While weighing up the possible fall-outs of Yar A'dua's election being voided, Sonala Olumhense wraps up his column in today's Lagos Guardian with these words:
"Pat Utomi: In 2007, he was the outsider who could have engineered a fundamental difference. He found, however, that Nigerian politics had not left the realm of money and rigging. Since then, however, a young man called Barrack Obama has emerged. His terrain might be the United States, but globalization has made him an international and Nigerian subject. If anyone is to benefit locally from Obama's emergence and message, it is Utomi."
Will his 'insurgency' have any chance of survival this time around?
Who else do you think fits the bill? - comments welcome.
