“Our Nation, Our Democracy Is In Great Danger”: Again, Ex-Kaduna Gov El-Rufai Raises AlarmSource: TwitterNiger Delta’s Role in National UnityOur nation and democracy are at risk, facing serious challenges. The Niger Delta has served as the glue holding Nigeria together,.It is essential for all citizens committed to the countrys progress to unite and push for strong leadership,” El-Rufai stated. Documenting Leadership LegaciesI have been working on a project to write about the legacies of our six living former presidents. Nigeria is fortunate to have them still alive and active, yet we are not utilizing their wealth of experience. This book, set to be published next year, will involve in-depth research and candid interviews with these leaders to explore both their successes and challenges,” he said.Nobody credits Babangida for the emergence of Nigerias three largest banks today. He was responsible for their establishment, yet people only remember his mistakes, El-Rufai explained.

Perhaps because we do not document history well, people tend to forget contributions and focus only on failures.
