One thing is certain: we cannot learn anything new from a dope; and those politicians who believe that democracy is nothing but exploitation, are no better. That is why Abraham Lincoln warned, decades ago, that humanity should “beware of rashness; but with energy and sleepless vigilance, go forward and give us victory.”
*Prof Yakubu, INEC ChairTo
many of us, we can say categorically that there is no strong assurance of
achieving any political victory in our country unless Nigerians join hands
together in 2023 to choose someone who is highly qualified for the office in
which wisdom, intelligence, good character, and guts are the requirements.
The reason is simple. In times like this, nothing is more important to hardworking Nigerians than a government that can defend its defenders and protect its protectors! It is true that a leader may not be able to solve all the problems of the future but he must be able to solve the problems of his generation. Failure to do that is a failure in the journey of life.
