I do not agree that Nigeria is a failed state; we are not on the way to being a failed state either. ``We may not have done well but to say that we are a failed state is going to the extreme of it and I disagree completely with that,'' No doubt the country had challenges but am optimistic that with the right political will the challenges would be surmounted.

I strongly agree with Mark. With the right political will, all challenges will be surmounted.

Lack of political will is prevailent in most African Nations,Which Nigeria is not an exception. So if that is a major indices, then Africa is a failed continent.

And you do not see that lack of political will has domiciled too many African countries in the bottom rung of Human development indexes?
And you do not see Nigeria lurching dangerously towards anarchy and genocide daily because of this lack of political will?
No one prays for anarchy yet everyday life in Nigeria keeps mirroring the movie 'Hotel Rwanda' with tick of the hands of time
Pray to whatever you believe in that those movie characters do not become real

Ironically, Mr David Mark is right.

Nigeria is not a failed state but Nigeria is a state with failed leaders like David Mark, etc.

Mind you, ave not said that all is well with Nigeria.most nations are passing through similar problems we are currently facing and they are yet to collapse. I have a strong believe that we will come out of this challenges stronger than we have ever been.
