Which youths? Cos the Nigerian youths I know of are not prepared to do so. Also, we Nigerians have a way of betraying each other.
I would relate to u an instance while revolution can never happen when u ve a docile populace divided along ethnic and religious lines. U could see that when Charly boy led "resume or resign protest, it was disrupted by persons from a section of the country. When a political officer holder steals, he gets support from people from the same part of the country rising tonhis defence.
Also, just like where I worked before, we had a very bad and exploitative management and all d workers agreed to lay our complaints. We were to gather for a meeting and at d end of it agreement was reached that all junior staff wud be present on d D-Day. Could u imagine , d ones that often complains d most backed off, a few others were walking behind and never wanted their faces to be identified before d management as being in against d mgt. That is how d masses are, we all are not prepared to make d move to face those bastards in power. Remember 2Face backed out of a protest he agreed to take part if not lead. And do u know what, the political elite knows that nothing wud ever happen that is y they keep doing what they do even worse. At best, just a weak protest and that is all. When u talk of protests we talk of a shut down of d whole nation.

It seems like you have lost all hope bro.. we must believe we can change things

Before things went even this bad, I had forseen the future of this doomed nation many years back.
You sound idealistic not realistic.
Look, even the politicians know that there is no hope. They dont have hope in d country they govern themselves.
If u ve seen my previous comments I ve consistently given reasons for the hopeless situation in Nigeria. U can not do same thing over and over again and expect a different outcome. No hope bro lets face the fact.
Above all we blacks ve a problem. Angola so rich in oil yet corrupt. When the blacks took over from d whites in Former Rhodesia now Zimbabwe it was a prosperous nation. South Africa is what it is cos of d white minority.
I am igbo and to some extent want d disintegration of Nigeria but I fear that many problems in Nigeria wud still happen in Biafra. Look at South Sudan even after it broke away from Sudan in the north.
No hope for Nigeria and Africa at large.
Look at how thousands risk their lives daily on d Mediterranean to cross into Europe.

I strongly recommend that Nigeria and all African countries should become an oversea territory of the US and progressive western countries especially the Scandanavian countries. They ve the best form of govt far more than the US and UK

The NASS is one of the major cankerworms eating Nigerians destiny. Do away with them and we have light, good roads, quality schools, standard health facilities, etc.
Exactly what I ve been saying. They are a huge financial burden to this doomed nation.
No hope bro
