@ OP what are you insinuating ? |

• Obafemi Awolowo was 74 during his last attempt at presidency in 1983. • Nnamdi Azikiwe was 79 when he contested for presidency in 1983. In conclusion, I am not an apostle for recycling old politicians but I am averse to people like Ayo Fayose pushing twisted and one-sided history in our faces. I just want to show that all over the world senior citizens get elected and most of them see their tenure through. In fact a few of them die in office. Only Tôn Đức Thắng of Vietnam died in office. You can research this fact. Ironically none of dead presidents on Fayose’s statics in the Punch was up to 70 as at the time of their death. This shows how confused this Ekiti governor is. Please let us contribute to knowledge, the fact that some elements are privileged to be in seat of power doesn’t mean we cannot engage intelligently. People like Ayo Fayose should be told that the white didn’t hide things in books for black people like us. Let the game continue, we will serve them while it is hot. 3 Likes 1 Share |

And what has been the fate of those countries you mentioned? Non of them are better than Nigeria. Their old presidents are not able to lead them to greater heights. Madella knew he was too old, that was why he resigned, not because he was too nice. How progressive and developed are these countries governed by old me? They are all struggling African countries, and can't measure with Nigeria economic wise. I thought you would name the presidents of USA, GERMANY, CHINA etc. Please, show me a developed country governed by an old man, only then, I can vote for Buhari. And again, were those old men also certificateless? |

All in a bid to sell an "old school ruler" from the past. Most of those names you have mentioned are dictators in modern times, running aground their less developed countries(relative to nigeria). |

My only problem is the adjective "Great" you used. Kindly highlight what was "great" about the bunch you just listed. Save for Mandela whose greatness was really attributed to his pre- presidency struggle against apartheid and the 27 years imprisonment he suffered for it. His not running for a second term made him and sealed his fate as an icon. The others are just... |
