[i-go-better]

Please Dr Abati allow the still mesmerised, dazed and hungry Nigerian citizens a little more time for some semblance of recovery from Obj's 8yrs of mayhem before you start this insidious attempt at rehabilitating his "draculaic" nightmarish image that still hunts them. Those you claim are nostalgic of Obj's presidency shouldn't have affected your hard earned journalistic integrity because they leave obvious trail of dubious antecedence despite hiding behind pseudonym of several Damilolas.

And, curiously you seem to have failed to undersatnd the inextricable link between Obj and any Yaradua's inadquacy! Let me explain;

1. if Yaradua performs averagely well, then the failure of Obj would become DOUBLELY obvious even to his diehard supporters;

2. if Yaradua performs badly, then the failure of Obj would become QUADRUPLELY obvious even to his diehard supporters for 8yrs of waste and corruption and installing an unwilling president whose consequent failure was foretold. I always cringe at the realisation that I used to be one of his diehard supporters until 2003 elections!

Dr Abati, you are much better than this, however, my admiration for you is not affected by this mis-step. Happy New Year.
