I spent valuable time with Mr Peter Obi this morning.I wish those who see him as an ethnic candidate can get to know him better.I also wish those who try to sell him will tone down his ethnic identity.I hope the nation will see the candidates up close, we could see a revolution.

Decision of NBA to withdraw invitation to Gov el-Rufai to speak at its Convention is a disservice to an org that should champion fair hearing,free speech and tolerance. It deprives lawyers opportunity to interrogate a colleague in the eye of a storm,and has set a bad precedent.
