Nigeria's political landscape is increasingly fragmented, with citizens and leaders seemingly living in different realities. Lucky Obi, a concerned citizen, expressed his dismay at the state of affairs under President Tinubu's leadership, stating "Tinubu and his APC members are in a different Nigeria with the citizens... Nigeria as a united country is gone".
This sentiment comes as Senate President Akpabio and Governor Wike are set to receive the NEAPS award for their achievements in outstanding reform initiative, transparency, and open governance. The move has sparked outrage, with many questioning the criteria for the award and the sincerity of the recognition.
The controversy highlights the deepening political divide in Nigeria, where citizens feel disconnected from the political elite and question their leaders' commitment to transparency and good governance. As the country grapples with numerous challenges, the growing chasm between citizens and leaders threatens to undermine Nigeria's progress and stability.
