I finally got around to reading Gov.
Fashola’s “take-away” on the Ekiti polls. After going through it, I
shook my head in awe. The Governor’s intelligence is legendary, but on this
take-away, I thought he was simply disingenuous.
For instance, since when did it become a given that being
cerebral or a performing technocrat guarantees a win in an election? Just look
at Obama in his first and second term presidential runs and probe the possible
reasons why Senator McCain lost to him in the first and Gov. Romney the second,
and you may be tempted to stylishly abuse the Americans as Fashola appeared to
have done with the people of Ekiti.
