A Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Mr. Olisa Agbakoba, has known as on Nigerians of all creed and tongue to take benefit of the rave of the moment in Nigeria called the National Intervention Movement (NIM) to place the nation where it rightly belongs by demanding superior leadership at all time from the political class.
He referred to as on Nigerians to wrest power from the political elite for the betterment of the society.
Agbakoba who visibly lamented the existing ‘pathetic’ state of the country, highlighted the many wrongs in the system, saying it was time Nigerians known as their leaders to order via a credible and apolitical platform like the NIM.
At a media parley yesterday in Lagos, the maritime lawyer cum activist who disclosed that on November 29, he and other concerned Nigerians, out of severe anxiety about the state of the nation, decided to initiate NIM as a platform to uplift and ‘defreeze’ Nigerians (who he stated are frozen proper now) so as to salvage what is left of the country.
According to him, Nigerians require a coherent platform to avert terrible leadership in the country, hence the constitution of NIM, adding that "we want a functioning democracy where political workplace holders are accountable to the individuals, public institutions are strengthen and the rule of law functions.
"We want the government to perform for Nigerians. Presently, it is not. President Muhammadu Buhari needs to take his job seriously by sacking his complete cabinet mainly because they have failed. In the meantime, he is sleeping on the job."
Agbakoba, who noted that against the insinuation that he has the backing of some political bigwigs, stated that former President Olusegun Obasanjo did not give him any assistance in the formation of NIM, adding that NIM is a political movement but not a political celebration, and has no political interest at the moment.
He explained that "membership of the movement is totally free and quick. Participation will be based on social media among other individuals to galvanise Nigerians to speak against terrible government in one voice. Changing the way our political leaders consider and act is what the movement is all about. The movement which was formed by G90 does not hold onto anybody’s political ideology or interest, it does not also stop any member’s political interest but should be distant from the movement for the reason that it is strictly apolitical."
On the many wrongs in the program which the former Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) president said led to the initiation of NIM, he asked: "Why for instance has no one been fired for Mainagate? What is government strategy for unemployment? 70percent of our young individuals are unemployed, and this is alarming!
"What is the federal government plan for energy? Ought to the privatisation method be reversed? Why are our bidding and procurement processes failing? Why is government still appropriating billions of naira for turnaround upkeep of dead refineries?
"At the states, governors ought to deploy state resources effectively. For example, Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos State is fixing federal roads when state roads are deplorable Governor Rochas Okorocha is erecting status of all sorts of individuals when Imo State owes pensioners Governor Ayodele Fayose is creating Christmas clothing for kids but has not paid Ekiti State workers, and on his personal, Governor Nyesom Wike is employing River State revenue to purchase SUVs for members of the National Assembly. All these should cease! Is it not a scandal that oil making states like Rivers, Bayelsa, Abia, Delta amongst other individuals owe salaries? So the Nigerian individuals will use this movement to guide as nicely as cut the excesses of their political leader. Enough is adequate!"
Agbakoba also urge Nigerians to use the medium to demand that self-assurance return to the country’s judiciary, adding that "how come corruption instances involving politicians never terminate in our courts? Governors accused of corruption following office, get judicial immunity? Politicians charged with corruption present themselves for public workplace in every election circle some are even senators creating laws for the country.
