This was a good one that needed some teaching,explanations to the writer but so many people instaed of giving LECTURES are busy causing, BAD.To the poster;the reasons are many;
1.the people that can effect these changes are not rich enough to carry it out.This is a very expensive project.The people that can do  it are enjoying the riches of ill-gotten money.
2.The great betrayal of the Ibo would make anybody think twice before adventuring to such a project again.
The changes are coming but very gradual.i visited Lagos [oshodi and other places] i saw the difference when compared to 5years ago when i left nig.This is a one-man army.We are gradually moving towards an improved Nigeria--cos the era of massive rigging of election is at sight.When true leathers emerge will will be better.
3.Those that stole our money in mils and bils doesn't teach their children that there can be a better life for the populace.some of us that struggled and are in G8 countries are really learning very fast and will soon make an impact in nigeria.Belive me the generation of your dad[poster]are those that came to abroad with a looting treasury from their father ,grand father or any other family members.They don't care for changes

al-qaeda:

i disagree with the poster. nigerians are not cowards. how can you call a person who crosses the street when a car at full speed is only 10 feet away a coward. your mistaken my friend. that is what i call bravery.

How many of u in support that we are not cowards have stood up to a police officer who slapped a female civilian injustly without any provocation from her part. there u go. goodluck with your rally

First off, I don't have to introduce myself to those that already know me on here. I know some insults are coming and I'm braced,I aint really worried cus those that know definitely know that I'm writing this out of concern and love that I got for the people of that 'could be' great nation called Nigeria. It baffles me that the populace could be taken for a ride and like a buncha hypnotized monkeys just sit there and don't do nothing to change their destiny. Those that are familiar with what led to uprisings in Liberia, Sierra Leone, Ivory Coast, Dominican Republic (under Trujillo), Cuba (causing the rise of Castro), and as recently as The Phillipines, Thailand,and other spots around the world, knw that the nations above did not endure close to what Nigerians have endured before tearing they nation to bits asking for change. Every weekend, I hear my dad and his crew of living room gangstas scream to the high heavens about all that is wrong with Nigeria while none of them plan to go back to take action!!! I asked a friend of my dads,last weekend,why he didn't go back to try to effect some change if he so passionately believed in his rants. He looked at me like I had asked him to go into a boxing ring with the devil himself! His retort?'Why don't you go fight for them, you're young,they waiting for you. Why should I go fight for them?'. And mind you he wasn't joking, he meant it (I could tell cus he had that mad/evil look in his face). What's my biz with Nigeria? Why should I fight for her? Why can't her citizens pick up the gauntlet and chase the corrupt elite from power a la the french revolution? Why are Nigerians scared to lay they lives down for the good of the future? What are Nigerians scared of? Why are Nigerians cowardly?!

Why are Nigerians scared to lay they lives down for the good of the future? What are Nigerians scared of? Why are Nigerians cowardly?!

this is why i love the internet so much. universal freedom of speech. Everyone can come online and rant till kingdom come. its easy 2 talk d talk but are u capable of walking d walk?
Let us all be honest we are all cowards. Some people blame people like me for leaving nigeria instead of staying behind and helping to develop. my answer is develop what?
How many of u in support that we are not cowards have stood up to a police officer who slapped a female civilian injustly without any provocation from her part. there u go. goodluck with your rally

yep - illiterate (Stillwater, to answer your question)

You only need to be educated enough and have enough exposure to compare Nigeria with other west-african countries and other African countries, especially those with resources.

You also need to understand that most of these "developed" countries are "developed" on loans AND at this time, they are very desperate and are practically colonizing countries they term "developing" OR "3rd world".

One way they can do that is to divide the country so as to destabilize the "Democracy" and with that they send their "peace" keeping forces - while you guys are thinking of where to go to as refugees, they will be busy drilling away and exporting away.

MEANWHILE, the silly murderfuckers they have used to facilitate these things will be denied all that they promised them because those will not have anything to hold them by.

Those people they use are the ones that insight pigs like these poster and the rest of his co"revolutionaries", who will blindly fall for them and after it all they will be in a situation where they will not even have access to the computer without being checked by the US troops or "peace " keeping troops LET ALONE the Internet

You see?, thats why illiteracy is a disease,BUT I prefer to call it an accident.

So poster, go and rot in hell. Yaradua or no yaradua, I dont give a Zap; That Muttalab guy should have blown those idiots to Oyakhilome's Bliss for all I care,

BUT for you POSTER - I Pray the revolution you hope for Nigeria will happen in your home AND Family, Amen.

those who who dont give a Bleep are the ones that actually get bleeped, do you know that. care enough to make a contribution, if naija gets better will u not enjoy it.

stillwater:

Good one!!!

Easy to shout we are not cowards, but everyday we see injustice in all its form, and people just pass by like nothing happened.

If you want to "fight" the "injustice" start from yourself!, lets see you as an example. BUT don't get all up in that your "revolution" thinking, you sound so illiterate.

Typical writing of a man who suddenly realises he is a failure and has lost direction

N.I.Gboi:

@poster- if u call Nigerians cowards, then u are a bigger one!
@ikengawo - why don't u shoot them urself?

I won't call Nigerians cowards, its just that most Nigerians don't believe in Nigerians don't believe in Nigeria anymore.

Finally, someone thinks like me. I totally understand where you're coming from cos whenever I'm in Nigeria I always hear pple complaining about how Nigeria sucks and how no good will ever come out from our country. It's funny how they complain about how awful it is and at the same time, they're not doing anything about changing the situation of things, still as corrupt as ever, not changing their work ethics and stop complaining sooo much.

I think we can all do our own best to change Nigeria, so this year I've decided to think positively, and not complain so much cos murmuring doesn't solve anything. I guess if we all did a little bit to change Nigeria (living in NG or not), Nigeria will probably/hopefully get better this decade.

@ bk_baybe99: J[b]ust wondering, what are you doing to be a "better" Nigerian?[/b] If you've already answered that, sorry. Haven't read all the posts yet.

Cowards?  You got it! Any man in the house? Naaaaaaaaaaa! I doubt it! No, there's no man in the house as they haven't got the stomach to challenge the powers at Abuja and, who would take the initiative?  Meeeeeeee! Who else? Some don't even know where Abuja is and haven't been there before, won't even bother to find out let alone to have a show down with the powers that be. Otio o o o!

But if it was women issues - women asking for Equal Rights and respect, damn! Stop them! You see, they'd all be up in arms intimidating, controlling, abusing and crushing all our efforts in that respect.

No matter how hard we try to communicate sense to them, they still think we are trying to  take over the Universe and rule them, instead of finding a way to bring a change in our culture and country. 

You see, insecurity is the disease Nigerian men would have to get over with, as our men are nothing but mouth, mouth, mouth when it comes to dealing with challenges - in fact, a bunch of women wrappers confused of how to go about reclaiming back their own country!                         

And now, awaiting all the abuses - bring them on!
