Former governor of Abia State, Senator Theodore Orji has made a shocking revelation.
He said; “The re-cycling of expired politicians and the refusal of sit-tight politicians to vacate the political space for the up and coming ones are the reasons Nigeria is not making much progress in governance.”
“My decision to quit elective position come 2023 is irrevocable. My decision to bow out at the completion of my second tenure at the Senate is to allow the young generation prove their mettle.”
“There is no way the Not Too Young to Run Act signed into law in 2018 will be effectively implemented without the cooperation of the old politicians.”
“The Not Too Young to Run Act will remain a paper tiger until the old politicians are willing to vacate the political space.”
“Dominating the political space till eternity is inimical to raising new crop of political leaders.”
