“President-elect Tinubu faces enormous tasks after May 29, 2023. His strength as a pugilist and strategist may serve him well. Let's hope for socioeconomic progress.”
“To live in an open democratic society has a price tag. If you love your freedom, you will not underestimate the alluring values of democracy.” – Yahaya Balogun
Ruefully, my prayer for Tinubu would be Tai Solarin’s ace prayers for himself during the usual New Year ritual celebration on January 1, 1968. Tai Solarin’s historic prayer “May Your Road Be Rough” was a prayer he wished everyone, including himself. The prayer generated a lot of controversies and prodded the mind of the Nigerian people with profound meanings during the period.
It is important to re-emphasize for Tinubu the need to begin the implementation of the following socioeconomic and political prescriptions for Nigeria’s intractable problems. The following simple solutions are crucial and should be considered in an instant to resolve our intractable problems in Nigeria: 1. Declare a state of emergency on security and energy to ensure sustainable job security for all citizens.
Inextricably, no matter how many achievements the current and previous regimes must have claimed, the system’s insecurity, inequity, and unfairness will further create a polarised nation and fuel chaos, unrest, and hopelessness. The current arrangement in Nigeria is fraught with injustices, ethnic jingoism, and inefficient leadership. It is not sustainable development, and the ineffectual outgoing Buhari administration on security is claiming more innocent lives.
