Nigeria Should Have Been Better Without You, Stop Complaining. by muykem: 4:59pm On May 07, 2020
THE SITUATION IN NIGERIA.

The lecturer who insists on sex for a young girl to pass is complaining about the rot in Nigeria.

The pastor who pays his driver 20k in Lagos or PH while his own son schools in the US is complaining about the hopelessness in Nigeria.

The trader who removes 2 bowls of rice from the bag, rebags and sells as a 'full' bag is complaining about the wickedness in Nigeria.

The civil servant who comes to work once a week and shows up end of month to receive alert is complaining about politicians who do nothing.

The student who spends the weekend partying only to start posting Instagram pictures on Monday is complaining that Nigeria is stealing his/her dreams.

The motor owner who can't join a simple queue but keeps darting in and out of traffic to shunt is complaining about disorderliness in Nigeria.

Doctors in public and teaching hospitals on government payroll who abandon patients on the floor but are thriving in their private hospitals are complaining that Nigeria is hopeless.

Until we realize that the value of Nigeria today is the average of our own individual values, we will keep fooling ourselves.

We are all architect of our economic development woes. Stop the blame game. Our attitudes and unpatriotic behaviour should stop.

If the civil servant doesnt like the salary, he or she can resign. Cos such attitude cant change even if he or she start earning 5m or more

God bless u my brother .This is really the reality on ground.This is who we are but we want magic to happen to make Nigeria better. We pray that our unborn children will be better than us and make this country great someday .As for this generation ,there is nothing to right home about.
Maybe a someone with a hitler personality should come and gassed every one above the age of 18 so that there can be a rebirth of these young Nigerians.

they have no choice. politicians have looted the history of this shîthole and you expect anyone to take anything serious?



humans break rules all the time, all over the world.

people will start being responsible once the institution that are meant to bring them to book are strengthened.
you will start doing that job properly once you know there is a price for failing.


the corruption at the top is responsible for every decay in the society

Why should a politician be receiving such bulk of money just for coming to work thrice or twice a month and you're only concentrating on civil servants??

My people are useless, my people are indiscipline!

Yes. BLAME the people.

I agree with you. After all they are the ones that put that incompetent, lazy, indolent, hypocritical corrupt Buhari and his band of vagabonds in power.

What do they say again about ''a society deserves the government it has''?

Nigerians are corrupt! Absolutely correct there. And so they elected to have a lazy, ignorant, lying and corrupt President and government.

Maybe good governance would change the attitude of the people and make us more patriotic. I’d like to be patriotic, but Nigeria at its current state does not deserve my patriotism. I don’t even like our Nigerian flag.

We are actually saying the same thing. Most Nigerians are selfish, self centered and greedy. That is why most of our Leaders are bad. Remember they were once citizens as well.
Hence our Leaders either good or bad are reflection of how good or bad we are as a nation

The civil servant can resign and contest for HoR position. Attitude to work most times won't change regardless of the pay. Can that same Civil servant put up that attitude in a private company? or can the civil servant pay salary to someone who works in his business and comes to work onces a week?

I am not talking about Buhari right now,I'm talking about Us, Buhari, u and I are all Nigerians so we all need to be responsible to fix Nigeria, Buhari wont create job for everyone, he will create opportunities then it is left to us to see them coming,when he closed the border did you go to farm to Cultivate? I dont think so,that was opportunity. People said Trump create lots of employments did you think he was building factories?no,he was busy placing sanctions and tariffs on imports so this businesses had to move in America them boom everyone is employed, Buhari tried to do that but people wanted him to build a industry and ask for their voters card number to get employment,no country does that partner.

First step is to divide this country. All region should grow and operate individually. Gradually, orientation and morals should be mandated at every school levels. Every region will see the root of their problems once another region progress. Nigeria is too big (culturally, etnically and religiously) for 1 black man to rule

The change doesn't start from you. It starts from the top. Why are Nigerians working with private institutions not having the same attitude as civil servants in the same country? If a policeman knows when he is caught receiving a bribe he will be sacked, do you think he will be doing it?

Attitude to work doesn't change due to a change in pay. It changes due to seriousness of the employer. Can those same civil servants have the same attitude if they were working with a private firm?

Op I totally understand you .,..but you see I don't want to write too much, anything you see obtainable here is as a result of a dilapidated system.. you see when the head is bad the body becomes useless cos it can't function well without a good head. Listen the citizens of Nigeria are not the problem but the GOVERNMENT (those who have been, are now and will still be in the helm of affairs) over the years.

Be responsible as a government and let's the system be working with all the institutions working effectively and you will see how law abiding the citizens will be. Op let me ask you this why do you think same people you mention up there when they travel to advance nation they will be humble ...you know why, they have a RESPONSIBLE govt, therefore expect the system to be very effective & functional.

I had a cousin in Nigeria who was a secondary school drop out, a thug, infact he was almost useless causing issues everywhere, until he was bundled out to the UK, go and see him now with a wife and a son, working and responsible, what happened the SYSTEM.

We have a failed system and even though we as Nigerians have a role to play to make it better the major role lies with the Authorities ...until they become RESPONSIBLE, the system will continue to produce her type of citizens.

In conclusion, if the father in the home is a useless father, there is every tendency that that home will produce useless children except on few occasion.

Op it is MACRO before MICRO, as govt is the macro and individuals the micro.

There's an addage that says when the head is rotten the rest of the body is in trouble so if you like bath the body 20 times a Day,use expensive cologne on it,wear designer clothes on it and give it the best facelifting,no Matter the level of packaging,the head that is rotten will destroy the efforts of the body in trying to look good
