TAKE YOUR INAUGURAL SPEECH, MANIFESTO AND START AFRESH – CARDINAL OKOGIE URGES BUHARI

Anthony Cardinal Olubunmi Okogie, the Archbishop Emeritus of the Catholic Archdiocese of Lagos has urged the leader of the country to start afresh in his leadership of the nation. The Archbishop Emeritus speaking on his 80th birthday celebration which took place at the Holy Cross Cathedral, Lagos, Okojie said he should not take the Goodwill of Nigerians for granted. Cardinal Okojie said, “If President Buhari wants to make a quick turn back, he should take his inaugural speech and the All Progressive Congress, APC, manifesto, study them and then start afresh. “That is my advice,” he stated, adding that the Nigeria is in need of leaders who would unite and not divide the country.”

Continuing, he also said that Nigeria is in need of self- sacrificing leaders who would pay attention to the needs of the people. He said, “At this stage of my life, I can only advise and admonish our policy makers, especially in the education sector, that are now battling with the lives of innocent children, to allow education to flourish; for if education does not flourish, our country cannot flourish.

“You have already seen it in some parts of the country. We have seen it in some of our children’s behaviours,” Okojie added.
