For allowing the future of millions of Nigerians to be ruined by few corrupt and dinosaur-brained leaders, the world believes we are useless. No reasonable person can decipher the kind of humans we are and how we reason. We don't even allow people criticise the grossly incompetent leaders because of tribalism and foolish inclination to religion. Out of foolishness we demand for the heads of young Nigerians who brave it, calling for a change of the status quo. While honest people bare their minds and give us candid opinions that can free us from the long-built shackles of poverty and debasement, the generational curse of stupidity, tribal bias and pseudo-religiosity will not allows us think of ourselves and know how doomed we are.
Nigeria is a land of humongous blessings. There is gold on every street in Nigeria. We should be on top, leading the world in everything considering our enormous natural deposits. Our soil can feed the entire world but unfortunately we are the biggest beggars, borrowers, debtors and the poverty capital of the world. Most annoyingly, Nigerians hate independence. We sell the goat and hold the rope because we think the next person may be richer, greater. If we have sense, Lagos should be independent, Rivers, Kano, Anambra can be independent or forced to create wealth. Regions can stand and explore all their resources and use it wisely but we prefer to be many, stuffed like garbage, useless, unproductive and doomed, wasting all resources both natural and human, depending on government that doesn't know our number or what we need.
In sane climes, leadership is a challenge. You must account to your employers, the masses. It has to do with wealth creation but our own is wealth-squandering, mismanagement and poverty creation. We elect people to squander what nature has given us. What if we have no resources tomorrow, what will happen to our children? Revolution is needed urgently in Nigeria. Enough of pulldown syndromes!

Yes

Yes, Lagos, Ibadan, Anambra, Enugu, Rivers, Kano, Kaduna can stand and survive on their own as individual countries.

I have been to several west African countries.

Gambia is a country of 2 million people consisting of 1.4 million Gambians and 0.5 million foreigners, Gambia GDP is less than Anambra GDP and they are surviving.

Benin Republic beside us here has a GDP that is less than Kaduna GDP not to talk of Rivers or Lagos GDP and Benin Republic is surviving.

Ghana GDP is less than Lagos GDP.

Liberia GDP is less than Enugu GDP not to talk of Kano, Kaduna, Rivers or Lagos GDP

Senegal GDP is less than Kaduna GDP not to talk of Rivers or Lagos GDP

Serria Leone GDP is less than Kaduna GDP not to talk of Rivers or Lagos GDP

Wow, good to hear

Of course all these places can stand on their own. Bút an Anambra man, never would I want my state to stand alone without all the Igbos/Igboids and indigenous Igbo speaking people in Nigeria as an independent country.

If Jamaica of just 3 million people can stand alone as an independent country, Anambra with a larger population and GDP can stand alone too

Do we have the courage to do the right thing?
