Nice throw back photos.

However, 2 years later in 1975, while he went to attend the OAU summit in Uganda hosted by Late Idi Amin the head of state of Uganda, the smiling General Yakubu Gowon was toppled in a coup by Late General Murtala Muhammed.

Nobody knows tomorrow.

That is why President Buhari and Oshiomole should take it easy.

Anything can happen before 2023.

Even Olabode George has cautioned over the over hitting of the polity ahead of 2023.
