Chief Chuks Muoma, a distinguished elder statesman and Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), has acknowledged that inadequate leadership is a major cause of the country’s economic problems in a recent SUN report. In his capacity as the Igbo Lawyers Association (ILA) Chairman, he has attacked powerful individuals, characterizing them as politically incompetent opportunists who have not been able to come up with workable strategies for protecting and developing the nation and its citizens.

Regarding the present administration’s plea for patience while its policies stabilize, Chief Muoma questions the capabilities and intentions of the current president. He highlights the president’s emphasis on his role in building Lagos and questions whether this qualifies him, or anyone else, to effectively govern a diverse and complex nation like Nigeria. Chief Muoma expresses skepticism about leadership based solely on personal ambition and a sense of entitlement, rather than genuine capability and commitment to national development. He condemns the prevailing notion of leadership succession as a mere “my turn” mentality, which he views as detrimental to the country’s political integrity.
According to Chief Chuks Muoma: “I heard him saying he built Lagos. Would that have qualified him or any one for that matter, to boast of being capable of fixing a large country like Nigeria? Lagos is just one state out of the 36 we have at the moment. To me, he came on a personal ambition. “Emilokan, Emilokan.” Which country on earth is run that way, my turn? The truth has to be said.” CONTINUE FULL READING>>>>>
