Atiku is one man who sees himself as the capo of Nigerian politics and truly he has come a long way. Fourteen or fifteen years old when Nigeria and where he came from, the northern Cameroon was amalgamated . 

Everything about his live have the touch of the northern oligarch. He was educated along with the blue eyed northern aristocrats who had the notion that Nigeria belonged to them in the famous school  

Barewa college and Ahmodu Bello university or ABU in Zaria. He made his money both in the civil service and in private life and entered politics with the pride of being Mr smart after serving as the vice president for eight years and is ready to give anything to be president. 

He always seen the incubate  president Bola Ahmed Tinubu no more than his lackey and is furious with him that he would dare to be president before him. 

After Buhari’s eight years in office popular opinion is that power should shift to the south but time was running out on Atiku if he was ever going to be president who is already above eighty years old.

 He rejected the zoning formula for the south to produce the president and contested against President Bola Tinubu and lost. 

His rejection of the zoning formula has brought untold problems into the PDP party and its disintegration and has not been able to recover that opposition party. 

His enemies easily capitalized on his stance to create a wedge between the northern members and the southern members of the party. Instead of facing reality he chooses to blame the incumbent president for the woes of his party and has to move to another party with his allies. Even there they didn’t appear to be faring any better. He has his hands inside the bottle filled with nuts and is not ready to let go

Liverpool lost the opportunity to close the gap at the top of the premier league table late on Sunday night in their clash with Man.City who are refusing to believe Arsenal is unassailable at top of the table with a nine point lead.

And they may have to wait another day for an opportunity to close the gap in their bid to earn at least a top four finish.

They have managed to go ahead in a match they were doing all they can to hang on when midfielder Szoboszlai rifled home a direct free kick in the seventy fourth minute of the game but in a hero turn villain mode was sent off later on in the game when he clashed with Haaland at the tail end of the game.

But six minutes before normal time City pulled a goal back through Silva assisted by Haaland and Liverpool goalkeeper gifted City a penalty in the 93rd minute which was converted by Haaland.

It has taken City just seven minutes to turn the game around though Liverpool fans are still in awe of some of the decisions made by the referee.
