. Says selfish interest responsible for nation’s problem

For meaningful progress to occur in Nigeria, there should be a shift in the dominance of elite in the affairs of the country.

This was the assertion of Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi in Minna, the Niger State capital, yesterday. Amaechi, who is also the Chairman of the Governors forum was speaking at the graduation ceremony of the Abdulsalami Abubakar Institute for Peace and Sustainable Development (AAIPSDS) in Minna.

Amaechi accused the elite of being responsible for the imbalances in the system for their selfish interest saying they are not contented with what they get and thereby create problems in governance for the nation.

“Their attitude has created a lot of conflicts and crisis due to the series of demands they make on the nation, leading to imbalances in the system”, he said.

“A shift of dominance of the elite in governance will correct the imbalance because the imbalance has created problems and crisis for this nation.”

He also recalled that the creation of states in the nation before was not as a result of the need to spread governance to the grass root areas of the country, but to further the elite’s individual interests.
