As
2019 draws near for the general election in the country, the United Nations
Ambassador, Mr. Felix Johnson Osakwe has call on the Federal government of
Nigeria to provide the needs of the citizens, saying Nigerians are still far
away from the desire change they dreamt for.
Mr.
Johnson Osakwe made the call through his Director General, Mr. Olakunle Johnson
in his office at Oko-Afo, Badagry axis on Tuesday.
He
said what Nigerians are seeing presently in terms of road, electricity, power
and healthcare are not what they are expecting both from the State and Federal
government.
According
to, Mr. Olakunle Johnson, he said there is need for Nigerians to realize that
to get the needed change expected, everyone must change their perception about
how politics is being played, but pay more attention to good governance that
will promote equal opportunities where people in the rural areas can benefit
immensely from the basic necessity of life.
In his
words, he said "There is no sense in pursuing national development when we
cannot guarantee every Nigerians equal opportunity. As long as the spread of
progress is limited to Nigeria, the largest cities whilst the rural communities
are left with basic necessities such as good roads, power, healthcare, we
cannot said to be a great nation."
He
therefore called on Nigerians particularly the youths to actively involved
in the politics so that they can be able to choose candidates both at the
state and at the Federal level to actualize their dreams.
