The halls of politics and power in today’s Nigeria are littered with the remains of politicians who had desperately sought and acquired power not to use it for what it ought to be: power for great purposes, that’s, to serve the people. Rather, they are deviously determined to make politics and government run like a money-spinning business.
*Akpabio and Tinubu
This is the reason our present democracy has failed to deliver the much-expected dividends because, serving the people is of secondary importance to our politicians. The problem here is that, without vision beyond their own advancement, Nigerian politicians are paralysed once that selfish interest is achieved. Our pain is their gain. Nigeria is trapped in an inescapable situation.
