"I
think the country and the Norwegian taxi
passengers are best served if I'm the prime
minister and not a taxi driver."
Impressive. I like the response above. Shows he's intelligent. However, our politicians no send dat level o. Na to amass oyel moni, inflate contracts, withdraw from CBN take campaign and rigging tins. I'm sure they must have started amassing funds for 2015 by now.

Was listening to this news some minutes ago on Rhythms 93.7, its interesting how the prime minister wants to investigate and know the plight of his people and what they think about his administration
Wished our leaders can learn from this...

It was very easy for the Norwegian Prime Minister to pull that stunts on his people because the security is not as worse as we have here. With Boko haram going on killing spree and kidnapping becoming a legal job in Nigeria, I doubt if a Councillor would try that let alone Uncle Jona himself.

That's is a lidtening Government.
That is a government that works.


Not the Sit tight leaders that wants to loot the coffers of our treasury dry, not the leaders that's participate in Crude-oil theft.

This is why Western worlds see true Development.
This is the true definition of Servant-Leader.. Not until we begin to get people that are genuinely intrested in leading and not intrested in the gains and benefits attached to leading, the might not know the true meaning of "TRUE DEVELOPMENT"

Our leaders are Arrogant, Proud and Pompous and only enrich themselves with public funds. Till the day where a Senator would be paid next to nothing or the president's office doesn't have salary and allowances attached to it, till that day, political office would remain too attractive and would attract majorly thieves who seek only to enrich themselves..

If you ask my opinion.. I think if you are a wealthy man and you have made enough money doing private works and decided to rule your country.. I don't think you should be paid for ruling your country, I think its a rear privilledge to do so..
But what do we have, we see very wealthy people aspire for office and embezzle more funds while in office. Money they can never finish spending in their life time and the life time of their childrens children.. That's the mentallity and attitude we have to wealth in our country. True wealth as a leader is not about how much you stash away in swiss bank accounts or launder abroad. True wealth of a leader is how much impact you made. How many lives you touched as a leader, what you are gon be remembered for long after you are gone, the legacy you leave behind after your tenure, How well you imprint your name in the Sands of time, your achievements and land strides. Your anticidents and stands on National issues..

Can a Nigerian leader ever Drive a Taxi for same reason this Norwegian PM did?

Your guess is as Good as mine.

Goodmorning and prosperous Week ahead to every Nairalander.

Nigeria MUST be Great weather they want it or not.

Wow, it almost seem like Norway is virtually crime free for a prime minister to step out in public without an escort.

When will Nigeria attain this level of well being??

Re: Norwegian Prime Minister Works As A Taxi Driver by Emperor007: 10:51am On Aug 12, 2013
I'm not surprise at all, their ( Norwegian ) orientation is one of the best on earth.

We really have a long way to go in this country.

I was shocked at the car Norwegians use on my first visit, and my wife got more shocked when We visited Germany. Long story short, when I told people back home here ( in Nigeria ) the most expensive car that very few people use in both countries ( the states visited - Stavanger and Hannover ), some Nigerians responded by telling me, they ( Germans and Norwegians ) don't have money and can't afford expensive cars.

Our orientation and the way we think is not encouraging.

Note: Norway is presently the most progressed country on earth and the best place to be a mother on this planet.

I am just trying to imagine GEJ pulling that off in a Lagos Taxi. His ADC would wear fake beards and sit in the front seat. About 100 SSS Agents dressed as tomato sellers,agbero etc filling up about 20 vehicles both in front and at the back of the 'Presidential Taxi'.The conversation goes thus in the taxi:

GEJ: Oga, where?

PASSENGER: Allen Avenue

GEJ: #whispers into ADC's ear to ask how much the fare could be# #ADC looks puzzled#

PASSENGER: How much na?

GEJ: I have set up a committee to look into it

PASSENGER:

Norwegians are smart folks. The future of its citizens( born and yet to be born) is almost assured of good life with the government saving about €500 billion for coming generations.
The number one country in marine engineering does not show any air of arrogance as well.
