"Sir, let us examine your service records. I consider
your generation a very privileged one, indeed. In 1975
at the age of 33, you were appointed the Military
Governor of the North-Eastern State, present day Borno
& Yobe states. In 1976 at the age of 34 you became the
Minister for Petroleum and Natural Resources. In 1978 at
the age of 36 you became the Chairman of the Nigeria
National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). Today the
reverse is the case. Most Nigerians at age of 35 are still
unemployed and still living with parents. Many are still
not married. During your time you were already
Governor at this age. One major reason for this
unfortunate turn of events is that many elders like you
have refused to voluntarily handover the baton to the
next generation. Life should be a relay race where one
runs his race and hands over to the next. In Nigeria
many elders like you have run their races and are still
holding on tenaciously to the baton.
But Sir, I have an important question here for you. The
question is simple, MUST YOU SERVE NIGERIA AS A
PRESIDENT ONLY? IS THERE NO OTHER CAPACITY YOU CAN
SERVE US EXCEPT THE PRESIDENCY? It is very erroneous
to imagine that you can only serve Nigeria only in one
capacity. During the regime of late General Sani Abacha,
you accepted the appointment to serve as the Chairman
of the then Petroleum Trust Fund PTF. The general
opinion was that you served faithfully in this capacity.
Well done Sir! But you never asked Abacha to vacate
office for you as your former subordinate in the army.
Never! In fact that would have been a dangerous move,
if not suicidal. Rather you served faithfully under your
former junior in the army. Sir, imagine if you take on
another job like the Chairman of EFCC or ICPC or NDLEA.
Nigerians actually need you to serve in one of these
capacities much more than they need you in the
Presidency. Mere mentioning your name as Chairman of
EFCC would drive many corrupt men underground. But
you wouldn’t . Either the Presidency or nothing.
When are you going to handover to the next person? It
is either you do it voluntarily or risk disgrace at the
polls.
In 1983 at the age of 41, you became the Head of State.
Most Nigerians in my age have not had the opportunity
to serve, but we still remain committed to the Nigerian
project. You should rather be graceful to God and to
Nigerians for the numerous opportunities that have come
your way to serve Nigerians. Others are begging for just
one opportunity to serve. Sir, you have to accept the
stark reality on ground that you have served your time
already. That is life for you. You run the race, you
handover the baton for others to run, you cannot hold
on to the baton more than is necessary. As a former
head of State you are already a member of the Council
of State Meeting. You have every avenue to channel
your views across. You don’t necessarily have to be in a
front-line role, you can serve in an advisory capacity.
That is still service.
In conclusion, It is crystal clear that you cannot defeat
President Jonathan in a free, fair and credible election,
even in Katsina State. Sentiments aside, Jonathan would
cruise to a landslide victory come February 14th, 2015.
In fairness to you Sir, any of your Children would pose a
serious challenge to Jonathan more than yourself. I do
not see Nigerians electing a 72 year old former Head of
state to lead us in this Digital era. With due respect to
you Sir, you belong to the Analogue age and is not fit as
president in this digital era. This is the blunt truth.
Please do not enter the Guinness book of world records
on a negative note. Losing four consecutive Presidential
election would not augur well for your reputation. It is
in your best interest to assume your position as an elder
statesman and allow others to serve. Nigeria does not
belong to you alone. It belongs to us all"
