​‘Culture Will Subdue the Best of Us’ — Dr. Charles Awuzie Exposes How Internal Party Corruption Sabotaged Nigeria’s Best Candidate

​In a raw and provocative statement, Dr. Charles Awuzie reveals the systemic sabotage within Nigerian political parties, where leaders allegedly embezzled funds meant for the "best candidate in history." He argues that Nigeria's failure isn't just a leadership issue but a deep-seated Cultural and Mental problem that would frustrate even the most honest leader.

Dr Charles Awuize 

​'I raised money for a certain political party. They had the BEST CANDIDATE ever in Nigerian history. Guess what? The party leaders stole the money and bought houses and cars. They frustrated that good man’s efforts. I remember how the good man used to say 'if I am not corrupt as President, my government will not be corrupt too'. But the party showed that CULTURE WILL SUBDUE even the best of us. Culture will make the BEST OF US look like the REST OF US.

​This is why I’m fixing the CULTURE FIRST.

​That good man remains one of the best humans but he’s surrounded by wolves in sheep’s clothing. One MAN can not change Nigeria - infrastructure is not change. Change is FUNDAMENTALLY CULTURAL AND MENTAL.

​Guess who will fight such fundamental change? Nigerians. Because that level of change touches ALL OF US.

​If you like, don’t speak the truth to yourself that we all are such a messy population culturally. If you like put your hope in ONE MAN. In Nigeria, even Jesus will not save Nigeria until we become tired of the culture that seeks FAVOUR from highly placed relatives and friends. That’s the root of corruption.

​For me: I’m here to tell you the uncomfortable truth. Call me names - you too are probably corrupt and more evil than the people you think are our problem. You accuse people on social media without evidence and you think you are better? You are corrupt too.' — Dr. Charles Awuzie
