mrvitalis: You post is self-contradictory, what are you talking about? Super eagles have been able to win competitions because acceptance is based on merit, don't you think the civil service, and agencies such as the NNPC & CBN would also flourish if selection of workforce is based on merit too? 3 Likes |

Most people who commented on this thread did so with more of emotion than logic, many betrayed their frustration with Nigeria, thereby derailing the purpose of the thread. 1) No system of governance or government policy is perfect. 2) In a highly heterogeneous society like Nigeria, there is need to promote and ensure fairness/ equity. 3) The quotal system came about as an attempt to ensure fairness but like any other thing we copied from saner climes, we abused it. 4) quotal system has its merits and demerits. 5) There are two forms of equity; Vertical equity and horizontal equity. 6) Vertical equity is about unequal treatment of people who are not equal ,while horizontal equity is equal treatment of people who are equal. 7) Without deliberate policy of these forms of equity, where its most expedient, it will be difficult to achieve a Nation. Already great divisions in the country will be glaringly obvious and magnified. |

Many people don't even know that representation in the National assembly and the United Nation is by quota system! In Nigeria, every state is to produce 3 senators. Why can't each state conduct a senatorial election in which the first best 3 candidates (solely based on merit) are picked to represent their state? Let's take IMO State as an example,if we just elect the first best 3 candidate as senators, its possible they all come from one town, let's say Mbaise. However, by dividing the State into Okigwe, Owerri and Orlu senatorial districts in the spirit of equity, different zones are given the chances to be elected senators. |

dom: Tokenism sacrifices merit anywhere in the world where it is practiced, whether in the "civilized world" or backward Africa. The main reason people in the west don't talk about it about it openly is to avoid entering trouble for "hate speech". |

Ngasky: Russia does not look like a proper capitalist country, but instead similar to China - something in between Capitalism to Socialized State Capitalism. The same way there could be a goldman sach in a capitalist state is the same way they could have sibneft in a socialist or quasi socialist, the only difference is that China will hang you for corruption. |

blues20: Even the so called regional system is part of the unintelligent solutions brandished about by individuals with little or no clue how the real world works. Havent we practiced regional government before? Did it stop the massive corruption scandal of the western region in 1965? Didn't you hear that the Kaduna Nzeogwu coup was motivated by wide spread corruption in the polity at the time? Was Nigeria not under regional governance then? The solution to Nigeria's problem is Meritocracy. A system of administration where you are defined not by your tribe but the contents of your head and character. Under such administration, there will be no room for a militant that cant spell his name to have a say in the national polity. If we do things by merit, we know the two tribes that will hijack every facet of our economy by default. |
