Frankly speaking non or few Nigerians themselves have a solution to our problem. Taking to the streets won't solve the problem rather will lead to blood bath, we are too advanced to get into such a rumple with our so called leaders.
I want Nigerians to note that most of all so called Nigerian present leaders have nothing to offer. No good policies and no structures feasible in their mind set. they are just after what they'll acquire for their great grand children and the most expensive houses to acquire in Dubai.
It's no use trading words with them, cos they don't even see the sense in all the noise we make. Most of them have sold their heart to the devil, so no matter how embittered you feel, how deep you are hurt by their selfish policies, no matter how many Nigerians die everyday, they don't give a damn.
JONATHAN was not the best for Nigerian, he is just a puppet. He will never and can not fulfill his election promises, so let's get that into our heads.
He was not ready to lead Nigerian when OBJ called upon him. Just that they felt he was the best at that time.

I WANT TO MAKE A POINT
1. Can Good Luck Ebere Jonathan tell Nigerians how much makes from crude oil sales everyday?
2. Can GEJ tell Nigerians that he established a company which intends to export Nigerian coal abroad, which will yield him billions of dollars per month?
3. Can he tell Nigerians How many oil companies he has floated in Saotomi and Ivory coast?
4. Will he swear to Nigerians that he is not aware of the oil rackets his wife is involved in?
To mention but a few.

If Good Luck Ebere Jonathan is a true leader, with what is facing Nigeria now, I expect him to cut his salary and that of his subordinates, traveling expenses and state house expenses. It'll yield Nigeria so much billion to pay for our external debts, but I dare him!. That is patriotism.

My advice is this, whether we like it or not. This selfish set of leader we have will never and will not initiate any policy to better Nigerian masses.
Nigerian should learn to depend on themselves, self independence. Always believe that you 'DO NOT HAVE ANY GOVERNMENT'
We have to help ourselves in diverse way to be self reliant. We should find a way of sourcing drilling crude oil to refine our own petroleum, kerosene and diesel.
If you have idle land, let out to people that can cultivate on it to produce food at little or no cost.
We should learn how to do things ourselves without looking at our so called leaders. By the time they realize that the tax generated is nothing to write home about, they will have no more money to loath, then we'll come back to the drawing board. B'cos I am not expected to pay tax to any government that doesn't care for my walfare. If we don't pay taxes, let's see how government will be run.

GEJ need not acquire more arms to quell any uprising in Nigeria if or when it comes,all he needs do is exploit the poverty stricken situation of Nigerians by simply distributing bags of rice on the so called day of protest,and trust naija pips now, protest go turn to struggle for akpa/akpo rice.End of story.

Na today patting don dey for Yan-sh?Noise-makers! Most of them sit abroad pushing and encouraging Nigerians to revolt and go on mass protest.U wanna protest? Then take ur fat ar-se to Nigeria and do that.Dont stay abroad and encourage people on nairaland to do what you all can not do.
Re: Official Reaction Of Nigerian Labour Congress To 2012 Budget Proposal by Nobody: 9:38am On Dec 16, 2011
i also do not like President goodluck but i think all the insults you guys are weilding at him are not worth it. for Heaven's sake, he's the presdent of the federal republic of Nigeria, (it doesnt matter if you voted for him or not)

such insults at a president; someone old enough to be your father really show that most people on nairaland insulting him to that point were raised in gutters (broken homes and dead homes)

What shall we say to these things

It hurts me so bad that no matter the anger we vent on here, the curses and swear we spit on GEJ, PDP and every evil Politician that has destroyed Nigeria, none of it will fix the problem.

Can we for once STOP TALKING AND JUST FIX THE PROBLEM.

NIGERIANS HOW DO WE FIX NIGERIA.

This is our country and everyone of us has equal right just as GEJ and his goons to also govern Nigeria.

I ASK AGAIN, NIGERIANS HOW DO WE FIX NIGERIA.

How about you looking for a solution,

Our leaders should be very careful as I don't see NLC erupting alone. Very soon you'd know there are things stronger than NLC in Nigeria because its very clear that the masses are angry and many would do so many things.

President Goodluck Jonathan should be ready to face it because, till den,

You spoke very well; brought out all the facts but concluded wrongly. We cannot just fold up our arms and allow them loot all we have. In fact what you suggested is what we have been doing. We allowed them get away with all the stealing and abuse in government. Now the stealing is not enough. Our own oil, they denied us the capacity to refine, because they want to make further billions from us. Our taxes they could not account for; the trillions from crude sales they embezzled; our borders they have managed for their pockets by giving selective import licenses and concessions to themselves and their cronies.

If they have managed our borders well, more of our youths will have jobs; but they allowed all sorts to be dumped on us by the countries of the worlds. As a consequence, our industries are dead. Simple policing with law and order they refused us; a working judiciary they also refused; our schools they destroyed so that our people will never be empowered while their own children they all train abroad.

What else must be do, than to allow them kill all of us.

I disagree with you on this, honestly. I think it is better when we meet them on the streets.

Truly lives may be wasted; but millions also have died as a result of their mis-governance. Methink it is better to die a brave man than to continue to die in cowardness as we have been dying. It is their wickedness that cause our average lifespan to be 47. Our people are dying in their droves as a result of the hardship in the land. Every stroke victim, every accident victim, every one that our failed hospitals could not cure of his sickness is killed by the criminals that rule us.

We must meet them on the streets before we all die. Meeting them on the streets, can create some accidental deaths, but it will save the millions that die as a result of the denials in the land. It will guarantee a better life for those that will live after.

What we should do is to ensure that after the confrontation, that we do not allow any member of the evil gang to come near our government. What we must do is to ensure that at the end of the fight, that  a true people's government is restored in our land.

That does not make them representatives for all. I never said strikes would not affect the country but who do NLC represent. If govt offered them some "palliative" relief they would call off strike and the rest of the populace continue to suffer. What we need is all sections, including those not represented come out to protests, that is when you can say the people have spoken. If non represented are on street, they would be more powerful than represented, because no one to buy over or negotiate with until demands are met.
Re: Official Reaction Of Nigerian Labour Congress To 2012 Budget Proposal by PointB: 12:35am On Dec 17, 2011
It is stu.pid threats of strikes and indeed senseless strike such as this one that NLC is planning that are actually responsible for sky high inflation. Immediately the strike commences, motorists react by pushing transport fare to roof, others join them in a chain reaction. Even when the cause of the strike is eventually addressed or removed, price generally does not come down.

At any rate I will watch on the sideline as 'poor masses' protest since they are the ones affected. I will also be praying for these 'poor masses' that God should deliver them from 'poverty' so that they don't become a recurring decimal at protest grounds. Amen.
