A nation like Nigeria, giving her heterogenous nature, political and economic situations needed a well prepared visionary leader with a genuine mission for national redemption. Obviously, the challenges, ranging from insecurities, corruption and the erosion of judicial values can only be managed by a leader with an honest POLITICAL WILL and not by an EMILOKAN. By EMILOKAN, it shows that, all PBAT wanted was/is his TURN, whether he has the capacity and zeal to deliver and redeem the nation multi facet and multi sectoral problems isn’t an issues. It then means he PBAT lacks a clear vision without a well defined goal or direction, reason his cabinet seems confused and directionless, leading to insufficiency and disengagement as evidence in HIS kangaroo cabinet reshuffle and renaming of some ministries, an activities that should have been a First line consideration if there is blueprint to guide his administration upon his assumption to the office.
Apparently, Asiwaju is poor in decision making; Preparedness typically involves gathering information and understanding the context , haven skip this steps he makes impulsive or uninformed decisions that have jeopardized projects or organizational health of the entire system and the country , just like his pronouncement of subsidy removal, without any level of preparation to cushion the attending biting effects.
Consequently, since his only qualification and Agenda for the coveted seat was/is EMILOKAN , there is resource misallocation , without a thorough understanding of needs and challenges in all spheres of leadership requirements. PBAT Government misallocate resources without recourse to priority considerations, for example, the Lagos Calabar coastal road work contracted to allies just for political patronage wasn’t a preferred necessity, rather, that fund should have gone into rail line construction, rail transport bulks and it can stand the test of time compared to roads that ll take decades, yet wont be see the light of the day. Also, most disturbing is PBAT unilateral decision of handing over Nigeria economy to IMF and World Bank dictation. these have hindered national progress and increase our the level of Hardship to the point of being poverty capital of the world. A country that allow the interest of CABALS as well as that of IMF/WB to supercede that of the Masses will never make positive progress.
Sadly and most unfortunate, the PBAT Government haven succeeded in SQUEEZING the Judiciary and POCKETED same, at whatever point of UNJUST or OPPRESIVE behaviour or actions from them, be it, ELECTORAL FRAUD (having squeezed INEC as well), LAND GRABBING, UNPOPULAR TAX POLICIES, NEPOTISM and All other manners of Anti Peoples STANCE, they will tell You ‘GO TO COURT’ knowing fully well that the court is in their Pocket. A government that Arraigned and have over 93 children (minors) in police cell over #Endbadgovernance protest can best be described as a CALLOUS and WICKED one. Conclusively, inadequate Preparedness as seen PBAT presidency have created ripple effect of negative outcomes that have adversely impacted not just the President effectiveness but also the Entire cabinet and Systems, ultimately leading to TOTAL FAILURE.
GOD SAVE NIGERIA
The worst and greatest unfortunate thing to have happened to Nigeria under the PBAT led administration is the BUYING AND SELLING of court JUDGEMENTS by the JUDGES . Only the Highest bidder now win cases at TRIBUNALS, MAGISTRATE, HIGH, APPEAL and SUPREME Courts…And we all know that only those in Government have the kind of money needed to buy such Judgements.
Court injunctions are now like panadol in the chemist , its arbitrarily being abused by those close to the corridor of Power, they hide under injunctions to cover their mess and cause confusions. The Judiciary is no longer the HOPE of the Common Man but that of the government in power.
The way Judges are going by doing everything Illegally Possible to justify the bidding of those that build houses for them may one day TRUNCATE this democracy. The Conflicting Judgements and counter injunctions from the Judiciary seems a red flag that the Judiciary is going contrary to the constitutional provisions, lying under oath or over a deposed affidavit is a, criminal offence under the law of the land, but by the Rivers judgement as maintained by that High court Judge stopping the Rivers allocation over a matter of defection that is very clear under the law of the land shows that the judge who delivered that judgement is upholding perjury.
All these unfortunate events and circumstances REAR their ugly HEADS just because, there is absolutely no PREPAREDNESS, NO CAPACITY and NO POLITICAL WILL part from EMILOKAN by PBAT.
GOD RESCUE NIGERIA
