Wike was never going to be the flag bearer of any of the two major parties.
Of course, he almost got it but that’s where it ended – almost.
Of course, it is true that our system is no where close to perfection.
It’s not even close to being average but a person of such character can never be allowed to be on the ballot of a major party as president.
Being a governor itself was a grief error by Mr Patience Jonathan and his husband, Goodluck.
That’s why I wasn’t carried away by the frenzy yesterday afternoon.
PDP knew that presenting Wike will give APC victory that yesterday even before they conduct their own primary.
I am telling you the truth.
Now that that party has finally shown that they are not as stoopid as many Nigerians thought yesterday, their rival must also get serious otherwise, the Wazirin Adamawa succeeds PMB.
And I know PMB.
It is not his problem.
He won’t do any thing outside the normal to checkmate Atiku.
He won’t.
Even his own election as a sitting president was postponed in the night of the election without his knowledge and he didn’t sack the INEC chairman.
He is not Obj.
He is not GEJ.
He is PMB.
So Atiku stands a big chance if APC fails to wear their thinking cap.
Anybody in APC would have been able to defeat Wike but not anybody can defeat Atiku.
