"The truth is, Nigerian politics is not for the lily-livered. It is only the Wikes who understand it, who can survive it. Give it to him: Wike has colossal mastery of Nigerian politics. Nigerian politics is a weird life comparable only to life in the wild. It has face recognition with Thomas Hobbes’ famous phrase of a ‘nasty, brutish and short’ life. It is home to a vast array of wildlife. Monkeys, tigers, leopards, lions, and reptiles of different hues inhabit the wild. So do they politics. These animals are consumed by a daily struggle to assert the jungle as their individual fiefdom. Indeed, the less said about politics’ sores, the better. Apart from its dense vegetation of plants, vines, and shrubs, the wild is a jungle." — FESTUS ADEDAYO thecable.ng/nyesom-wike-an…
