BALEWA never struggled to be Prime Minister.
AHMADU BELLO was qualified but gave it to BALEWA.....
SHAGARI never wanted to be President(preparing for senate)......but he ruled!
ABIOLA wanted it since 1983......he never got there even in 1993....We loved him but he did not get it.....
OBJ never lobbied for or desperate to be President in 1978 and 1999(took over from Muritala in 1978 and taken from Abacha's prison in 1999). Falae wanted to since 1992 but he never got it.....OBJ did!
BUT When Obj wanted it again in 2007, he did everything to get the Constitution amended to enable him get it, but guess what? He never got it with all his powers.
ODILI struggled and spent billions to get it....he never got it.....Yar'adua was not even physically strong enough yet he got it without spending his personal cash. ODILI got nothing!
JONATHAN has neither the cash nor the charisma to be President but he got it. He defeated desperate IBB and ATIKU in the primaries and BUHARI in the general!
BUHARI resigned to fate. He declared that he will not contest again. That is when GOD handpicked him and made him the President after HE had earlier watched him exhausting his personal energy and killing his desperation!
The time when JONATHAN had no strength, he defeated mighty BUHARI....But when he had all the strength and money...he lost to a BUHARI who had given up!
Possessor of the kingdom, You give the kingdom to whom You will and You take the kingdom from whom You will and You honour whom You will and You humiliate whom You will. In Your Hand is the good. Verily, You are Able to do all things."
THAT is what the treacherous, desperate politician fail to know.
