I've been trying seriously to stay above some of the confusion around my state, Akwa Ibom being my first love above other states in Nigeria, but this one am utterly tired of accusing myself for being quiet! My governor has been very fond of confusing both his accusers and his followers in a miasma of projects, and plethora of missing monuments of identification, recently a good friend of mine who had been visiting our house has lost touch with were the mango tree was which is now replaced with beautiful street lights powered by nature! Am sure most of his detractors may have missed their directions after spending some weeks outside the state.
My lovely state keeps revolving around ecclesiastical feats and magnanimous drama ranging from the opposition calling the erudite 5 star hotel and conference centre an abode of sin! Not shocking enough are other recreational facilities like the Tropicana cinematography complex a master art of corrupted delusion!
Times the opposition in Nigeria makes many sick and others very ecstatic over varied topics, we should be asking some pertinent questions so that we don't create a monster and indemnify it an angel! When did development become a white corrupted elephant project? When did the sea port at Ibaka become a collateral misadventure? And whosoever that attacks the government just for the purpose of taking over ever had been better than the former?.
Many issues abound and this opposition forgets that the failure of government is the failure of all its citizens because it's citizens are human and they are not ruled by malevolent spirits! But by humans who are neither perfect nor correct! We as citizens should stop ogling with fanatic fantasy while the festered issue remains leprous and untouched, also the media houses should also be very careful on sone projected issues pouring out of its orifice, yes! It may make the headlines, it may even break box office records! It may even be most misguided for the realist and the unenlightened!
The sphere of political chasm must be arrested before the opposition will erase reality with hate and ecstatic fantasy of malevolent citizens who mean Ill because to them every leader is a potential loiter and a mindless corrupt bot that doesn't even care for the public...but they never see the hidden hand profiteering from our loss and that of our country that will never allow fixed pipes to remain sealed! This makes leadership in today Nigeria a search for utopia, and every politician is viewed in the spectacles of a biased magnifying glass where a speck becomes a mountain! And argumentum ad populum blames everyone that has a political coat minted on the saddles of leadership!
Humans are the hardest specie and democracy admonishes us to speak up both good and vile, education makes it worse, where an illiterate can never teach a proffesor! Leadership is never meant for babies and a call to action is imminent for everyone to look deeper into the sacred faucets of leadership and choose a man who above all values the ethics of a community more than a demeaning lifestyle.
Leadership is not a cake walk, before you criticize...have you ever lead before? ?? If you haven't lead before how can you know the rigors to leading different languages who never understand their boundaries?
