President Obasanjo must be reminded that people who don’t learn from history are bound to repeat the mistakes of history. They told Abacha then that without him continuing in office, Nigeria was doomed.

When you combine greed, self preservation on the part of the political elite and bad belle plus poverty and ignorance on the part of the masses you have a winning formula for how to elect dubious ill-qualified persons into high office.
