The sad fact is that our past political leaders have failed to engender true peace and unity in Nigeria. Our past national leaders, both politicians and military rulers, could not harness our abundant natural resources such as limestone, tin-ore, bauxite, crude oil, and others, to leapfrog Nigeria to the acme of economic and technological advancement. A national leader destitute of leadership qualities, moral probity, political ideologies, and vision cannot put the country on the path of national development. These politicians do not possess leadership qualities, political ideologies, moral probity, empathy, and forbearance. And when elections are free and fair, political leaders who have moral scruples, leadership qualities, political ideologies, and vision will emerge in Nigeria.
