-The leadership question in Nigeria has, since the nation’s independence in 1960, been the subject of study and commentary by different shades of researchers, analysts and public affairs commentators.
The consensus has been that over the years, Nigeria has not been blessed with a consummate leadership with the capacity to properly harness and effectively deploy its abundant resources to achieve the desired national growth for the socio-economic well-being of the citizens.
In fact, it is the consensus of most students of Nigeria’s history that the comparatively stunted growth of the country can rightly be blamed on the profligacy of past leaderships, their lack of political will to save for the rainy day in the era of abundant oil wealth and the absence of a patriotic vision to diversify the economy and make wise investments.
