ONLY ASIWAJU CANNOT CHANGE NIGERIA
By Abdurrazzaq Alaranse
You talk of young, vibrant and unifier. I did not see HONESTY AND DISCIPLINE among those qualities. A person can have all those qualities and still mess up the economy.
Nigeria is too sophisticated to be left in the hands of a blossoming youth. Vibrance is not enough otherwise he may be hasty in taking decisions that can set the country on fire. Of course we need a HEALTHY person too.
Above all these is the pedigree of Asiwaju. The health is not really a problem if Asiwaju could move round the thirty-six states and FCT within forty-five days of rigorous campaign without collapsing at campaign ground.
The work of a president is not breaking of firewood or digging soak away. No ! It is all about dexterity , intelligence and determination to serve the people.
Health wise, I believe Asiwaju’s condition will improve over time now that he has realized his long term ambition.
The crack team of great Nigerians, including youths that will help him do the transformation work is also very important.
ABOVE ALL, I regret to let you know that Nigeria will ONLY change for good if ALL OF US are ready to change our bad and UNPATRIOTIC attitudes. No one person can be building and succeed when the rest are pulling it down. Bankers capitalized on naira redesign policy to inflict pains on Nigerians. Is it Buhari that did that ? POS agents in Benin city were charging N500 on every N1000 cash withdrawn. Is it Buhari that ask them to do that ? Conditional cash transfer made some officials in the concerned ministry emergency millionaires. What is the fault of Buhari in that ? Government fixed street lights but some people removed them in the night. What is the fault of the Government ?
All of us have our blames including that teacher who collects salary but refuses to teach the student but rather give them egusi to peel.
We all need to change before Nigeria will change.
Europe did not just become a haven of sorts. It was the hardwork of great leaders and patriotism of the followers that build it.
Many thanks.
