The level of decay in the Nigerian system may impede the
country’s next president from achieving immediate results, former Education
minister, Oby Ezekwesili, has said.
Ezekwesili made this assertion while appearing on Channels
TV’s Political Paradigm, scheduled to air on Tuesday noon.
In an except of the interview, the former education minister
noted that regardless of who won the presidential election in 2023, immediate
results might be difficult due to the decaying system.
She said, “Candidates who are running for elections must
tell electorates the bitter truth.
“The bitter truth is that the country is not in a place for
any President to immediately deliver results.
“What matters is that
you have a President who understands the problems that need to be solved and
has an idea of how to go about solving it.
“Any candidate who is promising instant results after the
2023 elections is not being fair to you.
“So it is important that we understand that citizens must be
ready for the work ahead because it is going to require everybody working
together to make this happen.”
The presidential and National Assembly elections have been
scheduled for February 25, 2023.
