  2. He is a few months to retirement sef. At least he will retire at the pinnacle of his career and enjoy enhanced pension and gratuity. Come to think of it, even though its a Yoruba man again (who is incidentally the most senior office in the Federal Civil Service) , no one can accuse the President of not considering Yoruba Christians.
