He said politics had become a big business in Nigeria, adding that many drug barons and Internet scammers have flocked into politics to avoid being arrested.

The Anambra State governor-elect, Charles Soludo, has called for a new liberation movement in Africa and Nigeria.Soludo, an ex-governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, who won the November 6, 2021 Anambra governorship election on the platform of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, spoke on Saturday.

He said, “Indeed, Africa needs a new liberation movement. The first struggle was liberation from the colonial masters. The second will be liberation from rentier politics and politicians. For me, there is almost a sense of nostalgia, recalling the mission and accomplishments of our founding fathers, especially as we contemplate the world without oil in Nigeria.

“Much of the existing social order is founded on competition for, and distribution of, rents. Oil and the easy money that came with it destroyed the social fabric and the elite created new institutions and political structures to maximise their gains. As the noose tightened globally on other rentier/criminal enterprises such as drug trafficking or internet scamming, many of the barons flocked into politics as the next easy alternative.

“Politics has become big business. Appointment or election into public office is seen largely as an opportunity to ‘eat’ rather than a call to selfless service. There is an army of rich who have never worked or done any productive work in their life and believe that it is their right to expect something for nothing.

“The tiny less than one per cent elite have a stranglehold on the public purse, sprinkling occasional crumbs to the citizens as ‘dividends of democracy’. The citizens themselves either out of helplessness or acquiescence join the party, expecting the politicians to dole out pittance out of public treasury as charity.”

Supreme court gov

Who doesn’t know. Ikpeazu of Abia and Hope Uzodinma of Imo and Proper Example.

Are you not a politician also?

And Secret cult members

I hope you do a better job that will produce future politicians that will become bureaucrats/intelligentsias like you. At least starting from the sub national will go a long way. Also we need unity to enable you produce a better result.

True

Call names please 😂… that clown in Imo state 😂

You better watch what you said about them otherwise they will come after you because they are watching & listening is true of what you said.

Anybody who is a keen follower of Nigerian politics knows about what he's saying, that's the reason for the expensive cost of prosecuting election's in Nigeria. They monitized the electoral process cause that's what they have going for them, illicit wealth.

Soludo we are waiting to see your magic

Facts

Sure

You are right .I pray almighty will give you grace to deliver faithfully

Charlie Nwa Mgbafor, my Governor! Please slow down. You might have your reasons and perhaps, evidence. But my Anambra has a lot of problems for now, please fix them and leave that to Nigeria wasteful Politicians.

100% in agreement.

This table you are shaking the legs no good.

E be like say we don elect comedian as a governor.

Give specifics.

Oga soludo please face another country.... Nigeria politicians are free from this allegations

I love this revelation, it's from experience but Mr. Governor please be careful we want you alive. Use your position to bring about policy that will impact your subjects.

This man talks too much.

And RITUALISTS SUCKING THE BLOOD OF NIZOORIANS (Nigerians) and SELLING THEIR ORGANS ABROAD.

I am sure you have touched the sore of some people's wounds

First thing first, declare your assets now. Including your financial status before and after you were made CBN governor.

We know, aren't they d violent that are taking evrythin by force? They ar all criminals, wicked & unreasonable men wich d bible talks about Nevertheless, lead by examples and let the real change tht will consume d entire nation begin frm Anambra state, d land of THE RISING SUN 🌄

RealtorMrAdex Fact only

I think Soludo is talking too much.

Talking too much these days. Wisdom is in bridled tongue

What are you Mr. Governor Elect?

We know broda, nobe today na while we they emulate them too.

That's y they always think upside down...

You are a governor elect not the new NDLEA boss. Focus on your job, your state needs you.

More than that.

I'm worried and concerned if all these statements, I read in recent times, are coming from Soludo.

Ibo latun jasi bayi o

Soon they will come after him

Oga, off the mic. Their cronies here here are hypocritically berating yahoo boys.

This is how u know a new politician they run mouth a lot Make me your data plug

Eg Dino Melaye

We know that Uzodinma is among the evil

Ifb

Maybe Soludo is another Igbo man that will match or surpass Peter Obi pedigree.

Also add money LAUNDERING...

This is the ugliest truth. One of the current presidential hopeful or hopeless was a drug victim and he was deported back to Nigeria in 1994 by the United States of America on plea bargain. He is walking free here in Nigeria. Quite sad. We all know him.

Ehen na .. difft shit dey sup for naija na .. omor game. On jare .. film Kno dey finish for naija my country

Very very very true

But what can we do to cleanse this nation of all this?

The guy is correct.

We knew sir.

Instead of doing Yahoo Yahoo, Learn a high income skill that can pay you for life Or start an online business with less than 80k You will be good! How do I get that less than 80k to start? Send me a DM, let me show you

Does this mean that he would take on Anambra Fraudsters and Drug Barons and eradicate them?

This soludo looks like he is going to work o

Concentrate oga, concentrate, u never do anything yet. No need making unnecessary utterances. U have a lot of work to do, obiano did a terrible work as a governor, u have a lot of covering up to do for him or war to go with him Save this energy u will need it CCSoludo

A former CBN governor should know what he's saying but then, the less he talks the better for him.

I don't think that they can allow this man to have rest of mind in his sit..

It is a sad truth. They are fraudsters of all kinds. It is conspicuously entrenched in their behavior towards the people.

Sir your mouth, touch it there is something there, na abatabe abata, eh!!

Off the mic Your Excellency.

We know already,hope uzodinjo and rochas and co

APC propaganda done come.

This people that is calling their miserable self nigeria are as useless as niger-area look at how their stupidly attacking somebody that is speaking the truth

You are right on this. The reason is because they are only ones with enough disposable income and time to 'play politics.' Nigerian politics is too expensive and violent. 'The difference between Nigerian politicians and criminals is not clear.' ----- Anonymous
