This is very brilliant.

IBB, Obasanjo, Jonathan, and Buhari are perfect epitomes of what one can become when in or out of power.

......someone who doesn’t fear them, expects no favours from them, and can tell them uncomfortable truths without fear of consequences........

Toe-holder should be the work of majority but then every man has a price and sadly those in power determine it cost..

Power causes people to lose their capacity for empathy. This is a surprising scientific corroboration of American historian Henry Adams’ popular wisecrack about how power is “a sort of tumour that ends by killing the victim’s sympathies.”

This power self get power o!
Na to learn the art and science of mastering power so that it won't intoxicate and control one o!

Because managing people isn't easy. The pressure on leaders is also a problem.

Everyone want a piece of them, some times, you have to be hard on those type of people.

Anyway, there are also people who become power drunk when they get to a place of authority, apart from them, to be sincere, you can not be nice and be in leadership, you will taken for a ride.
He is talking about being incompetent in a way that things that you once thought were abnormal begins to look a little normal.
When one becomes completely absolve that one loose touch of the actually problem of people he/she went in to serve.

Does a true empathic ruler needs institutions to checkmate them..

Before they do the right thing?

Some of the best rulers in history where not elected..

It's just like saying a man needs the fear of the wrath of a vengeful god..

Before he does the noble and correct thing..
