From Charity Nwakaudu, Abuja
The African Democratic Congress (ADC) Presidential Candidate, Dumebi Kachikwu, said Nigerians need to start focusing more on solutions to the crises experienced in the nation.
The presidential candidate made this statement while speaking at the ongoing Annual General Meeting of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
The conference, themed “BOLD Transitions” is scheduled to hold between August 19 to 26, 2022.
The strong advocate of education and it’s significance, lamented over the effect of insecurity in that sector, due to the inefficiency of the President Buhari-led administration
Kachikwu stressed that the security infrastructure is being overwhelmed and underfunded, leading lost of many lives in the country.
He further noted that the country has been ruled by people who do not have anything to offer.
He said, “It is very easy to sit in this environment and not understand the true situation of Nigeria and not understand the reality of who we are.
“I love the law because the law interrogates and that’s why we are here, to interrogate what we hear, the issues, the facts.
“We can hear all the problems today and we all know the problems, my barber knows the problems, my mechanic knows the problem, but what are the solutions?
If we stay here for the next 5 hours, you will not hear solutions from this place, people can’t give what they don’t have.
“We agree we’re in a mess. We’re in a mess because we had people who cant give what they don’t have for too long, it cannot continue,” he added.
Kachikwu, therefore refered to Tinubu as great grandfather, Atiku – grandfather and Peter Obi – father.
He further said that if the panel session on Democratic Transitions in 21st Century Nigeria went on for another 5hrs the other candidates would not be able to proffer any solutions to the issues plaguing the nation saying they can’t give what they don’t have.
He bemoaned the fact that schools in Abuja had been shut down over security issues even though the Nigerian President lives in Abuja. He wondered what part of Nigeria could then be considered safe.
