Nigeria as we already know is already in a state of comatose.
the leaders are bad and greedy while the masses keeps creating liabilities and are also lazy.
the time for emotional thinking is way past us, the pace at which Nigeria is going backwards is beyond redemption.
the smart political elites have already seen this and are already planning their future outside of Nigeria so also the intelligent few amongst the masses.
I read on fronpage this morning when some individuals were rating their state govt performance. barely you find a governor who is being rated above 5. is it that bad that no governor is doing fine??
Edo state governor yesterday while exposing the nigeria govt who had to artificially print up to 60billion naira as allocations clearly pointed the faults of the masses too.
a part which I'm sure most lazy Nigerians would love to ignore but choose to wail.

in the words of obaseki.

“Everywhere else, government rely on the people to produce taxes and that is what they use to run the local government, state and the federation.
“But with the way we run Nigeria, the country can go to sleep. At the end of the month, we just go to Abuja, collect money and we come back to spend. We are in trouble, huge financial trouble.

the truth is unlike most countries, Nigeria has refused to be productive in generating revenue.
we love things at an extremely cheaper price.
majority of govt organization are running at loss.
in saner climes, organizations apart from security are profit generating.
they generate their own salary and remit to the govt but here in Nigeria, we generate nothing.
infact govt subsidize our running cost and at the end of the month we go home waiting and expecting salary.
the moment govt tried to increase tax so they can manage our ever growing liability the masses object.
these same masses including the educated ones would strongly stand against any proposal to regulate our birth rate.
they prefer giving birth to hundreds of children and expect govt to keep subsidizing the school fees of these kids.
money that should be channeled elsewhere would be used to manage the stupidity of others.
Nigeria has two options which is either to keep wailing till we are finally buried or we wake up from our slumber and start thinking how we can generate revenue from all sectors including the security sector.
