Sir: Nigeria today experiences crisis of leadership not because democratic government/federal system we practise are on their own bad systems or cannot provide the needed solution to the nation’s array of political and economic needs but because too many politicians and public officials have exercised power and responsibility not as a trust for public good but as an opportunity for private gain.
In the past six years, Nigerian workforce has grown but the number of manufacturing jobs has actually declined as a result of the relocation of these industries to neighbouring African countries. A development occasioned by the inability of the Federal Government to guarantee security and electricity.
To give one example, in 2005, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo administration and 2010, under Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, Federal Government made two feeble attempts, coming up with the electric power sector reform, EPSR, ACT 2005 and the roadmap for power sector reform of 2010, which was targeted at sanitising the power sector, ensure efficient and adequate power supply to the country.
