Pensioners are dying. Teachers are unpaid. The poor have no food and no means of survival. Their concentration is on a group of successful men who were given the widest open doors in life. This is disproportionate. Why should one be granted a house for representing a country? Every single Nigerian is representing the country in many ways. Where is the house for Fela? He also represented Nigeria. Where is the house for Wole Soyinka? Chimamanda, Wizkid? Let us stop this nonsense. someone has stolen cash to built craps for dead men.
Our athletes are hollow-minded.

Viju Wang Nianyong , a Chinese came to Nigeria to produce Viju milk. All Nigerians went gaga for it and turned the man into a $millionaire. If Amunike or Olise had established a tile manufacturing industry in Nigeria, they would have quadrupled their investments today and would frown upon accepting a mediocre kiosk from the government.
If Rashidi Yekini had invested in Car manufacturing, he would have been the Innoson of today and still be alive.

The Patel family came from India to Nigeria to make Royal salt in 1994. They didn't have a pint of the money that Augustine Egavoen had as a baller. But today, they can hire Egavoen.
Nigerians are not seeing opportunities. As soon as one makes a little change, he drinks, phucks and live extravagant lifestyle when he truly has nothing. Nigerians are bailing out while the foreigners are going to Nigeria to become $billionaires. Nigerians see complaints while others see opportunities.

The government is bad but foreigners are cashing out. Shine your eyes. Someone is getting rich making salt only. I know a Nigerian guy supplying charcoal in a particular country and he made it big. So many opportunities

fura de Noonoo has been a staple in the north for centuries. Up till now you can only get it by the roadside. Is there no one with a brain to package it and cash out?

Zobo is still a low-class drink till date.

In Canada, palm oil is sold in catchy bottle and taken like syrup. In Nigeria the oil kegs are eyesores.

In Cyprus, honey is packages in lovely containers but in Nigeria the original honey is sold in dirty gallons.

Dudu Osun packaging is still like Stella pomade.

Abacha is still sold in dirty wraps. What happened to branding?

Bole is still sold the same way my grandfather used to buy it, by the roadside. Beside a drain.

People are cashing out. Nigerians sit in wealth and expect you to go break your back for them to steal it or beg for it.

What stops a welder from teaming up with a mechanic to produce generators? And, Indians are producing for us to buy.

The one factor that trumped all these is the penchant Nigerians have for anything foreign. It's so bad that Indians at a point were packaging Garri to sell at ShopRite (if I'm not mistaken) because they know Nigerians always like to class themselves.

The lady who owns arguably the biggest interior decor business said some of her clients just won't want anything Nigerian so, she has to keep mum about the fact that she produces some of what she uses in Nigeria otherwise, they won't want it even though it's probably same with what she will import. Trust me, it's not just a govt thing, the people have a problem.

Absolutely right! I totally agree with you. Just to elaborate on this, Nigerian musicians (producers/singers) were totally despised until they started ranking up on the Billboard. Again, Nigerian designers were utterly relegated until they were hired by top U.S artists. Nigerian artist were unidentified until Michelle Obama revealed her tastes.

I had a friend from Kenya whose husband is a pilot working with a 5 star airline. Most of her pictures on her Whatsapp status is her in Nigerian costume. She has a customer whom she has never met. Her husband loads up the supplies whenever he flies to Nigeria.

I don't wear them but I felt ashamed standing in front of her.

The point that I am trying to make is: Can we see more of the possibilities? If we focus our tenacity on optimism, many will succeed. What do you think?

Many white people are scared to visit Nigeria, not because they have experienced any negative act from Nigerians but becasue of the scary things Nigerian friends have told them. They paint the picture so gloomy that only the four horsemen will muster up the testicular fortitude to step a foot in the country let alone invest in it.

Do you get my point? If you and I can paint a particular picture so well, people will begin to believe us.

I am not offended. You are my brother It is okay that we have these conversations.
I am here to see if I can radically agitate somebody's mind to think success and see the variant opportunities around him. That hope can stop one from suicide and from giving up in life.
Africans are suffering and since the government ain't helping, we can inspire each other

Not my intention to antagonize you. My apologies if you felt I did.
The important thing is that you showed you put your money where you mouth is unlike most motivational speakers.
