My cousin has been in Canada for six years.
Every month, money lands in my aunt's account.
School fees, house rent, his younger ones' upkeep.
Everybody calls him the family's blessing.
He called last Christmas.
Laughing and asking about everyone.
He sounded fine.
I asked: "How are you doing over there?"
He said: "I'm managing. Canada is good o."
He visited two years ago. We killed a goat.
The whole family came out.
He was smiling in every photo.
Nobody noticed he had lost weight.
I noticed. But I didn't say anything.
I thought maybe it was the cold.
Last month, his friend called my aunt.
Said my cousin had not been eating well.
That some months he sends everything and keeps nothing.
That he cries sometimes. Alone at night.
That he had been doing this for years.
My aunt was quiet for a long time.
Then she said:
"But he never said anything."
...
Well, he never said anything.
Because nobody ever asked beyond "how is Canada?"

Governor of Lagos till 2007.....
He wasn't desperate to to to the Senate like his peers....
He didn't pick any form to fight for Presidential the ticket for 16 years....
He held Colloquium for those 16 years to mark his birthday, and to create avenue to discuss alternative policies that he believed in as opposition leader....
Not desperate to become VP, seeing it would affect the opposition coalition....
He waited another 8 years....
The master strategist only picked his Presidential form once after 16 years of being a Governor....
Yes, one of its kind in his generation where other politicians are very desperate till date....
"I want to welcome you to the party that doesn’t know what is called status quo ante bellum.”
- Sen. Henry Seriake Dickson said as he welcomed Peter Obi and Kwankwaso to the NDC
