We need to fix leadership before we fix the constitution. Right now, the constitution debate is a distraction.
Security operatives under the President’s command can swiftly track and arrest someone accused of creating a fake audio recording of the President, yet students and teachers abducted in Oyo State remain in captivity after more than 27 days.
That is not a constitutional problem. It is a leadership problem.
Yes, the constitution needs serious reforms. But a good constitution in the hands of bad leaders will still produce bad outcomes.
Let’s fix leadership first. Then we can have a serious conversation about fixing the constitution.
