Patriotism is not about bringing down those in power so that you can replace them, neither is about destroying the country so you can take over and start rebuilding, its about doing your best for the country irrespective of who is in power.
El-Rufai's activities in recent
time does not portray patriotism
but desperation by a man seeking
to return to the corridor of power.

While am not here to defend Some of the President's policies ( God
knows am still angry that i have to
pay almost double to fill my tank), i am however weary of the
implication of belittling the office of the president.

The truth is that the ascension of President Goodluck
Jonathan to the presidency have
proved that any one of us can
become the leader of this great
country tomorrow. If we are not
mindful, we may have destroyed that office before our turn.
President Jonathan may mot be an articulate leader or an orator in an era of 'efizzy', but even our parents are not all as erudite as President Barack Obama. Does that disqualify them from aspiring to the highest position in the land? Let us criticise
his policies, let us make useful
suggestion, but we must stop
ourselves from being tools in the
hands of political jobbers like El- Rufai and his cohort who can only
function in the corridor of power. Or
how do you explain that since they vacated their political office, they have not made any meaningful contribution to our development as a country in their private capacity, but have continued to scheme to return back to power, moving from one political party to the other.
Be wise, use your head and shine your eyes.

stpat1: I no even know am and he expects Mopol to know him. lol

shymmex: I'll like to slap him as well...

I remember Jim Iyke was slapped In South London in 2005 for being arrogant... Since then, every time he comes to London - he keeps his arrogance in his pocket.

Julius Agwu was also slapped in London as well...

It seems all these naija guys need some good slaps to get them in order...
