I AM SCARED HONESTLY.

By Political Animal.

For how long shall we tolerate leadership incompetence and yet insistence on power by the political class that is costing Nigeria a lot.

After one election , without governance or fulfilling the promises made ,they are already jostling , realigning,and positioning for another four year term .Crossing from one party to another ,fooling themselves.

Governing without a blueprint or manifesto.
How much more can we continue to ignore the obvious .It may be very difficult to survive under such political climate.
I am truly scared ,honestly. This matter requires urgent attention by honest Nigerians who still mean well.

Having watched so many social commentators ,or political analysts on national televisions over the years ,and admiring their analytical minds,and wishing that one day they will find themselves in power.

I get so scared and disappointed,when these same individuals come to power and begin to sing a different song.Songs worse than the ones sang by those they were criticizing .They become more enemies and ministers of retrogression than their predecessors.

For us to survive as a nation, social critics must remain consistent with their analytical minds,inside and outside power or corridors of power.

That is the way to go.They must remain consistent with their “messsage” on nation building and help impliment policies especially those from our ivory towers.

They should be consistent with their brand and values.This will make the nation move towards economic development and political development.

It is a sad commentary from the ivory tower for professors who are appointed as electoral officers , to be handcuffed for corruption cases ,because of aiding and abetting electoral mal-practice .

Another looming danger is our inability to say the truth when somebody from our ethnic group steals while in power.

We tend to show unnecessary solidarity,
as if we were sharing the proceeds with the fellow,whether man or woman,just because we see him or her as our own.

That is the reason our leaders will never take voters seriously.How can you be re-electing robbers,thieves and ex-convicts .

Our bias towards our ethnic groups and prejudice against other groups will never move this nation forward or move our economy forward.

Only God shall protect us from the brand of misgovernance of these present crop of leaders.

I am scared honestly.
