Holding our leaders accountable

[Agbe]

Most are times Nigerians are good when it comes to complaining and procrastinating the problems that they are facing in the country without proffering solutions to the issues at hand, one thing that I have been able to learn and come to agreement in life is that nothing happens with out a propelling Force behind it.

The development that we are seeing in Europe and in the Americas did not just come like that but it came as a result of people's efforts and advocacy,we as citizens has failed in our role by holding our leaders to account for what they are doing with the mandate that the citizens have given them by way of elections, we must leave this present level that we are  and stand up for our right by holding our leaders accountable in their duty to providing the basic amenities and creating the right environment for Nigerians to life a good life of their dreams

The thing is that if some group of people come out to talk against the current doings of the government, some people will still be paid to oppose them knowing fully well that what the government are doing is not right.

So all of these contributes towards the apathy we see when it comes to citizens talking or organizing a movement against the wrong doings of the government or government negligence towards their roles in society or the country as a whole.

That is even the more reason that we as citizens needs to not give up on our role to play the role of a peer group by always constantly talking about the bad thing or areas that our government is not doing well wether there are people trying to oppose us or not because the fact about life is that there will always be opposition and every body will not always see things the way you are seeing it. Because government always try to bribe some citizens due to the rate of poverty that the government has put us so some citizens will sabotage what others are trying to do but we can't give up because some few individuals who has not seen reason in doing the right thing we must at all time hold our leaders to accountable by by demanding for good governance from them

I have said several times that if this country wants to start experiencing what other sister countries are experiencing, it would take a strong will and dedicated sets of individuals who are united and have a common goal and vision otherwise whatever you are doing is a waste of time. Look at Ghana, and some other African countries, it took them a strong commitment to make sure things worked out perfectly well in their various countries.

Now back to our country, the same people you are holding meetings and making arrangements with are the same people who would sabotage the whole process just for their selfish interest of enriching themselves. So what is the point when the people are not ready for the change they desire what do you want to do, would you force the change to take place?

We have long been talking about change yet most of the corrupt political officeholders were voted into power by the same youths that are clamoring for change the same youths want them to make things work out well and how do they expect them to do it when they the leaders know if they do things well, the power they have would mean nothing to the same youth who voted them in so they would withhold everything and give out crumbs so that they would sing their praise again and vote them back into office. What an irony!

To me the issues with Nigeria has to do with tribalism, i saw a tiktok post where someone showed a video of the head of the Muslim abi sharia something like that I can't remember in the video the Muslim man was complaining that the current economy is not favouring them even as they did Muslim-muslim voting, they were not voting for capable leader, leader who has goal to make the economy prosper they were voting for there brothers so they can favor them when he or she is in power they don't know that corruption is like a rain it will touch everybody. I'm not insulting anybody tribe, religion or culture but for we as a nation to progress tribalism has to stop

You're actually right because tribalism is one big problem that we have in Nigeria as the basis at which people vote during election is based on tribal affiliations and this has contributed to the bad government that we are experiencing in the country, we need to grow above this kind of mindset if we are to experience good leadership from our politicians

Those in leadership positions should have this understanding that they will be held responsible on how they live their lives and also contribute to how others leave theirs, because they are in a leadership position, they have the full responsibility of being in charge of the well-being of the people, contributing towards building a secured nation and working by how everyone will have their dreams comes a reality, and not exercising authority of the masses and not leaving by example.

If the citizens don't know there right of good governance and effective representation and keep following politicians like their lives depends on them, them these politicians will have no option than to treat the citizens with no regard and not being accountable to the citizens so before you expect politicians who are more concerned about their personal interest the citizens should stand up for their rights first before politicians will also take the citizens serious and fulfill their duty as leaders

One of the problem's of under developed countries is high level of corruption and this practice have lowered that level of treatment to their citizens.

 The level of accountability is public offices is very low and corruption seems to be the order of the day with corruption being systematic in the government offices.

Politicians has turned their selves to deme god's in this part of the world and has placed a high level of protocols around them selves making it difficult for the ordinary citizens to access them, this is due to the corruption as politicians have corruptly enriched themselves with public funds and until this kind of leadership ends in the country we as a nation cannot move forward because any where there is no transparency in a place such environment cannot develop.

Lazy people who wouldn'tove to work but prefer to be slaves to this politicians will always back them up in their manipulative activities. Imagine people fighting for the betterment of something and some are shattering their goals through violence. Low mentality and selfishness has made a lot of people sell their birth rights for porridge.

I’m always flabbergasted when I come across people who are in support of tribalism bullshit when they are conversing it will look as if they are 2 years old kids discussing how they’ll purchase their first mansion - they are all brain rot to the core.

You can see very well that a certain person is not competent to be in a position but because you know the person is from your tribe you’ll rather vote for him than someone else who is capable of doing wonders in that same office because he’s not from the same tribe as yourself. Isn’t that the highest form of insaneness?

This is an actual fact that I agree with. Basically one of the major things that needs to be tackled in this country in other for growth to be increased is the rate at which tribalism and religion has eaten deep into the system. The problem of tribalism can also be attributed to the fact that Nigeria is a very diverse country coupled with a relatively large land mass.

They are way too many tribes and ethnic groups in Nigeria which is part of the reason why religion and tribe is a limiting factor in most sections including politics.

This is the major issue we are facing here in our country, tribalism has eaten deep into the fabrics of our system.  This has kept the country were it is today. There is nothing like unity in the eyes of ethnic groups we have in this country as everyone wants to support theirs without even having a proper examination if their own person they are gunning for is fit or capable for the position they ought to put them.in. As a result of this attitude in there have been lots of mistakes in the leadership of the nation were people with poor mentality occupy exalted offices and can not do what is expected of them instead they embezzle funds and resources just because they have poor vision and does not fit for the position they were elected into.

Till we do away with that ethnicity sentiment, this country would still be as it is and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

Aside from tribalism being a huge hindrance in the growth of our economy I think religion has now started to play a part in it as well.

In most society or gatherings, you’ll see some Muslims constantly disagreeing with someone not because they are wrong but because that idea or opinion is coming from someone who is not a believer of their religion, and this too is a factor for slow economic growth.
