 The quality of people taking up public offices in Nigeria have been very disappointing— prof. Pat. Utomi


Renowned political economist and founder of the Centre for Values in Leadership (CVL), Prof. Pat Utomi, has expressed deep concern over the quality of leadership in Nigeria, saying the country has suffered painful disappointments from many individuals entrusted with public office.


In an interview with Arise TV at his 70th birthday media chat, Utomi lamented that self-interest has increasingly overtaken genuine concern for the people, noting that this trend has undermined the true purpose of public service.


 According to him, public office should be anchored on sacrifice and a commitment to the collective good, not personal enrichment or ego.


“The ultimate reason for public life should be giving yourself for the common good of all,” Utomi said, stressing that leadership separated from values inevitably fails society.


The CVL founder emphasized the need for values-driven leadership, accountability, and a renewed moral compass in governance, arguing that Nigeria’s development challenges are as ethical as they are structural.
