A Professor of International Relations and Strategic Studies at the University of Lagos, UNILAG, David Aworawo, says Nigeria no longer has the charisma and capacity it had in the early 2000’s.

Aworawo made this statement on Monday while featuring in an interview on Arise Television’s ‘Morning Show’.

He said there are many many things Nigeria did not do right on the Economic Community of West African States, ECOWAS front.

The university don expressed shock at how Nigeria threatened Niger Republic with military action over a coup that was very successful.

“We don’t have anything close to what we did in the early 2000’s with Obasanjo at the helm.

“The Tinubu administration must seek Nigerians with the capacity to move Nigeria forward on the global stage.

“We need to get what we need to do very clear and of course, we need to have the will to follow it up. We can only be optimistic.

“We say these things to galvanize those who are in power now to be able to see and know what to do. I don’t think that we don’t have the people that will be able to do it,” he said.

The institution explained that the admission was granted in recognition of his vast experience in governance, economics and public service.

DAILY POST reports that the Northwest University, which was established in 2012, is one of two universities owned by the Kano State Government.
