Leaders Must Not Make Lives Better For Only A Gang In Lagos – Makinde

Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has said that leaders at the national level must solve the problems of Nigerians across the country and not just make lives better for only a gang in Lagos.

Makinde stated this during an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Tuesday.

He said, “We have to look at Nigerians. What do Nigerians want? Are they happy. Are we just playing stunt politics or are we just focusing on solving the problems facing Nigerians?

“Have we reduced hunger in the land? Are people hungry? What exactly should we be looking at in the future.

“Those are issues we have to address as leaders. Those are the things you need to look at. Politics, governance and all of these things don’t take care of themselves. Are you able to make the lives of our people better across the country not just for a section of the country; not just for, I am sorry to say, maybe a gang in Lagos.

“We want a situation where everybody in every corner in the country you must look at them once you at the national level.”

Makinde also said that he has the capacity to lead Nigeria.

He said, “I don’t have any doubt that I have the capacity to occupy the highest office in this land and I have what it takes.”
