''Let's get this cleared up!
I never shouted Change!
I knew Buhari's kind of mind would never bring the kind of Change APC promised.
I have experienced APC's 8 woeful years, but nothing took me by surprise.
(Do you know I used to do some cartoons ahead and wait for the scenario to happen before I publish)
It is that easy to predict the people who are ruling over you.
I knew from Day 1 Buhari would not be able to fight corruption;
I knew he would not be able to fight insecurity;
I knew he would not be able save the economy;
I didn't have to be clairvoyant to know these things. The signs were all there.
The signs are still there about the people waiting on the wings to succeed him.
If you like, allow sentiments becloud your sense of judgement.
We are suffering the consequences of the poor judgement some of you made 8 years ago. No one was immune to it, none will be immune to it.
But I tell you one thing, should you choose to reinforce this failure, I won't do the wailing for you this time around.
In 2015, you were more interested in who you voted out than whom you voted in, so you voted with your feet. 2023 is a time to vote with your conscience.
So before you drop that vote on Feb 25, look around you today.
Check the headlines.
Check the obituary pages.
Are you satisfied with how your decision 8 years ago turned out? Are you okay with what the people you gave your mandate to are doing with it?
But like they say..Some people are wise, some are otherwise.
The choice is yours.
As for me and my household

The Economist gives Teanubu a smackdown:
''Mr Obi stands apart from the two main-party candidates in other ways, too. He is an energetic 61-year-old, who comes across as intellectually open. His campaign events, for instance, include town-hall meetings where he encourages voters Image
to ask tough questions. By contrast Mr Tinubu, a frail 70-year-old who has skipped several big campaign events, recently caused ructions at Chatham House, a think-tank in London, when he declined to answer any questions at all, deflecting them to people on his campaign.
His campaign manifesto consists largely of meaningless platitudes (“our cities and towns will witness a level of industrial activity unprecedented in our nation’s history”) spiced up by senseless policy proposals. '

''Even in the manner of his campaign, @PeterObi has shown what is possible under his presidency: in less than two years, a man without a ‘structure’ mobilized an entire nation with social media, recorded speeches, and the power of personal example. More than that, he has proven Image
his ability to draw quality talent, in a campaign team that has so far delivered more mileage than the reach of bullion vans.
Dangerously effective, Obi moves like he’s not moving. He mainstreamed diaspora electioneering in our politics and his opponents had to play catch-up.
While they avoided the media, he took every chance. For the first time, young people have embraced their power as the real kingmakers. Today the streets are showing what is possible if leadership believes and thinks outside the box.
This is not how to become a front runner in a

''A true story
When I resumed in Abuja, Obasanjo had set up the BMIU headed by Oby Ezekwesili. It brought a lot of transparency to procurement. A friend of mine had an office at Zone 4. Sometimes we would prepare bids together at his office.
One day I was with him.
A particular person was threatening to kill his boss. A driver. I heard the conversation and asked my friend if he knew the driver. He said yes. That the driver has been threatening that for a while.
Why? That the Oga would collect both of their allowances for travel and not
give the driver his share. I can’t confirm if what the driver said was true.
One day, my friend came into my flat. At a point in our conversation, he mentioned that the driver was dead. He had driven himself and the boss under a trailer on an assignment to Lokoja.

''Can a child with no previous medical condition collapse and die?
The answer is Yes.
During sporting activities, these are the differentials to look at.
1. Heat exhaustion/ Heat stroke:When the child’s physical activity exceeds water intake, and heat builds up to very dangerous
levels in the body.
This is the reason why there is a lot of water supply and glucose during sporting events.
2. Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
An abnormality of the heart muscle which never shows up, and gives the impression of a person without any medical history.
This condition is usually discovered by coincidence during an Echocardiogram for normal people, or a scheduled test for athletes.
The only other time the condition is found out is after the person has had a cardiac arrest or died suddenly on the field.

“Asiwaju that I sat with for two hours, he slept most of the time, it was Bisi Akande that I was really talking to. Most importantly he is not only physically unfit, he is mentally unfit, whether we want it or not, this is the truth. It’s not that I hate him, Image
I respect him because I have heard of one or two people that he assisted which is good.
“But when you talk of leadership of over two hundred million people you know that if you remove tribal sentiments, you know that he is incapable, those that will rule are those around him.
This is the reality. He is mentally deranged – I said it!
“I sat with him for two hours in London, when you talk of green, he will give you an answer of red, he can’t even decipher,he has very serious dementia,I believe he has Alzheimer’s because he cannot even hold a cup of tea
