ARE THE ROTATIONAL PRESIDENCY AND THE CREATION OF MORE STATES THE REAL PROBLEMS OF NIGERIA IN 2014? The members of the ongoing Nigerian National Conference in Abuja are typical first-class clowns, jokers, entertainers, jesters and carnival backers in my own personal judgement with their new proposals for the rotational presidency between the North and the South and the creation of more states in Nigeria.
Nigeria as a nation has been governed by both the Northerners and the Southerners as well as by Christians and Muslims in the last 54 years and Nigerians have never lived in heaven on earth to date under these various leaders. The successive governments in Nigeria changed the original four regions of the country at independence into 12 states in 1967, then 19 states in 1976 and later 36 states without anything to truly show for these many state creations to date in terms of both the human and the infrastructural developments across the 36 states of Nigeria.
The biggest problems that face Nigeria today in our lifetime are not the proposed rotational presidency or the creation of more states, but the corrupt, inept and mediocre leadership that continues to steal our commonwealth and to also mismanage our state resources. Another problem in Nigeria today is the lack of the rule of law in place that supports selective justice by protecting the looters of Nigeria from the full weight of the law and does not guarantee equal justice and equality before the same supreme law of the land in Nigeria to all Nigerians.
What is the position on the Confab on the 80% of Nigerians that live on $1 to $2 a day budget? What plan is put in place to address the double-digit youth unemployment rate and poverty wages that millions of Nigerian workers earn? Do they have any plan in plan to address and to solve our rapidly failing educational system, the collapsing national health care system, the outdated and the overcrowded national infrastructures and the lack of the basic social services for Nigerians. Any plan in place to address the national insecurity to life and properties of all Nigerians including the terrorism of the Boko Haram?#TheWrongPrioritiesForNigeria
