Obi1kenobi: WRONG. Infrastructure is developing at a smooth pace. Lagos today and Lagos of 1985 are like two different cities. Awka of 1990 was a village. Today it houses major industries, high-end retail services, including shopping malls, industrial estates, and major road and housing developments. Cities like Uyo have grown from impoverished villages to shining examples of sensible urban planning and development. Many other signs of a developing nation abound throughout Nigeria. Not to mention indigenous vehicle and computer manufacturing, and the growth in the services, such as the financial sector. Today, we have micro loans available for business startups who can present a viable idea. That's an incredible development considering where we are coming from. Go to Yaba in Lagos. Nigeria's Silicon Valley. It is a haven and centre of startups. Many of its startups have attracted private investor support from across the globe to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars in total. It was the first place Mack Zuckerburg visited on his last trip to Nigeria. The place is run by Nigerians, trained right here in Nigeria. That's progress. That's development. Yaaaaawn.....predictable jealous drivel. No, the overwhelming majority of Israel's immigrants were not rich settlers. Most left a hostile European continent with little to nothing and spent years and decades before independence skirmishing with Arabs and toiling in kibbutzes as mostly farmers. And America's $3.5b in security aid for Israel has squat to do with Israel's $300b economy. Israel is a successful country because Jews are an immensely successful, enterprising group. When you grow out of your jealousy, you might get to digest that simple fact. Sorry. But throwing BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ANNUALLY at a tiny country of 8 million ALREADY RICH/MIDDLE CLASS Europeans in Israel WILL produce a prosperous nation. Saudi Arabia is equally successful. Tiny country with billions of dollars falling into its lap daily. You don't compare Nigeria with those countries. We ain't as LUCKY as them. 1 Like |

Seems as if some of the confused, sometimes desperate, responses to Rossiki's clear and concise position are informed by the unconscionable fear that acsepting his submission amounts to supporting his political party affiliation. Funnily enough it seems to me that much of what beegeagle wrote recently on his blog, about some Nigerian people penchant for lying (as he saw it) owes much to this inability among politically minded Nigerians to be objective, the inability to separate matters without wanting to superimpose political needs on top in such a way that it skews the argument in favour of thire biases.... 2 Likes |

oyatz: The colonialists provided electricity to select communities, usually middle class/colonial-inhabited parts of big cities..(the places we call GRAs today). They used huge imported generators which guaranteed 24/7 power, but had very limited coverage. Total national capacity was about 200 megawatts. A national grid wasn't actually built until after independence, together with real power stations. 1 Like |

Rossikki: You're ahead of them in a stagnant state, only giving the illusion of progress through averaged data and unreliable statistics. Funnily enough, you've been very quick to mention how the other Asian states were helped by the United States, but there's no elongated discussion about Vietnams history here and how the US is known to have isolated them for years. The nominal per capita for Viet is 2,553.987 projected for 2017, and 2,741.226 for 2018, that is how fast they are growing. They have set their sights firmly on developed status, by 2020 Nigeria will be officially behind them (Nigeria is already behind them). In 2016 they grew by over 6% while Nigeria lagged at 1.6%. http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2014/02/weodata/weorept.aspx?pr.x=73&pr.y=7&sy=2014&ey=2018&scsm=1&ssd=1&sort=country&ds=.&br=1&c=582&s=NGDPD%2CNGDPDPC%2CPPPGDP%2CPPPPC%2CLP&grp=0&a= They have huge growth in tourism, while people actively avoid Nigeria, even those that travel to Africa regularly. First of all, Nigeria completely relies on oil, while Vietnam has a more diversified economy. The average life expectancy of a Nig is 52 years and for Viet it's around 75. Vietnam still has issues, but it's an investment magnet that's being eyed by everyone, the political climate is sturdy, and there aren't a whole bunch of IDP camps and mumus blowing themselves up all over the place, etc. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-16567315 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-13949550 Now which magical Europeans did this for them?

ezeagu: For you and your disgruntled ilk, everything in Nigeria is always stagnant and bad. Everyone is suffering and dying in your dark little world. To hell with your pessimism. You can migrate to Vietnam. Many of us are thriving here, and have plans for the future. We are not lazy, self hating folks who don't see anything good in themselves. Go abroad. You will see thousands of Vietnamese in menial jobs, washing toilets all over the place. The same Vietnam you're calling a paradise on earth here. The nominal per capita for Viet is 2,553.987 projected for 2017, and 2,741.226 for 2018, that is how fast they are growing. They have set their sights firmly on developed status, by 2020 Nigeria will be officially behind them (Nigeria is already behind them). In 2016 they grew by over 6% while Nigeria lagged at 1.6%. Actually Nigeria's was 2.11% for 2016. And growth rate year-on-year is normally fluctuating for most countries. All nations experience recession. If you were honest you would measure GDP growth rate over a ten year period, rather than just measuring the growth rate for last year. On a general 10 or 20 year period, our GDP has grown by an average 5% per annum. First of all, Nigeria completely relies on oil, while Vietnam has a more diversified economy. Wrong. Oll and gas accounts for less than 20% of Nigeria's annual GDP of $529 billion. The average life expectancy of a Nig is 52 years and for Viet it's around 75. Stop quoting silly figures. If you really believe the average Nigerian kicks the bucket at age 52, you need help! Vietnam still has issues, but it's an investment magnet that's being eyed by everyone, the political climate is sturdy, and there aren't a whole bunch of IDP camps and mumus blowing themselves up all over the place, etc. There's a huge rise in violence in Vietnam according to this report: http://thediplomat.com/2017/06/whats-behind-vietnams-rising-violence/ Not to mention Ho Chi Minh city, commercial capital, has nothing nearly like Makoko or are removing them and upgrading the people living, it isn't a huge heap of garbage like Lagos This is Ho Chin Minh city.

ezeagu:You are right, Vietnam is way better today and has made steady progress after the war though still not there yet. One thing we must consider though is that Nigeria for a large part of her history after independence has been under military rule following a series of coups and political instability till 1999, and obasanjo also did little in terms of infrastructure. The military made some positive improvements though but not enough compared to what they looted and the years of stagnancy. Nigeria is on the path of great change, the problem now is the internal crises and the structure that allows such high corruption, and old school/clueless men to lead her in this age. The biggest problem however in my opinion is the dependence on oil for revenue (considering that oil only makes up 10% of Nigeria's GDP), as well as her lack of unity along religious and ethnic lines. Notwithstanding l would not deny that Nigeria is on the path of great progress punching below her weight slowly. 1 Like |

But despite her problems and the statistics that put 70% under the poverty line, it is a fact that Nigerians everywhere are also making it big time, with a rising and strong middle class, even though this has little to do with the Government, it is also a fact that those who clamour for white rule or a return to the colonial days argue from ignorance and emotion. 3 Likes |

Rossikki: What does it say when power cuts make the news from 2010 and 2015? How many articles on Nigerian papers headline power cuts in Lagos? Please go and check the electricity production of Vietnam vs. Nigeria, even the article you googled talked about one power cut per day, and that was under certain circumstances in 2010. Maybe you also don't know that the Nigerian economy operates on oil? Is that an argument? How many articles are you going to Google till you find the Vietnamese version of Boko Haram or Fulani Herdsmen? You don't know how life expectancy works, life expectancy is calculated in a number of ways including the average age of a siblings death. Yes, people in Nigeria live much shorter, this is even reflected in entertainment. That's not even counting the deaths from Fulani terrorists, Boko Haram, road accidents which are some of the worst in the world, pollution which are some of the worst in the world, malnutrition which are some of the worst in the world, bad or nonexistent health care, and so on. No matter how many images of shacks you find, an average westerner which is where the huge amount of tourism money comes from will run a mile before picking dirty Nigeria over Vietnam.
