Part of what it means to be a human being is the capacity to hold personal views which should however best be anchored on intelligent analysis of facts with a genuine effort to minimise subjectivity. Easier said than done, one may say, but a serious effort in that direction counts.
It is not rocket science. When a man was so desperate to become president that he threatened Armageddon if he did not have his way, yet took half a year to set up shop (when the rein of power was graciously handed over to him) and even then with individuals -with due respect- who hardly inspired any hope for greater prospects for Nigeria; was handed over an economy that was in the ascendancy according to credible international sources, but is now on the fast lane to desolation and ruin; whose so-called war against corruption is etched in infamy as being merely political, virtually exclusively targeting only members of one political party; cannot ensure that an election even in any one state only can be conducted without portentous controversy; whose beloved wife even publicly questions whether he's in charge of his administration; etc, etc; what more evidence do you need, what more time does anyone want to say there is clear lack of capacity to lead Nigeria of today?
A dancer's very first step can tell you how well he'll perform his task.
Every Nigerian has a stake in this country.
Let no one think he can take all of us for a ride!
