A MAN OF THE PEOPLE 💪🏽

The race for who will occupy Aso Rock in 2023 is gradually gaining momentum. In the past month the 2 major parties had their primaries and elected their flag bearers. There was also a pleasant surprise which no one anticipated. Peter Obi moved to Labour Party from PDP just a few days to the PDP primaries. A move akin to that of a football player on the last day of the January transfer window. With this, Peter Obi took the formerly unknown Labour Party from obscurity to the 3rd force in the country in less than 24hrs. Scintillating. Isn't it?Although, he said he left the PDP, quote and unquote, due to some practices that do not sit well with his persona. I believe part of it was the delegate buying and the fact that he knew he stood no chance if he wasn't willing to conform. Smart man, I must say. He didnt take the famous saying by Socrates "Man, know thyself!" for granted. He realised the odds were stacked against him quickly enough to port like "Saka" from Etisalat to MTN.In a turn of events, this unexpected move seems to be the best thing to have happened to Nigerians in the first half of 2022.
