Realpolitik, Game of The Defector
By Hakeem Babalola
A Nigerian political defector is probably the most hard-nosed even "down to earth" fellow in the history of the word itself. He is not afraid to express awareness of things as they really are. He often uses a matter of fact approach to the issue at hand. He is practical but the commonsense part of his game is doubtful and dubious. For him, politics; even life is a game - of winning. He is ambitious but lack vision. Unfortunately, he does not know the difference between a will to succeed and the ability to deal resourcefully with unusual problems. Hence he chunks them together most times. And this is why his game is dangerous and unhealthy to his immediate surrounding - YOU.
