Former Prime Minister of Britain, Boris Johnson, yesterday, said Nigerians should have the right to choose their leaders saying that development can only thrive in a democracy. He also charged Nigerian politicians to ensure that millions of Nigerians realise their potential, identifying education and equal rights as part of the major conditions for unleashing potentials of citizens.

He noted that while millions of Nigerians are yet to reach their full potential, it behoves politicians to create conducive environment in which people can unleash their potential, “because not only that it is morally right, it is surely right if we care about human development and to give everyone the chance to express their potential.”
He called for an open society where diversity can be tolerated, explaining that such made London a hub of talents. “You need a society that is open and that is tolerant to develop human potentials,” he said, adding that, “urban successes are built on freedom under the law.” Welcoming dignitaries to the event, Charles Anyiam-Osigwe said the lecture “is an adventure within the bounds of the submission of Emmanuel Anyiam-Osigwe on how we can vastly realise a better world order. It is in this construct that he variously espouses on man as the primary moving force of sentient existence. In his fragments, he avers that ‘man is the centre of the universe’.
Anyaoku spoke glowingly about the achievements of Mr. Johnson, especially in making the welfare of the people a priority.“He has so far left legacies in modern British politics. He was the Prime Minister, who followed the decision of the majority of the British people…it was he, therefore who got Brexit done.
The application was supported by a 15-paragraph affidavit, which annexed three exhibits as A1, A2 and B. In a statement released by his Special Adviser on Media and Communications, Simon Imobo-Tswam, he said: “Article 57 of the PDP Constitution as amended in 2017 expressly prohibits any organ of the party or executive committee of the party at the Ward or State level from taking any disciplinary measure against any member of the party’s National Executive Committee.”
