the number 1 priority of any government is to create prosperity for her citizens. The main reason the government can't meet up with its recurrent expenditure is the size of its budget. 9 trillion naira for almost 200 million people is a huge joke, that is 45k per person in a year lets ask ourselves what can 45 k do for a citizen in a year? I'm not exonerating financial irresponsibility on the part of the government but lets face it we wont go very far on a lean budget irrespective of how judicious it is spent.

Nigeria's problems are beyond redemption. I find it difficult to believe this country can work in this present setting.

For anything serious to happen in nigeria there has to be a complete reorganisation and overhauling of the ways things are done. With the present structure and system, hope for a better nigeria is as hopeless as the word sounds.

Without restructuring or referendum or division, nothing will work. Can some1 please tell me why the statement "the unity of Nigeria is non-negotatiable" is so often referred to by our leaders? If a significant population of a country feels they want to go, the right thinking mind would call for a referendum and see if that's possible. If the result shows that most people want to leave why should people be forced to live together? A house divided against itself cannot stand.

To hope for a better nigeria as it is now is to waste a lifetime waiting. It's sad to say but unfortunately it's the truth. We need to tell our consciences the truth. I am close to 40 and I have not seen anything good in this country. We can't hope in inaction. Faith without work is dead but we keep repealing d same thing election after election.

The current struction of Nigeria is a fraud and once it can't be restructured nothing will work.

Its just lack of proper planning, as a state you don't just run around employing people without planing how the generated funds in that state will pay their salaries...

We don't have proper data of how much is generated cos of corruption
We don't have proper data of which labour force is needed so u don't employ without sense just because u are known by a politician....

They don't just employ abroad, they employ people based on the ratio of people u are to service and that gives a rough idea of how much can be generated and how much is going to salary....
Take doctors for example, the standard is 1000 person per doctor according to the WHO standard....

if a state has real statistics of how much people it has per state, rate of sickness and paitient visit including payment and above all put corruption under check, the right amount of doctors can be employed based on estimated generated revenue over the past years....and salaries would be paid on time...
.not that u just want to wait and use oil money alone to pay all the salary of all civil servant...it's an annoyingly stupid way of planning..

Failure in number 2 actually leads many youths to engage in countering number 1 (herdsmen, Nigerian delta militants, armed robbery, suicide etc).

Which citizens hardly pay taxes..if there's one thing the government know how to enforce ..it's tax collection..

Even people that don't have jobs still pay VAT indirectly when they purchase goods and services... All companies and employers pay their tax steady, including education tax, withholding...it's will b shocking for you to know that Nigeria's tax is covers almost 60% of our budget, so u know our bad our leaders steal our oil money.... And still have to borrow...

so if the workers are not working, don't you think there will be chaos

These workers also generate revenue for the government!

Can these governors be happy doing what they are doing if they are not paid

Cos they are not interested. We are only mere voters.
Next time vote credible people with history of helping people and stop voting in ppl cos they have money.

Stop living in a fool's paradise

Before one gets to the level of being a possible winner of a gubernatorial election in Nigeria, he cannot be credible

Even if you were good, your godfather will make u look otherwise

If there's no revolution in Nigeria, we will continue running around in circle

Any Government that want to rule at state or federal level should know that payment of Government workers should be his no 1 priority because through them the market woman, small and large scale business owner will earn their daily need and by the time Government fail to pay the salary or make half payment and increase the rate of poverty and deprived many Nigerians access to right life. I wish senate can wake up in a day in Nigeria and sponsor bill that says that says Not until all Government workers both in states and Federal level get their salaries.....No political office holder will get paid then I know our senators and other legislative arm of Government are working for the sake of Nigerians well being. But they will be sponsoring unnecessary bill that has no positive impact on Nigerians. What a useless and wasted 4 years of Saraki lead 8th senate and Dogara in lower chamber....Saraki lead Senate is The worst senate in the history of Nigeria. God bless me, God bless you, God bless Nigerians, God bless Nigerian.

Salary issue has eaten so deep into the Nigerian labour system.
Even privately owned firms think it's right to owe salaries.
It's just sad sha .

Really? how can the Economy Grow? how can people pay their Taxes, Taxes to pay for security, how can people Acquire properties let alone security of properties?

what does welfare of the citizens mean? if paying their salaries isn't welfare of citizens?


So how does payment of salaries not Really number one priority for Government? if you don't pay my salaries how can i work to protect you as a police man?

This kinda mentality is why Government gets away with a CRIMINAL act like not paying workers

When you spend so much campaigning for election.once elected you begin to come up with white elephant project that you know will not go beyond the signing of MOU.

Your sponsors are on you to pay back.. Even Banks..
What do you do.. Any money at your disposal is used first to settle your gbese..even at the expense of state workers and pensioners

Until we say no to all this politician parading themselves as the elixir to the countries age long problems.. We will not move forward

It is not a curse. We have a long way to go. Prayer alone can't fix this. Nairaland badmouthing and cursing can't fix this

Only we can fix this.. A revolution? Maybe... But I am of the opinion we are okay with status quo.So let's stop whining!!!

We really not ready for change. We are not ready

It is going to continue like this..

Buhari,Saraki,Dankwabo,Atiku etc is not the solution

The over 180 million Nigerians is the solution

My tots...
