The Power Behind The Throne by GESE: 7:36pm On May 17, 2008
Have ever pondered over the possibility for the same set of men to have continuosly dominate the axis of Power in this country?

Why hasn't the opposition, despite severalcoup attempts, a civil war, an annulled election, and several rallies of civil disobidience, been able to put a stop to this perpetuation of power in the hands of a few? Why hasn't the local intellectual community- so revered for its doggedness and creative acumen- been able to figure out a way of dislodging this power establishment? And indeed why, in a nation of such consumately educated people, hasn't a university graduate ever ruled the nation in all its 48 year history? (Actual rlers: Balewa; Ironsi; Gowon; Murtala; Obasanjo; Shagari; Buhari; Babangida; Abacha; Abdulsalami; Obasanjo; Yaradua),

let us delebrate and see the twist maybe, just maybe we can start a revolution,
