I saw better nigeria. Our people were honest people. It was our leaders that led the country astray. Particularly the generals. They were more concern about stealing billions. |

SUFFERInSMILIIN: Mr. Literate thanks for the compliment oh. At least its not everyday people question my literacy. The problem with nigeria is people like you, who think they know all when infact they know nothing. You are you corruption free ? or you think you are corrupt only when you take and receive bribe ? Fu*K my face you are too myopic |

Lol this doesn't really mean anything though See it this way.. There are two boys from different families, both didnt have thier parents around all thr time... Both boys were taught well and disciplined well by thier parents... one boy started following bad gangs, smoking stealing, the other boy still behaved well.... Point here is the problem is from the parents for not being around to monitor both boys.... One turned out good but the other bad..... In essence two of them cant turn out the same, because humans react differently to situations.... In essence the problem is from the parents.... What i mean is the problem is still from nigerian government |

Wow. Tbh, we need to change in Nigeria. We have values issue. This started in the 80's and we just keep going down since then. I'll trust American Atheists or unbelievers more than many Nigerian GO's, prophets or Papas. Nobody can use collar or suit to swoop away my soup any longer. This article is not trying to say Zimbabweans are perfect but it's very very hard to find a few people you can trust in Nigeria. I still believe we need a mix of democracy and military to re-integrate values into our culture. |

BRASH: I have hear this from a lot of us but at the end of the day you can go and vote for a criminal. When I was in UK America and Switzerland Nigerian community was telling Nigeria that they have no choice they most vote for a Nigerian criminal even if it means he cannot do anything for them but they must vote for themselves. At this criminal mentality. Just look what happened to Germany Nigerian community about 10 years ago everybody told them the person which they wanted to vote his hands are not clean his brother was in jail in South Africa his junior brother was in jail in Egypt he was already being investigated for money laundering 78% of Nigerians in Germany went to vote for him as the head of Nigerian community. today the man is in prison what does that mean 78% of Nigerians in Germany are criminals. It is only a criminal which vote for a criminal. I have seen a lot of good Nigerians all over the world but because of their stupidity and illiterate the end of voting for criminals and putting criminals to lead them even Nigerians in America and Canada are no exception |

Opexzy: Even though you probably have a good motive for sharing this story of yours, you didn't do well by ending with "Bad people are everywhere likewise good people"...THAT IS NOT THE POINT HERE MR, IT IS A CLEAR FACT THAT GENERALLY NIGERIANS HAVE A CRIMINAL/CORRUPT WAY OF THINKING AND BAD REPUTATION. And believe me, it's also a clear fact that among other African countries, we are usually the ones foreigners have told themselves to be wary of. When I worked with a company few years back, we had a business deal with a company in Finland, they clearly said when doing business with Nigerians, they have to take extra precautionary measures because of our history. They made every process much much difficult because why? We were Nigerians! We should stop blaming the government please and work on ourselves as civilians, as a people, as a person. |

Vixlot:If this is true about Zimbabwe populace, then how did there government officials become corrupt? Or, is it that they take their leaders from other countries? And I am surprised you said their police is disciplined. This is not consistent from what we have been seeing from many media houses sin the later years of Mugabe till now. You would not very wise to trust a complete stranger with such responsibility anywhere in the world! You were just foolishly desperate!! 1 Like |

dbestuncle: Nigeria can never have good leadership in 1 million years. The reason for this the people are illiterate but they will be fooling themselves that they know. Our problem is more of illiteracy you cannot truth seed on hard rock and expect it to do well. In Europe and America Nigerians know what is right they will never do it they will tell you they have to support a criminal |
Re: Honesty and Contentment: My Experience In Zimbabwe. by Shattuck(m): 6:30pm On Aug 18, 2020 |
SUFFERInSMILIIN:I know the masses hold a major blame in Nigeria's failure but illiteracy and poverty are two major areas the govt use to oppress the masses and make them always vote for them, illiteracy and poverty is high in Nigeria as a result of govt failure too. I agree with you that the people need to step up and do more about their attitude. |

We missed it right from the era of the military dominated by the north who never believed one could save for the raining day. Corruption was the order of the day. Their culture and religious believe never permitted them to prepare for a better future. Once they have access to money today, they could squander everything today and tomorrow say, would take care if itself, forgetting that God is God of plan, process, organisation and time. Those who couldn't put up with them but wanted to also live large like the family of the military and the lay of the elites hobnobbing with them, would do anyrhing doable to corrupt themselves and the vices go on and on. Banangida made it worse by institutionalising corruption in Nigeria. All those who destroyed Nigeria will never go unponished. together we can retire them politically |

It is time to repair our identity. We need to work on our value system. We need to retrace our steps to find where we missed it. Maybe we can be right again. |

A woman I met online, ones gave me money for Dubai visa and ticket for three people, which I delivered. Till today, we have not seen each other and when she was in Dubai for a week, we couldn't see because I was busy then. Nigerians can do more than that. No big deal on that. 1 Like |

Every country has the good, the bad and the ugly...This dude is simply lucky that he dealt with the good, a good Zimbabwean. My point is: Don't be too quick to judge all Nigerians. With the bad system, retardeddd leaders and unbearable poverty level in the country, there are still a few incredible Nigerians, who respect themselves, respect the laws and uphold a solid integrity. Yes, without a doubt, there is a big room for each and everyone of us to do better in making our country's name fly high and shine, but we Nigerians still remain the best of the best in African... and also around the world. Let us continue to push forward and hope for the best... Nigeria will fly again! |

duro4chang: I think Nigerians have become very desperate people. I don’t know when or how this desperation started Bt I think it’s tied to the era when showing off materialism became a fashion and acceptable no matter where u get the money from. Back in the day people will avoid u and gossip ur matter everywhere Bt now they will openly praise u as a performer. Governmental corruption is one thing and societal corruption is another thing entirely. We have embraced both in Nigeria very sadly. Stalwert: I read ur post and felt like crying. We have lost our values and morals shamelessly. How we can fix this is the Million dollar Question 3 Likes |
