You simply cannot be thinking and saying this yet believe and pratice 'godfatherism in the same breathe. For the basic principle of the democratic culture which puts people in power is that the largest number of people possible appoint the very best person available at any point in time. It is like having 50 million judges on a 'Nigeria has Talent' show. What can surpass the meritocracy of such an outcome, nothing. But Nigeria has a deep rooted history of nepotism, bound tightly with the cords of bigotry and prejudice from the day the white man stepped onto I our shores and empowered the 'yes men' over the rest. Such choices of the morally unprincipled, the corrupt and malleable has funneled down our national DNA since independence through years of military dictatorships and manifested in today's political godfathers and their anointed godsons, the same amoral, corrupt and malleable non performers masquerading as governors, ministers and representatives. How anyone who is a beneficiary of a warped system can extricate himself from it without heavy backlash befuddles me. How anyone who is a seed of authoritarianism will suddenly bear the fruits of equity, parity, fidelity, honour and merit is the biggest joke of the century. Please, let us stop self deception. We know what is right. To get merit into power, democracy has to work INDEED. And for democracy to work we must ALL decide it should work. The discussions and negotiations towards that is the process of restructuring. Thus: without restructuring to agree common rules of the game, merit is just a mirage. 4 Likes |

He has said it all and that's why I'd continue to root for merit , regardless of party affliation. Afterall, Nigeria remains Nigeria while the peope suffer for choosing wrongly. Come 2023, if we must remain as one with a sense of belonging to move this country forward, Osinbajo/Zulum or Obi/Tambuwal would be a great choice from among both the Apc and the pdp. If this happens, I'd have to do a tally and have someone roll it several times before I pick which party to support with my eyes closed and anyone picked would be my candidate because they're a perfect match. A Muslim leader would have done 8 years while the Christian Candidate is expected to succeed him. But our politicians are so greedy in nature. They always love leaning on their opinion, as long as their choice would reflect their own will as against the will of the people and that's why we are where we are today since independence. I hope things change this time, if truly we must still remain one as a people. I use former Governor ibikunle amosun as an example in Ogun. Having studied the political terrain in the state, because of his personal interest, he went ahead and still picked a muslim candidate to succeed him, the idea which he had kicked against severally before becoming governor. We all saw how him and his candidate were eventually disgraced in the state. Our politicians know what's right but choosing rightly has always been the problem. The earlier we send them packing come 2023, the better for the citizenry. 1 Like |

TheRareGem1: Is Buhari merit to rule? Regards his education qualification. Is any northerner merit to head any department against the south in the first place base on education merit? How can someone that become professor with qouter mark, claim to be higher be educated with someone that become professor without any qouter mark but with his pure intelligent?

We construct Bio digester (Modern Sockaway) The system is called Bio Digester Toilet. It's an improved technology in the treatment and management of human waste and wastewater. This system effectively takes away all challenges that are associated with the conventional form of waste management. Once you have it in place, ✔you no longer call trucks to come evacuate human waste, ✔it doesn't smell ✔it doesn't attract flies or crokroaches, ✔just a small space is needed for it, ✔it's eco-friendly ✔and doesn't contaminate the groundwater Check my signature |
