Nigerians heaved a sigh of relief
today, as President Muhammadu Buhari turned up at the APC secretariat and did
what had in the last two years been unthinkable—restored sanity and pride.
Before now, the atmosphere had been riotous, divisive and set on flames. The
administrative structure had been hijacked by some lycanthropic individuals who
fancied themselves as demi-gods; their style of administration was no less kakistocractic and many trembled at the fierceness
of their negative decisions visiting
prospective politicians alike -whether paperweight or heavyweight with searing
pains and trauma. You need not be an enemy, but once you are perceived to be a
remote threat, then expect the most fiendish attack to amputate whatever shred
of reputation you had. Ambode in Lagos was as impressive as he was superlative;
his aura was exemplary but at the end, they struck; a sledge hammer was applied
to halt his rising popularity—though temporarily. Bukola Saraki—you all know him—tasted some of
the most vicious and monstrous attacks ever known when he came
under accusations for allegedly stealing the senate crown. ; The dragnet even
extended to the Executive where Ngige was assaulted and ordered around; but the
veteran Ngige—himself a previous kidnap victim under Obasanjo—would not succumb
to the predators at the then secretariat. Those
of us watching from television
sets were not spared either. The prehistorian tactics deployed by the now
ousted overlords reminded us of Sobibor,
Bergen-Belson the German
concentration camps deployed by the Germans to rout nay suppress their enemies.
The APC secretariat was that terrible. Before Obaseki—a sitting governor—was
forcibly edged out by one who had appointed himself as an ombudsman it was
clear that reason and common sense had failed. So the timely intervention of
President Buhari has now stoked out the fires. See what recalcitrance can do;
today, the APC has moved on without the duo. Who says no one is dispensable? 
. The Bishop is young, vibrant and full of vitality; once he mounts the Altar, let’s say 10.oclock in the morning, he hardly gets down till hours later; he conducts Service with consummate passion, enthusiasm and rapt attention to minute details; he quotes the scriptures eloquently, sings to the admiration of the worshippers and preaches with fiery candor that reminds you of the inimitable father of prosperity.. Bishop David Oyedepo! What a coincidence, the younger and the old bear the same name! What follows next follows next is prophesy, prophesy upon prophesy! He says “if there is a man to pray there is a God to answer”! Not done, the young powerful man of God is angry: “This error must be corrected”, he charges when service gets hotter. The “error” he is talking about are legion: protracted barrenness, stagnation, limitation, unexplained difficulties, poverty and a life of non achievement! Many of the worshipers are those who are tired having visited several churches and Pastors...
