Sen. Victor Umeh, former National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), says Nigeria only needs visionary leadership to get better.

Umeh said this while speaking to newsmen on Saturday in Awka, to marks Nigeria’s 62nd independence Day Anniversary.

He said that the major challenge hindering the development of the country was poor leadership.

“The only solution to Nigeria’s challenges is to enthrone visionary leadership.

“Nigeria is a peculiar country blessed with enormous human and natural resources capable of making Nigeria compete with other nations of the world.

“It needs visionary leaders who will utilise the resources to make the nation great, and also be committed to building a better future for the younger generation,” he said.

Umeh urged Nigerian to see the independence day anniversary as a wake up call to reflect and channel their strength on how to get Nigeria on the right direction.

“The 2023 general election is another opportunity to choose leaders who will prioritise the interest of the people.

“Nigerians should set aside religious and political affiliations as well as ethnicity and choose leaders based on credibility and pedigree,” Umeh said. (NAN)
