EXPOSED: President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has reportedly replaced Prof. A. A. Zuru with Prof. Mustapha Aliyu, the elder brother of the Sokoto State Governor, who shares the same father and mother with him, as @inecnigeria's National Commissioner representing the North-West.

The opposition must challenge this appointment and demand transparency and accountability.

@SaharaReporters Minimise noise and act decisively so that we can all be alive and have a country

@SaharaReporters Absence of visionary leaders, coherent vision and values define who we are, what we do and present as well as how the world perceive us

While one is excited with DG NOA on approaching the value system inform of a social contract between the country and citizens expressed as a charter, this charter must be seen to go through a public discourse, well debated and negotiated. It's must not be a top down thing.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

Corruption, bad leadership, lack of patriotism, injustice, insecurity, nepotism etc all thrive because of absence of a shared value system. A country must be responsible to its citizens first as incentive to make citizens fully committed to its country as patriots.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

Value System approaching it as a social contract between the country and the citizens is the way to go. If the value system charter is passed in to law, it will outlive any government and will remain the greatest achievement of Mr President.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

I listened to the current DG of NOA ( Mallam Lanre Issa) on one and one media chart with Cril Stober on citizens reorientation yesterday. For once, I have been convinced deeply, the DG and the agency is on top to fix our problem of value system much better than in the past.

There is a huge economic and social cost to cancelation of policies.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

Public policies are designed for a positive change or impact premised on certain assumptions. Outright reversal of policy such as lifting forex restriction on 43 items may not be the best thing to do but review of the assumptions and making adjustments.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

@Imranmuhdz @woye1 It's always good to model impact of any policy change and put measures in place to manage possible chain reactions such as resistance, blackmails, high demand of cements leading to scarcity and high price etc

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

Cutting avoidable wastes such as unnecessary government appointments, travels, procurement of goods and services, poor articulation of policies, unexemplenary leadership etc may all impart on public confidence about how serious a government may be.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

There is a positive correlation between political patronage and cost of governance. High cost of governance erodes value for money for social services and undermines attainment of other government key priorities.

Greatness is achieved by great men whose talents are extraordinary. God, what have we done wrong that getting it right becomes elusive each time we have heightened our hope???

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

It is a missed opportunity for any govt or country with human resources in abundance incountry & abroad who can easily change its fortune but choose to do otherwise.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

Nigerians love to see a great nation and have the elasticity to make sacrifices. They however, detaste leadership not also willing to do same by example.

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

The leadership the country desires is that of visionary with capacity to bring down financial waste in public sector to the bearest minimim, result or impact driven, leads by example, ensures equal justice and opportunity for all citizens

[Mohammed Kudu Bawa @bawamohammed]

The leadership I think the country desires is that which has capacity to harness the best hands, optimizes the independence and collaborative work of 3 arms and 3 tiers of govt and empowers CSOs as the demand organ to hold public institutions accountable.
