Okebe makes history.

Okebe makes history.

By Philemon Badagawa.
On a calm evening to those who had been declared political failures, Okebe’s supporters were enjoying their day. ”…..today is my day…” was the song. Just like a farmer who had just sold his fortunes of coffee bags, drones of joy covered the faces of his overwhelming supporters as they all joined to celebrate Okebe’s victory.Okebe became a song of the night which everyone had to enjoy. Even those who failed to sing at least managed to dance according to the tune of the music.”President…. wafe….Okebe….”among other words made up the song.

It should be recalled that at the beginning no one ever thought of Okebe’s victory. This was after his failure to print out posters in the first four days.But as a man, Okebe could strongly believe that even without posters he could still make it to the guild office. These words came to pass when he was declared the winner with a total of 624 votes.It is alleged that most of his supporters had even lost hope.

This was as a result of Sophie’s political influence. She proved more of a threat as she used to spend a lot of money on her supports.It is on record that Okebe is the first of his kind to become a guild president from the law school and perhaps the only president who has won the race minus spending a lot of money.

It is said that apart from buying a few drinks, nothing more was given out to his supporters. Just as his slogan was “promise less and achieve much” Nathan never promised heaven on Earth like most of his counterparts. As ever, Okebe is still a man of the people and he will remain a man of the people for ever and ever.
