I disagree because Oloriburuku ni gbogbo won. If they like, they can go and launch a digital Library at the Bermuda Triangle, Tinubu WILL NEVER BECOME PRESIDENT IN NIGERIA.

PART 2: A little about Chief Bisi Akande

After the 2003 elections, we had erroneously thought that Chief Akande was placed to provide leadership in Yorubaland at some point given his performance in office and ideological clarity with a tinge of intellectual underpinning. He authored a book on restructuring with an understanding of our issues. I drove to his home in Ibadan regularly  and we travelled abroad together on a few occasions to meetings with Yorubas in diaspora.

When we approached him to complain about the strangeness of Tinubu Leadership Academy to Yoruba values, he agreed to seek an appointment with him. He soon got the appointment and we agreed to meet in his house before proceeding to Bourdilon. We articulated all the issues and we moved.

On our delegation were Hon. Wale Oshun, Mr. Jimi Agbaje, Mr. Tola Mobolurin, Prince Oye Oyewumi, Mr. Demola Oyinlola, Mr. Adedeji Zacch among others. On getting to Tinubu, we met Professors Segun Gbadegesin and Ropo Sekoni with him. It became a chatting session as we sat down.

It was when Tinubu was planning the Ambode treatment for then Lagos Governor, Mr. Babatunde Fashola whom he railed and railed against. He said he was not going to allow him a second term as he blocked all the drainages he made for himself before leaving office with droplets now coming to him while Fashola’s own channels were flowing in torrents.

He added that he had now seen the thief who can steal better than THE thief. I cut in at that stage to remind him that he told me in 2006 when he was going to foist Fashola on the party that he managed all his assets while he was in exile without a penny missing and he replied, “I was just marketing him then”.

Prof. Sekoni pleaded with him to sheathe his sword and allow Fashola to run for a second term. He added that Tinubu should know that he is the elder in the dispute with the greatest responsibility to bring amicable resolution.

Tinubu looked at Prof. and said he reminded him of the case of a widow who lost her husband and people were coming to commiserate with her over the tragic loss.

The first group to come were elderly and that after all the commiseration they ended by asking the lady to try and eat something as starving herself would not raise her dead husband. They took their leave after sometime.

Then came her peers who also went through all the rituals of comfort. They prayed for the repose of the soul of her husband and ended on a note of plea that she should eat something in order not to injure her health.

Tinubu threw the audience into laughter when he ended the story by saying that the widow asked her peers:

What did you bring for me to eat when you were coming ? ”

After about two hours of chatting, I went to Chief Akande to remind him we had yet to get to what brought us to Tinubu and he asked me “What is that ?” I was shocked and he lost me forever that day.

I got up and announced to Tinubu that we had a reason for coming and reeled out our articulated points. Mr. Mobolurin adumbrated the points.

He cut in and flared up “I am not holding any meeting again. I cannot be spending my money for rebuilding Southwest and people will come here and insult me. All my mates have high rising buildings all over the place but this is the only house I have in Lagos because we are spending all the money for politics .”

We left Tinubu that day and it was clear that what we were trying to build had crashed. I also knew that the Tinubu machinery had triumphed and would be there for a while.

But I was also convinced it would not last forever as the foundation was not in sync with our ancient landmarks. ~ Yinka Odumakin

If I were Buhari, I would write books, too. Even if I would need to hire the services of learned men, it won't matter. Just attach Mohammadu Buhari as Author.

But for the meantime, close that book for now, or get someone to read and interpret for you. Thanks, sir.

Can assure everyone that if this a Tinubu gathering.. Buhari and all this non Yoruba governors will avoid it with muscle and blood..

Since 2019.. Buhari has cleverly avoided anything that involves Tinubu and gathering relating to Tinubu..

Tinubu today is at his political best.. as akande will be relegated by his press .. why yoruba press will do all to draw attention on him.
