Thought For Today

[Chidi Anthony Opara, FIIM]

The basis of the video song mocking the supposed illness of a particular Presidential candidate by a group, purported to be "Pirate Confraternity" is fundamentally flawed.

"Shaking hands" and "shaking legs" may not necessarily be as a result of illness. Too much caffeine for example can cause that and would abet after moderation of intake.

By the way, a Presidential aspirant can be healthy and/or seem to be healthy but develop serious illness immediately after assumption of office.

Thank you all for your time.

Politics is not individualistic. One good individual cannot achieve anything with a bad team.

Politics is team work in which birds of same feathers fly together.

Politicians with integrity should choose politicians of integrity to work with.

In politics, actualization of visions/missions depend on who the President have(as co-visioner/missioner)in the legislature, executive council, etc.

I am eagerly waiting for the outcome of the recent Peter Obi/PDP faction midnight rapprochement in Port Harcourt.

I am eagerly waiting to hear what is in the rapprochement for Peter Obi as a Presidential election candidate and what he is to give in return in the give and take horse trading.

I am also eagerly waiting to know how the development will enhance the Obi followers much talked about paradigm shift from the old order to a new one.

Thanks.

The Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) is one of the many professional associations in Nigeria. 

The NBA annual conference is also one of the many professional annual conferences that take place in Nigeria.

Accepting or declining invitation to speak at an NBA annual conference is a matter of personal choice.

Accepting or declining does not add or subtract anything from those who accept or decline the invitation.

If one understands the APGA/Ojukwu phenomenon, one would know the mileage the only governor elected on that platform would have in the Southeast in the aspect of crowd pulling. 

If one adds the fact that in every other community in Nigeria, apart from the indigenous population, the Igbos are the second largest, one would understand why the person seen as Ojukwu's candidate  also pulls out the crowd in other parts of Nigeria.

Finally, if one adds the fact that the person involved is a very astute rhetorician/far right populist, who knows how to manipulate favourable factors to his advantage, one would understand the current hysteric fixations on him.

These hysteric fixations translating to election victory is however farfetched.
