Nigeria needs a strong-willed leader who won’t fold under pressure.

Those seriously damaging Nigeria are not only politicians but also Pastors, Imams, Traditional Rulers, and many other group and subgroup leaders.

Last Sunday in my area, a man held a ceremony to celebrate his career elevation. During the event, the Imam who presided over the ceremony mentioned that his recent car was a gift from President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and he began to shower praises on the President.

The question that came to my mind was this: Why would any sane religious leader praise a president under whose administration the economy has collapsed and insecurity remains increasingly high ?

The environment of that ceremony was rife with poverty, yet the Imam felt that since he had received a car gift from the President, his followers, many of whom are suffering and hungry, should support the same President again.

At that moment, I concluded that Nigeria cannot be fixed easily, because many of these group and subgroup leaders (pressure groups) are driven purely by personal gain.

We need a leader who can cut off their excesses. I am certain that the Imam must have written several letters requesting that car gift from the President.

If these are the kinds of letters the President receives requests for personal favors rather than appeals to fix roads, improve security, ensure stable electricity, or install community-based renewable energy systems, how will the country ever get better?

In that same community I mentioned, we get electricity maybe three times in six months. Yet, what mattered most to the Imam was receiving a luxury car from the President.
Meanwhile, his followers can barely afford to eat.

Unemployment has crippled many of them, and for those who run small businesses, the constant fluctuation of commodity prices has ruined their plans. Still, the Imam chose to prioritize a luxury car over the welfare of his people.

This is how many pressure group leaders behave across Nigeria. That is why the political and economic decay in the country keeps worsening by the day.

You are the one that is blasphemous, dragging God into what is not his business. It's your country and it's you that will fix it. Stop bringing God into your mess.☹️

Who Can Really Fix Nigeria — Politicians Or Technocrats?

Should Nigeria continue trusting career politicians, or is it time to let technocrats take over?

You wan test your luck ba. Better stop talking nonsense

TallNigerian:
I see no sense in this post. It's like asking who should fix broken vehicles? Mechanics or Automobile Engineers, when their roles are clearly defined. Auto mobile Engineers design and manufacture vehicles while auto mechanics are responsible for repairs.

Same fashion, technocrats are not trained for politicking. Career politicians are. A good and sincere politician will appoint a tested and trusted technocrat to carry out specific functions towards achieving a set goal.

why. Pols don't need technocrats to get to or stay in power

You may be amazed to know that Ngozi Okonjo may not do well as a President, but we all know she does excellently well as a technocrat.

Leave politics for politicians and leave innovation, creativity and excellence for technocrats.

Your concern should be "are the politicians we are electing into power honest and do they have good intentions for us?".
