What qualifies her for such role? lemme guess, She is Late Yaradua's daughter! Nonsense!

There is nothing wrong in having a political family as long as the descendants have the requisite skills and are willing to gain the necessary political experience.

Moreso, some professionals believe leadership is hereditary.

@Pro-Anti, might I ask what I am supposed to take away from reading that? I mean of what relation is it to this particular topic?

@ Kobojunkie,

I believe my replies, the initial and modified, are not unrelated to the posts below.

Akosbaba:

Nigeria's democracy will soon be turned into constitutional monarchy

ud4u:

Personal Republic of Nigeria, elites recycling

blacksta:

Nigeria is the greatest city when it comes to recycling. A country where laws are in a place to ensure that wastage is eliminated not even 0.1 % waste is allowed. Eat your hearts out U.S or U.K our records speak for it self. Who could have thought such monumental records could be achieved by a country rated third world or developing country. We have all kinds of waste separation boxes where we store thrash only to use in the future.

Ps

Obj was eco friendly and was recycled. The next is IBB

I love this country.

You know what? I think politically speaking, Nigeria is at the level of medieval Europe as far as political development and general mentality is concerned. Then, the had rigid hierarchical class systems, same in Nigeria today. You had the Royals at the top, the nobles, the serfs etc. Even then, a serf could rise to be a noble but the chances were slim and this individual would face mockery from peers with "noble blood"

Ni[b]geria is an epitome of "REVOLVING DOOR" politics:[/b]

Musa Yar'adua- Minister of Lagos Affairs, first republic
Shehu Musa Yar'adua- Chief of Staff, Supreme headquarters, effectively vice president (his dad was minister)
Umaru Musa Yar'adua- Governor then President of Nigeria- (his blood brother was vice president)
Murtala Shehu Yar'adua- Minister of state, Defense (his father was vice president)

A governor today is a senator tomorrow and vice versa, the door keeps revolving!!!
Some people just have it in their blood, to rule is simply in the blood!!!
There are many examples of families all interconnected or siblings who are all in top positions in the country!

oops na wa o

Why not name the professionals that believe leadership is hereditary, maybe I have not read my book up to that point. "Leadership is not hereditary" is one of the arguments against monarchy.

It is one of the arguments against monarchy therefore there must be some counter-arguments in favour of monarchy.

Leadership is not hereditary Vs Leadership is Hereditary.

Nigeria cannot change until we are all destroyed by God. They must continue to recycle.Who told you you can get anything by merit in Nigeria. Nothing. If you can steal and get to the top in Nigeria, finish. Your generation must continue to be there. Look at OBJ, Yaradua family, Remi Fani Kayode who must, if sent to jail after eating FAAN will come out from jail to become President.

Just manage steal government money , you don belong. One of the most blessed Country in the world and the worst to live in.

Our leaders stink. We celebrate pen thieves in this Country. Work your way through Ministries and be given any appointment, that is the end. Th next thing is stealing.

Also learnt Abacha son will be contesting Governorship of his state after what happened. That is good again. To continue from where his late father stopped. Shame to this Country. Just learn how to steal in Nigeria you are made. How come good people like Patrick Utomi cannot gain access to lead this Country with sound educational qualification?  because of his humble and parental background, Sound man. Obama of Africa. If his parents stole Nigeria money and belong to the clique, he supposed to have been a president. Nigerians does not need intelligent people to rule them.

President Jonathan got their by destiny. OBJ asked Yaradua to pick him because he felt that Jonathan was just a humble man and he could use Yaradua. After Yaradua's death, Jonathan then got there by chance. Nobody expected that Yaradua will die there. They used his illness to steal Nigeria money. I still say his death should be probed and those that worked under late  President Yaradua in the office of the Presidency should be probed. [/b]

So what?

Soludo is Akunyili's inlaw
Mrs. Anenih was Tony Anenih's wife
Iyabo Obasanjo's father was President
Adamu Ciroma as been Minister since the early '70's. When old age took over, Mrs. Ciroma became Minister
David Mark's daughter is an FCT Commissioner
IBB's daughter is now a First Lady (lol!)
Segun Awolowo was an FCT Commissioner
Shagari's son has been a Minister twicel
Former Gov. Gwadabe's wife was made a Senator
Bla bla bla. If they were to all hold hands they could circle the whole of Nigeria with their grip (that's if they're not doing so already )

In fact, I think someone should start a new thread - Nigerian politicians and affiliates - fill in the blanks
