WHAT ARE YOU? AS MIMIKO RELOADS ONDO POLITICS! Politics is about political patronage. You either ended up being given an appointment or simply elected into office. Those that are neither elected or given appointments still ends up being patronized either by govt or by the party. And I know many that prefered to be patronized to being given appointments or being asked to go for elective positions. Dont ask me about what I meant. WHAT ARE YOU IN ONDO POLITICS? WHAT ARE YOU? Is actually Govr. Mimikos political coinage. It simply means a political evaluation and an assessment conducted on individuals in order to ascertain their electoral value and ability to mobilize. Its on record, that, virtually all those that were fortunate to be given appointments after the October 20th Guber poll of 2012, were made to pass through this political evaluation. In other words, appointments and portfolios were given, based on the ability of the then LP leaders to deliver their Units, Wards and LGA for the party, to the extent that, some leaders were subjected to security screenings. No, wonder then, that, many names that were initially nominated for Federal and State appointments got replaced, mostly due to their disloyalty, anti-party and general electoral worthlessness. IMPLICATIONS. The implications are many. WHAT ARE YOU? is about leaders that can politically and electorally deliver their units, wards and LGAs when it comes to elections. WHAT ARE YOU? Is about popularity and acceptability to an average voter. WHAT ARE YOU? Is about being electorally valuable to the party. Those that are very close to the Govr or failed to secure appointments must be familiar with the slogan WHAT ARE YOU? The era of godfatherism, undue favoritism, imposition or your being close to some VIPs is gradually going to an end in the state. When you talks about politics, you will meet all manners of politicians - LIGHTWEIGHT, FEATHERWEIGHT, HEAVYWEIGHT AND EVEN FACEBOOK PAGE POLITICIANS. It is high time, we started asking our leaders and those aspiring to become anything in 2015 : WHAT ARE YOU AS MIMIKO RELOADS ONDO POLITICS?!
