Is Nigerian Politics Becoming a Family Inheritance? 🤔🇳🇬

David Umahi’s 28-year-old son, Osborn Nweze Umahi, has emerged as chairman of Ohaozara Local Government Area.
But this raises a bigger question: Is political power in Nigeria gradually becoming a family affair?
This is not about saying Osborn is incapable of leading. It is about asking whether ordinary Nigerians without powerful political connections have a fair chance to rise.
When will Nigerian politics be judged more by competence, character and experience than by family name and political connections?
What do you think? Is this normal democracy—or the rise of political dynasties? 🤔
