Everyone Wants To Be President, Even Kleptomaniacs, By Abdullahi D. Mohammed | Sahara Reporters

As Nigeria brace for its next general elections, so are the expectations of citizens, especially given the multitude of challenges facing the nation, for a renewed hope to find an end to these crippling challenges.Nonetheless, what stupefied many is the twist in the entire electioneering process by major political parties, especially the APC and PDP. It is equally safe to postulate that, the 2023 elections would be an election year like no other, for obvious reasons.

If such flagrant and insensitive display of war chest, for just obtaining a form, didn't provoke a national outcry, from the citizens, then as a people, we are part of the problem. ASUU just extended their industrial action for another 3 months, meaning parents and students would bear the brunt and continue to groan, eventually.

Again, the number of out-of-school children in the country is ignominiously high, and still soaring. All of these never mattered to the political leaders. As usual, governance has been relegated to the back burner.The bar of governance and politics, as it were has been lowered, in fact, to an all-time low. Even political contestations has been reduced to a circus show, where every clown, with questionable pedigree and sense of responsibility would vie to be president.

These are inherently why we are in this perilous situation, which is predicated on the question of leadership.The PDP, though had inexplicably set the cost of its nomination form at a"modest" N40 million, even so, for a nation begging for infrastructure, end to soaring prices of commodities, quality education, improved security and host of other challenges which is insanely an existential threat, the price tag is high, when compared to other countries in Africa.

Me self want to be president of Republic of Nigeria 🤗🤗

😂🤛🤜
