The argument that state governors will misuse any security force under their power is equally fraudulent. The greatest champion of impunity and self-help in Nigeria over the years is the federal government — and no one has suggested that we should strip the federal government of the power to control forces of coercion.
That is precisely why those in power think they are doing the nation a favour. Once in power, they become fiefs, no longer responsible to the people but above the people. Since 1999 when “Baba Obasanjo” came on the democratic scene, what Nigeria has been operating is Babacracy — government of Baba, for Baba and by Baba. Baba is infallible. Baba is a gift to Africa. Long live Baba!Some states in Nigeria are bigger and more populous than several countries in Africa and Europe.
To make progress, we don’t have to remain rooted at the spot our forebears left off. We cannot continue tilling the soil of our collective development with the rusty hoes inherited from pre-history. The rest of the world is cultivating, nurturing and investing in their youth to become technological natives.
