Local government election is by the corner, the streets are decorated with numerous campaign posters.I overheared a candidate campaigning yesterday and like any typical Nigerian politician he promised to provide water,good roads etc.
The forthcoming election had claimed it's casualties,an aspirant nicknamed hamburger was killed in Oshodi.A young girl was abducted to force her dad to drop his political ambition.
Our politics remain do or die, only God knows how many aspirants on line to be killed before the election kick off.
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo is a prolific writer and he recently wrote to President Buhari on vital economic issues. Some of the points he raised in his letter are salient and if adhered to would bring conspicuous transformation. While addressing some group of women at Eko Hotel and suites, he told them he would be writing another letter very soon. My worry is this, he had the opportunity to transform this country, Lagos-Ibadan express way and other major roads were left unattended to during his regime. Trillion of dollars was spent on power during his eight years tenure, yet power supply under his watch was comatose. Nigerians are bless with expanded sense of history, posterity would someday assess individual contribution to Nigeria project.
