There is a place and a time for everything. Our new rulers would be well advised to take care that they do not exceed the limits of normalcy. The President’s House, regardless of who is the president, represents the residence of the “president of the nation” as a whole and not of one political party. He symbolises the dignity of the nation and that dignity must be preserved. It would not be in the interest of the ruling party to exceed the limits set by certain well-tested norms. It would also be in its interest to allow the law and order agencies to carry out their duties un-hindered, not only by their leaders but also by their workers. If they disregard this simple advice they will find their tenure which already appears to be threatened, further reduced.
The country is threatened by inducting a pliant judiciary and this along with the jiyala culture which the new government appears bent on promoting will not serve the ruling party’s interests and is likely to hasten its exist. The next few months will show whether those in authority heed this advice.
