OBASANJO,ATIKU AND THE REST OF US


Did you see the pictures of Ex-president Olusegun Obasanjo and his former Vice,Atiku Abubakar,at the lecture marking the 10th Anniversary of the death of General Shehu Musa Yar'Adua in Abuja?I know some people would have expressed shock at the picture which showed the two men in a more friendlier disposition than expected,after all those 'fire-for-fire' jabbins we witnessed after the centre fell apart between both men.Someone said they must have been having a good laugh on Nigerians who are yet to understand the nature of Nigerian polithiefcians,I mean Politicians,who are only keen about personal interest and nothing more.A Nigerian politician only cries out when his interest is threatened.For all those who expected OBJ and ATK to square up a la Samuel Peter and Oleg Maskaev style,sorry for the dissapointment.I only hope that this recociliation smiles are deeply rooted from the hearts.
