THIS ESSAY TITLED ON BUHARI I STILL STAND BY MR DELE MOMODU, A MAN OF OVER 50 YEARS OLD IS A SAD INDICTMENT OF HIS GENERATION OF NIGERIANS. ALL OVER THE WORLD NATIONAL POLITICAL LEADERSHIP IS USUALLY AND IS CURRENTLY EXERCISED BY AN GENERATION OF CONTEMPORARY LEADERS BETWEEN 45-60 YEARS OF AGE. THIS IS BECAUSE THAT IS THE AGE WHEN PEOPLE REACH THE PEAK OF THEIR WORKING LIVES AND POSSESS THE RELEVANT CONTEMPORARY EXPERIENCE FOR EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP. FOR A GENERATION OF MEN IN THIS AGE BRACKET WHO ORDINARILY SHOULD BE STANDING AND OFFERING THEMSELVES FOR NATIONAL LEADERSHIP LIKE DELE MOMODU, NASIR EL RUFAI, BABATUNDE FASHOLA, ADAMS, ROTIMI AMEACHI, OLUSOLA SARAKI, SIMEON KOLAWOLE AND CO TO BE WRITING ARTICLES CALLING THEMSELVES BUHARISTS, CLAIMING TO BE FOLLOWERS OF A PENSIONER WHO CANNOT ARTICULATE A SINGLE COHERENT VISION OR POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC PLAN, A MAN WHO HAS DONE THE MOST TO DISRUPT THE EVOLUTIONARY NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS (A CRIME FOR WHICH HE HAS NEVER APOLOGIZED FOR, AND WHICH LEAD TO TWO WASTED DECADES IN OUR NATIONAL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, A RECESSION WHICH IS FINALLY BEING REVERSED BY THEIR BRAVE AND COURAGEOUS AGE MATE DR. GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN AGAINST ALL ODDS) IS EXTREMELY SAD AND EXTREMELY SHAMEFUL. I SERIOUSLY WONDER IF PEOPLE LIKE DELE MOMODU AND CO...STOPPED GROWING MENTALLY AT AGE 16? NO WONDER THEIR AGE MATE FELA ANIKULAKPO KUTI OR BLESSED MEMORY CALLED THEM MR FOLLOW FOLLOW MAKE YOU OPEN EYE IN HIS SONG IN 1980S. IF THEY BELIEVE THEY AND THEIR GENERATION ARE NOT READY AND ARE NOT CAPABLE TO HANDLE NATIONAL LEADERSHIP, WHAT THEY NEED TO TO IS TO ADMIT THEIR FAILURE AND PASS DOWN (NOT PASS UP), I REALLY MEAN PASS DOWN THE BATON OF NATIONAL LEADERSHIP TO A GENERATION BELOW THEM. THERE ARE MORE THAN ENOUGH TALENTED NIGERIANS WHO FALL INTO THE GENERATION BELOW THEM AGE 35-44, ALL OVER THE WORLD WITH MODERN IDEAS AND EXPERIENCE AND LEADERSHIP SKILLS TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY TO GREATER HEIGHTS. WE DO NOT NEED ANY MORE FAILED, RECYCLED, WASHED UP, 1980S OLD BREED POLITICIANS AND MILITARY OFFICERS WHO ONLY KNOW OF VIOLENT POLITICS, WHO DESTROYED NIGERIA IN THE 70S AND 80S (LIKE LAI MOHAMMED, BUHARI, SEGUN AKANDE AND CO) TO DESTROY IT AGAIN AND SET US BACK ANOTHER 3 DECADES. IT IS NON NEGOTIABLE THAT NIGERIA MUST MOVE FORWARD. FORWARD EVER!!! BACKWARDS NEVER!! FORWARD NIGERIA!!!!
