Let me tell you a story, one you might have heard before. A King told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he likes, then he would give him the area of land he has covered. Excited and enthusiastic, the horseman jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. He didn’t stop when he was hungry or tired, until he was exhausted and dying. He then asked himself “Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I only need a very small area to bury myself”. This story is similar with the journey of our life. We push very hard every day to make more money, to gain recognition. We neglect our health and time with our family. Ask yourself, are you working to live or you’re living to work? Do you spend more time with co-workers instead of family? Is your health suffering because you work long hours? Are you e...

At a public dialogue in Abuja organised by #NotTooYoungToRun movement on Thursday, Senate President Bukola Saraki formally announced his intention to run for the President in 2019 on the platform of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).By this announcement, he put paid to the speculations about his political ambition and perhaps made known the reason for his recent peripatetic “consultations” across the country. But it is unlikely he will win the PDP presidential ticket much less succeed Muhammadu Buhari in May 2019, and here are a few reasons why. 1) SARAKI MORE FEARED THAN LOVED Believe it or not, any man whose residence a siege is laid to, regardless of the motive, is considered a threat. And whatever we fear we are always wary of, if not seek a means to destroy. Though the siege happened to Saraki in the twilight of his membership in the APC, it’s an event that speaks volumes of how power-brokers across the spectrum of political partiesperceive him.  The PDP only condemned the Niger...
