Adamu was born on July 6 days where clannish and divisive politics have been elevated to a culture, any one who charts a course of national cohesion need not escape the searchlight of history.
Adamu even at the risk of being called a renegade by some of his Northern colleagues, harped on the need to have a seasoned nationalist as Obasanjo who will wield the diverse peoples together and save the nation's fragile democracy from early death.
Governor Adamu's credential as an advocate of peace and unity could easily be seen in the manner and speed with which the tension generated by the controversial issue of holding council polls before May 29, 2002 was doused.
