There’s hardly any Nigerian who will disagree with the idea of acting in the national interest. Indeed, one would have to be an unrepentant renegade to say that he or she won’t act in the national interest. Yet, truth be told, very few people actually act in the national interest in Nigeria. Why?
Well, first, there are those who have their own vested interests that run contrary to the national interest. Second, even though the concept of the national interest should be an objective reality, it often founders on the bedrock of subjectivism.
