Amaechi the Lizard of Ubima would be crying tears now.

Despite all his gragra and story telling, he lost both the primaries and his ministerial position.

Simply supporting Osibanjo who seems better than him would have gone a long way to cement his place as one of the reasonable ones in the country.

Amaechi is far better than Osibanjo in leadership.
There's nothing to regret as he fought a good fight
