Yea...to an extent! but it has really given rise to some anomalies which I may not mention here. However, modernity is also an imperative advancement! 1 Like |

This is the effect of modernization . Hardly do people feel bored like before. With modern gadget like cable tv (dstv) , laptop, smart phone computer games, internet and even nairaland etc, u may be so cosume that u will hardly feel people presence. Indirectly materialism is the major cause, everyone is busy chasing money nowadays. Ego and superiority is the order of the day. 1 Like |

vikel2104: Does modern life promote individualism?It is not about Modern life .... It is the system of Government ..... Nigeria has tend towards Capitalism more than any other system though in textbooks .... Nigerian economy is tagged ''MIXED-ECONOMY'' but Reality .....it is Capitalism !! It would have been difference if we Operate Communalism or Socialism though each comes with its merit and demerit as communists and socialists have been tagged to promote mediocrity while Capitalism enables Man to eat as far as your brain and Hands could carry you but One Man for Ihmself !! In a Capitalist economy , it is one man for himself because the resources @ your disposal is not enough to cater for your folks talkless of thinking bout other folks ..... Then everybody start chasing running around chasing samething competitively !! 2 Likes |

I remember growin up in Nigeria,it was all nice mehn, every night we would have a play with the neighbours kids, Our parent would sit outside the compound too sharing various stories of their day. Now im in the WESTERN world where you don't even get to see your neighbour let alone know his/her name and it pains me Africa is driving to this direction with the way we are throwing away our culture,I pray our leaders find a way to restore our land and culture. Im out. |

To me, it is prosperity that leads to individualism because communality rises out of a necessity to share and depend on one another. |
