This is a very good point!!. The Government in Nigeria is the innocent mirror of the nation. The quality of government and its leaders in Nigeria, is simply a reflection of the collective consciousness of all the people. If the collective consciousness in Nigeria is disintegrated and negative, and people are not behaving in accord with Natural Law, then problems and corruption will be an unavoidable phenomenon of government. If, on the other hand, the collective consciousness in Nigeria is positive, integrated, and coherent, then the government will not be influenced by any negativity. If the people of Nigeria wish to be protected from corruption in government, then they must create an integrated collective consciousness. Positivity and harmony should be so strong and dense in national consciousness that negative influences cannot penetrate it.

Please come back to the reality and stop reading from a text book


Is not possible that bad government can be imposed on good people. Thailand , venzulea , cuba are valid examples.

Let us take an example :If 100% of the Nigerians are positives how can you have a bad government?

those governments are/were openly supported by the electorate.  Are you saying the people can't be blamed for a pattern of bad leadership?

This is exactly the point I was trying to make!!!

i share your views on the topic but will like to disagree on some issues, in Nigeria the govt is simply a collection of business goons who elect who rule us on there terms , like it or not come 2011 yar a dull will be president and most state will be pdp . be cos of the facts you ve already enumerated. the question is not about poverty likewise poverty should open our eyes to the ease at wish selected few are able to destroy the economy. average Nigerian s have lost the fire to fight for there rights , we are docile in brain most time , we know wan die , papa DE for house etc,.

@ode remo,
like vigasimple said, hunger is a very big weapon. in afghanistan, osama bin laden succeeded because he met a hungry ppl. in pakistan today, taliban and other islamic group are raising more suicide bombers there because the ppl are hungry. in the northern part of nigeria today, an alhaji who feeds many hungry ppl in his house has the power to make them go out and fight a war without asking why compare to the situation in the western and eastern part of nigeria. are u saying afghanistan and pakistan are more islamic than saudi arabia, united arab emirates and kuwait.
biafra fought a war which they lost under 30 months with the human and property lost still telling on them till date. what nigerians are doing today to me is not act of cowardice rather they are afraid of the likely consequences.
if we are talking about wars and revolutions, how does these things work? do u fight wars with bare hands or do u consider the possibilities of matching what the govt have in their armoury.
the tamil tigers rebels in sri lanka have sourrendered to the govt forces after 25 years of war, are they cowards and what is the end product of their wars?
wise and brave men re choosen among the living and not the dead. be informed that americans and ghanians are not more industrious than nigerians neither are they more law abiding than nigerians rather they are lucky to be under good governance.

The Past Military Regime is our Backwardness, Because we fear for Army gun and Police Brutality.This is Democracy Let us not think Democracy is like Military Regime where Army have the right to treat you anyhow they like.We have to think for once.If we want to move this Country forward.Let forget what will happen.We fear the Government they are Human being like Us, Please We cant fear them Instead let them fear Us. We cant continue to give those slowpoke a chance to defeat us always.Nairalander,Nigerians It time to Knock Down of your Neighbor to Advice them and Let act fast on the coming Election 2011.If you believe we can do it. Say Yes we can.
