I
cannot but agree in totality with Sabella Abide on his article titled
Obasanjo was right. Nigeria is afflicted with so many ailments. I have
read many commentaries over the 18-page letter by former President
Olusegun Obasanjo to his estranged political godson, X-raying the GEJ’s
clueless administration. I must say that I am disappointed with the
sentiments being expressed by bread and butter Nigerians.
Sabella, does Nigeria have a future? Are
we sure we are ever going to be free from the whims and caprices of
greedy and selfish political elite? What is the way out? Nigeria cannot
be compared with any of the developing economies in the world. Nelson
Mandela was celebrated all over the world as a true leader. Can anyone
stand in comparison with the man who spent his early years in prison for
the sake of his people? Even the self -acclaimed activists in the Niger
Delta do not see the ineptitude of one of their own who by God’s
divine providence became the President . Instead of calling themselves
to a town hall meeting and baring their minds to GEJ, all they are
interested in is for him to continue in office. To do what? The only
reason they have is for them and their cronies to continue to enjoy
bread and butter at the expense of the millions of Nigerians who live
below poverty line. It is the shame of a country!
