He recalled that many of those that initiated the journey of Nigeria into nationhood are no longer living.

The script developers of Nigeria’s national history have become paragraphs of Nigeria’s history book. The founding fathers are all gone. The remaining ones never failed to Nigerians that what is now obtainable was not what was bargained for.

Our conscious creation of the future must start with the education of those who will control our future through politics and governance. A novice must not ascend the dais of power. The consequences have been dire and will be dire. The nation will further be plunged into an orgy of violence and confusion, he warned.
