Please can the Buhari supporters and the Anti Buharis hold their peace for a second let's reason together? I have honestly lost hope in this country and I am going to tell you why I fear it may never get any better even after Buhari.

When I was in the east for xmass, I listened to several igbo high life musics that were mostly released in the eighties. All of these music have a thing in common, the singers at a point complained of the hardship in the country and urged us to have faith that things will get better eventually.

One stated clearly that Nigeria's problem is tribalism, the singer said that for Nigeria to get better, Hausas should see igbo and Yoruba man as his brothers, Yoruba man should see hausa and igbo men as his brothers and igbo man should see Yoruba man and hausa man as his brothers. You and I know that this is not possible.

This musics like I have already stated were released in the eighties, now fast forward to today(How many years later) the same issue that they complained of back then still persists. If truly tribalism is Nigeria's problem then it's safe to say that our problem has no solution.

Why?

Because tribalism is patriotism in its truest form. A tribalistic Yoruba man is a patriotic Yoruba man. A tribalistic Igbo is a patriotic Biafran, likewise Hausa so how can we get better.

There was a question that I asked myself the other day that I still haven't been able to answer.

What exactly is the "NIGERIA DREAM"?

Do you know it?

I doubt if there's any because by the look of things, it is obvious that we as a nation currently cannot see beyond 2019; and after 2019 has come we will focus on 2023 to vote out our 2019 mistake. Same thing is likely to happen in 2023-2027.

Sarrki said in a comment that Buhari must complete his second tenure so that power will shift to south in 2023. This here is exactly our problem and I don't think there is a solution.

I strongly believe that even if Buhari tenders his resignation letter tonight and Osibanjo assumes office tomorrow, the much we can feel him is a month or maybe two before he joins the gang of never do wells.

I read today that snake stole money somewhere........ And the little hope I had in Nigeria disappeared.

Ekiseme:
Me Sha for one, believe that things will eventually get better.

Tallesty1:
I will really appreciate if you can tell why you still believe it will get better.



Lalasticlala please move to front page let's get other people's opinion.

Ekiseme:
apart from being optimistic,
A true leader will emerge one day and fix the country.

Tallesty1:
Assuming you're this true leader, what will you do differently?

Ekiseme:
transparency and sincerity will go a long way for a start.

Tallesty1:
Upcoming Buhari


On a serious note, I do believe that the aforementioned will go a long way but how are you going to make it happen in a society as corrupt as Nigeria.

ivandragon:
depends on three key things:

1. what aspect you are looking at getting better? economy? security? sociopolitical relations?


2. who takes over? another dubious character? a unifier? a divider?

3. what manner of take over? same lies as APC used? same money spending tactics of PDP? or an honest focused campaign?


I believe if the aforementioned areas can be gotten right, it will go a long way in bringing sanity to the system.

FarahAideed:
Trust me it will get better than what it is under Buhari

badboywizzy:
Our elders use to say, "what an old man sees while sitting, a young man cannot see it while standing even on top of something"


In my own opinion, i'll categorically say that Nigeria will never get better unless we restructure.

Ekiseme:
Me Sha for one, believe that things will eventually get better.

FarahAideed:
Trust me it will get better than what it is under Buhari ..Yes Nigeria has it's own peculiar problems like general low IQ, greed and tribalism that already stunts our growth but throwing a Dullard and animal like Buhari into the mix makes things a lot lot worse ..believe me when I tell you that if Buhari had not overthrown Shagari then things would have been a lot lot better ... Buhari is worst possible level of leadership a country can get and he can only make an already bad situation worse .

Because the damage your ineffectual buffoon, thief obasanjo and thief ibb caused this country is too much
