The few times President Buhari sat down for interviews since 2015, he often makes a case against the ELITES as the root cause of Nigeria’s problem. This is erroneous and potentially dangerous. I will elucidate. THREAD
Buhari believes the problem of Nigeria at the moment is the elites which is parochial. Elites is defined as "small group of powerful people who hold a disproportionate amount of wealth, privilege, political power, or skill in a society." He equates elites to the political class.
He doesn’t know that elites includes the rich people who don’t have anything to do with politics, the skilled professionals who make money in tens of millions, the millennials running their startups who haven’t even voted before or have any interest in politics.
