Bashir bragged and lamented that, "The spiritual and physical role I played towards the reelection of this government against all odds can only be adequately compensated with a choice office and not what the governor deems fit for me."

Seeing this makes me remember how one of the past US presidents, James Abram Garfield, was killed

madridguy:
On July 2, 1881, Garfield was shot at the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Station in Washington D.C. by Charles J. Guiteau, a disappointed office seeker. The wound was not immediately fatal for Garfield, but he succumbed on September 19, 1881. Guiteau was executed for the murder of Garfield in June 1882. Some historians choose to forgo listing Garfield in rankings of U.S. presidents because of the short duration of his presidency.

Tolexander:

Hmmm. If this news is true then I wonder how an individual can hold the chief executive of a state hostage. It's as if the individual is more powerful than the chief executive. Then we have to ask ourselves what sort of country we live in. That is a country where individuals are more powerful than the state and it's machinery.

SMH.
