Nigerian media personality, Ebuka, took to Twitter to share an interesting conversation he had with a student who wants to be a dictator.
According to Ebuka, the student who wants to be a dictator made a case for it, stating that only brute force can stop Nigerians from being corrupt and make them actually obey rules and authority. His tweets reads;
Highlight of my week has to be speaking to teenage students about choosing a career path, and a student standing up to say he wants to be a dictator!!!
I’d simply asked; “How many here want a career that their parents don’t support?” Some students stood up to say they wanted to be rappers, footballers, TV producers, etc… Then I heard “Dictator”. I wasn’t ready…
He did make a case for it, talking about how only brute force can stop Nigerians from being corrupt and make them actually obey rules and authority. Said politicians switching parties will never help.
It may have been a weird/funny moment but it was quite instructive to me about how younger Nigerians really perceive governance in their country.
Everyone is watching…
