Seasoned Nigerians have risen to
the challenge of inefficient Leadership problem plaguing the country.
Under the auspices of Anabel Leadership Academy, a two day Nigerian Leadership
summit has been fixed to tackle this moribund issue. Tagged " Let’s Focus
on Leadership”, it would come up on Tuesday,December 11 and Wednesday,December
12,2012 at the prestigious Oriental Hotel,Lekki, Lagos.
Information available to us revealed that Nigeria Leadership Summit is a Platform designed and managed by the Anabel Leadership Academy to provide the public with a broader view and understanding of the challenges of Leadership in Nigeria.
Also, the Initiative is designed to provide a platform for like minded individuals in Nigeria to share experiences, programs and ideas for the way forward and a way out of Nigeria’s Leadership crisis from a Corporate or Political stand point.
Findings revealed that The Nigeria Leadership Summit Group will work over the next few years to generate a network of Nigerians who have made a conscious decision to say No to the
inefficient and wasteful manner in which our resources are being managed. And as this network grows will ensure that their message is being heard by those in Leadership positions in Nigeria.
We scooped that the move was informed by The Leadership crisis in Nigeria which has extended to all forms of Life including the Educational Sectors, the Corporate Sectors and the Political Sectors. In this regard the entire Nation is in need of a well thought out and pragmatic approach to providing a solution.
According to the organisers "We all agree that there is a crisis in Leadership in Nigeria and there is a need to address it by like minded Individuals. We, as Nigerians, have been complaining for too long and this is now the time for ACTION. The challenges in Leadership spread across all levels of Nigerian Life, from the Political Leaders, to our Business Leaders right down to our Community Leaders. We are even having problems with Religious and Family Leadership now with many Families and Religious Organizations feeling the strain of a failed and unfocused head of Family or Leader. In our Nation almost all the problems and challenges with our society can be traced to poor Leadership, poor Policy Implementation or weak action when the situation or the solution called for decisive Action. In our Corporations, inept and corrupt leaders are killing the spirits and dreams of our creative people, forcing them into seclusion and denying the Corporation and the Nation the ideas and Solutions of our most innovative minds. This trend must STOP."
Furthermore, "The Anabel Leadership Academy has founded the Nigeria Leadership Summit in an effort to engage visionary Leaders and to support the process of building innovative Leaders for the transformation of Nigeria. It is our hope that our Leadership Summit “LETS FOCUS ON LEADERSHIP” will give those who attend a feeling of a renewed sense of purpose and give them a burning desire to change their lives, change their organizations and SUBSEQUENTLY change our Nation. We strongly believe that for any Organizations or Corporations to improve, they must focus on the Leadership skills of its people, and the same goes for our Nation. We can only change Nigeria if we change Nigerians, one Nigerian at a time. And that is the mission of the “The Nigeria Leadership Summit” and the Anabel Leadership Academy.
The Leadership Summit will work with identified Visionary Leaders across the board in different works of Life and give them an opportunity to define a more pragmatic approach to Leadership in Nigeria. It is our expectation that we will be able to grow into a Network of World Class Visionary Leaders in which the Nation’s Businesses, Political Institutions, Communities and Families can depend on for direction into the 21st Century. We will address the challenges faced by Leaders in Business, Entertainment, Politics, media and Education. And we will provide solutions that the Nigerian people can hold onto and possibly change the future of Nigeria forever."

The fact that the elder leaders are addressing the issues that hamper economic growth of Nigeria, it is a good sign to lead by venerability. I hope that the young leaders in the government and the civil ranks will also heed the challenges.
