A Development Consultant and Strategist, Dr Agu Ojukwu, has impressed on candidates seeking election into political offices in 2023 to rather bury their aspirations if they do not have the needed economic blueprint to liberate Nigeria out of her current economic woe.
Addressing a press conference in Umuahia, Abia State capital, Ojukwu noted that Nigeria’s economy was bleeding profusely, and needed a quick fix, adding that the country cannot afford another ‘go slow economic drivers’, if it must survive.
The former Economic Adviser to ex-governor of Abia State, Theodore Orji appealed to aspirants and candidates seeking political offices in 2023 to seek to understand the mechanism for rapid economic development, saying the people have become impatient and will not tolerate any delay in improving their lives.
He said what Nigerians need is for aspirants and candidates to tell them how they will take them (Nigerians) to the future of their individual potentials.
The Expert lamented the precarious condition of the Nigeria economy, and said that only a visionary leader would navigate the country out of the woods.
He challenged incumbents to objectively appraise their performance so as to provide guide to their successors to know how to improve on their lapses.
Dr Ojukwu urged Nigerians to jettison primordial sentiments, party and religious affiliations, and vote for the most credible and competent candidates at the 2023 polls.
The Expert urged Nigerians to be careful of who to vote into power as the next President and Governors of various states considering the enormous role of the occupants of both seats in economic recovery and survival of any society.
The Development Consultant stressed that for the Nigeria economy to recover from its dangerous slope, caution must be exercised to ensure that only competent persons with proven track records were elected into power as President and Governors.
He cautioned the electorates against praise singing but challenged them to engage the aspirants and candidates in robust discussions of their agenda to revamp the failing economy.
