Politics in Nigeria is one phenomenon i dont really understand. Politics is like a gamble and you have to play it to the core. Know the rules, the DOs and DONTs, tactics and every element that constitutes politics. But Nigerian politicians are so myopic, the contex in which they view things tells how incompetent, self-centered and narrow-minded they are in Nigerian polity. Politics is seldom, not all about opportunity. You have to plan and strategise ways in which things would work in your favour. The fundamental element in politics is not the position you hold or how affluent you are. But how well you have positively influenced the lives of the people around you. Sovereignty belongs to nobody but the PEOPLE. If you have the craving to lead, then your priority should be the people. They should be influenced in all aspect of life. This gives that prospective politician the avenue to realise his political goal. But in Nigeria, it is not so. Politicians thought they can buy votes. (which apparently works in some case because of the circumstances surrounding the common man, instilled by those on high places). Were not goods to be purchased. Let our rights be exercised and this nation will be a better place. Gracias
