The Nation Newspaper Tinubu's victory: Nigeria now on pathway to economic recovery – Oludare
Convener/National Coordinator of Social Rehabilitation Gruppe , Dr. Marindoti Oludare, in this interview with Kayode Fasua, explains why his group deployed resources to boost the presidential aspiration of President Bola Tinubu, describing last week’s victory at the Supreme Court as all that ended well. Oludare, who is a Nigeria-born, US-based medical practitioner also sets varied agenda before the Tinubu administration.
You recently had a war of words on prime TV with David Hudenyi, a journalist and arch-critic of President Tinubu who lives in the Diaspora like yourself. What is the perception of majority of Nigerians in the Diaspora about the President? I won’t characterize it as control, I’ll call it regulation. We must admit social media has wrecked palpable havoc to collective fabric of our shared humanity. It use to be that children were raised by nature or nutrient, now parents can’t raise their wards anymore, algorithms raise their children for them. David Udenyin once told Olisa Agbakoba shut up on social media. That is uncouth, rude and unAfrican. We are cultured people and I’m sure David’s parent didn’t raise him that way.
I call it national Youth Servitude Corps. Since the days of John the Baptist, service has always been voluntary. There is no such thing as involuntary service. Google it. What you’ll find is just servitude. NYSC has created and perpetuated a rotating vacuum of unemployment that will never be filled until the program is scrapped. Every job allotted to Corp members can be permanently filled by a Nigerian if the scheme never existed.
They are doing exactly what they need to do. As a doctor, I tend to use the human body to analyze. Nigeria needed a radical surgery to remove multiple highly invasive cancers that we threaten the very existence of the body. During that progress pain will be caused, there will be blood loss. Blood is a connective tissue just like dollar connects our economy. The resultant blood loss might mean you’ll need to give that patient blood transfusion while on the operating table.
How much impact has your organisation, the Social Rehabilitation Gruppe, made in shaping socio-political events in Nigeria?
