| Alhaji Prince, Abdulwahab Yunusa |
It is over 15 decades
since the assassination of Abraham Lincoln in the Presidential box of Ford's
Theatre in Washington DC, but the deep sincerity of his life, times and his
quotes still dwell within us.
As far as the knowledge
of law was concerned, scores of other men of his time outstripped him. To some
he lacked the grace, smoothness and polish, but the honesty and sincerity of
his utterances at Gettysburg Cooper union and on the steps of the Capitol in
Washington have not been surpassed in history and will forever remain a
constant kit of inspiration.
As some saw in Abraham
Lincoln, some have perceived in Alhaji Prince, Abdulwahab Yunusa He talks with
life and spirit, he gesticulates with his arms moving in impassioned gestures,
his voice rings with conviction and radiates enthusiasm, eagerness, aliveness
and vigor. These are qualities I have always considered essential in a good
leader.
People cluster around a
good leader like wild turkeys around a field of autumn wheat. His persuasive
power of ardor is never more vividly demonstrated to me that the power in his
words. Believe me, I have heard many persuasive words but when Prince Wahab
talks, you would perceive a kind of triumph of Sincerity over common sense in
those words. His submissions are succinctly delivered and energetically driven.
This reminds me of the popular quote by Dale Carnegie which reads thus "
If a Speaker believes a thing earnestly enough and says it earnestly enough, he
will get adherent to his cause" and I dare to add that he would be able
persuade men to believe in his cause and make his Voice heard in the 8th
Assembly as well as sponsor bills that are of urgent importance to our dear
Kogi East Senatorial district.
These are not mere
conjectures or some supposition but an excellent representation of proven
facts, Alhaji Wahab redefines social capital, he enjoys so much good will, a
man of refreshing candour laced with forthrightness, straightforwardness, plain
verbosity, plain dealing, bluffness and bluntness, a man of calculated silence,
an epitome of discipline, a man who is highly impregnable by the twin demons of
tribalism and nepotism no wonder they've found nothing negative about him.
These expressions of
mine, beat all colours of sycophancy or some servile flattery, they are but a
reflection of my thoughts on the personality of a quintessential gentleman.
