Businessman and publisher, Dele Momodu, has taken a swipe at the APC-led government of President Muhammadu Buhari.
In his article titled, ‘The Reasons Nigeria Must Wake Up Fast’, he insists that the country needs a new orientation.
“We need leaders who know their onions. We need modern leaders.
“They
are in control when the leader is weak and cannot perform. It is not
about loving the old man. They just want to govern from behind. They are
the faceless and unseen cabal.
“2019 cannot come and go as business as usual. It won’t be funny.
“Are
we so jinxed that we keep repeating the same mistakes? Why can’t we
stand up to our leaders and demand excellent performance? Why can’t we
see that the world is leaving us behind and adjust quickly?
“Truth must be told, as imperfect as our politicians look, they are the ones we must manage, and manage well.
“We
cannot afford to waste another four years worshiping the gods who
cannot liberate us from poverty, hunger, diseases, wars, backwardness,
and general retrogression.”
