I have a question...do you think naija would be better if the whites are still ruling us??
too much better...whites have learnt how to build societies. Why do you think south Africa is the best black majority country?

However if whites were still in charge, there would be parts of Lagos that blacks can't buy land today or as late as 1990s

There would be police brutality higher than what you know

There would be drug abuse.

But

Nigeria with oil would definitely be a developed country.

There would certainly not be boko haram.

Nigerians would travel to UK without visa.

I will honestly choose them.
Why do you think that we are all rushing to Canada despite racism.

We would still have 3 regions by now and each region would have had at least 2 solid, skyscraper city by now.

North probably Jos and Kaduna
West probably Ibadan and warri
East probably Enugu and port Harcourt

Lagos would be in the league of London today because we have oil. While these other cities would be in the same league with say Johannesburg. Our population would be controlled and polygamy would be illegal. No almajiri system.

People like me who don't look for trouble would easily be enjoying the country despite the white supremacy that may be widely rampant. Living in enugu and having a good job.

Oh what we missed on October 1960. We were not ready for that independence. Our first black president should have come in the 2000s not in the 1960s

yes. It's just like New Zealand. The Maori were initially displaced but are today enjoying a highly developed country. And now their rights have been fully returned to them.

All first world countries still struggle with corruption to an extent and still manage to grow, the reason africa continues to stagnate Is beyond me, sometimes I catch my self in the nonsensical thought that maybe Africans are inferior.

seanwilliam:

the easiest way forward is restructuring.
You don't expect us to go and begs whites to return to Africa do you?
Let's look at smaller African countries.
Rwanda is the fastest developing African country
Gabon, Botswana, Equitorial Guinea, seyshells etc are all growing.

We should decentralise power in Nigeria. The FG should only have the following exclusive role
Military
Foreign affairs
Currency and banking
Customs
Immigration

While the 36 states should have the following roles together with FG in concurrent list
Police
Prisons
Education
Energy
Mineral and mines
Oil and gas
Environment
Health
Aviation
Maritime
Agriculture
Railway

The 774 LGA should be scrapped and states should be allowed to create, empower and fund their own LGA. States should have supreme courts if they want. To hear matters regarding state constitution.

Nothing like federal road or hospital or university...let states manage that.

This will allow states to grow at their own pace

Chai. Imagine if Benin kingdom was allowed to progress through monarchy.. damn nigeria needs prayer.

We need to develop countries for black people..

Rwanda, south Africa, sychellese are some of the best black countries. Nigeria has failed black people.

The government is not ready,we as a people are not ready.
Just yesterday Aluu community host to a free specialist hospital facilities of which they are the major beneficiaries,built by the OPM church led by Apostle Chnyere was shut down because of unending Levies charges.
He said he called the community leaders and was told it's a compulsory levy.
This hospital provides free ante natal, delivery drugs,scan,post natal services,etc..
Where do the poor pregnant women go from here?
Govt no ready, individual came forward and we are thwarting his efforts.
Na so we won take develop?
but those levies are statutory

the same way poor countries like Burundi, Malawi, Guinea Bissau etc are doing.
They will figure it out once money stops coming from elsewhere. They will know how best to generate and spend income.

Why would the governors of unproductive states care that they are parasites when fg will pay them every month?

bro no dey use Nigeria and the bolded in the same sentence abeg... oyo state alone is doing better than the 3 combine both in finance and standard of life..


That's being said...

The solution to Nigeria problem is simple
1. There should be political reformation.. there should be 500% salary reduction for every political office holders
2. There should be economy diversification.. government should concentrate on agriculture and technology
3. Education should be given needed attention.. atleast 15 percent of gdp should be spent on education..
4. Taxation.. in america, two things are the surest ..a. Death b. Tax..every Nigerian and institution should be mandated to pay tax.. including church, mosque etc..
5. Government should encourage BOT( BUILT, OPERATE AND TRANSFER) in every project( infrastructures , social amenities etc.).. instead of embarking on project they know they wont complete due to lack of fund.. instead they should partner with private companies and strike a deal on BOT..
6. Local products should be encouraged no matter how inferior it is.. sooner or later.. we go perfect.. there should be minimal importation..


6. Whistleblowing should be encouraged.. atleast putting bounty on every criminal exposure..


Lastly , jobless people and older people should be paid stipend monthly .. and retirement age should be pegged at 60..
