PDP

PDP

PDP

LEADERSHIP: this we lack at all level of gov't in this country

MILITARY HEAD OF STATES: IBB takes the larger share here, infact, he was the architect of our 'modern day nigeria's problem'

OBJ:he contributed alot to our problems cos he knew our problems and solutions , but refused to solve them

GEJ:he dosn't know what is the problem and cannot identify solution when he sees one(cluelessness).

PDP: this defines, dictates and carries all the problems....it is an embodiment of our problems.

Nigerians and their tribal sentiments are the major problem of Nigeria, followed by the Judiciary because had it been the judiciary is corrupt free then corruption will be a thing of the past because when you thief you go to jail and spend a minimum of 25yrs there with all your assest seized, no one would like to steal that much.

black_beau: Nigeria's problem is me,you,our leaders and our Mindset.
Mindset: a literate mind cant harbor such such barbaric sin as most Nigerians. Around 250 B.C, out of ignorance the Romans destroyed the Carthaginans and the massive civilisation they were able to achieve, as revenge. The only way the uneducated know to seek redress is by violence and destruction. Whether we like it or not, and yet in this computer age, we have Barbarians among us of dark, primitive mindset as bad as to indulge in any hideous crime, they dont care.

Our leaders:they bask in our ignorance. Besides, Gej is as ignorant as majority Nigerians. He dosent have the interlectual capacity to manage this country, big cluelessness i say. I know, in time a wiser generation will come with literacy. Then, everybodi eyes go dey shine like torch,the govt will be very careful in making any decisions, like it is america. Then, when they cant brainwash anybody into picking up arms for them because even alaye sef go know as e dey go. Then, there will be corruption but only the smart will rob, like it it is in america.

Find Out!:
1)Leadership. Pure and simple. Be he a xtian or muslim, northerner or southerner, old or young, from ACN (without Tinubu's control) or CPC or even PDP (if such a candidate can ever be allowed to emerge from that cesspit of corruption and violence), as long as he knows that his allegiance is FIRST AND FOREMOST to the NIGERIAN PEOPLE, knows WHAT he's supposed to do, HOW he's supposed to do it, WHEN he's supposed to it and WHO he should delegate (if neccessary) to do it, then believe me, corruption, tribalism, religious bigotry, insecurity e.t.c. will cease to exist like they never happened. Of course not everybody will be happy, since some people derive joy only from chaos and sadness, but at least those unhappy with the wave of change originating from the President's desk & sweeping across the nation, will be powerless to stop it.


Those of you saying amalgamation, stop deceiving yourselves and looking for what may appear to be the easy way out, but is actually the hard way out. This country is not too big and not too diverse to be EFFECTIVELY governed by one person. Almost all the tribes in nigeria are already too interconnected, too intertwined to break up. CNN's popular description of Nigeria as "almost equally split between a muslim north and christian south" is not entirely correct. We don mix pass that one. All we need is re-sensitization and someone bold enough to whip senses into the heads of troublemakers from whatever tribe. I assure you, there'll be peace. Once upon a time, Jos was joyous and peaceful, Kaduna was quiet, Kano was all about commerce. Of course, there must have been undertones of jealousy and hate and bigotry, but the atmosphere of security at the time, relatively low unemployment rate compared to now, didn't permit anyone to mess up. Those who did were promptly dealt with (the small pockets of riots which broke out and were effectively quelled in the 80s, early to late 90s).
Now why is the violence looking like its impossible to stop? the answer is simple: those who should stop it (the politicians and public office holders) are benefiting from the divide and crisis so they are/ were reluctant to stop it. I used "were" because now, as will always happen with most evil plans, it appears to have gone over and beyond the control of the originators.

My opinion.


Sensible, concise and so on point its scary. Big ups!!!

Leadership is one of Nigerian biggest problem. With good leadership, corruption will be reduced, people will be afraid to commit crimes. what is the essence of law when offenders are not punished? Good leadership brings about good follower-ship. so lets pray for good leaders. leaders like Rochas Owelle that have conscience - he shares it 50 -50. not the greedy ones that will take 90% and leave 10% for the public.

k2039:

As much as I wont want Nigeria to break up, ethnic bigotry has been a big issue with the country. This is one reason why we have a big problem with leadership in the nation.

E.g: Notherners clamouring for a nothern president irrespective of wether he is the best man for the job or not.
sori, my reply is belated. U are 100% right!

But what i want u to understand is that; our heterogeneity has been our driving force. Only God knws what this country wld have looked like without it. We have somalia more than 95% muslims and speaks somali language...what is their fate today? Rwanda, 89% xtains and, huti and tutsi are same language with jst little difference.....we all knw what went down dere. Also, liberia, sierre leonne, congo...we have problems in such places despite their little differences compare to ours, and stil they cant find peace.

I dont want to blame it on amalgamation cos it was destined to happen. The tribalism and religious bigotry u see today in our politics was used by our leaders as a method to achieve 'divide and rule' tactics.....u see why we should blame the leadership for our woes.....


Thank

Slizbeat: Apart from the boko haram menace that has claimed most of the deaths in 2012, that of crashes has also joined. Just the last half of the year 2012, nigeria has recorded 4 crashes. That of DANA airline killing 158 on board and over 40 on ground, Oil company Helicopter killing some foreign Investors and Oil Mogul, private jet of taraba state governor Danbaba Suntai leaving him Brain-damaged and yesterday's air mishap at bayelsa killing former NSA rtd. Gen. Andrew Owoye Azazi and Executive and first christian governor of kaduna state, Patrick Ibrahim Yakowa among Others. Now in your own views, what actually is the problem? Is it PDP? Is it ACN? Is it the North? Is it the South? Is it the East? Is it the West? Is it 1914 Amalgamation? Is it 1967 civil war? Is it the sins of the Nation? Is it GEJ? Is it OBJ? Is it Buhari? Is it Me? grin Is it the Pastors(those in disguise) and the judges? But on a serious Note, is much, what do you think?




hahahahhaha....wat a funny question
well in my won point of view==Nigerian problem is noting for Greedyne and loting of money.....let goverment provide for us or better lets divide........lol......hate muslims

The problem with Nigeria is Nigerians. After all, there is no country without the citizens. As long as most Nigerians don't want to wake up, our country will continue to remain a hot mess.
