On Monday February 28 2011 Ijeoma Nwogwugwu, a columnist and the big lady of Thisday Newspapers told the nation that our leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu is playing God in Lagos and Nigerian politics. According to Ijeoma, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu has made himself the Leviathan, the hippopotamus, the omnipotent, the omniscience, the ominipresence and the octopus of Lagos and Nigerian politics. For Ijeoma, Bola Ahmed Tinubu should “get off his high horse and stop pushing his luck. Otherwise he will wake up one day to discover that the emperor has been stripped bare”


Now, before I go on to educate Ijeoma on the phenomenon called Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, I will like Ijeoma Nwogwugwu to go and speak to Comrade Kayode Komolafe, another columnist with Thisday and a bosom friend of our own Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and she will learn that the biggest lesson that Rome was not built in a day. If Kayode Komolafe will be frank enough to open up to her on Asiwaju complex kingdom, his huge networks, his teeming associates, and followers, Ijeoma will run 40-40 to go and make friends with Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Since Asiwaju made in roads into the tortuous and murky waters of Nigerian politics in the early 90s, I have been a committed and ardent follower of this Nigeria patriot, sage, colossus and I have not been disappointed for once. Asiwaju may have made some mistakes as a mortal but his good works far outweigh his mistakes a million times. I have met leaders in my life but Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu remains a different person with an infinite capacity to provide leadership even in difficult situations. Leaders that can match Asiwaju in actions but deeds are rare to be found.



For twelve years now, I have been crying that if we have one replica of Asiwaju in the North and the East, this country will sit up. Over the years it has been very difficult for me to find out what is in this man that pushes him to try to break his back for Nigerians and Nigeria. What will make a man to devote his life time, all his energy, all his money to work for humanity? What is it in the world that will make Nigeria’s greatest minds to sit around the Asiwaju of Africa anywhere he finds himself? What in the world will make the poorest of the poor to find solace in Asiwaju’s house or his office without molestation? Some people think Asiwaju is a Yoruba leader alone but go to his house on a certain day to see things for yourself.



I have been privileged on several occasions to wine and dine with this leader and to my utmost surprise he eats little and drinks little. Over the years, I have discovered that what gives Asiwaju peace of mind is the people around him, more especially when they are people with cerebral minds, people with huge brains, the bean counters, the great thinkers. For Asiwaju, attitude is the magic word. He treats every person as the most important person on earth. In his small book titled: Lead The Field, Earl Nightingale says that “people doing an outstanding job and getting outstanding results are outstanding people and that is because of an outstanding attitude” The truth is that you do not just show up accidentally in the world series. The price of leadership must be paid to the letter. Hear Earl Nightingale again: “The outstanding leader in any field is societies most valued person. Every organization needs leadership. You do not raise morale; it filters down from the top. People will always reflect the attitude of the leader. Behind every success is an outstanding leader. This leader works early and late and when not working is thinking and planning”. Ijeoma may not know this: Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu lays too much emphasis on ideas and values and has very deep organized focus on goals and objectives.

So Joe Igbokwe is now licking Tinubu's arse? This is what an unwary Igbo man turns into when he lives all his life in Lagos. Soon, Joe will begin to dobale like
Yorubas

I hope Tinubu does not send assassins after Ijeoma, if she lives in Lagos too.
