OLD RELATIONSHIPS GO NEUTRAL ATIMES

 The picture below shows 2 great men in Nigeria, former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Undeclared Nigerian President-Elect, Moshood Kashimawo Olawale Abiola smiling at each other at an occasion. It is interesting to note that Abiola and Obasanjo have known each other since 1951 at Baptist Boys High School Abeokuta, Ogun state.

Meaning that preceding the 1993 elections,  Abiola and Obasanjo have known each other for more than 40 years. Not only were they age mates but both showed very sterling leadership qualities and brilliance to qualify as editorial board members of the school’s Trumpeters magazine.

The same deputy editor, Olusegun Obasanjo turned out to become the 2 time president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria while MKO Abiola emerged to become an international businessman and politician. Despite being in same elitist class for years, I do feel that the agelong relationship never reached it full potentials.

This tells us that wisdom to handle relationships and take critical decisions is critical for self-survival. What is in the future of relationships is more than what has happened previously. Address matters scientifically and steady your relationships. Never under-estimate anyone. Do your best to stay right and follow peace with all men.
