GEJ IS NOT LUCKIER THAN OBJ

GEJ IS NOT LUCKIER THAN OBJ

And for people who keep saying GEJ got into his position by luck, let us compare and contrast him and Obasanjo and so you will see it is only because GEJ is south south that such mountains are made of molehills.

1977: Obasanjo is president only because Murtala died. His deputy Shehu Musa Yar'Adua is said to have been so powerful OBJ feared him and handed over to Yar"Adua's fellow blue blood Shehu Shagari even when there should have been a run off or by election between Awolowo and Shagari as Shagari did not meet the constitutional requirement of vote spread.

1999 OBJ who should have been killed by virtue of a law he promulgated that says if you hear of a coup, you should be killed as well and for which he killed many, is spared by Abacha thanks to the Pope we believe. He is in jail and Babangida and the conveners of PDP decided to pick a man who was battling for his life in prison and make a clear path to presidency with no Northerner contesting against him unlike GEJ who had the very mighty Buhari...and it was handed to OBJ on a silver platter only because Abiola was Yoruba and Ogun like him even though OBJ was among those who said "Abiola is not the Messiah"

And many people believe OBJ got credit for taking Onisha even when Adekunle or so did all the work during the civil war.

So now tell me how GEJ's case is different. Did they not both benefit from the death of their bosses? Did Obasanjo really contest in 1999? Was GEJ's contest against Buhari not more brutal? WHY THEN THE Bleep ARE PEOPLE SAYING GEJ GOT THERE BY LUCK AND SAY NOTHING OF OBASANJO WHO DID SAME THING AND TWICE?

Now unlike most people who rant stupidly against luck, I join others in quoting Lucky Luciano the great american gangster that survived all attacks and many say by luck (he never really said it though) "I rather be lucky than good"
So I repeat. GEJ is not luckier than OBJ. So the next time people open their mouths to say GEJ got to power by luck, say to them

1. So did OBJ how come you never mention that?

2. Is your own God asleep? Why aren't you "lucky" and be president of your cell group how much more president of Nigeria

3. tell him this quote "chance favours the prepared mind." If GEJ or OBJ were dulling in their father's house in Otueke or Egba respectively, would they be your president?

But I know you will not tell them. You will stupidly join to berate God's blessing on a man and his destiny instead of asking God to elevate you too.

Nonsense,who is she?

It depends on the customs and traditions of where you come from.In certain customs in northern nigeria,cousins actually get married but in the south most customs forbid it.In china and some asian countries,cousins can actually get married.But generally it is the customn and tradition of where you come from that determines whether it is right or wrong.

It was a council of state meeting he attended not a,private social call and in any case even if he attends a private meeting with the president it does not affect any decision he would take.he is the governor of a state and there are things that affect his state which he may want to discuss privately with the president

Omexonomy: What is oshiomole doing at Gej house. Buhari and tinunbu most not hear this. Moderators please dont move this to the front page. Let us cover oshiobaba smelling yansh

Chrisbenogor: One very annoying guy that made my last three month sojourn in Lagos state hell.

How?

Fashola misplaced his priorities on this one.of what benefit is the kardashian visit to the people of lagos state?what economic benefits would be derived from this visit?I think these are the factors the governor should have considered before spending the state resources.the money could have been better put by the amuwo odofin local govt into the repair of the roads in festac and satelite town.
