A Developed Nigeria: A Dream Coming True by nich(m): 8:26am On May 09, 2007 |
Hello fellow nairaland users! It's so easy for anyone to find faults especially with our dear Nigeria. So easily people say, “'This' is not functional, 'That' is dead…” and so on. Most of us (Nigerians) wished naija were like jand or yankee, hence, my questions. 1. What changes would you like to see in Nigeria? 2. What new concepts would you like to see adopted in Nigeria? 3. What do you think can take Nigeria to the level where 'we' know that Nigeria is developed? (NOTE: YOU NEED NOT ANSWER ALL THREE QUESTIONS, COS THEY'RE ALL TO ACHIEVE THE SAME PURPOSE - HOW DO WE GET TO THAT PLACE CALLED 'A DEVELOPED NIGERIA'?) I believe naija has the 'all that is required'. I'd start by saying, i. Nigeria would be better if we married our educational syetem with the institutions that affect the economy and everyday life." For example, carrying out researches in schools that could help improve agricultural yields, textile production and traffic problems in Lagos to mention a few. ii. Nigeria would be better if we maintained our facilities: roads, buildings, etc. iii. Nigeria would be better if 'NEPA' considered itself as a service provider. (Dreams and wishes do come true. ) |

Nigeria would be better if the fundamental education (primary & secondary) were taken as seriously as issues such as plane crashes. |

Better Nigeria. That's Feasible. Developed Nigeria. Not so. |

Haba bros! How could you say a thing like that? Well, i still believe that 'Rome wasn't built in a day'. Funny enough, a lot of things are happening in Naija and time would reveal those great things. However, i think the problem that has left Naija in 'da mess' is the 'Managerial skills of the Government' so far, but alas! things are changing (probably slowly, but surely.) |

nich: My Point exactly. It will take Decades before Nigeria can reach such a feat. There is no African country that is developed. South Africa is developed Infrastructural wise, but close to 50% of South Africa's population live below the poverty line, and crime is rampant. I'm just saying, that even the most stable of the Emerging economies, is still a far cry from being a developed country. So only a slowpoke, would think Nigeria will be a developed country any time soon. Unless of course we get an angel for a President. Brazil isn't a developed country and neither is Singapore, China or India. Let us not be naive |

dblock: I probably need to look up the meaning of 'Developed Country', but thanks for admitting there's light at the end of the tunnel. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Developed_countries dblock: slowpoke? That's rather harsh! Anyway, I don't think the Government can do it alone. The input of individuals is 'very required'. The Government could make the 'pitch' available, maintain it and make rules and regulations that make the use of the facility beautiful, while individuals/organisations form teams: goal-keepers, defenders, mid-fielders and strikers who work to score goals and make things happen. You might be interested in improving the energy sector, while I Waste management, someone else the Agricultural sector and so on gradually the child grows to become a man/woman. |
