In life, some success stories deserve to be celebrated and recorded for posterity so that humanity can have deeper understanding of quotidian livin

g, its pitfalls and the eventual triumphs of a resilient spirit. While acknowledging the shallowness in the triumphalism with which some characters celebrate dubious success stories in different areas of human endeavours, we cannot deny the existence of real and moving stories that should reinforce our faith that it is not finished as long as we do not give up on our dreams.

What lesson, you ask. Well, it is simple. At the point when his ‘rich’’, one-room apartment friend decided to play god, threw his nose up in the air and, inadvertently, set Mr. Ibu on a suicidal journey of no return, God stepped in and providence availed for him. Surely, Bolton’s track couldn’t have come at a better time. His eventual triumph was a testimonial that man’s folly and egoistic shenanigan shouldn’t be a barrier to one’s dream of greater tomorrow.

Listen to him: “I thought that God will not forgive me if I didn’t come forward to share a bit of my testimony and my ‘only God’ moment. I stand here as a testimony of the awesomeness of the Almighty God, and the fact that God is greater than man. God will be God and man will continue to be man, because if it were for men, I will not be the Governor-elect of Ogun state. I have been in the private sector, but I have always had a passion for politics.

And that, in a nutshell, was what Abiodun summarized as “the most turbulent, most bumpy, most challenging, most difficult” tale of a political heroism in which the “incumbent did everything humanly possible to stop me. This is considering the fact that this incumbent has been a friend of mine for over 25 years.” Put bluntly, Ibikunle Amosun’s folly and buffoonery is wreathed in hollow triumphalism.
