The Hoax Of Democracy by Nobody: 3:00pm On Nov 06, 2016
It is gradually becoming clear that the system of one man one vote is a big scam and eventually the elected(selected) people only fulfills their own dreams and pockets(African democracies leads the chart) but don't expect these elected people to change the status quo because those systems (elections)that got them their positions has rewarded them handsomely.(Nigerian senate comes to mind).
In the past 200 years we see over time how democratic-led governments has repeatedly failed to reach the utopian state( USA, UK, France) comes to mind. All these governments achieved was to establish a system of keeping the populace in an everlasting cycle of "work-eat-die" continuum.
Consequently, people are beginning to look to the Singaporean example of Autocratic-One State rule that has catapulted countries from abject poverty to truly prosperous in less than 20 years(China comes to mind of course).
But how do we solve this problem in Nigeria where multi-ethnicity, religious discrimination and lack of cohesion is rife?

you start from local govt and scale up to state, then region and hopefully they don't give you awolowo treatment. Or just develop your region and when the other regions are tired they will beg you to come and fix their own for them
