As citizens, I think we have a responsibility to support the Government and hold them accountable in the way they spend our money. Failure to do these, Nigeria can never evolve. As we are approaching another critical election, can Nigerians do any of these:

1. Pay Tax
2. Pay Road Tax
3. Pay Insurance on residential building
4. Pay Television license
5. Pay valid insurance on automobile

The answer is no. Nigeria is not designed this way. For you to achieve it in Nigeria, you will have to redesign Nigeria which means there will no longer be a Nigeria. Nigeria was designed to be what it is now.

If you position is true, then why are we expecting drastic changes abd development from incoming administration? We cant have any meaningful development without shouldering those responsibilities. We cant continue to live like this and expect Nigeria to look like Dubai or US.

Do we have good roads in Nigeria?

The taxes that has been collected what impact has it made.

Replace hospital bill with health insurance Nigerians will gladly pay because they have been paying for hospital bills

In conclusion Nigeria haven't had a competent leadership since it's independent

Yes we can if we have a good government getting those tax, IGR and using it well for the good development of the nation rather than doing a bad job, pocketing the funds and sharing crumbs to the masses

Has the same government effectively utilised the ones entrusted in their care? Is it not a sad tale of embezzlement and corruption news flying all about?

When you are trusted in fewer things, you will be trusted in bigger things.

You cannot achieve this where the colonial law upon which Nigeria is built forbids private land ownership unlike USA or other countries u compare. Land ownership means that you own your land and whatever is in it whether mineral or agricultural resources and can choose to use it to produce and sell what u want. Not that govt claims ownership of people's lands to take and allocate or sell to thejr friends, family and former colonial masters. People adequately pay tax from creating wealth as proper goods and services from their natural resources, and not when they are hungry and begging for salary like slaves.

So before asking your questions, ask when will Nigeria abolish that colonial land law to blocks people from owning and using their private lands and resources for industry and trade.
