Watching how the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega, was relating with his colleagues, all professors and heads of universities in the country, at the presidential election collation centre, is a lesson in civility for us all to imbibe.
You could see the show of respect from these distinguished academia to their colleague, Prof. Jega in their presentation of the collated presidential election results, notwithstanding that they are equal in the academics.
This culture of respect exhibited by these professors is a challenge to our youths to emulate. Respect your elders and those in authority with civility. But the challenge to the system now is that; how will a successor in office to Jega, who is not an academia draw from this poll of academia? This is a food for thought.
Prof. Jega, well done for this initiative in election process management.
