Bishop of Sokoto Diocese, Bishop Mathew Hassan Kukah Tuesday said everybody in Nigeria is running a parallel government due to the inability of leaders to provide them with their basic needs.
Speaking with news men in Sokoto on the occasion of his 40th anniversary of ordination as a priest and four years as a Bishop, he said when government could not provide its citizens their needs, they must opt for other alternative platform.
The Bishop said there were few places in Nigeria were drinking water provided by the government and fewer people have their children in public schools.
He added that many people now have their own sources of electricity.
“So parallel government means exploitation, the absence of government and the inability to render services. that is why when they say Shiites are running a parallel government I said everybody in Nigeria is running a parallel government because there are no roads to many communities,” he stated.
He added: “No community with good roads, water and electricity in Nigeria without having a big person speak on their behalf. And this is why we can’t fight corruption in Nigeria.”
