Nigerian entrepreneur, investor and philanthropist, Tony Elumelu, has expressed concern over the present state of the nation.
According to the astute businessman, Nigerians need to be more vocal about the 2023 presidential election, urging them to demand and advocate for leaders that will deliver.
Elumelu, who is the Chairman of Heirs Holdings, United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc. and Transcorp Nigeria Plc., expressed his concern via his Twitter page.
He wrote; “This morning, I am listening to my colleagues at the office bemoan the very pressing issues that they face everyday in this country, and how things have been getting worse and worse – no electricity for 5 days, hikes in the price of diesel, frightening food inflation, etc.
“Meanwhile, oil producing countries are smiling as their foreign reserves rising. What is Nigeria’s problem? We need to hold our leaders more accountable!
“Elections are coming – security and resources need to be everyone’s agenda – let’s be vocal for our nation’s priority.
“Evil prevails when good people are silent. We need to be vocal about 2023. Let’s focus on Nigeria. Demand and advocate for leaders that deliver.
“In 2023, Nigeria must be on a strong trajectory for progress and development.”
