How Do We Stop This Re-branding movement?

To d poser
We cannot stop the re-branding but we need to stop something more important: the OBJs, the Yaraduals, the David Marks, the Abdulsalams, etc. Cos these ppl are the Nation's problem. There is no amount of branding or rebranding that can be done on Nigeria that will work. In fact I am ashamed of this Country. How can we  have a country that is governed by criminals and hope things will work. These ppl know that they do not have all it takes to govern a nation like Nigeria. In fact they dont have what it takes to govern a local government, so they take things by force. There are ppl in this country who knows better (the Nigerian obamas). i am really sad to call Yaradua my president. As a muslim, an handicap shldnt lead and Yaradua himself knows this. May Allah forgive him and make do a u-turn and change for better.

lead the world ke!!! make we see now.

By the way, i didn't write the piece, i just cited it from another website.

I now actually get the joke, YAR A'CLUELESS  and his PDP govt are trying to do REBREEDING.

As you know they will continue to BREED from one generation of
FAILED LEADERSHIP to the other.

I hope you guys get what they are trying to do.
GOOD PEOPLE, GREAT COUNTRY,  LOOTING RECYCLING LEADERS.

I have no obsession with YAR A'CLUELESS other than that I am so angry that NIGERIA IS NOT MOVING. our so called first graduate President, he said he will be servant leader, rule of law , 7 point agenda , vision 2020,  honest government etc.

1. Now, let us start with his graduate, does he fare better that a failed GCSE student?.

2. Servant leadership- what exactly is he leading ? - OBJ  may be a grarrison commander but at least he lead in a way. He assemble some technocrat to solve the banking situation etc

3. Rule of law,- really?, when he cladestinely removed Ribadu from EFCC sending him to college under a false pretence and appointing someone else to his office while at college.

4. 7 point agenda- once comedian start to make something a joke, it is indeed a joke. The joke in town is now let him do 1 point agenda. Do you know the whole 7 point agenda, if you do, please name them, if you finish naming them, please tell me after 2 years in office which of them has he carried out.

5. Vision 2020 - Nigeria is presently about 40 or 50 leading economy in the world, 2020 is barely 11 years from here and having wasted 2 years, election campaign to start next year, you sincerely think that we will not move southwise rather upward to 30something

6. When the guy was campaigning in April 2007 before the election he said that ' he will declare emergency on power within 100 days of assuming office' , we are now well over 750 days he still hasn't done so, on the most important problem of our times.

7. HONESTY. The guy is very sick, and obvious, and he is in denial. If one is very fit mentally but unfit physically it will affect productivity.  I am not a doctor but I am connvinced that he is not fit physically and  mentally (like most of our former President who are not fit mentally). The first attribute of a leader or a good one is to be honest with people as much as possible. If he is doing his job he may succeed in masking his illness BUT one brought the question about the other.

If Nigeria is YAR A'DO NOTHING  father's business he will never employ someone like himself.

I hope you understand my anger now rather than obsession,
YAR A'DO NOTHING  and the PDP are just bunch of a A DO NOTHING  PARTY.


Borrowing your signature, these guys are agrressive minority who imposed themselves upon us through family and military connections. Anyone can take that to the bank and cash it.

 

dora can answer this

After reading the first post, I have decided to re-brand myself.

But one must ask, from what physical and spiritual location should true rebranding begin? In sweeping a room, we usually start from within and push the dirt outward. From where do we begin sweeping Nigeria clean? From government or from the masses? If it is from government, then FMIC should not be the one holding the broom. That would amount to turning the broom against itself and we all know that can’t happen. But even though aunty Dora has been the one holding this broom all this while on behalf of government, lets not rush to condemn the effort. Technically the sweeper cannot expect to rid the room of rubbish by sweeping inward. But it is far better to wield the broom than to hang it up. The Honourable Minister should therefore be seen more as a drummer responding to the rhythmic diktat of history than as the originator of the rebranding machine. No matter how you look at it, rebranding is the most logical thing the FMIC can possibly do right now considering the inclinations of the government in power. I challenge anyone to either cite a more logical policy for the moment or move for the outright scraping of FMIC as an unnecessary government ministry. Of course being the most logical thing to do now doesn’t make it effective. But it is always good to put as many pegs as possible into their respective holes. And that is what the Information ministry is doing. What more can a contestably good heart do in philistine working conditions?

lets promote a "GOOD PEOPLE BAD GOVERNMENT" campaign instead , lets highlight the good things nigerian people have achieved and lets  push a campaign to expose the dirty deals and nefariuos activities of our bad leaders.


who's with me lets design and publish a pdf magazine like forbe's magazine that highlights and showcases the top most corrupt and imbecile leaders in nigeria.

Abeg help spearhead the campaign from outside 9ja cos If u dey 9ja expect Nigeria Police  and SSS for your doorstep.

have you ever heard the story of the boy who cried wolf?  the whole "rebranding" is a joke.  I am an American living here in Nigeria and from my personal experiences in Lagos- Nigeria is crying wolf.
