Nigeria Is Becoming A Failed State – Prof. Ben Nwabueze by fatdon1(m): 6:54am On Feb 17, 2013 |
Former Secretary General of Ohaneze Ndigbo, Prof. Ben Nwabueze, SAN, yesterday, raised an alarm over the poor state of affairs in the country, saying “Nigeria is fast turning into a failed state.” Nwabueze, who spoke at the 14th annual convention of the Igbo Youth Movement, IYM, in Enugu, said the country was already displaying all the attributes of a failed state. According to him, “This country is on the verge of becoming a failed state, there are so many failed states in Africa and Nigeria is on the verge of getting that status of a failed state. ”Before now, we didn’t know about kidnapping, but it has become a way of life. Did we know about bombings before? But today, churches, schools, offices are being bombed on daily basis, the worst is that the bombers are not coming from outside the country, we are bombing ourselves. ”A nation that cannot provide a credible election for her people is a failed state; in 2003, 2011 we had no credible elections, yet we are talking about democracy. ”A country that cannot secure social and economic rights for her people is a failed state. Read chapter 2 of Nigeria’s constitution and you will understand what I am taking about, they are not leaders but looters”. |

Enough of the negativity.Continue to live in the delusion that Nigeria is moving forward. Truth is truth irrespective Of the one saying it. The man have said the truth and wasn't the first to do so. Nigeria is not the only country that is complex. Saying the truth is not being negative. Just prove the professor wrong with facts and figures. 1 Like |

GEJ lackeys and adulators won't be comfortable with what the respected prof said ; that the elections of 2011 weren't credible, and that we don't have leaders but looters! Thanks Prof for not being a turncoat or a political sycophant! Nigeria is not becoming a failed state, it is a failed state! When you have thieves as leaders, they steal lives! 1 Like |

Prof. Nwabueze! What a traitor!! He is a disgrace to IGBOs!!! Why will he criticise an "IGBO" President --- Goodluck Ebelechukwu Azikiwe Jonathan?? Doesn't he know that it's only Yorubas and Hausas that criticise "Our Son"?? |

Our Yansh: Prof. Nwabueze!Call evil evil even if your brother is involved in it. That is what we call patriotism. With your type of reasoning, Nigeria will never achieve greatness. So the professor should start praising Jonathan and dancing azonto because Jonathan is his kinsman? Stay away from ethnic bigotry. |

Can you imagine the audacity? 40 years ago when millions were dying like flies owing to his people's stupi.d decision to fight war with cutlasses, we never heard the term "failed state". It is today when hundred odd folks die in a year via bombings that we will now start throwing such terms about? Merely because some freckled white kid came up with the term to insult his fathers? Rubbish. And then mr "professor" pigsshit now follows along in true mumu style to infest us with the garbage? Rejected! |

Even Nigerians are failed people. Failed people produce state. People perfectly described by Lord Lugard since a 100 yrs ago. Looking at majority of the youths in dis country, one would see dat their hope lingering for the future. Doomed forever! It's painful I belong here. |
