"The aim of a good government is the welfare of the entire people under its jurisdiction. In pursuance of this aim, it is impossible for a government to please everyone. As long, however, as the government is satisfied that any given policy, measure, programme, or legislation, will rebound to the greatest number of the citizens under its charge, it should be inflexible in its path."
-Chief Obafemi Awolowo, November 3, 1959
Well said by the late sage. Thank you Onigegewura
ReplyDeleteWell said by the great nationalist. This set of Nationalist were thinking of a greater Nigeria. Not the set after them. Like my people will say "Wonbiliki, wonbia" Onigege, hope I got that Yoruba slang. Nice quote for the end of month. Will borrow and share on my WhatsApp page
ReplyDeleteThe late sage must be emulated by the crops of the present politicians. Kudos
ReplyDeleteThis refers to an Utilitarian system of government which this country is deficient in, albeit the present crops of politicians. God help us.
