2027: End bad leadership with votes – Ex-presidential aspirant, Oluwadare urges Nigerians
Former presidential aspirant under the Labour Party, Faduri Oluwadare Joseph (Fadojoe), has called on Nigerians to take decisive action through the ballot to usher in a new generation of leaders and rescue the nation from years of poor governance.
Fadojoe said this in a statement on Sunday, stating that Nigeria’s progress depends on citizens embracing change and choosing leaders who prioritise the national interest over personal gain.
The Leader of the Rescue Movement for New Nigeria, also known as Rescue the Vulnerable Initiative, lamented that Nigeria is richly blessed with resources and talented citizens yet continues to underperform globally in areas such as politics, governance, sports, and healthcare.
“We are blessed with all it takes to be one of the greatest nations on earth, yet today, Nigeria is not reaching its full potential,” he said.
He also stressed that the responsibility for change lies not only with leaders but also with citizens.
Fadojoe further explained that voter apathy, lack of civic engagement, and a culture of short-term rewards have allowed ineffective governance to persist.
“The leaders we have today are a reflection of who we are as a people. These leaders emerged from among us. We keep calling for good governance, but when we meet politicians, we often focus on personal favours rather than demanding accountability,” he said.
