 Now, devolution of powers and the press freedom have been named amongst other things as strategies to use in fixing the legitimation crisis in Nigeria. A professor of the Department of Sociology at the University of Lagos at Dubai on Inalua who studied history in his valedictory lecture to mark his exit from the school also pointed out that Nigeria as a rich country should have no business with poverty. Professor Africa correspondent at the Bank of the Nui has more on this. Delivering his lecture titled Continuities on Legitimation Crisis and the Human Condition Professor Nino Lawo noted that the crisis had its background in philosophy which compares the political systems to the reality of the citizens. When we talk about legitimation crisis, it's rooted philosophically. We try to juxtapose the nexus of the political state in relation to the citizenry and the amelioration of the human condition. The professor also added that the ASUS strike means that there is something very wrong with the political system. That we are here holding this occasion, this program, is symptomatic of legitimation crisis. We are as in the world that academics who embark on strike almost every six months or almost every year, there is something wrong with the system. During the course of the lecture, the professor said the youth are the future of the country. The older generations, they don't seem to have the answer for the real resolution of the problem. The younger folks like this, like what's the name of that guy, Professor Emeka, you know, Elime Lu, he would say, the future of Africa is in your hands, addressing the youth. I agree with him. The strike embarked upon by the academic staff union of universities was said to have had a great effect on students. Definitely, it has affected the university calendar and also the students because many of them were doing their projects before the strike started, but definitely I'm sure that the university will make up for that and will be able to adjust the university calendar accordingly. Traditional rulers present at the event described Professor Nino Lawu as a man of great character. Nino Lawu, the emeritus professor is a very good man, I've known him for over 40 years. The professor highlighted that the evolution of powers and press freedom are solutions to the legitimation crisis in Nigeria. Adi Banke O Junui, Prostitutu News. Hello, hope you enjoyed the news.
