What Exactly Does Nigerian Politicians Do For The Masses? by tk003(m): 9:21pm On Apr 29
Sometimes I just sit and wonder what exactly is the use of our politicians because almost all of them operates far bellow average.

Someone will be a Governor for 8 years and no any meaningful development both in capital or human derived afterwards from his governance. What exactly did he do for those 8 years? Enriching himself? Some can't even pay full salary to workers for their 8 years of governance but their own salaries and exurbitant allowances will be paid to them in full. Some even alloted pensions for themselves at the end of their gross mismanagement and incompetent governance.

Talk of Rep. members, some of them have expensive cars bought with looted funds whose worth is enough to sink boreholes in every nooks and cranies of their constituencies, renovates schools, build clinics, e.tc. Or is it Ministers that will loot every Kobo alloted to them to carryout works or projects. What exactly do we have these people for?

No good roads, no adequately equipped hospital - I saw a post earlier on where a teaching hospital MRI machine has been faulty in Oyo State and it just left to be like that. And you will be surprised if the government of this said state is to be investigated, you will be surprised how many MRI machines is in the pocket of someone in that goverment.

In another state a governor is said to have stolen N80B. And it's the same looting in going on in almost all states. How many projects will N80B covers in a state? How many schools will it renovate? How many years of outstanding gratuities of retired workers will it pay?

No water, no light, dirty streets. Infact they failed in providing adequate security in the Nation they loot so much from. It's like they want to finish looting and run away. I just can't comprehend.

What exactly is the use of these politicians?

At least they keep touching people's lives visibly with post-campaign oppression.
And forget it, in the next election, you'd still vote for them.

...touching people's lives indeed! It has become a cycle of hopeless venture.
