Sections of the media tout some as the leading presidential candidates even though they show decline in cognitive and physical abilities, offer no solutions to our myriad problems or churn out fake numbers and statistics.
This is happening at a time when our nation is confronted with a war that has had devastating consequences on her people and economy. This is a period when over a 100 million Nigerians are said to be poor and about 50 million unemployed.
We have multifaceted problems that threaten our very existence, and this is no time for us to let primordial sentiments becloud our judgement. The next
president of Nigeria must in very clear terms tell Nigerians how he will create jobs for our youths and identify the specific industries that will anchor that employment.
Our President must tell us how he plans to bring this war to an end, protect our borders, highways and farmlands. He should tell us how he intends to manage our diversities, grow our economy and build an efficient workforce that can compete globally.
The next Nigerian President owes us all the duty of spelling out his plan to fix our infrastructural deficits, pay off our debts, grow tourism and support our small businesses.
This is what I and other presidential candidates owe the Nigerian people. This is what I am doing everyday.
