Ignorance is the disease
In Nigeria, however, we see combustive ‘change’ pulse with lust and self-interest among political personae. But the electorate does not know better. They fall for the same ruse, repeatedly.
We have seen this happen in successive ‘civilian’ governments from 1999 to date. Its a function of ignorance. I would call it the ritualisation of eye and mind to witlessness. They conveniently forget that cleaning with simple disinfectants and providing sanitisation stations in public places present cheaper, better alternatives.
Prominent public functionaries revealed a source, wish that Madagascar’s herbal therapy fails at clinical trials. They are wary of losing contingency funding and lootable loans accessible via international lenders, she said. Before COVID-19, Nigeria grappled with terrorism, kidnap for ransom, child and sex trafficking, armed robbery, homelessness, mental health problems, divorce, collapse, and corruption of the family unit. These are social problems requiring sustainable welfare policies but the country’s lack of a visionary and humane leadership denied the citizenry such benefits.
More radical estimates indicate that over 18 million youths were unemployed by the end of 2019. Many more have lost their livelihoods in the wake of COVID-19. Something’s got to give. Renaissance hierarchies are dramatized in the noisy climax of gladiator politics. The average voter must re-emerge decisively as political personae of a renaissance Nigeria, come 2023.
