FORMER Minister of
Information, Prof. Jerry Gana, has blamed Nigeria’s underdevelopment and
economic woes on entrusting mediocres with its leadership.
Speaking at Uzere, Isoko South Local Government Area, Delta State at the
Second Session of the Sixth Synod of the Oleh Diocese of the Anglican
Communion at the weekend, Gana said that “The problem with the Federal
Republic of Nigeria is that Nigeria produces mediocre leaders.
“Elections are supposed to be a process of electing good leaders who
will give good governance and governance will give good development.
Unfortunately, in Nigeria, we are electing wrong leaders, so we have
wrong policies and wrong development.”
Gana, who presented a lecture entitled “The Role Of The Church In
Building A Good Society In Nigeria”, charged the church to raise leaders
who are courageous, competent, disciplined, focused and strategic in
thinking.
“In view of the critical importance of leadership in the development
process, raising good leaders is an extremely important role for the
Church. No other institution is better placed than the Church in
promoting such core values such as truth, justice, righteousness,
honesty, integrity, love, kindness, peace, compassion and respect for
human dignity.”
He said the Church, apart from ensuring good governance, must take its
social responsibility of fighting corruption seriously, adding; “we must
seek to sanitize society against corruption and seek to expose the
darkness of evil forces in society.”
While lamenting that Nigerians were “so severely poor in a potentially
rich and wealthy nation,” he said: “The sights, sounds and realities of
human deprivation are so pervasive throughout our land that we cannot
ignore this social tragedy of poverty.
“Poverty is a social evil that must be abolished or eradicated, but
certainly not tolerated. Through sustained programmes of wealth creation
and fair distribution, the current high levels of poverty can be
reduced. We must seek to remove obstacles to greater production of goods
and services.
“Wealth creation strategies must always be backed-up by fair
distribution mechanism; otherwise, the severe greed for accumulation in
our society could even intensify poverty in the midst of prosperity.”
