In the realm of budget allocations, the Northern region of Nigeria, with its vast population and expansive landmass, has consistently found itself at a disadvantage. The 2024 budget allocation is no exception, as the region has once again been overlooked and marginalized. Surprisingly, the elected representatives from the North, who are supposed to advocate for the good of the region, have remained silent, succumbing to their own insatiable greed and fear.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not seriously planning to return to power. It is more focused on the inordinate ambitions of its stakeholders and how much money they can make from each. If Nigeria is on the minds of some of its members, it is regarding what can be made out of it with the party as the vessel. Even at that, they are not ready or desirous of reinventing, re-positioning, and strengthening the vessel. It is not taking the path to recovering its influence in national politics.
