As Saraki Goes Into Political Purgatory by arinze198(m): 11:48pm On Jun 08, 2019 |
First of all, all praise to Almighty God, who gives power to whom he wills. Political victory came to Saraki in the past so easily that he forgot who he was. He became haughty and prideful. To the proud, the arrogant and the haughty, no one except God is powerful by himself or herself. Power is given, bestowed or granted and it must be kept in trust with reverence or it will be retrieved. Saraki got invested in himself so much as to take his people for granted and hold them in disdain. When I started attacking Saraki on this wall and in my column, many may not know I once sat with this man, at the same table at a wedding reception, in which I was “chairperson”. We exchanged banter and he was quite personable, likeable and young. There is nothing wrong with ambition; there is everything wrong with vaulting ambition. Vaulting ambition blunders the ambitious into thinking everything is fair game, it reduces their humanity and exposes an ugly side that is very alienating. Politically, Saraki has the best resume to be anything in this country. He was governor for 8 unbroken years. He was Chairman of Governor’s forum which meant he knew 35 most powerful men in various states at the time and championed their interests. He was in the Senate for 8 years, that means he knew at least three most powerful political players from each state of the federation. From birth, Saraki was never in lack. How could a man so blessed, be so greedy and petulant? How could a man so privileged and young let us down? Like Dimeji Bankole, he had it all and squandered it all. That was my major angst. Saraki would sit on his chair in his vast living room and old men would crouch on the floor with him nodding at them with mindless inattention. He divvied up Kwara State resources with such reckless wonder. He thought he was Kwara. Full story: http://pmexpressng.com/saraki-goes-political-purgatory/ 22 Likes 4 Shares

NigeriaIsDoomed: How is he envying successful individuals in the case of Saraki? So Nigerians are no longer allowed to dislike a treacherous politician who, as the article highlights, was given so much but could give nothing back to the people? You lot will attack Tinubu all day yet look at the development he has brought to Lagos? Whereas Kwara has regressed pitifully under Saraki. At national level, in the Senate, all he did was to use his position to frustrate the executive and thus Nigeria by extension. He is finished and good riddance to bad rubbish. A totally worthless politician. 89 Likes 15 Shares |

Awol1: Back to what? When has Saraki ever thrived in opposition like Tinubu? When has he built and sustained political structures like Tinubu, Buhari et al? When has he stayed true to the cause like Akande,Tinubu, Oshiomhole, Buhari et al? Instead all he engages in is political prostitution that sees him jumping ship, for self-preservation, when the going gets tough. PDP to APC then back to PDP. He can only be "back" if he joins APGA next and Igbos will make him Governor of Anambra. Otherwise Saraki is dead in State and national politics because he has never built bridges as a politician and is only famous for backstabbing others to include even his own father. A totally dishonourable cad. No one will remember him out of office let alone bother to try help him regain political relevance. Saraki is gone for good and will only be relevant again if PDP reclaim the centre. 75 Likes 14 Shares |

Saraki has tried. I don't even know what he wants anymore. The only thing left is presidency. But if the people hate him so much as OP has OPined, then he should go into full time business and enjoy his dough But we all know power is insatiable so I know he'll still look for something political 7 Likes |
