Nigeria has a class of people often identified as "stakeholders," "political chieftains," "prominent Nigerians."

They include current and past presidents, governors, ministers, commissioners, legislators, government-favored businessmen and women, local government chairmen, and party executives. They are routinely serenaded and garlanded at public events. Their hirelings often tell us that these officials are political icons.

They're not just superb leaders, they are - they and their spokesmen tell us - geniuses who have "totally transformed their states and redefined the art of governance." This breed love to collect national honors, however devalued.

They treasure picking up such hollow prizes as "legislator of the year," even when they hardly know how to spell the word bill, or "best performing governor," even though their states look like advertisements for the Dark Ages, tiny portraits of hell on earth.

Are all Nigerian not a stakeholder on this country.

What makes some so special and government even make it official coz some people are better than other.

Is there no equality in Nigeria?

Do America have prominent americans?
Do britain have prominent britons?
Do Germany have prominent Germans?
Do Japan have prominent Japanese?
