D question I asked u is this:

"How does blaming leaders in govt prevent them from doing their jobs".

U are writing epistle on what I didn't ask u. Unfortunately ur attempt to put d failings of country on d shoulders of d people backfired because if d president can't make d sectors under him functional, then he has failed & of no use to Nigerians and to Nigeria.

Section 14 (2b) is d job description of d president. Meanwhile, u are yet to answer this question:

"How does blaming leaders in govt prevent them from doing their jobs".

this is the answer to your question: the leaders are already doing their jobs and are already doing it execellently, it is the nigerians in establishments that ruin everything. you have just said i wrote an "epistle" - thats an unwarranted personal comment and before you know it theres a trade of words....

hope the question has now been answered....

lexy2014:
How does d people blaming d leaders prevent d leaders from doing their jobs?

Let me break it down for you.
NEPA
Almost everyone in NEPA accepts bribes - they care no iota about power supply to nigerians or doing their job properly - they just want to exploit the populace. There is nothing Buhari can do about this. There is nothing a state governor can do about this. So long as nigerians are willing to give bribe and side deals and nepa guys are willing to accept it - issues will continue to exist.

ROAD
Nigerians will not stop on the red light and break traffic rules - there is a limit to how many people police can chase before they get tired esp when the person they catch will ask "do you know who i am". buhari cant enforce road traffic regulations, lastma frsc etc can but ultimately its up to the nigerian people to stop being monkeys

KIDNAPPING AND RITUALS
same thing here the nigerian people need to decide to be less materialistc.

NEGLIGENCE
in hosppitals, duty posts, fire service etc - these are issues of discipline. few days ago i went somewhere. one guy was supposed to be checking covid 19 temperature - the guy was playing with his phone and didnt do his job properly.... no governor or "leader" can change these - nigerians need to decide to be serious and stringent.

KingAzari:
With the way the level of insecurity in the country deteriorating, don't be surprised if they establish their next base in Daura.
Nothing surprises me anymore in this country under the current leadership.

The leadership has been same for past 60 years. The problem with Nigeria is the ppl who also love to blame "leaders"

He didn't go there to be a billionaire, he wants a much better standard of living. And in terms of percentages and actual numbers there are way more dollar billionaires in USA, UK and Canada than in Nigeria! <--- Let that sink in!

Very true! And those billionnaires live quiet lives
.... you won't even know!

oruma19:
With long life, God satisfied him because he made life beautiful for us as lagosians. I went to free school from pry thru secondary because if this man. May God almighty vless his descendants to the 10ty generation. Baba Jakande is the greater politician I know after awolowo. His name will live forever.

No it was the effect of British colonial rule.... the foundations the British laid were still there and gradually fizzled out. Free education is a British thing. Even today everyone in uk sends their children to school for free...

Omihanifa:
Nigeria should stop relying on Petro dollar if she doesn't want to be going and coming out of recession everytime, there are so many areas /sectors in the economy that can generate enough foreign exchange for the country which the federal government is not exploring. Sectors like agriculture, tourism and mining can generate so much foreign exchange if adequately taken care off.

Most importantly the country should stop importing and start producing so that there won't be so much pressure on the naira.

the ppl to execute are nigerians not "leaders". mining workers sleeping on duty or playing with phone on duty/ giving excuses, nigerians taking advantage of tourists or using them for rituals, herdsmen attack farmers etc. for the country to progress, it is nigerians that must change their ways, culture and mentality - the "leaders" can only guide - its eventually up to the people.

greggng:
My first encounter Leith this great man nearly made me have hope in one nigeria . I visited him at his ilepeju home ,...he welcomed me like a son ....I told him I was looking for a job .....he simply ask the Secretary to write a recommendation letter for me to any establishment I intend to work ....my effort was frustrated at west African milk .....Nigerian factor started playing out . I thank him for doing his part ....I wish we have selfless leaders like him....Nigeria would 've moved forward

you acknowledge Nigerian factor - thats the issue with Nigeria and not any "bad leaders"

Olayetan:
RIP to the best governor Lagos ever had

jakande may have been good.... but it is the work of the British that made nigeria good then....

Furbish:
Adieu papa!

Jakande's legacy still endure! In his time he gave us classrooms, he served us real food.

I remember in the early 80s while I was in pry 2 and 3. We had good teachers.

The syllabus was strictly adhered to. Education was so good.

Growing into adulthood, I later knew the Ajah road LCC recently upgraded was constructed by him.

The day I met you at the airport was a day I won't forget. Gentle and angelic. Our gaze met. I felt and immortal grace, and it left a mark. Thanks for giving us Lagos.

You already wrote your epitaph with celestial ink, on stones so precious.

Thank you Baba Kekere!

the good things you enjoyed in the early 80s were the things the british built and was not specific to Jakande. notice how nigeria has deteriorated since the british left...

Further evidence that Africa is spiritually cursed....

DaddyRochie1642:
From the story up there, that man was killed by his "Friend".


I've always had a great hate for that particular Word "Friend" ..... Another word My Soul despises With passion is that word "Bestie".


Spits In Disgust

Friends are only dangerous when there is an income disparity i.e. one has money and the other doesnt.

Gokada CEO fahim saleh was slain by an aide turned friend. The aide had bought fuel and wood he was going to use to set the body he had cut to pieces ablaze. The aide was a black man.

PervertProphet:
See your stupid analogy and logic.
God is racist but lol He is the one who created the different races. Mumu. If I am a teacher of a class and I teach all my students so you mean that they will all turn out with same ability like they are some robots. God has given man everything he needs to excel. If your race refuses to put in the smart work rate like the other races and instead choose to be just consumers instead of producers then don't come blaming God.

You unreasonable pathetic clown that have refused to use your brain playing victim with your miserable life while waiting to push the blame on God for your failures.

The rest of all you wrote up there is pure idiocy and don't need no response. Go learn about Science properly before you come to spew half of what you don't understand.

You don't understand history. You don't even know your Science but you slowpoke is trying to position as some sort of God critic. There are several black inventors who invented stuff just that as a collective race we have not been upping our development. Go read some books and quit your illinformed work of being an arm chair God critic.

Even the Evolution subject you are trying to act as if you know anything about that subject matter. When I start pointing out all the illogicy of it. You won't be able to respond.

All these Nairaland Arm chair God critics that have not even read enough to understand any subject except what you sick lots read of some online articles.

Blacks have only "invented" basic things like cup, broom.

Onuoha1234:
Ñigeria will not miss you. You remain there as second class.

What's the benefit of being 1st class citizen in Nigeria?? A people that can't build a functional society after 60 years of independence.

eejo:
I love Nigeria and nothing can ever make me to say such a statement. Currently, am in Europe to make money and will surely return to my Father land. There is no place like home.

Nigerians lack the capacity to develop their country. But they do succeed individually.

eejo:
I will and increase my investment in the country. All the problem you have mentioned didn't start today.

Go ahead then

Brendaniel:
but you said all men should die?

I said all men should unleash their violence on themselves.... the remaining few new will be sperm donors

Brendaniel:
and then the female problem will start, you all will grow old and die

We have cats, dogs, intimacy gadgets, sperm donors, IVF.

Brendaniel:
So let's assume your payers are answered and all the men kill themselves, so would that solve the problems females get from men?

Yes it will.

holluwizzy:
I wonder what's really going on.

I almost killed a guy trying to play with my daughter. He is in custody now.

Parents , becareful.
Do not trust anybody with ur children regardless of gender.

You almost "killed". Men and violence. Animals.

Brendaniel:
You can still pass your message without demonizing men, the problem a lot of people have with you are the choices of your words, not even your agenda, are you the only woman championing feminism on Nairaland, try to construct your words without demonizing the male gender and making it look as if there is a war between the male and female gender, only then you will not be tagged as a male hater....

The male gender ought to be demonized due to their atrocities. They kill themselves..... and then turn their violence to women. They should focus on just killing themselves na. They are also so stupid that they kill themselves over women. They lose focus at the mere sight of a woman. They will rob their bosses and give the proceeds to women. Lol.

Cousin9999:
BULLSH*T.

Oyinbos are constantly looting the entire continent and placing their stooges in government.

And even with that evil being done, we still have successful, brilliant people rising every single day.

Even with racism abroad, Africans regularly embarrass id1ot oyinbos by living better than them in their own country. Oyinbos get to be losers and mediocre, and still get things handed to them through racism. Nigerians in particular excel with no advantages other than hard work, talent, and values.

F**k oyinbos.

Then drop the car smart phone laptop roof top and airplane they made and retire back to your mud hut you cursed black man that loves playing victim.

when you come back you will face sars, herdsmen, ritualists, non functioning police, rogue money oriented hospitals.... hope you survive them all.....

CSTRR:
Aspire to McGuire.

Nigeria is underdeveloped because it is highly corrupt.
Simple and short.

Resources that should go into providing a productive environment are channelled away to corrupt hands.

it is highly corrupt and has a negro population.
therefore, we can conclude that the propensity of negros for corruption/ quick gains is much higher than international average.

Bullman:
Inferiority complex is what Africa as a whole is suffering from

inferiority complex is only part of the problem...

the second part of the problem had been expounded through the centuries. there was a time in canada when blacks were not allowed to immigrate there by virtue of being black; similar discriminatory laws were passed in the US. As individuals, black people are great, its when you have large groups that their problems often depicted in their countries arise....

black people are wicked to themselves and have not built any successful country...

doxijaw:
The most radical piece have read on nairaland in years.

Notice the lack of comments , meaning this is not interesting.

The African is "anti intellectual", only interested in entertainment/quick gains

this is why kidnapping and money ritual is rampant here... quick gains is the culture of the negroes.....

Bullman:
China Japan and most developed countries arent so religious like Africans but they are smart enough to know the miracle u seek may not be found in a church or a temple but can also be found in your brain.
If blacks were worshiping christ and the whites came to africa with ogun amadioha sango , and told blacks jesus/jehova is not d way but sango and ogun are, i am so sure we will be having lots of shrines in almost everyones backyard now
I really dont know for sure in terms of technology what africans have offered to the world to make it a better place. More than 50 countries in africa non was even involved in creating a vaccine for covid. Africans folded their hands and waited for their white God to offer a miracle when the whites went to work and finally came up with a vaccine. If colonisation havent happened , i am sure we africans will still be living in villages with d men hunting and gathering like prehistoric Neanderthal humans. For the guy above that thinks africa will be great u know thats a fat lie
I have a question to ask God someday why he made one race(africans) kinda dull and the others really smart

no madagascar came up with a covid 19 cure but they were bullied and silenced by WHO and the West.... google madagascar covid 19 cure. madagascar president even complained the world was ignoring the cure because it is from Africa....

1Sharon:
They have no economic sense

No society can ever grow without the essentials:

Education

Healthcare

Law enforcement

A lavish mega religious centre does absolutely nothing for the people. They siphon money and nothing is given back.

someone is admitted to the emergency unit of a hospital, the nurses are non chalant. the person dies - the nurses burst out laughing saying i no go use hospital work kill myself. thats negros for you. or a doctor tells a patient he or she needs an operation even when the patient does not simply so the doctor can make more money.... thats negroes for you....

Nairalandian:
I've always asked, "Is Africa cursed?".
All of us, are we cursed?


There's always a huge development gap between black countries and white countries.
From Black African countries to the Caribbeans, all black dominated countries are useless.

Turn to the book of Genesis chapter 9 and 10. Noah cursed Canaan to be a servant of servants to his brethren. The book of matthew makes it clear Jesus came from the lineage of Shem. Japheth is the progenitor of Gog/ Magog and the European peoples.... In Psalms, Egypt is referred to as the land of Ham - Egypt was a centre of sorcery....

Africans have truly been servants of servants to the white man. 80% of nigeria wants to go to white countries - canada, uk, ireland, europe etc to work and live in fulfillment of bible prophecy....

From all indices, indications, etc, it would seem Africa is cursed spiritually.

ekerintee:
IT IS foolishness,No place Like Home .i have spent years away from naija and i dont have Plans of living my old age abroad.outside naija is for hussle .Life in naija is sweet when you get Money ,infact sweetest place to live.let him ASK nigerians in diaspora.when you have Money what are you looking for outside.he has Not faced discrimination.its cool to Visit Home once in a while . Some of this countries we envy took time to Develop their country,its Not a one day Thing ,even thou naija is Bad now,am still proud to be a Nigeria .

Nigeria is "sweet" but this is only from a social aspect. the culture of the inhabitants is unserious and grossly irresponsible. this is why nothing works... you will enjoy nigeria until one day it fails you - thats when you will vow never to come back....
