Divided into three major cultural groups: Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba, with 6 geographical zones namely South-East, South-South, South-West, North-East, North-East, North-West also North-Central, Nigeria boasted under the Late President Musa Yar’adua to be in a group the greatest 20 business industrial economy in the earth by the year 2020; have zero tolerance for adulteration; address tension in Niger Delta sub-region; arrest power failure in Nigeria; accommodate all its citizens irrespective of constitutional, native, or concerning belief in divinity groups; make all political office holders servant leaders, making the administration to be one that listens to the cries of the people, also; have a clear separation of establishment without interfering in the activities of other arms of administration. All these are summarized under the 7-point Agenda which the present Nigerian government under the leadership of Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan agreed to address and work together with.
In fact, the agenda has come to be more articulated today and it includes Power and Energy, Food Security, Wealth Creation, Transport Area Amend, Land Amend, Security also Education. However, it beats our creativity that a government which is foul on fighting corruption will fold its arms and watch remarkable forms of illegality advancing in the name of a bodily constitutional “exemption” clause for public servants. The case of the former Speaker of the House of Committees, Oladimeji Bankole, is still renewed in our memory. With all the reports and counter reports relating to the misbehaviours of the representatives of the National Assembly, they were affirmed to carry on with the work of law-making even in mistake.
So a lot illegalities were approved to progress for immensely long in our National Assemblies and Houses of Assembly.
