Pat Utomi is an excellent administrator. However i dont think he has what it takes to manage the sharks in the Nigerian political system. Nigerian politics is a hydra-headed monster that can only br tamed or at the very least managed by the "boys". The time will come for great people like Pat Utomi but that time is not now.
