The founder of Afe Babalola University, Ado Ekiti, Aare Afe Babalola has said Nigeria’s 1999 constitution makes politics a lucrative business.
Babalola said this at the weekend in ABUAD farm in Ado-Ekiti during the grant award ceremony of N30 million and equipment to about 115 youths in the 2020 Youth Employment in Agri-business and Sustainable Agriculture (YEASA) in partnership with International Fund for Agricultural Development (IFAD).
The frontline lawyer and elder statesman said Nigeria needs a new constitution that will solve the imbalance, poverty and other problems the country is facing.
According to him, Nigerians do not want “transactional leaders anymore”.
“There is a very simple solution to that. We need a new constitution where the different nations can develop at their own rate,” he said.
“West was doing well under the old constitution, east was doing well under the old constitution, north was doing well under the old constitution.
“But the present constitution puts leadership in a position that politics becomes the only lucrative business in Nigeria.
“We don’t want transactional leaders anymore; we want transformational leaders, who will be able to transform this place. The solution is a new constitution – the constitution of the people.”
The senior advocate of Nigeria gave out N30 million grant in equipment and cash to 115 youths from Oyo and Ekiti States after weeks of training in various agricultural based businesses. He lamented the poverty level in the country and also noted that he would continue to do everything possible to end the menace.
