Omo-Agege Urges Nigerians to Hold their Leaders Accountable
The Deputy Senate President, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, has charged Nigerians to hold their leaders accountable for their actions or inactions.
Omo-Agege, who was represented by his Senior Special Assistant on Speech Writing, Dr Chuba Keshi, identified two central areas where Nigerians can develop leadership models and strategies to include national spirit and effective political participation by the led. “A common national spirit is the easiest vehicle that accords legitimacy to any leadership. It is the easiest vehicle that commands patriotism and it is what galvanises the people to go the extra mile to selflessly pursue and accomplish tasks that pertain to national duties and development.
“When this is the political climate, there is no way bad leaders can emerge. Even when they do by some default, they would either shape up or ship out. These are two areas we need to interrogate more closely.”
