Should We Give Our Tomorrow To A Yesterday Leader..? by darepoju(m): 7:12am On Jan 26, 2015 |
I WILL NOT GIVE MY TOMORROW TO A YESTERDAY LEADER. I was in the primary school, in 1983 to 1985, when Gen. Pa Muhamadu Buhari was my head of state. Like every other past leader he did his best to make Nigeria grow. I don't want to talk about what he did with the wrong methods. Now I'm almost a grandfather, my teachers used to tell us then that we are the leaders of tomorrow. It is either my teachers lied or the tomorrow has not come after 32years? Or is my generation a lost-in-the-middle generation? Buhari wants to be my president again? This must a big joke. Between that time and now, Pa Buhari has stopped learning, he has not added value to his life since the past 32 years. (He can not even remember his phone number- GEJ). He has lost all youthful agility and energy, he can not even analyse simple economic or political issues coherently. I'm not saying I hate Pa Buhari or he didn't do all he did for this nation at different times. My point is that we have plenty other past leaders who had served the nation at one point or the other. I challenges APC of selfishness. The real verifiable change would have been any combination of some of the following digital, forward looking, youthful, intelligent, energetic and performing APC members viz: Fashola, Rochas, Tambuwah, Nda Isaiah, Kwankwoso or even Oshiomhole and Amaechi. All the fine methods Pa Buhari succeeded with in his time as a military dictator will certainly not work at this time -T. I'm not a die-hard fan of GEJ, but Pa Buhari is certainly not the change agent from GEJ. I think and I believe that GEJ represents a change from the old order which Pa Buhari belongs. Buhari seem to me like a person who has bottled up anger against some few Nigerians. He must acquire political power at all cost (including even allegedly sponsoring many killings) to pay back because he does not forgive. As an elder statesman, who claimed to love Nigeria, let him (He has said he can) help us end insurgency. He even avoided talking for Boko Haram when they appointed him their representative sometime ago. No, he must be president before he will agree to help stop this senseless killing of the people he claim to love. ( Pretentious bigot) APC missed a golden opportunity to actually change the leadership of this country but, Pa Buhari and Pa Tinubu allowed their personal self interest supersede the change interest of APC and the entire Nigerians. We all need change, we all yearn for change, but it will be very undiscerning and uninformed to embrace change only for the sake of change. It is baffling the way some Buhari supporters are going about selling this "blind change" to us as if Buhari has a magic wand which he intend using to whip all Nigerians into submission. I refuse to flow along this "blind change" I refuse to give my tomorrow to a yesterday's leader. Signed: Avann Harvey. 12-01-2015 |

Is your today better than your yesterday? I will leave you to answer loads of question when you read Prof.Chukwuma Soludo recent piece. One USDollars now exchange for #210Naira . Electricity bill, Fuel bill and the general cost of living. I would rather have a Change when things do not work as it should than let fear, sentiments decide my tomorrow. I deserve a better life, a better living, the past six years has shown me that things has taken a turn for the worst. The question should rather be Do I need a change from what presently ails my country and my answer is YES! Take a stock of your yesterday and be the judge. May God's help come speedily! Amen |
