Think about this! If you observe Nigeria since independence, you’ll notice the country has been dilapidating slowly, gradually. The country has not been getting better, it’s been getting worse, while the population continues to rise. Oil revenue is dwindling, it will dwindle further. Corruption has been on the increase, it will get worse, not better, because it’s entrenched in our civil and public service culture now.

Insecurity is not going away anytime soon because there’s high unemployment, corruption, political thuggery, religious and politically motivated violence, communal clashes, and violent college cultism. To cap it all, there’s gun smuggling around the country allegedly in collusion with rogue members of the police and military. All these I mentioned on this paragraph have been on the rise from the 60s to this day, none has become better

If you’re hoping that someday Nigeria will be better, on what basis is that hope hinged upon? Even if we all decide to do the right thing (which will most likely NEVER HAPPEN), it will take decades of consistency (at least 15 to 20 years) to build the infrastructure, rebuild the institutions, acquire the level of education and technocrats needed to plan, execute, manage, maintain, and advance the system… and where will the money come from?

Why am I telling you this? So you can get real with your hopes and expectations, and know exactly what future you’re leaving for your kids. It’s my job to inform you what lies ahead, but it’s your job what you do with the information.
You actually said it all. I like those that always say the Truth at all cost. Thanks and God bless you.

Beancounter93:
Ogun tax to gdp ratio is below 3%

New York tax to.gdp ratio is above 30%

There is a reason why one has modern firefighting equipment and one has ancient equipment.

But tell Nigerians we need to pay taxes

1. We are.poor

2. The politicans will loot the money ( and when you tell them it is their job to.see the politicans don't loot their money they then blame the Hausas).

No problem. Auntie Christine and Auntie Liu will give us another loan if we ask nicely
And who told you Nigerians dont pay tax? You seem to have no clue. Federal civil servants pay income tax, companies are also taxed, and every single Nigerian pays V.A.T. Morever, FIRS generate trillions of naira annually for the goverment, but do Nigerians get in return? Your answer is as good as mine.

its a chemical they are adding to the water so that it can quench the fire very fast stop downgrading our country in every aspect learn how to appreciate not always looking for the fault

Stop that nonsense. Don't think we are all ignoramuses. All fire retardants are chemical or bio-chemical agents and the standard colour for such containment vessels is blue because they are likely poisonous. Materials stored in yellow containers are classified as combustible or flammable. So will it not be daft to pour flammable material into your fire truck to fight fire eh?

And by the way chemical fire retardant agents on fire trucks have a separate tank towards the base like that of an automobile and dozing into the main reservoir is done by pumps in a controlled manner depending on the severity of the fire.

What you see are vegetable oil cans....And no one I know fight fire with oil.

There is a big truck of gas waiting to explode and one boy still has the mind to stay close and nearby and recording on his phone telling people about the truck about to explode while some people are searching for water!!

Just one gbooosssaaa and that will be the end of his Techno phone.
Wisdom matters in life sha.

About the truck, how many Jerry cans will filled up that truck (a brand new fire truck tho, we can't take that away!)
But what is a brand new fire truck gonna do without water in it?
There was a country!


Amen and a very big Amen.
May God continue to keep us all safe and sound.

1.Nigeria's tax to gdp ratio is 6.1%

2.30% of taxable Nigerians are actually taxed...that's where all those taxes come from

3.Our budget is 10 trillion. For a nation our size, we need far more than that.

4.I am aware you pay tax, So do i...but most of us who are in the informal sector don't pay taxes.

For as long as Naija does not get better, we would continue to suffer either at home or abroad. Even if we manage to get citizenship in white lands, racism would continue to be a thorn in our flesh. The best we can do is to keep praying & hoping things get better. And before Naija packs up, higher % of African countries must have packed up. There are worse nations out there whose citizens still pray they have a country as Nigeria.

If you think you are poor, don't forget some people are poorer.
some of the most religious countries like England, italy and Germany didnt rely solely on prayer to magically solve the multitude of problems plaguing them in the 19th and 20th century. I suggest you read on how they overcame that to be who they are today.

you guys should stop being ignorance of what you know nothing about. They are not using Jerry can to fill the fire engine but pouring foam compound to fight the highly inflammable tanker in order to create bubbles to take out the oxygen/air aiming the fire

If you think you are poor, don't forget some people are poorer.

Do you pray and hope more than Somalians or Syrians, and are you more dedicated to your religion more than people in Borno and Yobe? Your country is what you build out of it, not what you hope it will become someday without putting the structures in place. What structure is Nigeria currently putting in place for a better tomorrow? In fact, in 10 to 15 years time you'll see the effects of our poor education system first hand, because that's when graduates from the system become the public servants, politicians and leaders of the society.

The population will continue to grow, and resources to cater for the population will continue to dwindle. Nigeria will not pack up, no country does, it will only be a place where one is either rich by virtue of your connection with the corrupt system and elites who fight over the meagre resources, or very poor by virtue of their poor education, poor paying jobs and inability to afford expensive housing, education and services. The society will be insecure to foreigners and Nigerians living abroad, and the cycle goes on and on.

There is racism abroad but it doesn't take away your 24/7 access to electricity, drinking water, access to good education, good paying jobs and facilities that only the rich can afford in Nigeria. Your struggles are different in advanced societies. In those places, you worry about work and other things, not about basic things like electricity, water, road safety of daily commute and even education for your kids.

Every society has its problems and racism is something the society continues to work on though it may not go away. But what is Nigeria working on, in comparison? By the way, what's the difference between tribalism and nepotism within your country vs racism outside your country?
