The Malarkey of Yahaya Bello’s Ambition to Become Nigeria’s President.

by

What has become the state of the largest country in Africa, could it be a confirmation that Nigeria as a nation has completely drifted into a sorry state when and where people who lack absolute leadership etiquette now considers the country’s top job as a circus platform to display gross ignorance in the name of seeking to lead the country?

Undoubtedly, Yahaya Bello who is presently the Governor of Kogi State reserves the constitutional right to seek for any office in the country. Howbeit, on the side of morality and sane judgment, Yahaya Bello lacks absolute everything to lead Nigeria.

The recent flooding of the social media space and airwaves of his ambition as the hope of Nigeria has left a sour taste in the mouth of many who view his aspiration as not only derogatory but insulting to the intelligence of Nigerians as a whole.

As Kogi State Governor for over 4 years and still counting, what has this supposedly young and progressive Governor done for the State and the people he is said to be leading that gives him the audacity and impetus to project himself as the only one with the magic wand to which Nigeria’s future is hinged on?

I make this assertion because if we want to fix Nigeria, people like Yahaya Bello who has completely failed to account for the massive funds running into billions that have gone through the coffers of the State under his watch should not dare project himself as the country’s political messiah.

A man who cannot pay full salaries to the State’s civil servants is completely unfit to run a complex country like Nigeria. A man whose moral judgment is always lopsided and one who believes in spilling blood for power is not near the moral requirement to be the people’s president.

A man who is laced with corruption and unprecedented human rights abuses should never be allowed near the country’s seat of power. A man so desperate to side with evil atrocities should now even be allowed to hold public office.

A man who under his watch, the education, healthcare, security, and economic state of the State collapsed, should stay from the innuendos of becoming Nigeria’s President.

The November 16th State Governorship election of Kogi explains deeply the concerns of the rot with the democratic process in Nigeria which in larger scope explains further the madness of African leaders who has seen politics as a channel to loot freely as well as orchestrate all forms of tyrannical behavior.

Having gone scot-free after spilling innocent blood and daylight rigging of the November 16 Governorship election from the law because of their conspiracies and padi-padi association, this fellow now thinks, his formula will work on the entire nation.

Mediocrity, poverty, and lack of sincerity have eclipsed the moral compass of a few young people who are seen parading this hullabaloo of Yahaya Bello wanting to be Nigeria’s President.

Why even blame him in the first place when a man without basic education is already the president.

2023 presidential race should never be for recycled politicians who have been part and parcel of Nigeria’s leadership woes.

Enough should be Enough if indeed we want a better Nigeria.
