wizzie001: Nigeria's problem has never been government one leadership the problem is the people are illiterate they cannot develop a country this is the truth. Nigerian people cannot stand the truth they do not want to hear the truth they rather suffer and die hearing lies and fooling themselves that they can build a nation when it is not possible. If we never got independence Nigeria would be better than Canada Australia and New Zealand but because of her illiteracy independence has lead us to our downfall the nation. Today you see Nigerians running to Botswana South Africa Namibia to be refugees. As long as we do not tell ourselves the truth the country cannot develop we can vote for 1 million Nigerians none of them will develop the country because they do not know how to develop a country fool themselves to Eternity |

helinues: We have to go back to British rule and correct the Foundation of the country that is the only way Nigeria can progress we have to learn how to develop and build a country from the British like what happened in Australia New Zealand America and Canada failing to do this we will just be going round in a circle you cannot build a multi-storey building on a foundation which is incorrect 1 Like |

wizzie001: You pick on one president in the 60 years of independence is that fair all of them are failures none is better than the other and you can vote for 1 million more they will all be failures they cannot just develop a country. Look up all our leaders since independent where is there performance and progress. When it becomes to developing a country there are very few people and Nigeria has nobody. If you look at somebody which went to Harvard like okonjo-iweala achievement record is 0 progress record in economically building 0 this is what I mean that we do not know how to build a country |

mostob: This is perhaps the mindset of the current set of political jobbers we have in our political space, they joined the system when they realized they couldnt beat it... We need a ruthless leader in Nigeria indeed. Trump comes to mind |

SUFFERInSMILIIN: My brother, what would you do differently if given the rare priviledge of leading this country... we know Nigerians have been avoiding the truth for long, we all know the system is not working & has never worked, there seems to be no hope in sight. What's the way forward?? |

SUFFERInSMILIIN: I only talked about him because he was the subject matter, none of the past ruler is exonerated, they have all contributed to the mess one way or the other. |

Divide Nigeria into 6 to 8 manageable units - either as true federating units or separate countries. I personally believe smaller units will be easier to govern and manage. Nigeria as it is now is very very difficult country to lead as a United entity. Supposedly strong men like Obasanjo, Buhari and Murtala were not able to unify this nation and harness it's great potentials. I honestly can't see, in our time, anyone else who can. Nigeria is ungovernable. Period. Break her down to manageable units ASAP before we exterminate ourselves with hatred 1 Like |

I poses neither the charism, nor ambition to lead. However here are my thoughts. Create a clear and unambiguous separation of religion and state. Move forward the motion to restructure the country on the basis of the geopolitical regions to possess full autonomy. Deregulating the the power and petroleum sectors. Find ways to cut down recurrent expenditure from the yearly budget, by means of salary and allowance review for all government employees and elected positions senators, reps... Increasing funding for education and scientific research Removing any and all quota systems. Employment and hiring to just be based solely on merit. Retraining of existing and recruitment of more security personnel. Liberation of firearms laws, the citizen should have the right to defend themselves from terrorists, armed robbers and an oppressive government. Creating section9. A special subsect of the police answerable only directly to the president. To be tasked with investigating and rooting out of corruption inside the government. Focus on industrialising the farming sector. etc. I could keep going, but Leme end here. 1 Like |

Go and ask Buratai, Adamu, and Bichi they will tell you. Nonsense |

IMAliyu: If you could come up with this thought provoking details without tons/entourage of political aids and advisers, then why should you take the backseat when it comes to leadership? |

wizzie001:I don't poses the type of personality and confidence that leaves an impression on people, neither do I inspire nor command respect in people. And I don't like telling people what to do. I'm not a leader and have no aspirations to be. Although I understand where you are coming from. I can't remember which Greek philosopher said this, but goes "if the smart people in a society refuse to lead, then expect to suffer under the leadership of idiots" a paraphrasing of it. |

wizzie001:Yea but anybody contesting should not only be ruthless but have a solid backing. He/she needs to be surrounded by loyalists that share the same ideology. Ruthlessness only is not enough in Nigeria politics bro. |

wizzie001: Sense of justice. Figure out a way to recover and bring all those who ruined the country to quick and very harsh justice. There's no quick fix now. |
