PROF Pat Utomi is a renowned political economist. He is well known for speaking his mind on any issue. He played huge role in enthroning the current administration but less than a year down the lane he is not happy with the direction the country is going. In this chat, he declared that Nigeria is not being led properly stressing that Nigeria is more divided today than it was two years ago. The meaning of that, according to him is failure of leadership.
What do you make of the state of affairs in the country at the moment, is Nigeria moving in the right direction?
I am not sure that right or wrong direction is the appropriate word to use. The process of change is not a straight line graph. It is chaotic , it is not all that straight.
Obviously it is understandable that Nigeri­ans are disappointed with the way somethings are going. I think it is something that helps us to reflect on how we guide and guard change and how we understand the process. To be quite frank with you, my understanding of the change process that will bring lasting solutions to our problems, it has to be very principles based. It has to be methodic. It has to look at the institution that will make things happen effectively rather than people, Nigerians looking for a messiah. The messiah complex is a very dangerous one.

Simply put truth...

STRONG INSTITUTIONS WILL BRING ABOUT A BETTER NIGERIA THAN HAVING STRONG MEN AS LEADERS.
I totally agree with you Sir on this point because the present so called strong man we have as president of Nigeria has totally failed with his change mantra. A very big disappointment indeed.

Buhari leadership style is zero. His natural habitat as a fulani Shepard boy is daura.

pat utomi played what role in bringing APC to power? I still doubt all this melodramatic mourning will get you that ministerial position.

This is like the chicken and egg question, which comes first - Strong men or strong institutions. It takes strong men to create and run strong institutions. Institutions don't run themselves.

Obviously it is understandable that Nigeri­ans are disappointed with the way somethings are going.

Utomi is so disappointed he was not appointed a minister that the has turned into a wailer.
