style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The dust and the acrimony from the 2015 elections have sufficiently settled.\u00a0\u00a0Me myself I have somewhat recovered.\u00a0\u00a0All those one-sided media outfits during the saga will hopefully now report and publish all relevant sides of the divide.\u00a0\u00a0And as oga Jonathan watched his second term bid go up in smoke at the polls, there were plenty of obvious winners and losers.\u00a0\u00a0But, there were some less obvious losers too.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And so, in a haphazard order, here are some of the immediate and potential losers.\u00a0\u00a0Drum roll please&#8230;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>The Yorubas: At first, I thought the Yorubas have got Buhari by the short and the curlies; but now, I\u2019m not so sure.\u00a0\u00a0Today, the Yorubas appear jittery in victory, wondering what next.\u00a0Only now, they seem to be properly cogitating which way to go.\u00a0\u00a0In so many eyes, they are being seen again as too scheming, too wily, unsteady and undependable.\u00a0\u00a0Truth is, though the Yorubas have good reason to dislike Jonathan, they have however isolated themselves good and proper in the south with their modus operandi.\u00a0\u00a0They threw the baby and the nanny out with the bath water.\u00a0\u00a0I mean, in southern Nigeria, the big idea was to build on restructuring the country, or wasn\u2019t it?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Patience Jonathan:\u00a0\u00a0This lady campaigned harder than Jonathan and Buhari put together.\u00a0\u00a0The outcome of the presidential election must have been really devastating for her.\u00a0\u00a0It must have hurt bad.\u00a0\u00a0Since March 28, no one has heard pim from Mrs Jonathan.\u00a0\u00a0Looking back now, it was altogether a bad idea to have quit that Perm Sec job down in Bayelsa.\u00a0\u00a0But hindsight is a mean so and so.\u00a0\u00a0And to make matters worse, her friends are already inviting Mrs Buhari to dinner.\u00a0\u00a0Women sef!\u00a0\u00a0Chai!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"3\">\n<li>Corruption:\u00a0\u00a0Under Jonathan, corruption became as welcome as Brazilian hair weave.\u00a0\u00a0In six whole years, I cannot think of a single soul that was prosecuted directly for corruption under Jonathan.\u00a0\u00a0The few cases we heard about were hold-overs from the Obasanjo and the Yar\u2019Adua eras.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"4\">\n<li>PDP Northern Governors:\u00a0\u00a0Quite a few of these gentlemen collected Jonathan\u2019s money and worked for the opposition.\u00a0\u00a0They had hoped that they would continue to remain relevant after the presidential debacle.\u00a0\u00a0It hasn\u2019t turned out that way.\u00a0\u00a0They lost their States and their standing in the gubernatorial election.\u00a0\u00a0Then the APC promptly informed them not to even think of coming across looking for any goodies.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"5\">\n<li>The South-West Press corridor:\u00a0\u00a0These people energetically sold us the Buhari IV project in a haze of self-induced amnesia and a perfect re-enactment of the Stockholm Syndrome.\u00a0\u00a0But the ink hasn\u2019t even dried yet and the Buhari team is already in a Decree 4 mode.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"6\">\n<li>Shehu Garba:\u00a0\u00a0Got found out.\u00a0\u00a0Unfortunately for him, this happened before May 29<sup>th<\/sup>.\u00a0\u00a0The chap only went and took a blow-touch to his own reputation and credibility.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"7\">\n<li>Egalitarianism:\u00a0\u00a0Turns out regionalism is still very much alive in Nigeria.\u00a0\u00a0When the chips are down, everyone goes home.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"8\">\n<li>Young folks:\u00a0\u00a0IBB was right after all when he declared in 2011 that the younger generation in Nigeria was not serious enough and not ready to lead.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"9\">\n<li>Femi Fani-Kayode:\u00a0\u00a0Lost promises again.\u00a0\u00a0Was too strident and unsavoury.\u00a0\u00a0The attack dog thing is played out as Okupe and Omokri found out a while ago.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>Edwin Clark:\u00a0\u00a0Threats are just that; threats.\u00a0\u00a0Empty mouthing isn\u2019t it.\u00a0\u00a0You\u2019ve got to back up your garrulousness adequately.\u00a0\u00a0Boko Haram straight forward taught us that.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li>The PDP:\u00a0\u00a0The biggest Party in Africa watched its reputation lowered like a cheap coffin.\u00a0\u00a0They finally got out-played, out-rigged and out-manoeuvred in their own game.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"2\">\n<li>Obasanjo:\u00a0\u00a0The ex-President was neither here nor there; not in, not out.\u00a0\u00a0All the man succeeded in doing was damage his own Party and annoy everyone on every side in the process.\u00a0\u00a0And clearly, Buhari is not an OBJ fan.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"3\">\n<li>Rotimi Amaechi:\u00a0\u00a0In quick order, this chap lost his deposit, his money, his dignity, and damn near his entire people.\u00a0\u00a0The APC better compensate him the world.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"4\">\n<li>The Nigerian Army:\u00a0\u00a0For letting a noble body get used and abused by bloody civilians.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"5\">\n<li>The Christian Association of Nigeria:\u00a0\u00a0This organisation and some of their prosperity-flogging pastors \u2013 including one thoroughly perfidious all signing all dancing Catholic Priest in Enugu &#8211; covered themselves in a moth eaten shroud and all ended up in the can.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<ol style=\"text-align: justify;\" start=\"6\">\n<li>And finally; Ms Marilyn Ogar:\u00a0\u00a0Truly, I wonder what this lady will do now.\u00a0\u00a0The DSS spokeswoman spent enormous time and energy castigating the APC and made life quite difficult for a few of its frontline members.\u00a0\u00a0She practically called them terrorists.\u00a0\u00a0Now, the same people she spent so much vigour haranguing and abusing are going to be her boss.\u00a0\u00a0Very interesting, no?\u00a0\u00a0That alone is worth the price of the electoral outcome.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"text-align:
