Ways We All Have Contributed To This Mess! by dein77(m): 7:32am On Nov 27, 2014
Corruption and indiscipline are issues quite common in every society. They are issues troubling every single nation or state.

But the corruption and indiscipline here in Nigeria is alien to commonsense and history. Corruption is the main problem facing us as a nation. It has pervaded every fabric and strata of our society. It smells at Aso Rock. It smells at the over bloated NASS. It's unchecked in the Judiciary. Nigeria is corruption!!!!

But it's perhaps worse amongst the masses.

Below are some common ways we have contributed to this monster of corruption and indiscipline:

* we don't oppose our corrupt leaders.
* we don't obey traffic rules
* we keep paying our bills without steady power
*we embrace ethnicity and religion to the detriment of our own progress
*most of us don't even have a copy of our Constitution.
* we throw dirts on our own roads
*we engage in jungle justice. ...mob action
*we are fraudulent in our little ways.....etc.

These are just a few. There are many other ways we have helped and emboldened our oppressors.

It takes corrupt masses to have corrupt rulers. Our rulers reflect the kind of people we are. Every people deserve their own government.

If we must progress, then we must be thorns to our looters. We must be clogs in their looting wheel. We can't be loyal to our oppressors.

How do we achieve that? By changing our ways. We must convert those prayers into righteous actions. God will NEVER buildiNigeria. That's our duty.

You can some more ways we are contributing to this mess...

Shalom.

The cycle of corruption would continue has long has 90% of Nigerians both literate and ilitrates behave like Idiots and imbeciles.....How can you explain a Nigeria with a professorship degree still believing The major reason for voting an individual into an position is Ethnicity or Religion....There seem to be a Nigerian factor that affects the intelligence of majority of Nigerians. After voting thugs, illitrates and criminals into positions of Authority we turn around and complain they are stealing and embezling...smh
We voted an illitrate into the Position of President and we are complaining the Economy is going bad, the Government is talking of Austerity measures without talking of reduces the Huge cost of salaries and allowances of Government officials.....May God help the country before it explodes

It's seriously strange. As if something is fundamentally wrong with the brain of a typical Nigerian. We would support an obvious criminal cos of religious bias or ethnic bias....and so we have lost our sense of judgement between right and wrong. Most of the politicians are just a reflection of an average Nigerian mentality of power and money at all cost without working ...to oppress the people around so they can b seen as gods

The tunnel is so long, and there seems to be no light in sight. We indeed have a deeply flawed mentality.

Our leaders didn't fall from Pluto. They are from the wide society. We are in a deep mess.
