The first picture was taken at around 6.30pm on Saturday, 12 October, 2013 at first bank Igando where two waste bin was provided yet my people prefer to "decorate" the floor with ATM receipts.

The second picture simply shows a country man under a pedestrian bridge planning to cross the busy road while animals are making use of the bridge.


Which way Nigeria!!!

@op! The above topic does not fit this thread. Besides, it doesn't look front page worthy. I'd suggest you change the topic to something attractive.

Any suggestion?
I just feel we need to face ourselves and tell ourselves the truth. Our indiscipline is getting so so so unbearable!

An unfortunate pointer to the fact that we need national rebirth and orientation. Surely no numbers of policemen can make human beings stop behaving like animals.

Tolexander: Oh God of creation

As if you knew! I was singing the second stanza of our anthem this morning and it seems it is more applicable to our time than the first... Which I had to Pause at some points to Remember!

Second Stanza:

Oh God of Creation!
Direct our Noble cause
Guide thou our leaders right
Help our youths the truth to know.
In Love and honesty to grow
And live in just and truth
Great lofty heights attain
To build a Nation where
Peace and Justice shall reign.

As opposed to:

Arise oh Compatriot Nigeria call obey
To serve our Father land
With Love and Strength and Faith.
The Labour of our Heros past
Shall never be in vain.
To serve with Heart and Mind
One Nation bound in Freedom
Peace and Unity.

@topic, Its our usual Human error!!

We do see those signs on "pure water" sachet and other things like that yet we stil have them around us. My argument is that,we just have this non chalant attitude that we take almost everything for granted.

In Nigeria, anything goes. The people need a serious re-orientation. Funnily enough, overseas in the western world, Nigerians learn to behave themselves to a given extent but in Nigeria, it is a different story.

Op. You made sense. It's only if money is attached that our pple will be responsible.

Say:

*come and collect #200 for using the dustbin,
*come for your cash prize for putting your receipt in the dustbin,
*after putting your receipt in the dustbin, check inside for free gift...
