[Shola Sholaz]

HAVING taken a cursory assessment of Nigeria as it celebrates the 53rd Independence anniversary,  former Vice President Atiku Abubakar yesterday gave a verdict that Nigerians have lost faith in their government because of what he termed this lack of vision on the part of the government in the management of the nation's political, economic and social affairs.
.
Atiku who also said that the nation's  economy during President Goodluck has weakened in the past few years with crippling unemployment, especially among our youth, stressed that Nigeria has become unable to deliver the goods and services to give the people of Nigeria a decent standard of living and dignity, adding that as a nation so blessed with all available resources, has no reason to fail.
.
In a statement from his Media office yesterday, the former Presidential Aspirant on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP said,  "grand intentions without vision meant nothing. Leaders must work with greater zeal and focus if democracy is expected to produce the envisaged impact on the lives of the people.
.
"Nigerians have lost faith in their government because of this lack of vision in the management of the nation's political, economic and social affairs. "
