In a critical statement, former education minister Oby Ezekwesili urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to learn the meaning of sacrifice firsthand before encouraging his countrymen to do the same. In a video released by News Central TV, Ezekwesili made these comments while discussing many topics affecting Nigeria, such as privatization, governance, and the condition of the judiciary.
She is well-known for her outspoken views on transparency and good government. The privatization process, according to Ezekwesili, is a major cause for concern, especially in the energy industry. Instead of being managed openly and for the public good, she said that influential political players were taking over the process and manipulating vital industries like energy.
Her main point was that privatization has frequently benefited powerful politicians at the cost of the country’s progress. Ezekwesili, a staunch advocate of transparency and responsible leadership, stated that Nigeria’s privatization initiatives had fallen short of public expectations. She said that many Nigerians were left to suffer while a small group of prominent people profited from these programs because political maneuvering had ruined their potential.
Not only did Ezekwesili criticize privatization, she also spoke about the court in Nigeria. Particularly in the wake of the 2023 elections, she voiced her displeasure with the way politics has influenced the court system. She claimed that political forces had taken over the court system, making it impossible for the public to have faith in the justice system. She begged Nigerians to see the big picture and do something about the structural problems that are holding the country back.
Ezekwesili foretold that the political climate in 2027 will be rife with problems similar to those that surfaced in the 2023 elections. She made a passing reference to the legal fights that ensued after the last election cycle’s use of manipulative tactics. Amidst the political dysfunction that has stymied Nigeria’s progress, Ezekwesili urged his fellow citizens to see the country’s worth and do all they can to rescue it.
The seriousness of the country’s governance problems and the need to hold powerful people to account were both emphasized by her passionate plea. She emphasized the need of the Nigerian public demanding more effective and honest leadership as the country prepares for its 2027 elections.
“As we enter 2027, we are aware of the type of shenanigans that occurred in the 2023 elections, and their subsequent actions were to threaten legal action,” she stated. They have captured the entire legal system and urged you to take them to court. It is imperative that the people of Nigeria realize the value of their nation.
