-Leadership is nobody's birthright. What
happened to the PDP during the elections is an
easy example.


- Be determined and dogged. Even when people
say you are not good enough, keep putting
more effort and trying, that which you seek
might not be far away. Ask the Abraham Lincoln
of Nigeria (Gen. Muhammadu Buhari) for
confirmation.


- Do not underestimate the power of social
media. Put it to good use and you'd be thankful
you ever did. Obama could testify. Also, Buhari
won the elections on that platform even before
the 'main event'.


- Be unpredictable. Have this little air of
mystery around you. Don't play all your cards
faced up. President Jonathan conceded defeat
much to some people's amazement and is been
commended for being a hero of democracy.


- You can't always succeed by going solo.
Sometimes you need people/certain alliances to
help actualize your dream. The ACN-CPC merger
explains it all. PDP would've had a field day if
they (ACN and CPC) decided to stand on their
own or separately as they did in the previous
elections.


- In all your dealings, aspire to be successful.
People would always identify with successful
people. Some accounts on my Twitter
automatically started chanting # Change and
# SaiBaba after preaching # GejWinsIt and
# Transformation this past few months.


- Don't try to make others look bad just to
elevate or make yourself seem good/important.
It is bad for business and life in totality
because it could backfire. Elder Orubebe's
display was an act to cast the INEC chairman in
bad light and prolly get commendations/
validation from his party or a "handshake" from
Mr. President but a few words from Prof. Jega
puts him in his place.


- Finally, like Professor Jega, your reply to
some adult's childishness should be calculated,
short and straight to the point. Don't throw
words around to people who don't need them,
just maintain your composure. Silence
sometimes speaks volumes.
