Until we groom good people for elective office, people who are
selfless, driven by a sense of mission, folks who understand the importance of
urgency for change, belief in community, do not wear their opinion on their
sleeve, avoid flagging religious views in favour of egalitarianism and to stop
putting their snout in the trough of the gravy train and free-booting.

Even if a Martian comes from Mars on a white
horse with Marian ideas to transform Nigeria , we would never go above
being the self-proclaimed Giant of Africa. (Simon Abah, The Guardian, 30 May
2017, Between presidential and parliamentary system of government).
