Reading through the list of Nigeria’s worsts-in-the-world below, compiled from 2017 and 2018 media releases, one can only conclude that only illiterates, those paid and the wicked will support the two main parties in Nigeria and their candidates across all posts. Under the rule of PDP and its APC offspring, Nigeria has succeeded in reaching and remaining at the bottom of the earth barrel. 16 years of PDP and 4 years of APC have only maintained Nigeria as a last in most indices of life and development.

It is also no secret that Nigeria comes first in stupendously rich politicians, traditional rulers and priests. That is where the country comes first. The nation also comes first in recycling its rulers. Governors transfer to the senate and then back to governorship. Senators become governors. Presidents and vice presidents come back after a few years for second and third stints in the presidency. Military rulers douse their fatigues and return to rule as civilians. The recycling has no limit. Nigeria is world capital for politician recycling.

Nigeria needs change and a chance. The upcoming 2019 elections provides a rare opportunity for a new wave of new generation and new mind representatives, senators, governors and a new president. Will Nigerians fight to make this happen and reclaim their destiny or will they stay with the old idea-bereft cabal who have kept Nigeria in the trenches?
