“Ejimofor, Don’t Be Too Poor That All You Can Boast Of Is Money” – Soludo

I have made a couple of past political mistakes in my life. 

From uninformed party loyalty that saw me support the unacceptable, to swimming against the tide of zoning in my home state and pitching myself against my people. 

Supporting Soludo is my own corporal work of mercy to atone for my undoing and seek political absolution. If I have gained nothing in this journey, what cannot be denied is the multiplier effect Soludo’s mentoring has added to my worldview.

He is a Leader I am proud of. He is deserving of my submission. He is the type Aristotle referred to as “Natural Betters”. He inspires hope in a generation of derelicting intellectuals. 

Like Zik and his adherents, Awolowo and his proponents, Sarduana and his loyalists. Today, we have Soludo and his Apostles! After yesterday’s outing, I have no doubt whatsoever that I have found a Leader, who is also a “Philosopher-King”.
