NIGERIA made history in its 2015 presidential
elections. In the March 28-29th vote, deemed mostly
free and fair, Muhammadu Buhari became the first
opposition leader to eject an incumbent president at
the ballot box. Goodluck Jonathan, whose People’s
Democratic Party (PDP) has been in charge since the end of military rule in 1999, accepted his loss with
grace. He will step down in May, leaving his long-time
political foe in charge of Africa’s biggest economy
and its most populous nation. How did this democracy
come of age?

Nigeria is a rich country full of poor people. Despite
pumping roughly 2m barrels of oil per day, most of its
population lives in abject poverty. Much of the blame
for that falls on elected politicians, who have spent
years lining their pockets with the booty. Billions
disappear from the accounts of the opaque state- owned oil company. A rainy-day savings account was
depleted even when prices were high. Even worse,
government members are accused of involvement in
industrial-scale theft, which plunders 100,000 barrels
of black gold a day. If corruption and theft were not
enough, Mr Jonathan’s government also failed utterly to stop Boko Haram, whose six-year-old
military campaign has cost 15,000 lives. Workings of
the country's electric power network is little better
than in the days of the military junta, millions of
children are out of school, and healthcare is a
disgrace. Each of those issues is a shameful indictment of the PDP, which has had both the time
and money to make improvements.

A lack of political accountability may have had
something to do with that poor performance. In the
past the PDP faced little opposition. Rival parties were
small and appealed to narrow regional and ethnic
interests. Mr Buhari, who swept to power in a coup in
the 1980s, had contested three previous elections without coming close. His chances changed in 2013,
when four of those parties merged to form the All
Progressives Congress (APC). On this ticket, the
dictator-turned-democrat rode the wave of national
discontent like a pro. His reputation as tough on
security and corruption grew legendary. A clever campaign positioned him as the face of “change”
for Nigeria. Once this might not have mattered; the
government would have rigged its way to victory
regardless. This time, biometric-voting technology
made fixing the outcome more difficult. Mr Buhari,
who hails from the predominantly Islamic north, won overwhelming margins from devoted disciples there.
Yet his party also made unprecedented inroads into
the central and south-western zones. That dispelled
conventional narratives about sectarian voting, and
showed that Nigerians, not just northerners, were
ready for new direction.


A peaceful handover will be transformative for
Nigeria. For the first time its people feel they have the
power to hold their politicians to account. It will also
send a meaningful signal across Africa. After years of
progress, democracy on the continent has slid of late.
Leaders in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and the Republic of Congo have made moves
to extend their terms. There is much they could learn
from Mr Jonathan, who did more in standing down
than he ever managed in leadership.

lt seems our politicans has been stealing since independence if not how can a former teacher build this house though it looks cheap compared to the manisons our present day politcans are building.We are praticing lootcracy.

Then when developing your region was paramount,the central government was not so attractive and there was healthy competition among the three regions each developing at there own pace according to their resources.................Nigeria needs to revert back to regionalism we might be better

Esther Okade is a 10-year-old British-Nigerian
student
She recently enrolled at the Open University in the UK
Already top of her class scoring 100% in a recent
exam
Took A-level exams, a British secondary school qualification, last year

At first glance Esther Okade seems like a normal 10-year-old. She loves dressing up as Elsa
from "Frozen," playing with Barbie dolls and going to
the park or shopping. But what makes the British-Nigerian youngster stand
out is the fact that she's also a university
undergraduate. Esther, from Walsall, an industrial town in the UK's
West Midlands region, is one of the country's youngest
college freshmen. The talented 10-year-old enrolled at the Open
University, a UK-based distance learning college, in
January and is already top of the class, having
recently scored 100% in a recent exam. "It's so interesting. It has the type of maths I love. It's
real maths -- theories, complex numbers, all that type
of stuff," she giggles. "It was super easy. My mum
taught me in a nice way." She adds: "I want to (finish the course) in two years.
Then I'm going to do my PhD in financial maths when
I'm 13. I want to have my own bank by the time I'm
15 because I like numbers and I like people and
banking is a great way to help people." And in case people think her parents have pushed her
into starting university early, Esther emphatically
disagrees. "I actually wanted to start when I was seven. But my
mum was like, "you're too young, calm down." After
three years of begging, mother Efe finally agreed to
explore the idea. A marvelous mathematical mind Esther has always jumped ahead of her peers. She sat
her first Math GSCE exam, a British high school
qualification, at Ounsdale School in Wolverhampton at
just six, where she received a C-grade. A year later,
she outdid herself and got the A-grade she wanted.
Then last year she scored a B-grade when she sat the Math A-level exam. Esther's mother noticed her daughter's flair for figures
shortly after she began homeschooling her at the age
of three. Initially, Esther's parents had enrolled her in
a private school but after a few short weeks, the pair
began noticing changes in the usually-vibrant
youngster. Efe says: "One day we were coming back home and
she burst out in tears and she said 'I don't ever want
to go back to that school -- they don't even let me
talk!' "In the UK, you don't have to start school until you are
five. Education is not compulsory until that age so I
thought OK, we'll be doing little things at home until
then. Maybe by the time she's five she will change her
mind."
Efe started by teaching basic number skills but Esther
was miles ahead. By four, her natural aptitude for
maths had seen the eager student move on to algebra
and quadratic equations. And Esther isn't the only maths prodigy in the family.
Her younger brother Isaiah, 6, will soon be sitting his
first A-level exam in June. Source: http://edition.cnn.com/2015/03/09/africa/esther-okade-maths-genius/index.html
