TWO significant events hit the world from America recently. One is positive, the other negative.

Both are unprecedented: Trump is the first former US president to be convicted of a felony, and Biden Jnr is the first son of a sitting president to be convicted of a crime.
We had that experience in Nigeria in 2015 and 2023, didn’t we? In 2015, every right-thinking person knew that General Muhammadu Buhari was mentally and physically unfit to be president. Yet, Bola Tinubu self-interestedly foisted Buhari on this country, saying he was Nigeria’s General Eisenhower and General de Gaule. But now, as president, Tinubu says his administration inherited “a totally ruined economy” from Buhari, whose presidency was also dogged by his prolonged undisclosed illness.
