    He is better and more focus to the devt of his nation than it has ever happened in his country. Even better than Ghana and other shameful democratic rules in the world. So long as it's for the good of his country, let him be.

    This country is doomed forever. After remaining in power for five years and looting to sponsor their cronies abroad, they will then metamorphose into civilians by contesting the elections. Shame on Africa.
