He made sense but he is not the 1st to make that particular sense. As a matter of fact, he is not even the one millionth person to state same and our leaders ain't deaf nor blind . They know that the most we can do is "keep making sense" on the internet and then pray to God for Nigeria to be better and that's it, no action.

Enough said already. Nothing is gonna change until we are ready to walk the talk.

Stop arguing blindly , just accept there is not time the truth can't be spoken

Oyibo, don't bother yourself so much trying to understand the black man.

This is because the black man has no sense at all.

Senseless people do senseless things.

Who is HE to talk about corruption in Nigeria??

He should ask his fellow British colonisers what they did with all the billions of pounds they made from 1897 to 1960, exporting our cocoa, rubber, tin, palm oil, groundnuts, coal, iron ore, timber, aluminium, etc etc, such that at independence in 1960 we were an underdeveloped bush with mass illiteracy, no major power station, no expressways, no major industry, and near zero infrastructure. In fact as late as the 1950s, our national football team travelled to England on a tour and played BAREFOOT because the colonial regime had starved them of basic funds for everything, and they'd never seen football boots...

The audacity of these people....

This one is still reading history when you obviously don’t like your country and your country men move in droves to the west .
He’s not even saying you should not be corrupt. He’s saying at least if you ruin your country , your children will be there to suffer it so why not be corrupt and still have small sense ?
Why can’t u be corrupt and still remember that if the road is complete, it’s for the good of everyone ?

if they need to sound it 1000x repeatedly for those crook who are hell bent on destroying this nation to be brought to justice then it's never enough . .infact it should be a continuous slogan.

What he said made enough sense.

No need arguing with that poster, Judging by silly, childish comments on NL, you would notice that a lot of so called youths are very brainless and senseless, this foreigner made SO much sense but just reading through stupid comments on the first page you would be discouraged, sad.. .

What we need in Nigeria is Reorientation & Enlightenment.

I believe this generation have been prepared for that, Enlightenment. I believe this generation have been prepared for Success, just that the Cosmic dark forces wanna sway our attention off the Heavenly Success.

In case you don't know, the Revolution have started already. I am currently training a number of 15 Nigerians into Financial, Moral & Attitudinal Freedom. As this Nigerians are getting freed up, they'll be involving other Nigerians, Africans in the Freedom process.

Let a Nigerian out there remain Positive!

I'm a Nigerian, and I'm so positive. It's true the crooks have spoilt the country but there's still hope if there's attitudinal change im the nook and cranny of the country.

He didn't make any new point oga. Everything he stated there is widely known in public domain. What does it change ? We should quit stating the obvious repeatedly.



As long as what is being said over and over again still repeats and permeates deeper anytime anyone revisits such observation, it becomes new points so the man is very and aptly on point. Plus most people in Nigeria don't see it the way he sees it that the corruption Is senseless. You can work for us and still steal. But these politicians just believe in stealing like crazy men. Looting to the bottom!

Really? But they've still got our billions of pounds (or trillions, considering it was a 70 year rule). Why should we forget that and ''move on"?

And now they're giving us advice? Dude please, don't annoy me this evening. The least they can do is STFU. They're in no position to criticise corruption in Nigeria while still holding on to their loot from this country.

We are ruling ourselves for the past 6 Decades. What has come out of it. China, India, Japan and koreans were all rural in the 50's and 60's and we Naija even have a more promising outlook and future than them. U still putting the blame on Brits. The Chinese and India made a decision to turn the clock around and make a name for themselves and see where it has landed them. We on our decided to be a lame duck and make our belly a paradise to consume our next and next generation future and we are still doing it up till now. The Japanese was in ruin in the Second world war, total destruction, they came up with revival plan and they stick to it, see where it landed them.

China the second most Richest country on earth, breathing heavily, on the neck of America, in terms of GDP. She has both economy and space power.

India spare heading medicine in terms of productivity and Emerging power in Telecommunications. Don't forget Nuclear energy as well ready to be unleashed on their noisy neighbor , Pakistan.

Bottom line is many Nation has moved on from the old theatrics of blaming colonization as the Sole reason for our under productivity and under development. We should stop crying river and change the course of history for our own good o.

** I decided to leave Qatar, Dubia and the united Arab Emirate from the equation. Who be them compare to Naija in the 50s up to 70s. But their Leadership, what is common to all, decided to change their course of history with strong determination and see D results today.

You should learn from what he’s saying. They can still loot even more when they have all the infrastructures done . No one will care anymore. Wake up from your tribal war.

They inflict poverty in the country and when you cry for food , they give you a token and you will hail them.

We were once richer and more developed than Dubai , but see Dubai today! Ghana is fast overtaken us , all we do is to fight on social media.

Corruption in Africa is about class hatred and dominance. The politicians and their cronies do not want the masses to live as humans.

Sadly, the masses have become used to it.

The man is very much correct. Our politicians are just foolish and greedy without any conscience.

Even in some firm/companies, they allow some percentage of corruption and they still get jobs done perfectly well.

They will give a target and they may ignore some levels of corruption. If u can "steal" from the company and still meet the target, no problem. The only thing the company will do is to keep increasing ur target. U see that the company will keep getting better while the workers will be tasking their brains on hw they will meet the target and still make the side cash.

Let me explain more of that stealing from the company.
Let's take for instance a company into Cargo.
You are given a target to make N5m cargo every 2weeks.
Assuming a customer comes, u charge the load for N100,000.
You post 90k into companies account and retain 10K, that is corruption, but the company may let it be and focus on ur target. If u meet it they will increase it otherwise they will sack u.

In this case, the staff will even start going from office to office to look for customers cos he wants to meet target and still make money of his own. You will see that the company will keep growing and getting better.

Our Nigerian Politicians don't have a target for this country. That is why they will steal all the money they made on behalf of this country.

You need to read about other African countries, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria etc. You need to see how the citizens take to the streets and not the internet.

Anyways, let us keep regurgitating same words our parents did. Our kids might actually do same and the circle continues.
