One of the main problems is because we have fucktards like Jonathan running the country.

Fucktards like him and his civil servant, pot-bellied, hippopotamus wife are too incompetent to even think of creating avenues for people to complain about civil servants. As a civil servant, as long as you know you will get away with whatever you do especially relating to customer services (as long as you don't give a bad one to a connected big man/woman) then you (especially if you are a product of a failed education system with little morals like most Nigerians) would take the piss, not give a shiit and treat people like animals.

The times I went to see the Ambassador at the embassy, by the time I came out? Jesus Lord, Father God, my arsse was clean. My arsse had never been that clean before. It was smelling like the rich wife of a Saudi billionaire. Cleaner than the desk of Obama in the Oval office. IT WAS WELL LICKED BY THE EMBASSY STAFF!

Dem see person wey get appointment with Ambassador, wey dey for im dairy, dem liiiiiicked my bum bum. I never knew Nigerians had that much courtesy.

When Nigerians think you have power and can report them, they will up their performance. They will not be abusing their power. But the fucktards like Jonathan that should care about that and see to it, don't give a shiiit because they don't care. They know it would never happen to them and their family. They are Big Men! Just like they know they can always fly to Germany for treatment, they don't have to use the junk hospitals they give Nigerians, so they don't care about improving the standard. But they want and make sure fucktards like Chinom are proud of Nigeria so they face no shame and can always tell their peers abroad that they are performing because Nigerians are happy and proud!

I see your point, but for me, the problem with Nigeria is the lack of good basic home training. The way manners are disregarded and the fact that people dont live by a personal moral code.

It ha more to do with upbringing than he president

How you been bro?

Reference: And are those who mess up the system not our (her) fathers, mothers, aunts, uncles, cousins, brothers, sisters, colleagues, friends, fellow compatriots of every class, tribe and tongue.

What has an innocent little green booklet with your serious looking face and details have to do with our collective failures. Do you destroy your toilet because it cannot flush.

This is the typical response of an indolent, self centred person, the likes that have brought this country to its knees. Does she know what it meant, what it took, what it cost in blood, sweat and tears to obtain and keep an american or canadian passport over two hundred years ago when the British were pursuing them from pillar to post.

Lazy McDonalds generation. Can't engineer nothing. Pathetic.

Afam4eva: it is utterly shameful to be a Nigerian in 2013. I could sense a deep anger and regret for God making that lady a Nigerian. She never asked for it but unfortunately she was placed in a place that have 1diots as leaders. I won't blame her if she burns her Nigerian passport. It's good riddance to bad rubbish.

Sagamite:

I think upbringing has less effect than culture on individuals.

It is the national culture that has the greatest impact on the moral code. Most human beings are really sheep and only know how to follow like mugus. No matter how much home training their parents give them, a larger fraction would be influenced by their environment, which can thwart majority of the values of their home bringing. Human beings are too reetarded to think, they would follow any fad that those they respect/admire teach them. For example many Nigerian parents in the UK can raise their wards to think homosexuality is wrong, but with the immense pressure and power popular culture (including so-called "stars" ) is forcing pro-homosexuality on everyone, you would see many Nigerian wards just follow and be pro-homosexuals. This pro-homosexuality is well-backed by the media, which even makes it more powerful in over-riding the home upbringing. The wards want to feel part of the popular and want to be accepted by the popular culture.

National culture can mainly be changed or set by the leaders, not followers. They are the ones that are most visible in regards of the values they espouse, they set the power structures and reward mechanisms, they promote the public images, and they help circulate inspirational stories. These are all levers of culture setting.

When a president can pardon a public disgrace like Alams, he is setting the values of society.

When a president gives national awards to criminals and nothing to those that are silently positive to society, he is setting the values of society.

When a president's government gives major contracts to criminals and corrupt people hencing enriching them, he is setting the values of society.

When a president opens the door of Aso Rock to convicted criminals like Bode George as guest, he is setting the values of society.

When a president can not set rules and structures that aid efficiency (e.g. having a complaint department for every civil service function), hence leaving people to behave as they wish, he is setting the values of society.

When the most prominent people and those whose so-called "success stories" you hear are shady people like Dan Etiti, Reuben Abati and Bello Adoke, he is setting the values of society.

The values of society this Silverback person is setting is "crime pays, is respectable and is rewarded". Majority of people would follow that value system because they don't have the powers to change it, majority are not intelligent enough or have the strong personality to challenge popular culture. The average human being is not a leader, they are followers. Their philosophy is "I no get heart to beat them, so I go join them". Worse is when the local media are to useless to challenge the values set by the president (especially when they are buyable with brown envelopes to help propagate the "positives" of the presidents approach). And other leaders like Pastors are happy to welcome the criminals in churches and pray for them, and even tell people to emulate them like one recently said to the congregation to emulate the jailed Ibori.

Furthermore, as long as this is the value system being set by the leaders for the society, majority of parents would not instil values that heavily differ and would make their kids uncompetitive in the society. They will teach them values that makes them succeed and rewarded in their society ESPECIALLY in a society with limited/tiny rewards (low alternatives) and where winner takes all like Ngieria.

You would hardly ever see all that presidential value setting in Western countries. Criminals are jailed, chastised and relegated to the background, that is why their culture is not as miasmic as Nigeria's.

Presidents are very powerful. Hitler got a whole nation to go out and kill innocent people and fight a stuupid war.

londoner: [b][/b]

Well we are describing the same thing, just at different stages.

If it was government alone, counteries that have sane and principled governments would not have any citizen who does not reflect its good values.

I dont disagree with what you are saying, but I think we under estimate parental stewardship.

Why would a man when he gets to adult age, not dine with thieves, if he has grown up seeing it?

Some even in the home.

I'm sure we all know, that you dont have to go as far as the president or the rich politician to see corruption.

It a way of life for many people in Nigeria, even children.....In fact in many cases if you are not corrupt when the opportunity arises for you to gain from it, your own family will tell you you are a fool.

I really doubt that our politicians were all honest men and women right up until the day they got into the corridoors of power.


They would have seen corruption way before that.

You are right, we are creatures of habit and we follow what we see most often, whther it is homosexuality or bribery etc. If people are following the dishonest way, its because that makes up the majoriy of what they have seen and heard, especially in their formative years.

It is everywhere you look....From the child, to the pupil, to the house help, to the lecturer, to the doctor to the president......All play their part and many feel overhwhelmed by the EXPECTATION of corruption in all its forms and go against a mighty sea to walk the honest path.

If people had examples of honesty and uprightness in the overwhelming majority of those around them

A person like this with a poor education and poverty that has affected the nourishment and development of his brain will never get it.

The cretin does not know why he is "paying hard" for his MBs.

Apart from his poverty, it is also because of his government and nation that could not give a shiiit about him as I stated below in an earlier post and the Oyinbo stated by saying Nigerians want 100% of everything. What Nigeria mainly offers is negativity in your life.



In GREAT Britain, you will never be paying hard. Why?

1) Because you are richer.

2) Because the government gives a shiiit about you. No company can come and be charging you money anyhow they feel. The government would be on their case. They have set up structures, systems and processes to make life easy, fair and just for its people.

They have set up bodies like the Office of Fair Trading (OFT), the Competition Commission (CC), Office of Communications (Ofcom) and Ombudsman Services (with an office for Telecoms). Note these are examples for the Telecoms industry, other bodies would exist for other industries. With a combination of these bodies, dem no born any company or industry well to think they can just come to GREAT Britain and milk the people. The government would be on their case like hawks and eagles ready to tear them apart. GREAT Britain is not like your Nigerian Shithole where the government officials are probably part of the shareholders telling them to finish you because they want 100%.

3) Apart from government establishments, there will also be numerous Consumer Advocacy bodies (like "Which?" or the Citizens Advice Bureau) arguing for the citizens and pressuring the firms to reduce their charges.

4) The industry body of the firms itself would also be the one telling them to reduce your cost and increase the quality of service because that is the culture.

The difference between GREAT Britain's social philosophy and the shithole called Nigeria is:

"GREAT Britain does everything possible to make its citizens life as easy as possible without breaking capitalism rules too much. Shithole Nigeria does everything possible to make its citizens life as frustrating as possible without breaking human rights laws too much."

But this person is proud of Nigeria.

"AHHH, WE ARE GIIIAAAANT OF AFRICA"

Cretin!

What a moronic way of reasoning from a prisoner of mental slavery! Even if you burn your birth certificate issued for you in Nigeria here who cares? You can equally burn your certificates obtained from Nigerian institution if any, all well and good. Nobody is holding you back from going to canada your country of servitude where you are regarded not even as fourth class citizen but as nonentity. The Lord shall return the captivity of Nigeria and mine shall be better in Nigeria my land of unlimited and unrestricted freedom.
