Scrutinise Presidential Candidates To End Current Sufferings, Onitiri Tasks Parties

POLITICAL parties have been urged to scrutinise their candidates in order to present a credible, highly educated and intelligent person with the fear of God to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

A socio- political activist, Chief Adesunbo Onitiri, who gave the advise in a statement, yesterday, in Lagos, cautioned that in choosing new leaders, every patriotic Nigerian should ensure the people to voted for, especially for the president, must be a highly cerebral, well educated, selfless and forthright person.

“A new president must be a servant leader that has the spiritual acumen to unite the country. Not a selfish leader that could easily be influenced by the spoils of office. Never again will Nigerians tolerate an old, sick or unhealthy, corrupt, indolent, religious fundamentalist as president.

“We also urge all Nigerians to vote wisely, as this suffering and abject poverty must end. Our economy is at the lowest ebb. There is serious insecurity in the country. We need a patriot, young, highly educated, healthy, internationally connected president who has the capability and ability to govern. He must be honest, transparent, credible, and diligent with the quality of a world- class president and not a moneybag.
