Of recent, there have been series of decamping and defecting of government officials from the so called ruling party of Nigeria (PDP) to other political parties, (APC) in particular. Some are taking this as a positive development in the nation democracy but I want to make it clear here that we are getting it wrong. It is not about leaving PDP to APC that is our problem by officers occupying the seat of power and decision making body but it’s about the credibility of the individual himself. The same officers defecting (Governors, Members of the National Assembly and other Trustees) to APC are just doing for their political gains not for the interest of the nations. They realized that PDP may not earn them positive result to maintain power and continue the ongoing corruption and producing ineffective leadership. The same people destroyed the institutions in the country for their personal gains and placed the nation in its worst situation from creation.
The same individuals have been in power for decades that incapacitating the beautiful blessed nation and instigating for the division of the nation. The same people creates the worst insecurity in the nation today that placed the nation known for long with peace and happiness among terrorist nation. The same people using their ignorant local supporters calling for the braking of the giant of Africa, a nation that has been respected worldwide in all discipline. We have seen countries that call for division and take them to nowhere, nations that went to war and gain nothing apart from destruction, displacement, loss of lives a setback of decades that can never regain. Nigerians, we are more intelligent and exposed that we fold our arms watching these guys playing games with us in the name of democracy. All we need in Nigeria today is a very discipline, credible and God fearing people who place the interest of the nation first and top priority to mount the mantle of leadership in the country. Leadership that will realize the value of its citizen, considering the life of the masses and make the nation conducive for its citizens. It is time to keep sentiment, religion differences, regionalism, tribalism among others away and shop for the best candidates to manage our nation.
