Today is an epoch-making day in the annals of Nigeria’s political history because aside from the fact that a new president has been elected, the emergence of this president-elect is a classic example of the spirit of perseverance or never say never if you like.

This president-elect had been contesting elections for at least the past twelve years but failure to achieve his desired result did not deter him, not even the fact that he had to wait for an additional four years in each instance to try again.

Anyway sha, while we await the aftermath of this new birth, the words of one oldies rings true and I sign out with it…

“You can get it if you really want, you can get it if you really want, you can get it if you really want but you must try, try and try, try and tr…..y, you’ll succeed at last!”
