The high cost of bad governance can’t be overemphasized in any clime. After just coming off the plane of the global pandemic that plunged the world into a melancholic daze. With the world record that stands at about 430 million cases that resulted in about 6.5 million deaths. The tide needs to flip over and requires a new wind of change.

The high cost of bad governance spans many sectors. Apart from the fact that it leaves generations to come in penury, it equally deprives them of valuables like quality education

Ask most Nigerians that migrate abroad, most of them have to go back to school to retrain in order to get good jobs. Basic healthcare, and good infrastructure. Another most salient point is the human capital development and loss of lives.

A shining example of the latter was what lead to the ENDSARS protest in the first place and we all know what happened on the 20th of October 2020 when some unscrupulous and unknown soldiers swept on these innocent Nigerian youths and shot at them even why reciting the National anthems.

People spend endless hours in traffic, which leads to frequent breakdowns of such vehicles and cutting short of lives of these people. Apart from wasting man-hours on the road, the high cost of medical bills that they incur are beyond description.

To change the narrative, we can replace bad Governance with good governance which is not rocket science. So it just starts by electing good and right candidates.

To elect a good candidate should start with accepting someone who has had extensive years of volunteering positions as well as their professional experience.

The same should be applicable in Nigeria. Having a glowing professional experience is not enough. What have you done for your community for free should equally count as well?

So let’s tell it not in Garth and proclaim it not on the street of Askalon that the high cost of bad Governance is huge and this needs to change now.
