I wish he wins. And I pray that he serves his people well. You don’t know my sister from anywhere but you picked an orphan and raised her into a dignified woman. It is not yet time for your accolades. I am a writer and I will sing of you with my pen at the appropriate time. But the world should know this. I don’t know you from Adam. You don’t know me. Yet my plight got to you 7 years ago, as a jobless Masters graduate who couldn’t even raise the money to buy a PhD form. A prophet had earlier prophesied to my family that I can never acquire a university certificate. You sent the money to me to get a PhD form. In fact, you sent double. Today, you are one of the instruments that God used to break that evil prophesy. I got my PhD over two years ago. I am almost a senior lecturer working at the first and the best university in Nigeria. I have traveled all over the world teaching and researching. You took rags from my sister and gave her clothes. You took a curse from me and inspired me to blessings. Like I said, it is not yet time to write about you. This journey you have embarked on will end in greatness. Nigeria needs people like you who are passionate about inspiring others. The world needs you! *flees to my hideout*
