Nigerian lawyer Dele Farotimi has criticized the Nigerian government over its poor handling of the country and the failure of leaders to care for the people.
Naija News reports that the human rights activist argued that Nigeria’s situation is worse than the description of a zoo previously used by the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu.
Farotimi expressed his dissatisfaction with the country’s leadership in a post shared on his 𝕏 account.
The activist questioned the level of attention given to the welfare of Nigerians, arguing that those in positions of authority had failed to show enough concern for the living conditions and well-being of the people they govern.
He used the management of a zoological facility to explain his position, saying that countries where the rule of law is respected would not allow a zoo to operate carelessly without taking action against those responsible.
According to Farotimi: “Mazi Nnamdi Kanu was wrong, Nigeria is NOT a zoo. There’s no country ruled by law, anywhere in the world, where a zoo would be ran with careless regard for the welfare of the animals, as Nigeria is ran, without having its license revoked, its management prosecuted, and the animals rehoused.”
