He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, the country, because of the elections, is now dangerously divided along ethnic and religious lines and it has put the integrity of public institutions in question.
Sanusi added that Nigerians are no longer unshaken with their trust in policies, policing, judiciary and the election umpires.
His words, “The people now have suspicions about policies, policing, judiciary and the election umpire.”
“In October 2022, speaking at the Kaduna Investment Forum, I told Nigerians that if anyone told them that dealing with Nigeria post-2023 would be easy, they should not vote for that person. I meant it.”
“I don’t think Nigeria has been in a place as difficult as this since the civil war. We have a challenge of nation building.”
“We have a country that has been divided dangerously along ethnic and religious lines.”
“We have an economy that is in the doldrums, and unfortunately, we seem to be having a dearth of leadership.”
“No process is perfect. We have seen so in the United Kingdom and the United States. At the very least, the people should know who they are voting for. I think we need to begin to look at the Electoral Act, 2022 much more earlier than elections. We need to have a system where one cannot just go to participate in party primaries without being exposed to public scrutiny. This is what happens everywhere. People need to know what they are voting for. In other climes, they are compelled by law to participate in public debates to discuss issues of policy.”
“This is the only country I know where we elect a President first before knowing if he knows what he is doing or whether he understands what the job is.”
