Reflection on Nigerian Politics of Opposition

The essence of the opposition in politics is NOT to cover the milestones and road signs on the highways built in a democracy. The opposition is, rather, expected to highlight and point out the clearer paths to greatness of a nation.


A good road for the journey in a democratic process is built by politicians who play by the rules and have true sense of patriotism without inordinate taste for power.

Politicians must not love power and hate to lose it. Those who truly love Nigeria will always have the power to govern because they will be called or beckoned to serve.

Opposition in politics is not about creating crises for the sake of relevance. Opposition is creating visions that remove illusions in the minds of people to make better choices.
