For Nigeria it will take 10 years and multiple political parties campaigning with it.... What a country!

The product of challenges and difficulties equal competence. We are a nation that abhors challenges and sacrifice competence so our product is difficulties. A simple equation. A nation where everyone depends on government for everything will never get government to do anything.

If Nigerians want to see progress they have to start taking responsibility. Out of the 5 million released for the reconstruction, Americans will probably have paid 3.5 million in taxes and levies and another 1 million in bonds.... how will you not act fast after collecting peoples sweat. In Nigeria 2.9 million will have come from the Shell oil fields of Bonga and another 2 million from the Agip gas fields. Since you did not work for it, neither did you know when or how the funds were generated and collected you cannot make any demand. You are at their mercy.

There is a big difference between salary and gift. One is mandatory, the latter is indiscriminate. And there lies the difference. Nigerians are not responsible enough to enjoy the kind of society we desire. If your dad still feeds you, it is one thing to demand a Ferrari, it is quite another to demand for a gold painted Ferrari for Christmas.

If we want to see such stuff happening in Nigeria we need to leave our comfort zones of big oil, free allocations, ridiculous subsidies, overbloated government, red tape and patronage and start paying for the country we want. To do this we need to restructure and there the matter ends.... we are not ready....so we will never see a road reconstructed in five days despite our unending disasters.

Globemoney, when will Willie Obiano repair 100ft road linking Nkwo Nnewi that was destroyed by erosion 6 months ago?

When will your Obiano leave his ogogoro bottle and repair the road leading to Unizik Otolo Nnewi campus? The worst road that leads to a federal university in the whole of nigeria.

The little we get as a country is squandered by the crooks among us.

Anambra is not USA besides following the coming of dry season, all contractors have been mobilized back to site. Most of those roads will be completed soon

Majority of Nigerians are hypocritical. When there are land mark developments, they remember US and Europe, when it comes down to being responsible to their country, they keep quiet. How many people pay taxes, how many people have cheated the system to enrich themselves, yet we desire and wish to be like the Americans. Food for thoughts.

My country would only have succeeded in setting up a committee to look into it... ..and this alone will take 2years.

I have always maintained that Nigeria is a fraud that is being perpetrated by the elites.
Imagine the magnitude of work the same amount of money ganduje stashed in his babariga would do.
Only God can deliver us from the hand of these beasts in power.

And you would be amazed to see this guys fixed roads that seemingly looked good to the human eyes and providing detours for road users!

One thing about their politician is that you will never hear them campaign about roads been fixed or done by them rather they talk about how many jobs they have been able to create!

Unlike our clueless politician who when they managed to fix a road that was done with tax payers money, they resort to blowing a trumpet of deceit and even involving some zombies to be posting pics upandan here on nairaland! angry
Was surprised when I first got here in the state of Maryland seeing them tearing up perfectly good roads to lay fresh asphalt on it. Was told that the money have to be returned to the treasury if it's not used.
