Once, Ptolemy Sotter the Greek General and Historian imposed upon himself the task of narrating the life and times of one the most historically remarkable figures, Alexander the Great.
He said it was his time. Speaking to the audience in Yoruba, one of the highlights of his speech, was his assertion that “Egbe ki ni yi wa, Emi lo kan,” which in English means, “give me this mandate, it is my turn.” Tinubu explained how without him Buhari would never have been President and then turned to speak about the Governor of Ogun State, Dapo Abiodun.“Even this one behind me, Dapo, he knows that if not for me, he would never have been able to become a Governor,” he said, speaking Yoruba.
When it was time for the other aspirants such as Godswill Akpabio, Ibikunle Amosun, Kayode Fayemi, Abubakar Badaru etc to speak to the delegates, they merely stepped down for the man who the cap firmly fits. Many other politicians would have found such a decision too weighty to risk, but Tinubu in his excessive confident manner, damned all consequences and made his decision. He knew where he was going, he knew how to get there.
Tinubu in his usual unflinching resolve at a rally would then say again in Yoruba that, “if they like they should make Naira scarce, they should make petrol scarce, whatever they do, I will still win!”
