Nigeria is stagnant despite enormous human and material resources because its leaders are greedy and selfish, a female presidential aspirant, Mrs. Eunice Uche Atuejide, has stated.
She further said the leaders are lacking in vision but bent on enriching themselves with national wealth.
She spoke while declaring her presidential ambition in Abuja at the weekend.
According to her: “Men and women who rule us are greedy with an overwhelming degree of selfishness. They go into government simply to “chop their portion of the national cake”.
“They are into government to pay lip-service to the manifestos they give the electorate to get them voted into power.”
Atuejide said the only way to move the country forward is by putting the right people in position of leadership.
While offering herself for the presidency, Atuejide said: “My administration will not focus only on the interest of any person, tribe, religion, ethnic group, political group, campaign funding entities, businesses.
“Every person’s interest will be ably and properly represented, and each side will get that which is best suited for their circumstances in relation to the general circumstances of our dear country.
“I guarantee us equality on the negotiation table. No side is superior to any other side. We will all be heard and we will together find solutions for all our problems.
“Given the opportunity, I will take us away from the evil clutches of these leaders and deliver us into the hands of better people.”
