APC Primaries: Nigerians Are Just Like Women- American University Professor by Highlandgee: 3:33pm On Jun 08, 2022
A US-based Nigerian Professor of Psychology at the University of California, Prof. Adetunji Alabi has likened Nigerians to some women. Prof. Alabi’s made this assertion in reaction to the recent adoption of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the presidential flag-bearer of the APC and much earlier, of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as the flagbearer of the PDP.

“Many Nigerians recognize that the country needs a departure from these recycled, old, no-good kleptomaniac leaders yet you find that there is an illogical, stupid, if you will, tendency to keep choosing these kinds of people repeatedly”

“Just like some women (no puns intended), they can’t help themselves. They don’t know what they want. The bad guy syndrome. Women who choose jerks over respectable men over and again and yet come around and cry about how they have suffered and have been maltreated……and yet they repeat the whole cycle. It’s not a mistake; it is psychological”

And as with the Stockholm syndrome, some women will rather choose to remain with a rapist or an abuser rather than be liberated"

Prof. Alabi who stated that he is non-partisan also said his assertion should not be seen as an insult to Nigerians or women who he said are intelligent. “Nigerians are very intelligent people, but there’s just an incomprehensible psychological blockage that needs to be broken” He stated that he has a lot of family members and friends in Nigeria and wishes the country nothing but the best.

He added “hopefully, there would come a time when Nigerians would become more rational and decide what is truly best for them. Until then, they can only enjoy what they have chosen but should quit complaining”

You are very correct prof, but he is going nowhere. He will never see that Aso Rock no matter what has played.

It will take 200 years for Nigerians to wake up from their present intellectual quagmire because poverty has made them blind to reality.

As long as people like madriguy, Manna, e.t.c roam this zoo, there is no hope for common sense in this jungle.

Educated Nigerians tend to Ignore the Less Educated Masses who are by far the Majority and they prefer to Stick with who and what they know and understand than who they don’t know

Their guiding Motto seems to be the Suffering you know is far far better than the one you don’t know

That's it. We keep suffering from years of mismanagement of our collective resources by greedy men ruling without accountability or the fear of God. Yet, they tame us with some droplets of the flowing rivers of the loot so they can get to higher positions to amass much more. We fall for it like a thoughtless bunch and the cycle of suffering and complaints continue unendingly.
