SIR: When a child is born, it studies its environment and adjusts. Growing up, it learns and practises what it sees its parents and outsiders do. This is the current politico-cultural matrix in Nigeria.
As the clock ticks and the whiffs of 2023 elections caught from afar, we readily read the minds of the 2023 contestants. One or two politicians have indicated interest in the presidential race whereas some are yet to throw their hats into the ring. Generally, the hardship experienced currently in Nigeria makes it easy for electoral candidates to buy the electorate. The voters themselves, by throwing caution to the winds, also endanger balloting in Nigeria.
When the voting system of a nation goes awry and corruption is at large, imperfection sets in. In Nigeria, one sees graft cases settled out of court and the elite class over-protected by the law. It is also in Nigeria one sees a Pension boss smile and wave gaily at the crowds on his way to jail whilst pensioners in Ekiti and Benue states whine and wail. Without recourse to statistics, I maintain that just few Nigerian leaders have all it takes to fix the country.
