It is time power and our policies shift hands to fresher minds, to stronger fortes, to people that are ready to move with the momentum of time , tide and changes .

Biologically too, time will catch up with you because you are growing old in that position.
"Look at advanced countries of the world, and take a close look at people that have moved forward, these are people who have put things in place so that changes will be constant. Refreshment of minds, ideas, psychology, idiosyncrasies will be constant except for Nigeria.
"The same circle of people that governed us 20 years ago are the same people who are still ruling us, what are they still doing there? So many of them are in their 80s, grandfathers by all rights! Are they not tired? Suffering and smiling has become our motto, our slogan ", Iyke lamented.
