A front line Igbo ideologist and 2023 presidential election aspirant, Chief. CBN, Onwuasoanya Ezendigbo has reacted to a trending video depicting the best template to serve as a good leader of any nation.
In a viral video titled, ” How Two Poorest Presidents In The World Made Their Country Rich By Good Governance And Transparency”, which highlighted the performances of Burkina-Faso Head of States, Ibrahim Traore and Jose Mujica, the former president of Uruguay between 2010-2015, who donated 90 Per cent of his monthly salary, equivalent to $12,500 to charity, Ezendigbo asserted that If Ibrahim Traore could succeed on his agric revolution, it’ll be a disgrace to Nigeria in Africa, I don’t understand what stops political office holders from making tractors available in all local government areas.
The presidential aspirant in the last general elections, added: “with what Traore is trying to do in Burkina-Faso, I am very sure they can feed the whole Africa because his regime has snubbed buying SUV vehicles unlike our country where vehicles are gifted to local government chairmen, state Executives, Assemblies and the likes.”
Burkina Faso’s 36-year-old military head of state, captain Ibrahim Traore handed over 400 tractors, 239 motorcycles, and 710 motor pumps to agricultural investors to boost production. The government also provided 714 motorcycles for farm agents.
Additionally, the government will support producers with 10,000 tonnes of fish food, 68,964 tonnes of fertilizer, 10,000 liters of phytosanitary products, 18,000 tonnes of vegetable seeds, 2,300 tonnes of feed seeds, and 10,000 tonnes of concentrated foods.
He said, “I could recall when we were in primary school, we used to cultivate land for yam produce, and shares after harvested to children, we were thought how to make brooms, anyone who wishes to fact check can go on a visit across local government of many states in Nigeria today, you barely find a tractor and people are bemoaning of hunger. Today, the prices of goods in the market are unbearable, inflation keeps rising, that’s why some Nigerians are scattered all over the world, because not everyone can endure the ongoing hardship.”
