Nigeria: Political Elite Obsessed with 2027 Elections While Country Suffers
Colaboradores
Nigeria is facing a crisis that goes beyond mere misgovernance; it's a national psychological fracture. The ruling elite's obsession with the 2027 elections is a dangerous detachment from reality, a grand hallucination while ordinary Nigerians suffer.
A Delusional Focus on the Future
While people hunger, hospitals collapse, and farmers are butchered, the powerful see only the 2027 elections. They are engrossed in seats, titles, and schemes, moving with the arrogance of immortals. This preoccupation with the future, when even tomorrow is not guaranteed, is spiritual arrogance and political psychopathy.
Governor Otti's Warning
Governor Alex Otti has spoken out against this delusion, reminding the political class that “Today is certain; tomorrow is a promise. Next tomorrow is gambling.” This intervention highlights the impermanence of power and the need to focus on the present.
Concerns Over Leadership
Falana, Yahaya, and Audu have also raised spiritual, political, and moral concerns over the current leadership's focus on the distant future, urging a return to addressing the immediate needs of the Nigerian people. The nation needs leaders who are grounded in reality and committed to solving the pressing issues of today.
- Insecurity stalks the highways.
- Sickness, hunger, and despair shorten lifespans daily.
- The 2027 election is still over two years away.
Nigeria needs a shift in focus from the mirage of 2027 to the concrete realities of today to ensure the well-being of its citizens.
