first began to curry this vote with the appointment of some of ‘their’ people to his cabinet. We also have seen some of ‘them’ win elections in the state. What this means in essence is that this appointment is a continuous push at the strategy of securing the Igbo vote and giving them a sense of belonging. So the issue is now where does your candidacy stand going by your pedigree and your take on issues? Will this your appointment be a strong voice for the Igbo in the affairs of the state or would it just be a rubberstamp that would just be looking like mumu when issues that concern them are discussed? Well, it is really up to you which side of the divide you will stand but for me, I am not holding my breath. God bless you Sir.
