First Lady's Comment On Buhari And The Mass Hysteria by Sabinus Eboh

First Lady, Patience Jonathan

Our gentle, soft-spoken Patience Jonathan caused a great stir in the buildup to the 2015 presidential election last two weeks in Cross River State when she insinuated that Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressive Congress, APC Presidential candidate for the 2015 general election in Nigeria, may be suffering from brain damage due to old age and that anybody that mentions change should be stoned.

Since that statement, all hell has been let loose with an exhibition of mass hysteria from the main opposition party.

They APC has reacted by calling her a crude woman with a threat to pull out of the non-violence accord signed with the ruling People’s Democratic Party, PDP in Abuja.

The issuance of threat and violence by the APC anytime aspersion is cast on their candidate smacks of hypocrisy on their part. As far as one could remember, APC has remained the greatest culprit in character assassination and attack on personality instead of facing issues.

If we recall vividly, APC, through Lai Mohammed threw the first stone when they referred to the President as running a ‘clueless’ government. Bisi Akande followed on the heels when he referred to the President as a ‘kindergarten President’, alluding that he is learning on the job.

OBJ's Birthday And A Football Show: The Politics Of Old Age - By Sabinus Eboh

Anybody conversant with Obasanjo’s politics in Nigeria will definitely know where he is coming from. The recent football show by OBJ in the course of celebrating his 78^th birthday is part of his deceptive and diversionary tactics to sway the gullible minds to his selfish plans. Nigerian politicians has always shown that for you to be a politician you must first be a good comedian.

This attribute has been so exhibited by no less a person than OBJ. It was OBJ who during the PDP campaign rally of 2006 in Ogun state, when it was rumored that Yaradua is dead, in the most dramatic and comedic manner put a call through to Yaradua on his sick bed, with his phone on speaker, to the hearing of all present, ask the now infamous question “Umaru are you dead?”  The rest today, is history.
