Nigerians Are Part Of Nigeria’s Problem – Yul Edochie

Yul EdochienewNollywood actor, Yul Edochie has come out to say he used to think our leaders were the problem in Nigeria until he joined politics.

He said even if it is true that our politicians have let us down, it is up to us, the people, to fix it.

He then urged Nigerians to try to run for office.

His words, “I always thought our problem was our leaders till I joined politics and realized the people are also a big part of the problem. If you run for office and you don’t have money to share, even your village people will leave you and support a well known kidnapper who is sharing money.”

“Yes our leaders have failed us for so long but running out of the country is not the best option. Who go fix am? Then we are treated as 3rd class citizens abroad. We need all hands on deck, all voices. The fewer the opposition, the easier it is for the oppressor to carry on.”
