A former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode says the choice of Nigeria’s president in 2023 will go a long way in pulling the country from the brink of collapse and imminent implosion.
The controversial peoples democratic party (PDP) stalwart said president Muhammadu Buhari’s successor would determine whether the country would remain one, noting that Nigeria’s next president must be strong-willed, impartial, clear minded, dispassionate, thoughtful and benevolent character.
Fani-Kayode opined that the political struggle in the country has nothing with political leaning, noting that the struggle was now between apostles of secession and agents of integration and unity.
In a post on his verified Twitter handle on Tuesday morning, Fani Kayode, said the quandry and precarious situation the country finds itself in will be exacerbated if someone who’s not in tune with the nation’s reality is elected as president.
The tweet reads: “The struggle in Nig. politics is no longer between the 2 major parties,namely PDP & APC, but between the integrationists, who believe in a united, unbreakable Nigeria & the separatists who believe in the balkanisation of our country into various sovereign, independent nations.
“The choice we make for President in 2023 will ultimately determine which of the two sides wins that Struggle.
“If we make the right choice and elect a young, strong, decisive, tough, clear-headed, clear-thinking, de-tribalised, level-headed, restrained, sensitive, kind and compassionate bridge-builder who is ready to do the right thing, restructure the federation, establish justice and equity, liberate the oppressed, take away the pain of the people and heal their wounds Nigeria may just survive.
“However, if we make the mistake of electing a rudderless, incompetent geriatric, an egocentric intellectual barbarian and a bumbling and ineffectual fool whose lust for power and wealth is insatiable, who is detached from reality, who suffers from acute dementia, who refuses to acknowledge the cracks and divisions in our body politic and nation, whose only interest and motivation is the acquisition of primitive wealth and who has no interest in righting the wrongs of the past& building bridges across ethnic, regional& religious lines then our nation will break into a thousand piecies and never”.
