Olumide Oworu says politics must serve people

Career politicians clinging to godfathers got called out as Nigeria's core political problem by a former Lagos assembly candidate.

Olumide Oworu redefines what politics should be

• Oworu argued service and systems matter, not enrichment.
• Educated, well-traveled people should be running things.
• His Clarity Zone podcast appearance laid this all out.
• Politics was never meant to be anyone's career path.

Godfatherism gets a direct callout

• Career politicians lack a plan B, per Oworu.
• Desperation for the office breeds godfather dependency every time.
• Value brought to governance barely registers for most.
• Capacity should replace connections as the real qualifier.
