According to a report by Daily Post, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has disclosed why he would fight and work against the presidential ambition of Bola Tinubu, the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC. Ortom explained that he would urge his people to vote against Tinubu for insisting on continuing with the policies of President Muhammadu Buhari if elected as Nigeria’s next president.
It is high time all political office holders in Nigeria stop the politics of Calumny and embraced society politics. They should rather present their candidates to Nigerians and explain what they can do differently from other candidates. Tinubu has declared and his ambition is becoming everyday discussions among politicians in Nigeria.
Some are attacking him and those who are campaigning massively for the realization of his ambition in 2023. But some politicians are calling Tinubu names over a bullion van sighted in his street as if the earth-shaking victory of APC in Lagos after Oyo has fallen to PDP in the last presidential election fell from heaven.
When he was championing the cause of democracy and fighting the military Juntas with his resources and blood, no one asked how old he was, what was his medical condition and how he made his money. When Tinubu staked everything he had in the cause of freedom, accommodated NADECO members in exile with him in his London residence and paid for the upkeep of scores of other Nigerian exiles elsewhere in Europe and America.
Practically expended his entire resources to assure the sustenance and triumph of the cause, nobody asked how he made his money. People are asking about the age of a man whose records are in all the schools he attended both in Nigeria, abroad and in all the companies he has worked for both in Nigeria and abroad as well as in many official government records?
