Dr. Ime S. Ekpo is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Incarnate Holdings Limited. He s the Village Head of Utu Edem Using and Clan-Head-elect of Otoro Ubo Clan, in Ikot Ekpene local government area of Akwa Ibom State.
Over the years, Dr. Ekpo has taken centre stage in analysing the state of the nation and its political future. In this discourse, Obong Uforo Ikot Ekpene takes the critical analysis on the perspectives of Nigerian politicians with their selfish interests

As far as I am concerned, and as a representative of the people, especially on topical national issues, the ruling party in Nigeria is not doing anything different from past governments. For years, we have been yearning for internal sustainable democracy, but we are very far from it.
The central government and its 36 states have abandoned their manisfestos. Promise's are not kept.
There is no strong leadership, nd decision-taking is slow-so we are having many crises and controversies all over.
Political parties are not exclusive or participatory enough. Nigeria's politics is personality-based. People want to exercise authority and dictates what happen in parties. Those who have looted the government treasury become godfather figures, winning elections and claiming power, all to acquire more wealth and protect their investments, arrogating power to themselves.
There is no transparency and accountability in the political system.
Politicians do not take care of those who elected them into power and reach out to them r carry them along.
Candidates are imposed on voters. Those candidates are not their choice and not the right candidates.
Politicians acquire power to deal with their opponents and to solve their personal problems. They are not there to make policies that will affect the lives of the people.
Looking at the background of this, I feel Nigeria is unripe for true democracy and corruption in all arms of governments has become an un repented virus that has destroyed the fabrics of our political history.

hahahahahahaha....
