When will Nigerians get angry?

This question keeps popping in my head each time govt slaps us with a levy aimed at maintaining their obscene lifestyles.

Hardly have we come to terms with the CBN's draconian policy, directing telecoms companies to charge us more if we have any reasons to make phone calls beyond 2mins.

Here comes an NCC again, instructing the same telecoms to increase data charges, effective from next month.

We need to ask the Mr Minister of Communications, which categories of Nigerians are the most active data users?

Aren't they Students, Youths entrepreneurs? Unemployed graduates, youths seeking job advertisement online? Programmers? Et al.

Have these govt officials lost their minds? For God sake we employed this people to serve us and not to kill us.

When will Nigerians be angry?

Why is NCC hq and its state branches yet to be occupied by now?

The claim is Nigeria is broke and needs more revenue sources. Yet, some vagabonds in the national assembly are making orders for luxurious cars worth billions of scarce nairas?
Executives are pocketing billions of naira every month in the name of security votes?

The former minister of finance, Okonjo Iweala, at the end her tenure proposed that luxury items like imported wines, private jets and their owners be taxed/levied. Govt seem not to have enough courage to impose taxes on this items and individuals. Yet they look in the direction of hapless masses?

When will Nigerians get angry?

Godwin Emefiele & Mr Shittu wants Nigerians, whose income have not increased since the commencement of the leadership induced recession, to pay more in order maintain an overbloated, ineffective and imprudent govt?

I ask again, when will Nigerians get angry.

Nigeria belongs to us all and not the few in govt. The decision for better life should not be left in the hands of those within the corridors of power.

Influential leaders, Progressive Students Union Movement, NANS, Leftist organizations, should call for a mass action now!

Lalasticlala and mynd44 when will you guys be angry?

LONG OVER DUE REALLY.

We will one day... We still dey flex for now.... By the time the shiiit hits the fan and it's right there in our faces, we will.

When they truely stop mmm

pchukwudi:
LONG OVER DUE REALLY.

My brother, govt officials are taking everyone for a ride. NCC officials are barely up to 30 people and they call the wrong shot for millions. They could reverse the policy when Nigerians besiege their gate and demand for an immediate suspension of these draconian policy.

Can the situation be worse than it already is?

I don't just know, the elite are just playing games with the people.

Nigerians would prefer to club, party etc, while they are suffering. Suffering and smiling.

What kind of country is this
When would Nigerians get angry.

Later,not now.and I know when we do, it will be brutal.but don't force us to be angry,when we are ready to be agry, we will call you...kachifo!!!

I've been hoping, praying to see the day we'd prove that we're not mindless _morons. That when you continually grind the masses, the proletariats to the dirt, the insurrection would be inevitable.

I don't know if we'll ever get there but judging by the comments on social media where I see poor, deprived youths leaping to the defense of their oppressors, I reckon we're a long way off from reaching the point of national rage.

This your second paragraph is the part that breaks my heart daily. Why the heck should I struggle to buy data and use same to defend fani Kayode when he picks an argument with Jimoh Ibrahim. Or Fayose and buruji kashamu the fugitive.

Is it until we get taxed before having our bath? I feel sad to note we are still yet to decide when this will stop.

That question is worth a million dollar, when will Nigerians ever get angry?

This is the unfortunate fate that befalls us as a nation.

And these people don't see anything wrong with their warped mindset. They are not amenable to corrections, either. They term us "haters".

It's regrettable, really.

Really yet Nigerians rose up in masses to protest the fuel subsidy stuff in GEJ administration cos it was backed by political bigwigs who paid some people peanuts but failed to rise up again as they did when Bubu claimed he removed subsidy. Then u come here to ask us when Nigerians will get angry?
To answer ur question, when they stop being used as puppets by agents of political parties and start clearly thinking for themselves

You won't see all those hungry plebs here to come and chant their "Buhari is working" mantra now they will stylishly avoid this beautiful Eye-opener even they are mentioned.

Nigerians will never get angry, because the youths of this country lack history and we are so divided that we don't feel each other pains anymore. Take for example the way Igbo's and Yoruba's fight on nairaland, the people who come here to abuse tribes and ethnic groups are they foreigners? so until we correct this wickedness we are doing to ourselves we will continue to suffer in this country called Nigeria. Nairaland is suppose to be a platform to unit youths in this nation and not to divide us.

Una just dey find who Una go waste Im time.... The youths are already angry... Can't you see how fast we type on nairaland.... Dragging FTC position... Looking for who to push to the front and then u buy your popcorn and watch as the person is used as shooting practice.... Mtchwwwww

Nigerians will get angry in 2019

I think we owe this country a duty to whip the govt into line when they derail.

Nairaland should be a platform for conscientious deliberation, but it saddens one's hearth to note that ethnic machinations always takes the front burner.
The oppressors are always united when they want to share our common patrimony. But the oppressed are often divided when its time to hold them accountable.

After 2019, you will repeat the trend by 2023.

The shortcomings of democracy, I think Nigeria should have midterm elections to keep government on its toes.
