Bolaji Muhammed: Why Obasanjo’s farewell to the PDP spells Goodluck for Nigerians

4 Min Read

Nigerians finally have an opportunity to rid themselves from decades of military rule and recycled rule.

The opportunity first came when Obasanjo tore his PDP membership card. That singular act signaled the end of the era of godfatherism of the worst type, military godfathers in Nigeria.

Nigerians are known for saying one thing and doing the other. In one sentence we will say we want change, and in the next we will say we want the same military dictator that brutalized many of our people less than half a century ago. The irony of this is lost on many Nigerians in a trance as they dance to a ballad played by the Pied Piper of Bourdillon.

Earlier today news that a security aide to Gombe Governor, , one Mr. Abdullahi Muhammad, also tore his PDP card for the camera made the rounds.

His grouse with the PDP was reported to be that the national cake is not being shared very well.

Some economic analysts have said that a Buhari presidency would drain Nigeria financially and economically because suddenly another 10 million or so Nigerians would be gunning for the National Cake which is still largely funded by oil wells in the Niger Delta.

So this battle and soul for the seat of power which is attracting recruits to the APC is not based on merit but based on “this is supposed to be our turn to eat the national cake.” Anyhow you slice it, it spells disaster for more Nigerians.

Nigeria’s 2015 elections can be likened to the crucifixion of Christ when Pontius Pilate gave the Jews what he thought would be an easy decision, Barabas and Jesus Christ. The rest is history. But Nigeria will learn from history and not repeat the mistakes of our predecessors.

These godfathers in the military whom we have a loathsome yet loving relationship with will end at the polls this year, when GEJ will be rewarded with a second term by the grace of God.

So in one fell swoop, Nigerians will have kicked out their lingering military godfathers. Hallelujah.

It sincerely needs to be done. Buhari can’t change Nigeria. Only Nigerians collectively can change Nigeria but alas Nigerians are a lazy people. We would rather hire a taskmaster to do it for us. It’s a homicidal and retrogressive system of politics.

We live in a country where the opposition leader has become so powerful, the Chairman of Alimosho Local Government was caught on tape performing a voodoo ritual complete with human blood, all because he thought Tinubu would grow disgruntled with him. Strange and perilous times indeed.

Nigerians should return to the PDP enmasse because with the self-resignation from PDP by Obasanjo, we are going to a better place.

Many corrupt politicians have already left for APC. Even though the difference between APC and PDP may be as little as that of stealing and corruption, perhaps we can solidify our positioning in a better era.

Jonathan should be made a second term President. He has the desire to transform Nigeria and he is not bothered by godfathers and cronies again. He will surely move Nigeria forward. Let us reward him for the small strides he has made even as we pray for more. Things will get better.

Let’s move Nigeria forward.
