STRAIGHT FROM MY HEART TO PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI AS HE CELEBRATES ONE YEAR IN OFFICE - LATEEF ISHOWO


Dear Mr. President,
If it were to be around twenty years ago, I wouldn’t have bothered writing this letter; as I am sure it would not get to you. Many Nigerian leaders hardly read local newspapers and the few that do merely flip through the headlines. But thanks to globalization which has turned the world to a “global village”. If through no other means, I at least, have confidence in Nigerians on social media; they will share it until it gets to you.
Hence, let me hastily congratulate Your Excellency on your first one year in office. Indeed, 365 days in office must have enabled you to separate thoughts from realities and politics form governance. Looking back, May 29 2015 is like yesterday. Like many Nigerians, my heart was full of happiness, hopes and aspirations for a better Nigeria as I watched and listened to your inaugural speech where you made the axiomatic statement of “I belong to everybody and I belong to nobody”. Not only that, Your Excellency equally stated that “a few people have privately voiced fears that on coming back to office I shall go after them”. You said “these fears are groundless” and promised that “there will be no paying off old scores” and that “the past is prologue” so that you may concentrate on governance and forge the nation ahead. Beautiful as these words were, may I inform Your Excellency that Nigerians have started expressing doubts on your sincerity in keeping the above promises.
