I understand it is sweet to dream of the democracies in both South Africa and South Korea that led to President's being removed and jailed. But dreaming of that happening in contemporary Nigeria could be Malaria dream. Here's why Written by Julius Bokoru Cc lalasticlala, mynd44, seun |

Op one thing you fail to mention is tribalism, that is the worst of it, a northerner we tell you if we impeach Buhari his vice Yoruba will now become president the same applied to other regions just imagine how difficult Goodluck find it to become president after the death of Yardua. Nigeria are not main to be together if you ask me because we see others as enemy just for instance south Africa you mention have Zuma as president who is from Zulu tribe the biggest tribe in South Africa yet he was forced to step down by his party that have Zulu majority and succeeded by his vice from Venda tribe one of the smallest tribe in South Africa, an average south africa dont know the tribe of who is there presidents only what they want are good governance to all citizen. This cannot happen in Nigeria 3 Likes |

If you dare impeach him, majority of the poor masses in the north will die in vain due to anger, violence and hatred. Op you don't understand, tribalism is killing us. Even the Yoruba will definitely fight the innocent igbos and accused them of Impeaching buhari. Guy this country is in big mess. 1 Like

It is NOT easy to impeach a President in any country. Pls stop oversimplifying issues. It should NOT be easy to impeach a sitting President. What most countries are doing lately is making Presidents pay for their crimes after they leave office. |

@op you have raised some important points but there is a key difference between all prosperous democratic nations and Nigeria, our TAX to GDP ratios. Nigeria has a low tax to gdp ratio of 6% whereas South Africa's is 26% and South Korea's is 33%. What this implies is that Nigerians pay the least amount of taxes proportional to our income. He who pays the piper dictates the tune. If Nigerians paid more in taxes, we would naturally hold our leaders to account. Why we do not care much about government stealing is because it is oil money and not contributed by the masses. Nothing unifies a nation like taxes. Issues of tribalism, religious difference take a back seat when our contributed money is being stolen. Take for instance, a thief goes to the market to steal the goods of the market people at night but is unfortunately caught. What do you think will happen to the thief? Yet when our leaders steal our oil money no one seems to care because in reality, we don't feel we own the oil. Misuse our money and the situation becomes a different matter. 6 Likes 1 Share |
