When I did a post on the 14 million delegates at the ongoing National
Confab are to be paid, many argued that it was good compensation for
their time.
However with different photos emerging daily of delegates sleeping their
way to their 12 million salary less than a week after it fully begun,
one cannot help but wonder how the next two months will be, and If the
conference idea is a wise one after all.
What I find very interesting more than anything else is why a large
number of the delegates are 60 years and above, when the conference is
said to aim at 'charting a new path of socio-economic and political development for the nation, and creating a better future.'
Are younger Nigerians who are future leaders not better positioned and
qualified to attend this conference? Won't they be better off than our
sleeping delegates? Why are youths the minority at this conference?
I keep saying and will continue to reiterate it, one of the biggest
canker worms eating deep into the Nigerian nation is 'Misplaced
Priorities'.
I can't...with these delegates...Seriously SMH.
