OP Organise a Revolution like your Ghanian Counterparts. Asking People to receive Treatment or School where you want is a clear Violation of Democracy. My own political problem is making sure Donald Trump doesnt smell Presidency. . This is not a blog. But Haters deal with it. #PROUDLY LONGHORN 1 Like

cc Lalasticlala this na front page material Those Nairalanders like Ena and Omojuwa will disagree with the poster. They soil my timeline with their numerous worthless praises of one political party or the other after receiving cash from them. We say we want a better Nigeria and the poor people are not helping issues at all. Nice writeup 19 Likes |

CAUSES OF POVERTY IN NIGERIA 1. Unemployment 2. Bad leadership/Poor governance 3. Corruption 4. Poverty is also resulting from Africa’s excessive reliance on foreign culture and products. 5. Poor economy 6. Illiteracy ELIMINATING POVERTY IN NIGERIA AND AFRICA The very first step in eliminating poverty and tactically reducing armed conflicts in Africa is good governance and leadership. This is key to addressing the problem of poverty in Africa. A government that will critically tackle the issue of unemployment, welfare, social infrastructures and corruption. These are key issues in resolving conflicts in African. The truth is that most of the people been used by the influential untouchables to carry out criminal acts, are jobless or are into a job that cannot buy them daily meal. Europe is where they are today because of effective and efficient leadership. Of course Europe has its own problems too, but when you walk in the streets of countries in Europe, you will have a feeling of perfection because they have good leadership. Good welfare packages must be provided. African leaders must invest heavily in agriculture. Industries should be set up. This would provide jobs and also reduce our much reliance on European products. Education is also very important in solving the problems of armed conflicts and insecurity in Africa. Financial poverty is part of cultural poverty, for which education is the only antidote. If you cure cultural poverty with education, financial poverty will be cured too. Education enhances productivity and creativity. Most schools and Universities in Africa are in poor shapes. This accounts for a large number of Africans trouping into American and European universities. Importantly too, government must make very serious efforts to enlighten people on family planning. This for me is key in addressing poverty in Africa. The various family units are very important to the state and in the positive transformation of Africa. How can a man who lives with less than 30 dollar per day have seven children, believing that one would grow up to be rich? This belief is archaic and senseless. It is true that children are blessings from God, but it is also true that God never told us to bring children that we cannot cater for. This is a big issue in Africa. It is so because these children will become part of the larger society in the future and if they lacked the necessary education in life, they may likely become nuisance to the society at large. - See more at: http://www.poverties.org/eliminating-poverty-in-africa-the-most-viable-solution-to-conflicts.html#sthash.dRXzNom0.dpuf 18 Likes 1 Share |

What does the government have to do with people born into poverty who then have several children, also born into poverty? That is the greatest cause of poverty and an overwhelming security risk. Is that a government responsibility or is that personal responsibility? I would venture to add that without polygamy and the subsequent poverty as a result, there would be no Boko Haram. What of the ignorant religious leaders who advise their flock to go forth and multiply knowing that many in their congregation struggle to take care of themselves? 22 Likes 3 Shares |

Nice write up. @op I've never understood our Nigerian situation. Being of the same origin of our former senate president, D.B. Mark, I've witnessed some truly mind boggling events. Terrible roads doesn't even come close to our problems and yet scores of youth and elderly ones rush to "welcome home" their son whenever he comes home (in his helicopter) before dashing off to play some rounds of golf with other "sons and daughters" of the land. However, with the electorate gradually being enlightened and observing the trend of the last elections, Nigerians are beginning to wake up from our deep sleep, we might need a few more shrugs (maybe a few slaps) but one things is sure, we will overcome. 20 Likes |

Nairaland has become a joke. You can never read any reasonable comment here anymore. It is all about space booking and smileys. You see an interesting post and you expect to equally see educative comments or meaningful contributions, but no way! It is either 'ok', 'oi', '.' or 'true', 'well said', 'i'll be right back', 'space booked' etc. 26 Likes 1 Share |

True. Nigeria is a very rich nation but we're ranked amongst the world's poorest nations. The way that we live,reason and behave got me feeling and believing that we're living in a "psychiatric nation". So long as our leaders keep playing God in our lives and we keep giving them the opportunity to do so,we'd continually live as slaves to them. There's also a silent epidemic ravaging Nigeria today,which most people haven't taken note of. There seems to be an upsurge in the number of silly and gullible Nigerians being developed daily. Nairaland and the last elections,has afforded me the opportunity of knowing that for a fact. The way some people vehemently defend some politicians and political parties with all their being even when they are sounding very stupid,could be quite amazing. The two things that I personally see as destroying the psyche of most Nigerians,are "poverty of the mind" and "stupidity and the constant act of being gullible". 18 Likes 3 Shares |
