Clement Atlee and Muhammadu Buhari: Towards 2019

I hope President Buhari has been reading Ben Murray Bruce and Bishop Matthew Kukah

And I do hope he would do something drastic about Tomato and Cashew Production as two ways of creating millions of Jobs. The American dream begins and ends with a job. Job creation is the U.S.”s President number one Job..With Job creation you can kil so many Birds with the same stone at the same time.

I almost predicted accurately the results of the 2015 elections but that was not my intention. I was only looking at PATTERNS and TRENDS. In writing about Winston Spencer Churchill, British Prime Minister and Goodluck Jonathan I stated they are both black hat wearing leaders, both born November, and both used exactly there same words on the disintegration of the British Emopire and Nigeria respectively.

Churchill lost the elections that followed in 1945 and Jonathan ,2015 but the story does not end there. Churchill CAME BACK in 1951. Would the PDP come back in 2019?

Like Clement Atlee, Buhari is an ex soldier, both are conservative turned progressives, both are associated with ushering in a welfare state but why did clement Atlee loose the election of 1951.Historians say he narrowly lost the election. Why was Churchill defeated in 1945? Homework for PDP and APC.

FFK and OSHIOMOLE: Presidential contest.
I would like to see a presidential contest between Adams Oshiomole and Femi Fani Kayode(With the new name Olu-Kayode).Femi Fani Kayode attended Pembroke College, Cambridge and Adams Oshiomole, Ruskin College Oxford. 14 British Prime ministers studied at Cambridge and 24 British Prime ministers studied at Oxford.

Like Churchill Femi Fani Kayode attended Harrow on the Hill which has produced 7 British Prime ministers. Churchill and Fani Kayode are both Aristocrats, both Historians, both crossed carpets as politicians, both are known as newspaper writers, both occupied the same portfolio in government ,Churchill was Secretary of the Air and Fani Kayode, Minister of Aviation

Whereas Oshiomole like British Prime minister Tony Blair was born in 1953, both are Catholics,like Blair Oshiomole”s late wife”s name Starts with C”, Cherie Blairand Clara Oshiomole .Blair was at Oxford University, Oshiomole was not at the University but studied in the city of Oxford.Tony Blair was leader of the new Labour Party and Oshiomole was President Nigerian Labour congress.

Maybe Bola Tinubu is right about parry supremacy. If I am to go with Professor Bolaji Akinyemi, Party supremacy is more of a thing of British Politics but the joke is on Bola Tinubu because he is more like an American President.

Like John Tyler, U.S Vice President to become President on the death of General William Harrison,Bola Tinubu was born March 29. Tyler in 1790 and Bola Tinubu in 1952. Interestingly Bola Tinubu was Vice Presidential aspirant and like willam Harrison then, Buhari ,is Nigerias oldest elected President. Tyler and Tinubu were both Senators and Both Governors.

Some other People I would like to see as Presidential candidates include Charles Soludo(Nssuka), Ben Murray Bruce(University of Southern California), Dr.Kingley Moghalu( Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy) , Oby Ekwesilli( Harvard) Olisa Agbakoba( London School of Economics) Abba Kyari( Cambridge) DR Adekeye Adebajo(Rhodes Scholar Oxford)
