Always blaming others. You are all failure.

1 year ago, I would have said what you said but today I don't agree. Colonization is evil. And we are still recovering. The colonized Canadian natives are still suffering till this day.

You have to insult to pass the message which is full.of inaccurate facts . University of Ibadan was founded in 1949.The first electricity company in Nigeria was established in 1929 and in fact the present NEPA (ECN). was founded in 1951.My hometown in Oyo state was electrified in the late 1930s.

The colonial masters did a better job with the resources they had than this kleptomaniac Abdussalami who looted billions of dollars in just 9months . Obasanjo kept quiet on this for the sake of tranquility and went after Abacha's loot.

SHUT UP. HE IS SAYING THE TRUTH. Oyinbo asss licker.

The British ruled for 80 years, exporting our resources, and at the end we did not have a single power plant or university or expressway or industry.

Kainji dam was our first power plant, commissioned by the Balewa administration in 1964.

Prior to that the British merely imported a few industrial generators to power the GRAs they were living in, while the rest of Nigeria used lanterns and candles.

Nigeria was a near total bush in 1960 at independence with mass illiteracy and malnutrition.

What did your 'perfect white man' do with the trillions he made from our exports in 80 years?

You are VERY LUCKY we gained independence in 1960 which led to mass education investment by the black govts.

Or else by now you would be hunting cockroaches and tapping palm wine in the bush like your illiterate grandpa did under colonial rule.

“My generation grew up under the military rule and we were told how our Abdulsalam Abubakar siphoned our treasury (Abatcha loot). That is how they continue deceiving their followers with blame game, they will never accept responsibility of failing Nigerians. Continue.

it's you that should shut up. I grew up reading about the fight for independence from colonial rule and all the glorification of the resistance movement. But became disappointed as I realised they just inherited the colonialist exploitative methods. 61 years of independence and you still want to blame white people, it is estimated that Abacha only, looted about 15 billion USD as of the 90s exchange. From 1960 till now about over 500 billion USD has been stolen from public Treasury in this country. Na oyibo do am? It's africans like you and I. Paul Biya has been president of Cameroon for over 30 years, Mugabe had to be forced out, more than half of those people who fought for independence ended up becoming despots and authoritarian. Abeg me I have mature pass that one. They said the palm oil seeds Malaysia got to start their own oil palm production was gotten from this country, can we compete with them today?

What colonial masters got from Nigeria after independence till today, is a million times more than what the colonial masters got from Nigeria before independence.
Colonial masters control Nigeria’s oil and gas deposits through handing political supremacy in Nigeria to Nigeria’s Arewa north.

You need to borrow sense.

Was it colonial masters that awarded udoji allowance claiming nigeria problem was not money but how to spend the money?
Was it colonial masters that borrowed IMF money?
Colonial masters only augmented the incapability of the north by handling over power to them for them to still be in charge of Nigeria by proxy

You are too negative and limited in your thinking... You need to change this mentality. I mean this with all due respect.

Leadership can never be denied! Leadership, true leadership births a nation that can never bow to external forces! Do some research please.

Quit making excuses for the lack of leadership quality of your failed elders! They failed not because their hands were tied, but because their consciences were corrupted by greed and lack of patriotism!!! SIMPLE!!!

Note: I don't deny the presence of external influences all round, but when you see leaders with vision, nothing will hold them back!!!
