TRUTH remains TRUTH irrespective of the population of people mega-phoning it. It simply remains incorruptibly “TRUTH”.
This crusade isn’t about me, nor about the College that Jegede & I attended, neither does it have anything to do with his professional status in his legal calling but about the need to collectively and objectively protect our highly valued democratic culture and essence.
The difference between you and I is the preparedness to tell TRUTH to power or stand in the crowd to support EVIL against collective democratic good. I boldly chose the former. THE MAN REFUSED TO DIE IN ME!
We are all running a race before posterity and in the end, only the truthful shall be vindicated and honoured with the hero’s badge!
You may shy away from saying the TRUTH today for the convenience of political belonging and momentary jejune approval, it doesn’t correct the fact that, in wrongfully choosing a running mate from the wrong place and the wrong Camp, Jegede had willfully and obstinately lost his first position rating and tactlessly weakened his gubernatorial ticket.
My comments do not derive inspiration from hatred or jealousy for I wanted victory for him but from unfettered freedom to stand and be counted as a true soldier for DEMOCRACY and the TRUTH not only in PDP but in Ondo State.
“An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice EVERYWHERE” – Martin Luther- King Jnr. Today, it is the humble marginalized and perennially politically shortchanged Ilaje people in the Southern Senatorial District, tomorrow it might be my own IDOGUN or AKURE people.
No one becomes the Flag and deceives the whole party for three solid weeks, goes on BBC to deceive the whole World and returned to his vomit to pick the same man he denied picking ab-initio as running-mate from under his own nose in his own EYITAYO’s CAMP in deliberate abandonment of the resolutions of the PDP ELDERS’ COUNCIL and gets away with it unless he makes far-reaching political atonement for his willfully sinful misdemeanours to get back on winning ways!
One of my write-ups recently catalysed a PDP Highest Echelon leadership reaction, they met and TRUTH flowed like rivers of water. The unwritten communique came in a “red-alert”. EYITAYO CAN’T FLY AGAIN!
EYITAYO JEGEDE AMBUSHED THE PEOPLE AND THE PEOPLE WILL AMBUSH HIM!
The truth is eternal. I sincerely do not want to be praised today and jeered at tomorrow for joining the monotonous charade of building ”a tower of the babel of lies that will crumble like cookies tomorrow morning. Let me my abusers and traducers enjoy their monetary run, it started with a bang”, soon and very soon, it will end in a whimper when the truth triumphs over falsehood, light over darkness and good over evil.
Give me kudos for speaking up……fear those keeping mum to unleash the dragon of rebellion en-route the RUBICON!
ONLY TRUTH LASTS FOREVER!
I remain a soldier on the side of TRUTH.
