Olufemi Atoyebi, IbadanThe United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. Stuart Symington, has called on Nigerians to take away their focus from what will happen in 2019 and rather concentrate on how to make the country better before the next general elections. He said, “Many Nigerians will spend much of this year thinking about what will happen in 2019. “In the first year of my stay in Nigeria, I travelled to all the 36 states of the country. In a democracy, the people are the ship, the pilot is only there for a time but the ship remains. The most important thing is not what Nigerians will do in 2019 but what they will do now because they are the ship.
