It is well established that the past generation of Nigerian leaders (and the current generation) have woefully failed Nigeria. They have established a culture of corruption, mediocrity, and have set a terrible foundation upon which Nigeria's economy and government now lies. Now to the question: will the new generation Nigerians, say those who are in their early to mid-thirties, continue this same culture of corruption if they assume an elected office? Who will break this deadlock of "chopping government money without doing anything for the people?" Which generation is poised is to restructure our government and get past tribalism, mediocrity, bad governance, and reform our judiciary? Which generation will fix our electricity crisis, develop our infrastructure such as expressways, and our water system? Which generation will help to fully establish the principles of true federalism that our nation needs desperately. Please share your thoughts.

Aluta continua!

A corrupt free country would start from the home,to the church/mosque down to the mkt/school/office.

The popular street slogan is "the end justifies the means" . . .No one wants to know how many heads rolled so long as you give them a few pennies,all's well.

A corrupt free Nigeria would start the day parents stop failing in their duties as parents,stop mounting unecessary pressure on their wards to "go out and hit big like others" and not look the other way when their kids are erring.

Like Charity,Corruption begins at home.

isn't already happening.......hmmm

yes @ topic.

Some will some won't, so it is a yes/no to me or it depends

Corruption isn't a 'culture' but a by-product of our system of government.. Change the system and corruption would be a thing of the past.

Of course they will continue, because the corruption comes from the culture of the people. Their is no culture of corruption there is corruption in the culture. Civilize your culture and the corruption will end, and or at least subside down to a point in which the nation will be able to function properly. All people obtain a bit of corruption in their culture, but not to the point in where it becomes so much so an integral part of the culture that law and order, and general federal or social function can not function properly, such as is the case in Nigeria and many other African nations.
