Senator Shehu Sani, a prominent Nigerian political commentator and former lawmaker, has urged former Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, to personally lead any protest he advocates for.
In a statement made on his verified Twitter account, Sani called on Amaechi, a high-ranking politician, to “organise and lead the kind of protest he wants or wishes to see.”
This comment appears to be a reaction to recent public discussions in which Amaechi voiced concerns about certain national issues, including government policies and their impact on the citizens. As a major figure within the All Progressives Congress (APC), Amaechi has been vocal about his dissatisfaction with some aspects of the administration, which has sparked debates regarding civil action and demonstrations.
Sani’s message emphasizes the need for leaders to take direct responsibility when calling for change. By suggesting that Amaechi should “lead by example,” Sani implies that political leaders advocating for protests should be willing to step forward and be at the forefront of such movements.
This statement comes at a time when Nigeria faces various socio-political challenges, with citizens increasingly demanding accountability and transparency from their leaders. Sani’s tweet highlights a broader sentiment of frustration among Nigerians regarding leadership roles in addressing the nation’s problems….Vîew – Morê
