I've been closed to @YeleSowore since my undergraduate days. I've stood by him professionally, politically and personally. Sowore is not infallible. But the hatred shown towards him online is largely misguided and irrational. How can you love Atiku and Buhari and hate Sowore?
What are the allegations against him? The main complaint is that he is hostile to some political figures in the APC and the PDP. The most annoying are those who support Atiku, Saraki and Co. but blame Sowore for Jonathan's defeat. Atiku and Saraki funded Buhari's 2015 election.
It was Atiku, Amaechi, Saraki and Kwankwaso who left the PDP and formed what they called the new-PDP in alliance with Buhari and the APC. They are the ones who actually brought Buhari to power. But because you were never interested in a better Nigeria, you choose to blame Sowore.
It is sickening. It is insane. Every single person that supports Atiku and Saraki but blames Sowore for Jonathan's defeat should have his or head examined.

Yesterday, APC supporters accused Sowore of working for PDP.

Today, PDP supporters are accusing him of working for APC.
What happened to shame?

Where is your sense of decency?

Jonathan failed this country.

No sincere or patriotic citizen will feel bad for opposing Jonathan. Buhari has also failed.

What matters is our consistency in holding every corrupt and failed government accountable.
This arrogant & senseless view that one must either belong to the APC or the PDP is from the pit of hell. Those propagating it are mad. Nigeria does not belong to these dubious parties. Not all of us will identify with your corrupt political demigods. Some of us are pro-Nigeria.
