Point of correction!
Direct your anger and whatsoever to nigerian leaders from 1960 till date....chop and clean mouth leaders.

I thought I was the only one that has thought of this, it's actually depressing.
It also beats me we import so much, we import fuel, even as an oil producing country.

Ziemonadex:
Shame on you @op...

"Apple, Microsoft,Google, Facebook and Amazon make up 40% of
the weight, or $2.15 trillion in market cap." of US NASDAQ100 stocks.
it's amazing that market Capitalization of just 5 US firms is almost 4times our GDP (568.51 billion US dollars )of our country Nigeria.

Shame on u Nigeria

Our problem as a nation is we lack wealth creators only looters.imagine Texas has over 20oil refineries all own by the private sector. while Nigeria every thing must be done by Government. even with looted money our people can not create wealth with all this loot.

TheGoodJoe:


[b]Actually, it falls back on the government. A lot of countries that strive economically do so because their government backs them to grow.

You can see the recklessness from the recent budget. The government pays politicians huge sum of money, takes care of their housing, pays their electricity bills and still spends 3.6 billion naira on cars for these people.

While brilliant minds in the country are left with nothing. Fashola increased the power bills in the Nation where things get tougher every day.

Imagine if the country invest 10 billion naira in a well supervised and subsidized microfinance scheme.

A lot of smart minds can work to revolutionize the system. Instead we get mediocre plans like five thousand naira a month for people. How can such help with the falling economy.

The smart minds in America thrive because the people understand the impact of good governance. Our people will continue praising looters who spray money on them while the country loses economic strenght.[/b]

show me your friends and i will tell you who you are. a country can not give good leaders more or less that they produce them.
Nigeria is bad not becos of bad leaders but .becos of bad society that's keeps produce less qualified people as leaders

example.. wats stop our elite class to cooperate and influence their political class who are their friends to give the necessary political and moral support to go into electric power supply .we have the capacity to solve our power crises. but we lack entreprenuers who are the most important factor in production who will mobilieze (including the political
class)and organise other factors of production.
thats why we have iron ore but no functioning steel industry.gas but no power,coal no minning,lands but still import foods, crude oil but we still import fuel.

in US people lobby their government to make right polices not to assist them in looting

Imagine Boeing aircraft company found in 1920 by williams Boeing becoming the world largest aircraft company .something as complex as aircraft but it was started by and individual not the government.
We are mentally lazy.

My brother the government doesn't encourage innovation. You shouldn't be comparing a country with epileptic power supply to a country that was industrialised decades before Nigerian independence. (not an excuse for innovation but back to my first point)
