These things come work, i believe in them, the white men dreamt of their current countries before it became what it's today.
That is very true, but u forgetting that white man is not as selfish, greedy and of a bastard like the leaders that we have.
If it is the desire of Nigerians to erect gigantic and imposing concrete structures in our metro cities to give the impression of social development, then a couple of things need first to precede the realization of the desire. Here they are:
1. Invade another resourceful country and take over their financial market and influence their cultural ideology using cinema arts and music to inject propaganda.
2. Influence their political leadership, including sponsorship for candidates favoring Naira above their own local currency.
3. Use trade tarriffs to discourage and kill their agricultural output. but subsidize Nigerian farmers and sign trade agreements giving Nigeria exclusive or higher share of total food imports into that country.
4. Infiltrate their security and make it possible for crime to flourish but decry their leaders for violating human rights when criminals are punished. Also, re-orient the citizens view of their country. . to the extent that they see Nigeria and Nigerians as their only saviour against their own leaders.
My brothers and sisters, this is how the Western world operated to get what they have and become who they are today. If you like what you see in their country. . then instead of just copying their steel and concrete structures, lets practice their atrocities as well. . .on people of other countries that is!
