If you are not holding any political appointment, people inside government will look down on you like you are nobody. They will avoid your calls and suddenly develop permanent “busy schedules.”
But the moment their time expires or oga throws them out, your office instantly becomes their second home.
They will start calling you shamelessly, begging you to help push their cooked stories in the newspapers.
If you check the background of most of these characters, you will realise they are children of nobody. No matter how much packaging and image laundering they attempt, the truth always leaks out. There is always a crack. You cannot hide rubbish forever.
Because of political appointments, they dumped their friends and abandoned those who stood by them. Small power entered their heads.
Sitting on stolen wealth they cannot display publicly, they became loud, arrogant, and foolish. They think they are somebody, when in reality, they are still nobody.
How many political office holders from Buhari’s era are still relevant today? Where are they now? Just like Buhari’s so-called kitchen cabinet, many of you will soon become history. Expired products. Yesterday’s men.
This is not a joke. It is important.
I am not telling anyone to change their ways, but let me say this categorically and without fear or favour: ohun tó tán l’ẹ́gún ọdún.
Ìrẹ ọọ.
