Weighed down by a lack of direction and adherence to
constitutionality that is a high point
of fidelity to democratic norms, the President Muhammadu Buhari government
keeps on spawning despair in the land, with massive economic collapse leading
to rampant suicide.
*Osinabjo |
Amid this, Buhari’s deputy Professor Yemi
Osinbajo appears to represent an illustrious exemplar of sanity in this
government. Although decades of serial disappointments by political leaders have
made the citizens to cease trusting them, there has been the hope that Osinbajo
could be a different kind of political leader who is only actuated by a desire
to serve the people and improve their lot.
But at first, Osinbajo proved not to be
different from other politicians. The citizens wondered why some illegalities
like the government disobeying court rulings and sacking university vice
chancellors before the end of their tenures could take place while he is the
vice president. He has been silenced by the perks of public office, so the
citizens thought.
