Eight years ago, most Nigerians would have thought that the birth of a new democracy in the nation was the beginning of paradise on earth. Unfortunately, they were wrong.
Ordinarily, eight years should be enough time to solve any societal problem no matter how intractable. And if the problem were at the heat of the nation, like electricity, a committed government should have been expected to tackle it with all seriousness with a view to fixing it under record time. Unfortunately, that is not the case with Nigeria because presently, we are experiencing one of the worst power shortages ever.
In 1999 the Obsanjo administration under the distinguished leadership of the PDP promised the nation uninterrupted power supply if voted into office. Are they now telling us that eight years isn’t enough for them to fulfill their promise?
Must we go on living like this, consuming 70% of our income on diesel and PHCN’s crazy bills.
Is this what democracy is all about?
It’s also sad knowing that a lot of average Nigerians depend on small-scale businesses to survive. But unfortunately these small-scale businesses are nowhere to be found due to PHCN incompetence. Owners however recalled that in the cause of running such businesses, you might end up being a debtor as you stand 0% chance of gaining your capital.
Other bigger companies spend close to N1.5million monthly on diesel, which means they’ll have to constantly over work their staff’s o they won’t run out of business.
Despite all these, the so-called leaders are not bothered, the PDP is not concerned, what they are concerned is that they maintain their constant leadership in the country.
It also appears that the Obsanjo administration does not truly possess the magic wand to turn around the PHCN, which has become something of a casino.
What Nigeria needs now is someone who has a good mind for the people, who knows the problem of the common man, and also has solution to those problems.
We’re tired of PDP they have failed Nigeria.
We need a change!!
