The presidential candidate of the Allied Congress Party of Nigeria (ACPN), Dr. Obiageli Ezekwesili, has expressed fear in the conduct of Nigeria’s political class, saying that many in the group are not interested in supporting reforms.
Speaking at the Chatham House, London, on Tuesday, she charged the Nigerian political class to be more committed to people-oriented reforms towards having a better country.
Chatham House is a global centre for policy research and debate on Africa politics.
Ezekwesili said that government was a mere means of livelihood for many people in the nation’s political class.
The ACPN presidential candidate, who warned that Nigeria was in grave danger of falling into difficulties, which its contemporaries started mitigating many years ago, said that the “time is now for the political class to chart a way forward.”
“At my core, I have never been able to tolerate injustice, especially when it has to do with the weakest in the society,” She concluded.
