[LETTER TO NIGERIAN YOUTHS.]
PRESIDENCY 2023 IS YOUR INHERITANCE – MISS OUT AND BE DOOMED!

Stowaway was a common phenomenon mostly among youths who were passionate for greener pastures in the educational field across the world between the early twenties and late sixties!

A stowaway is a hidden passenger travelling on a bus, train, ship, aircraft, cargo truck, or haulage trailer, etc, for the purpose of evading fares!
Youths resorted to stowaway when they lacked requisite financial resources but allowed consuming ambitions to becloud their reasonableness and subsequently ended up as illegal immigrants in foreign countries – although in most cases, they were usually discovered dead on arrival!

LATE DR. NNAMDI AZIKIWE, the first indigenous Governor- General of Nigeria at independence and later the first President in 1963 when the nation attained Republican status, was a boat stowaway in his teens from the Lagos Port as a determined youth very desperate to study in the United States of America!
His dream was however aborted when he and two others were discovered in the course of the journey and were cast off at Sekondi, Gold Coast. [now Ghana], where he did menial jobs before returning to Nigeria.

In 1925 and with assistance from his civil servant father, young Azikiwe eventually travelled through legitimate channels, obtained good education up to the doctorate in Political Science and Anthropology and finally returned to Nigeria in 1937!

STOWAWAY IS NO LONGER IN VOGUE AMONG 21ST CENTURY NIGERIAN YOUTHS!

With the outbreak of the Covid-19 Pandemic in January 2019 across 202 countries of the world, Nigerians in the Diaspora, most of whom were illegal immigrants requested to be repatriated and returned to their fatherland in their thousands with testimonies that they was no place like HOME!

FOUR CATEGORIES OF YOUTHS had existed since neo-colonialist politicians took over from the British Masters in 1960:
Youths who study/groomed/polished at home and only travel abroad for international exposure BUT returned home to enhance the Human Capital, build the hydro/thermal dams and stations, industrial, manufacturing, agricultural sectors, the civil service, bureaucracy; etc.
Those who legitimately travelled abroad to enhance their destinies through quality education, returned home to contribute their quota to political and socio-economic growth;
The unscrupulous, lazy and slothful group who believe only in the get-rich-quick-mania syndrome and therefore engage in the illicit business of consuming/selling hard drugs, engaging in cyber crimes/illicit financial flows, human trafficking etc., AND,
The bitter/angry/jobless ones who would rather stay back in the country and take their pound of flesh on the politicians and by extension on the larger society, for failure to provide them with the basic amenities of life – especially sound education/employment! Now, the nation is devastated by the FRANKENSTEIN MONSTERS called Boko Haram terrorists, cattle rustlers, bandits, highway kidnappers, Fulani Herders carrying AK 47 Rifles for “protection” in public spaces, armed thugs who specialize in election malpractices, burglars, pick pockets etc.!

TASKS BEFORE NIGERIA’S 21ST CENTURY YOUTHS: STATE OF THE NATION: 1999-2021!

From 29th May, 1999, ex-President Aremu Obasanjo left no one in doubt the direction to which he was navigating the ship of the nation.
He surrounded himself with his cronies and the looting of the treasury continued unabated but claimed that he was instrumental to eradication of poverty and a sustainable economy through debt-forgiveness bargain with the Paris-London Club, whereas the so-called debts were majorly accumulated from previous military administrations!
Failure to achieve a “Third Term” through the back door, Obasanjo resorted to a do-or-die campaign slogan in 2007, and surreptitiously handed to the team of ex-presidents Umaru Yar’Ardua and Ebele Jonathan, concluded the 16 years of the most-insecure and corruptible years in Nigerian history under the watch of consecutive Peoples Democratic Party [PDP], governments!

BUHARI FAILED TO EFFECT THE CHANGE!

Initially, Nigerians strongly believed that President Buhari would perform the miracle to salvage Nigeria from the self-inflicted decadence in all spheres of governance – political, socio-economic, religious, ethnic, tribal, tradition etc,!
But alas, like his elder brother Aremu, he also surrounded himself with mediocre teams who could not tell him the TRUTH that he had retrogressed through unfulfilled campaign promises to destroy terrorism by eliminate insurgency, totally eradicate corruption and simultaneously improve and enhance all areas of the economy through injection of dedicated funds and create employment opportunities for all able-bodied citizens!

“The Needs Of The Average Nigerian To Survival.”[ Excerpts from Page 3 of Zion B-BC Newsletter, Edition 373 of 4th October, 2020.]
“The NEEDS of the average Nigerian for survival are very minimal if a RIGHTEOUS GOVERNMENT is in place:
*He needs a good job and a living wage, and in the alternative to be allotted with a moderate piece of land in his name to cultivate for all-year-round farming livelihood; a good shelter over his head, adequate security for himself and his family, constant electricity to power his machines, (grinding machines, motor bikes, “keke napep” “kabu-kabu taxis”, free education for his children from primary to Senior Secondary, good health care system for his family, flexible investment opportunities etc, etc,

With a conservative package such as mentioned above, the average citizen of Nigeria will dwell in peace without any form of agitation, will be law-abiding, will perform all civic duties without hesitation or coercion and would never engage in any form of confrontation!

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST THE NIGERIAN FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO PAMPER ITS CITIZENS?

Blockage of all wastefulness in the very unpopular Presidential System and a quick reversal to the Parliamentary which was aborted by the military shortly after independence.

Immediate move by Buhari Administration to close down the SENATE and pruning of the House of Representatives 360 members to 74!

Ministerial appointments to be limited to ONE per State and one for the Federal Capital Territory!
Employment opportunities for tertiary institution graduates and all able-bodied men/women to be engage in the various cadres of the Small and Medium Scale Industries. Others to be absorbed by the Private Sector as government restores industrialization through massive manufacturing/production and Exportation of FINISHED PRODUCTS; (there are 35 mineral deposits across the 36 States and the FCT.)

Continuous diversification to Agriculture, Mineral Extraction, Entertainment, Tourism, Film Industry, Information/Communication Technology, etc, etc,.
Re-organisation of the electoral process through necessary amendments to the ELECTORAL ACT, 2010!
Introduction of ELECTRONIC VOTING by 2023, in view of recent progress achieved by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), in the electronic transmission of results from polling to collation centers in the recently concluded EDO GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION!

Re-furbish the existing refineries through OPEN transparent biddings, encourage the construction of new MODULAR REFINERIES through private sector incentives; re-visit the recent WATER REGULATION BILL to favor all stake holders and douse all areas of tension!

Total extermination of CORRUPTION from the polity, assuring all ACTIVISTS and PRESSURE groups that all forms of nepotism in government circles are eschewed to pacify the IPOB, MASSOB, OHAN’NEZE, O’ODUA, REVOLUTION NOW, etc, etc, “PAPER ALL CRACKS IN THE POLITY AND HEAL ALL THE AGGRIEVED”, then and only then can the current administration gain the co-operation of all and sundry for peace to reign supreme!

As a matter of urgency, creation of STATE POLICE for the 36 States of the Federation should occupy the front burner of President Buhari’s agenda for urgent execution.”

NO MORE STREET PROTESTS, TAKE OVER IN 2023 IN PEACE!

It will take just one bold, passionate, patriotic and devoted YOUNG NIGERIAN to turn the scale around and end the vicious circle of all forms of insecurity, insurgency, terrorism, brigandage, crime, criminalities, lawlessness, institutional impunity, corruption, annual budget padding, “execution” of unconstitutional constituency projects by legislators, acrimony, poverty, nepotism, tribalism, ethnic agenda, institutional indebtedness, wastages and all forms of social malaise that had bedeviled Nigeria from independence till date!   

QUESTION: “Was it not high time you redeemed the covenant between you and President Muhammadu Buhari, who told you in desperation for a second term before the whole world, that you should support him and then come on board at his departure?
There can be no better time for you to begin your preparation to take over the mantle of leadership in this country once and for all!

POLITICS IS A GAME OF NUMBERS and you have at least 70 per cent of 220million population.
All you need do is to join forces together peacefully as you did during the #EndSars #EndPoliceBrutality Protests in October 2020!”

There are several politicians who served in the Legislative Arm for SIXTEEN CONSECUTIVE YEARS, (1999-2015), and are still serving in the present Change administration as if they were the proverbial "one-eyed person in a community of blind people"! For decorum and moral consideration, such persons should have given opportunity to others after two tenures at least, since they did not possibly possess the monopoly of knowledge and wisdom; but this is the political scenario that is playing out in Nigeria presently!

YOUTHS SHOULD SUPPORT ADVOCACY FOR UNICAMERAL LEGISLATURE FROM 2023!

We on this platform have consistently advocated that President Buhari should, without further delay call for a REFERENDUM TO SHUT DOWN THE SENATE AND REDUCE THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES MEMBERS FROM 360 TO 74!

Nigeria can now boast of a band of articulate, empowered, resourceful, unified, cohesive, focused, ebullient, bonded and freshly branded YOUTHS rising from the ashes of 60 years of deliberate neglect, abandonment, disorientation, manipulation and disenfranchisement of all inalienable human rights to assume positions of authority!

YOU CAN DO IT BY PRUDENTLY EXECUTING RIGHTEOUSNESS AND SHUNNING ALL FORMS OF INSTITUTIONAL CORRUPTION AND MALADMINISTRATION PERMANENTLY FROM THE SYSTEM WHEN YOU TAKE OVER! THE ALMIGHTY GOD IS ON YOUR SIDE!

“Righteousness exalts a nation but sin is a reproach to all people.”[Proverbs, 14:34].
