When God is with you, who can be against you
Americans has chosen Republican nominee Donald J Trump as the 45th president elect of the United States. The results brought joy to many and for millions of others dismay. The greatness of America democracy reveals itself once more. Though the world was against Trump, God was with him and most importantly Americans was with him. Despite the multiple scandals, including allegations of sexual conducts, Media Blackmails Trump never allowed the gang up to distract him from his ultimate goal. He knows what he wants and he fought for it. The mind is everything what you think you become... Despite all this game play, Trump has been to convince Americans that he is the right man for the Job. One of the major lesson Trump victory Portends to majority of African countries most especially Nigeria is that election is not a do or die affair. Trump accepted the fact that America has been divided and in his acceptance speech trump called on Americans to unite in order to make America great again. Though politics divides, election and campaigns are over it is time for the people to unite so as to build and manage a better economy for all. But in present day Nigeria Reverse is the case Violence here and there less than 6 weeks to the rerun polls in Rivers state there are allegations of fake printing of result sheets and so called political godfathers planning on how to rig the election to favor their desire candidate. The most painful of all is the upcoming governorship election in Ondo state. The state is in total blackout because no one knows what is going to happen as a result of some godfathers playing god.
Trump makes history as a political outsider with no political or military background as against the norm in America Political scene but he shook the world. A few days to the elections the APC led federal government declared its support for Clinton forgetting the God factor even a popular cleric predicted victory for Clinton but the voice of the people is the voice of God. less than 3 years to the 2019 general elections some power brokers are creating confusion and setting up evil agenda for their selfish gains forgetting that there is a God in heaven who watches over the affairs of men
In America history, this was the most divisive presidential election campaign ever. But surprisingly no violence and no bloodshed except for some post-election protest which is partly peaceful the manner in which democratic nominee Hilary Clinton conceded defeated is highly acceptable and she took the right step in the right direction. Fmr president Goodluck Ebele Jonathan also conceded defeat to President Mohammad Buhari and we hope and pray the trend continues in Nigeria and Africa Political hemisphere.. INEC and the security agencies has to rise up to the challenge and live up to to the challenge of conducting free and fair elections that are violence free
Nigeria belongs to us all, No outsider will build this country for us, America has its Problems, all Countries in the world today are facing one challenge or the other we must rise up to fix this country or it consumes us all. A major lesson of the us election is that if America will be great again Americans will take the decision and if Nigeria will be great again, Nigerians must take that decisions too..
On whether most of the campaign statements of Donald J Trump will be implemented, there is no cause for Alarm only time will tell.
