Nigeria faces a complex web of challenges including hunger, deprivation, and conflict, all of which are interconnected and exacerbate one another. This nexus presents a significant obstacle to the country’s development and stability.
Northern Nigeria’s response to the food crisis has been to play the ostrich and effectively act the role of the Dog in this time of famine. This, it is doing by stylishly and selfishly ethnicising the food crisis situation. The North’s stand is always predictably selfish, as if it is destined to go the way of the self, as against the collective.
There is certainly a seeming lack of policy coordination in reform implementation (both vertically-between FG and other tiers, and horizontally- within the FG itself)- which is neither new nor surprising.

According to him, “It is not only disheartening and disenchanting but also heartbreaking that yesterday when the Naira culminated to ₦1,500 to the dollar, instead of us to coagulate into a single force and salvage our nation economy, sadly, some clowns are celebrating on Twitter of an impending implosion of the Nigerian economy.” Look, if any clown here badly needs help recognising what he truly is, it is Shettima himself.
It was William Shakespeare, the iconoclastic poet, playwright, actor and perhaps, the greatest writer in English language, who in his 1602 writing in the play Twelfth Night, noted that “some people are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them”. Four hundred and twenty two (422) years after Shakespeare uttered that phrase, every line of the literary quotation is as relevant today as it was then.
Since their appointments by the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, some ministers have been very popular as a result of their charisma, innovative ideas, aggressive pursuit of excellence, and programs that impact the lives of the people.
