God is just fair. 44 years after presiding over the commonwealth, you want all of them to remain alive?

How many of your innocent secondary school class mates are still alive and doing well?

Our lives are in the hands of God.

According to the law of season and time. Their time has pass and there's nothing anyone can do about it. Just like those will have today and soon their time will pass and they won't have any say in Nigeria politics.

Jim Nwobodo is Anambra State, not Enugu


**** Jim is from the present Enugu state but was Governor of Anambra State, not Enugu. Enugu was created in 1991.

I see the children we failed to train yesterday quoting me.

But it was Enugu State that inherited everything while your new Anambra State was operated from rented apartments from 1991 to 2001

The truth is that it was only the name of Enugu State that was new.

Thanks for the correction. I don't even know most of them. And to think they were important people, o ga o! Life is transient.

What's the point of this nonsense? Is it to remind us of the failures we have allowed to run the affairs of our beloved country?

Nigeria has in deed outlived all these failures cum looters.

Nigerians need to be educated or enlightened really. cool
Comrade CHILL...
These people owe us nothing. They led this country in those days when people still have integrity and the fear of God in power. They are not the ones that ruin our country. Most of them left power and still live average lives till they died, that is why we never hear about them and even their children.
The people that ruin this country are:
those that rule you when you were a kid, and now that you are an adult, they are still ruling you...
those that made the news in politics when you were not even born, and today, you still hear about them or their children...
those that left power only when the constitution disallow them to continue, and yet, they do everything within their power to install their chosen successor...
those that may not be actually be in power, yet single handedly select and install people in power, and you are busy cheering them and calling them godfathers...

These are the people you must blame for ruining this zoo... leave the above mentioned innocent ones alone.

You've just displayed one of the major problems with an average Nigerian grin...SHORT MEMORY!

You probably think our problems as a country started yesterday. History books/lessons are there to remind us or jog our memories on what carnage these past politicians collectively brought upon our dear country. You probably forgot why Fela was screaming CORRUPTION on top of his voice in every of his album.

All these former Nigeria leadership had done very well for Nigeria they really served this nation with little resources at their disposal then. All of them didn't acquired wealth at the detriments of their respective states and Nation that is why Nigerians remembered them. May there gentle soul rest in peace.

This is a big lessons for the present cropped of leadership that has nothing in mind than to looted Nigeria and there respective treasures. Acquired properties everywhere forgetting that " Vanity upon vanity, all is vanity"

That is why this system will end and usher in a lasting future where there will be no more death.

Imagine it.

Hiw many of those who are dead do the living remember. Hardly so and with nothing rewarding for the dead even when people do.

There is however a lasting future.

You sound like you want to run away from this argument.
See, arguments are good when based on facts, but it is pointless and a waste of time when based on assumptions and sentiments.
Be serious and bring up your facts to proof your point - that our past leaders (those who ruled in the 70s and 80s) are the ones who ruined this country, and I will show you my facts to proof that it is our present leaders (90s till date) that actually ruined this country.
Also, you may open a thread on this topic for people to debate with facts and you'll be surprised how majority of people here will proof you wrong.
Try this and don't be tired to seek the truth.

Well you have to admit that they are constantly improving. Example, compare the number of people killed by Covid to other pandemics (below). If nothing happens and things just keep going the way they are going, it may not be in 2030, but it is almost inevitable that man will eventually achieve immortality
