MY TEN KOBO; PATIENCE AS A VIRTUE

In the Jonathan household, patience is not a virtue, it is a virus.
To be fair, the Jonathans never pretended to be virtuous, nor have they ever claimed that corruption begins with you.
In that aspect, they led by example.
Even in something as pedestrian as good old stealing, they ensured that maximum results were achieved.
It is a relief to have a former presidential spouse who kept it real, stole as much as it is possible, and have the audacity to stand by their loot.
No pretence, no false claim of a pious life, no attempt to appear frugal when in fact you are stinking rich.
The Jonathans are a true Nigerian legend, the ones Yorubas will call bujebudanu, everything and everybody, has a price.
It is ironic that Nigerians are aghast that a retired permanent Secretary has over a billion Naira, when Civil Servants own most of the choice properties in Abuja, Lagos and Port Harcourt.
At last, the South has a first family who now rivals the Abachas , the all time champion for personally saving our commonwealth for the rainy day, as an equal.
My Ten Kobo.
