No one who lived on this Earth was ever always right. None! And it is not possible for anyone to always be right, lest he or she becomes god. No one is sufficiently equipped with such infallibility. But the way societies have progressed is by witnessing the expression and execution of diverse opinions. Both the good, the bad and the neither here nor there. Where the plurality of opinions is suffocated, creativity and innovation is also stifled.
Social interventions both from government and good spirited individuals in Cross River State and even elsewhere in the country, have failed to yield desirable results over several decades, not just because the people in government are not doing enough, there are twin obstacles which include the misapplication of these intervention benefits by the receivers and the theft and cronyism that characterizes the processes.
