Kaduna state Governor, Mallam Nasir El-Rufai claims he is already tired of being governor as job is extremely demanding and so time-consuming that he doesn’t have time for other personal activities.
According to PREMIUM TIMES , speaking at the Ake Arts and Book Festival which held in Abeokuta, Ogun State, el-Rufai said, ”In the last two years, I have been busy with opposition, new political party and elections. I used to read a book a week when I was less busy. But now, I just read files and documents and so on. My advice to anyone that thinks being governor is nice, don’t try it. You don’t get to read; you don’t have a life.”
”We are negotiating contracts that were awarded. Some of them were excessively inflated. We are recovering monies that had been paid for work not done. We are doing so because we are more interested in recovering the monies than humiliating and exposing the people that did it.”
As a state governor the challenge for me is what to do to create jobs in Kaduna State. Eighty-two per cent of the eight million people in Kaduna State are below the age of 35. My challenge is not whether population grows next year or the year after. It is to get jobs for this young people, otherwise no one will sleep in peace.”
”Frankly speaking, five months as governor, I am already tired. I honestly do not think that anyone who wants to do this job seriously can do it for more than four years and not burn out. When I look at some of my colleagues, some are putting on weight, they are looking nice, I ask them, ‘how do you do it?”
”It is the third largest state in Nigeria in terms of population and land areas, with huge challenges. We are very close to the North East. We have to be worried about suicide bombers everyday”.

I actually picked something out of what he said: "I honestly do not think that anyone who wants to do this job seriously can do it for more than four years and not burn out"

In 2007, Fashola had very dark hairs, very handsome guy I must confess. In 2011, grey hairs were very visible on his head. In 2015, all his hairs had turn grey, and in a bid to cover that up, he skin-barbs his hair now.... .. I don't know if anyone has noticed. I wonder what it would look like next with this 3-fold ministry he's heading....

So, I understand what El-rufai is coming from.

Get to work, you won't want to come again......

Then step down and let someone else lead.

When you don't know how to delegate effectively why won't you be tired? Leadership is about putting the right people in the right positions and getting out of there way not about micro-managing. If you do that you would burn out in no time.
When they say they should recruit the right people they wont, instead they would go and be putting their friends and there cousins in important post and they would be wondering why things don't work.

The 3rd largest in population and land area? who told you this

k

If you are tired, abeg resign now before its too late.
