Mcleo007:
You’ve spoken the hard truth, and honestly, your point reflects a deeper sickness in our society. The way people like Ochacho suddenly rise to wealth and fame, with no clear pathway, no transparent story, no demonstrated expertise, is exactly why Nigeria keeps sinking. We celebrate overnight billionaires without asking basic questions, and in doing so, we normalize a culture where success is detached from competence, discipline, or any real contribution to society.

One moment that really exposed this was when Ochacho was interviewed and asked what advice he would give his sons on how to be successful. Instead of offering wisdom, principles, or even practical guidance, he simply said they should “believe in God, trust God, and things will work out fine.” That was it. Nothing about hard work, strategy, education, innovation, or character. Just the same vague religious platitudes we hear from almost every overnight billionaire in Nigeria.

And this is the problem: when people who cannot articulate the foundations of their own success become role models, the society loses its sense of direction. We start celebrating shortcuts instead of systems, luck instead of labour, mystery instead of merit. Young people look at these figures and conclude that success is about connections, sudden miracles, or unexplained breakthroughs, not about building, learning, or creating value.

Until we stop elevating people whose stories don’t add up, and start celebrating those whose journeys actually teach something, we will keep sinking. A society becomes what it praises, and right now, Nigeria praises the wrong things.

“believe in God, trust God, and things will work out fine.”

Do not hold on to a survival job! Do not let an employer deceive you that the future will be better. I have seen a private employer not paying their staff for 8 months and the employees kept staying and impoverished their lives. Learn to count your losses and move! Walk like Jonny walker!

The retired General also urged the five South East governors to establish a coordinated security fund and engage retired military, police and Department of State Services personnel to support community-based security initiatives.

He said veterans possess valuable operational experience that could be deployed in training community security personnel, intelligence gathering and strengthening cooperation between communities and conventional security agencies.




He equally backed full local government autonomy, arguing that functional councils with direct access to their resources would be better positioned to tackle grassroots challenges, create opportunities and prevent some social problems from developing into security threats.

Lagos has no villages.

There are more people living in kano villages than those living in the main town.

It is two different population dencity.

Abi una are illiterate that you do not know what population dencity is.

Conurbation has taken over Lagos with the exception of Epe and Badagry which will happen when the economy improves. Lagos is more populated.

A conurbation is a large, continuous urban region formed when multiple independent towns, cities, and urban areas grow and merge physically.
