Bolawole said that the 52-year-old Marwa, also a former governor of Borno state, would contest on the platform of the PDP.

Admin's commentary:

Haven't we had enough military leadership woes in Nigeria?

I think it's time we take governance in Nigeria in a different direction. The problem, as I see it, with the military being politicians, is that they often move in the direction of totalitarianism, giving orders without adequate discussion, and expecting full compliance without question.

We need a better system in Nigeria where the people's voice actually counts for something.

In my opinion, the military should do what they do best, protect Nigeria. Let's leave presidential aspirations to real politicians.
