What does late Papa Obafemi Awolowo have in common today with members of the Jamaatu Ahlil Sunna Lidawati wal Jihad, otherwise known as Boko Haram, Northern Governors Forum, NGF, members of the South South Governors, General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida, President Goodluck Jonathan, Pastor Tunde Bakare – the list could go on?

It was a fitting closure be fore the 10th remembrance anniversary of 9/11. The killing, on Wednesday, May 1, 2011, of Osama Bin Laden, just four months before the month of September, marked what President Barrack Obama of the United States described as “a testament to the greatness of our country and the determination of the American people”.

Former national chairman, Justice Party (JP), and NADECO chieftain, Chief Ralph Obioha in this interview says President Goodluck should stick with the promise he made in Kaduna during his 2011 campaign drive and not run come 2015. He says the number one citizen should focus on tackling the immediate problems of power supply, joblessness and security instead of pursuing the issue of another term.

The next general election is three years away but many are begining to draw inference on the line of argument of Mr President that he is still serving his first term. One Cyracus Njoku, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Abuja Municipal Area Council, had approached an Abuja High Court to stop Jonathan from contesting in 2015, alleging that he is running his second term in office.

Whether President Goodluck Jonathan will run or not looks like an open-ended question. Who becomes the next occupant of Aso Rock Presidential Villa, Abuja in 2015 is generating weird calculations among political power mongers when the incumbent has stayed barely one year out of four.
