At the ongoing ministerial screening at the national
assembly, the senator representing Adamawa north,
Monday chronically recounted how Rauf Aregbesola, the
then governor of Osun State, gave him (Abbo), his monthly
salary to contest for chairmanship position in his
hometown.
Senator Elisha Abbo
Abbo comically fumbled with the story, noting that
Aregbesola whom he described as a kind, detribalised and
honest Nigerian, should take a bow and go.
His words, “I want to join my colleagues from Osun and the
entire south-west to extol the virtue of this great Nigerian,”
he said.

“I remember in 2012 when I contested for the chairmanship
of my local government as a very tiny young man; I visited
you in GRA, Ikeja in your house. I never knew you and you
asked me to come in and I explained my problems and you
told me to come to the government house and meet you.
“When I got there, I thought I would stay there for three
days without seeing you. I filled a form, you saw my name
and ushered me into your office upstairs and you gave me
the whole of your salary that month to go to Adamawa and
contest election.
“Today, to the grace of God, I am one of the people
confirming your nomination. I want to enjoin my colleagues
to please allow this detrabilised, honest Nigerian to take a
bow and go and also ask of Mr President of Nigeria to give
you a very big ministry. God bless you, sir.”

Naija politicians can school the devil when it comes to lies. In fact, devil na learner for where these guys dey.

The slapping senator rose from grass to grace but it is unfortunate that power has changed him. Truly power corrupts but absolute power corrupts absolutely
