“The contextual implications of the present government’s change mantra is intended to jumpstart a rebirth process with new thinking, driven by the recruitment of vital crop of men and women with new lens to ignite our strength in diversity and trigger new opportunities founded on national consciousness and ethical value. 

“Our national rebirth process must take deliberate steps to forge our strength in diversity and provide salient answers to our many inherent weaknesses and threats.”

The former chairman of the Akwa Ibom state Ethical and Attitudinal Reorientation Commission said the competence of the government would determine how the public perceives it.

“As a government, the public perception of its performance and action depends on the competencies and the ability of its agencies to galvanise public feedback loops, to collaborate and encourage honest behaviour of citizens and create a nexus between government and the governed in its public information and communication initiatives.

“Expectedly, democracy must bring about national development and general improvement in the standard of living of the people, devoid of threats to public safety and the state. It should be in accordance with the constitutional provision that says the security and welfare of the people shall be the primary purpose of government.”

He said some people are likely to perceive the current agenda of change as the same as the War Against Indiscipline championed by Buhari was he was a military head of state.

“I will not be surprised that some critical Nigerians will see the ensuing modification of the national psyche as a rejuvenation of the War Against Indiscipline (WAI) that was first marshalled by the same person many years ago. While that may hold to some extent, I will proffer that the latest development is even more far reaching in content, capacity and consequence. This is essentially based on the fact that whereas WAI was truncated by his removal from power, a national rebirth as I articulated cannot be easily truncated, being that once something or someone is reborn, the old is gone and the new has come and I know Nigerians will appreciate the new offerings on the table.”
