NIGERIAN POLITICS: THE LUCKILY LUCKIES, LUCKILY UNLUCKIES AND THE UNLUCKIES
By: Ekeledo Kelechi Hart If you are conversant with people and politics in Nigeria, you will agree that some people are luckily lucky, some luckily unlucky while others are not just lucky. Examples of the three categories are hereby delineated below. (Note, this is base on observations and personal opinion of the writer). LUCKILY LUCKY 1. Chief Olusegun Matthew Aremu Obasanjo. He needs no introduction. Arguably the most favoured politician in Africa. Twice, he has been the number one citizen of the most populous back nation. First as a uniform man, second as elected. And all recorded a huge success. Failure has never known him as he retired from active politics without losing any election bid. He has also seated and unseated Presidents and Governors. Best still, he is alive, hearty and healthy. What an uncommon favour. 2. Chief Theodore Ahamefule Orji.
