RED LETTER DAY: RESURRECTION OF TRUE DEMOCRACY

FELLOW NIGERIANS.....Personally, I think the ousted President Jonathan deserves an accolade and applaud for accepting his sour fate (even before official declaration) in good terms and also honouring the collective decision of the masses. He is an hero of peace.He was a man once loved by all because of his name GOODLUCK, which we all thought would be registered on Nigeria's near-worse condition. But 6 years was enough to pray for change. I could still rekindle my love him, but for the group he pitched his tent with. Maybe things would get rosy in the future if he leaves the People Deceiving People clique. My regards to the ever-busy Madam Patience.

Baba Buhari, our President-elect, Nigerians have irresistibly given you their mandate, support, voice, blood and sweat. This is because of your enviably-impeccable record of integrity-cum-uprightness. Please don't ever let us down! Don't even think of it! Don't ever give room for those parties to make a mockery of this resurrection of true democracy. You already know the areas that need serious and urgent attention -economy diversification, job creation, Boko Haram insurgency, power among others. Pending the time you are on that hot seat, always bear in mind that this is a New Democracy where Nigerians possess the ultimate power to hire and fire any political leader.

Master Jega, I doff my hat to you and your INEC team! Exceptionally, I greatly admire your unmovable calmness, composure and determination (even when Orubebe and the "blind" prof from Rivers state tried to pour sand in our meal). Also worthy of mention is the high level of professionalism, objectivity, clarity, precision and transparency with which you conducted, collated and declared election results. You're truly a good son of Mama Nigeria.

Finally, you and I should support this new government so that we all enjoy the solid dividends of democracy. Ethnicity and tribalism should be kicked out. We should not stop praying for our Fatherland. Our votes should not be in vain! If this project fails, we shall all suffer for it, irrespective of your party or state of origin. Be wise!!!
