During the event, which focused on the theme “Dismantling the barriers: Creating a pathway for the emergence of effective leaders in Nigeria,” notable figures such as Mr. Olumide Akpata, former President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, and Mr. Tonye Cole, the APC governorship candidate in Rivers State, shared their insights.

The speakers underscored that poor leadership has become a formidable obstacle to Nigeria’s progress, akin to the “Wall of Jericho,” which must be overcome. Senator Abaribe urged collective efforts from all citizens to dismantle these barriers, drawing parallels to the fall of the Berlin Wall during the cold war era.
Mr. Funso Doherty emphasized that these barriers are both causes and effects of bad leadership, creating a self-reinforcing cycle. He warned that Nigeria is at a critical juncture and urged greater political engagement to ensure that credible candidates are chosen during elections.
Tonye Cole challenged young Nigerians to become active participants in politics, rejecting the notion that they should focus solely on business pursuits.
Babajide Obanikoro identified impunity and indiscipline as factors perpetuating corruption in the country.
Alhaji Kashim Ibrahim-Imam, President of KCOBA, highlighted education as a transformative force that can uplift individuals from humble backgrounds.
Dr. Yusuf Sununu, the Minister of State for Education, underscored the role of schools like Kings College in nurturing character and competence to contribute to Nigeria’s growth.
