The
frenzy about who retain power in 2023 has caught the attention of an
association called Youths Ask for Better Nigeria (YAFBN). The Youths through their Secretary General,
Mallam Idris Salihu called those power mongers from the North speculating about
2023 to cool it. They also charged them
to be wary of their so-called supremacy in population. “We want a better Nigeria, with regular power
supply, good roads, infrastructure, efficient amenities, good health clinics,
hospitals, not jostling for power”, said Idris Salihu “There is nothing in mere holding on to power”,
he stated. Another said, “President
Buhari has not even settled down and some people are talking about holding on
to power”, said Abu Shettima. “There
must be accountability; there must be wisdom”, he stated. “If this is how nations are built, Singapore,
Thailand even Ghana and Rwanda would not be where they are today”, Abu Shettima
stressed, reminding those Northern Power Brokers that there is work to be done—not
all politics!
How the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan frittered away the nation’s scarce resources is beginning to spill out – despite the shrill insistence by ex-Finance Minister, Okonjo Iweala that the records sheet were clean! Information pieced together by our investigators show that several paramilitary Agencies under the Federal Ministry of Interior shared a record 10 billion each for the purpose of influencing the March 28 General Elections in favour of the defeated incumbent. However, things did not go down well with the ranks and file during the sharing. Outgoing Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Boss (name withheld) was said to have misappropriated the huge booty by allegedly pocketing 5 billion for himself, while declaring the other half (5 billion) as the sum total. The bone of contention was that while the rank and file received 40,000 each some key associates close to the big guns went home with a hefty slice. Causing the rumble.
