NUHU RIBADU AS ACN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, LAUGHABLE?

NUHU RIBADU AS ACN PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE, LAUGHABLE? Icheoku says the greatest hoax of the century in Nigeria is that the retired assistant police commissioner and the man who mistook sympathy for his persecution as love for him is now the presidential candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria? Icheoku says it is ok to dream and ACN and Ribadu can dream on that the skeletal mallam's candidacy will be acceptable to Nigerians. Like Richard Akinjide, Icheoku agrees that Nuhu Ribadu's candidacy is a huge joke and rather too ambitious. At least the mallam would have started by first testing his acceptability in his home state of Adamawa as a member of House of Representative or even a local government chairman; but no, his vaulted ego catapulted him into seeking the office of presidency of Nigeria? In Akinjide's own words, "Mallam Ribadu should have gone to the House of Representatives or the Senate. He is not a material for a Vice-President. I won’t even make him a governor.” Icheoku completely agrees with Akinjide's intelligent assessment and adds that Nuhu Ribadu will not even bring anything new to the fortunes of ACN as he is not capable of even delivering his own state of Adamawa to the ACN; talkless of those much needed Northern votes. Icheoku says Ribadu is just another kite thinking himself an eagle?
