opribo:What part of Authority is responsible for its maintenance? Is it NEPA? What branch of NEPA? If it is a branch of NEPA responsible, who heads this branch? Do they have Works vans and branded technicians, contact phone numbers? Do people see these Work Vans and technicians regularly going about business of fixing relevant utilities? As Americans would say, in short, where does the Buck Stop? Much of Nigeria’s issues are to do with disorganisation and, stand alone enterprises, i.e. without supporting enterprises, are a part of disorganisation. |

It is possible to convincingly argue that disorganisation is Nigeria’s apex problem and factors Nigerians place higher are symptoms of this.We need to compartmentalise responsibilities better so that Authorities and citizens know exactly where accountability lie. I like to employ the term industry in description of organisations because the term industry describes many linked processes. So for example, ill say hairdressing industry, security industry, road sweeping industry, policing industry, thieving industry, sports industry, maintenance industry etc. Things will not work and endure as stand alone enterprises they will fall apart or become dysfunctional. |
It is possible to convincingly argue that disorganisation is Nigeria’s apex problem and those factors which Nigerians place higher than disorganisation are usually symptoms of disorganisation. |
billyG:Relative aspiration is the course. They are individuals that want more than whatever it is that they have at this point in their lives. Individuals Wants are unsatisfiable, which may lead to deviance. For this reason, primordial societies evolved traditions that are informed by norms and values and laws. |
Samfloxin:What of the people whose wants are aggravated by what those people want leading them not to want what those people want ? |

All Dongonyaro needed in that picture was a cigar. Such a tough and formidable looking General. Rip |
billyG:Starving people steal food if at all. These are relatively aspirational but amoral individuals. People like these are likelier to pull up rail line with the intention of making money for themselves at the expense of death for others. Starvation and relative poverty isn’t the cause of amorality. |
TheGoodJoe:Don’t stop there, please give examples on how Europe, China and America developed by first empowering the people. And how you’d go about developing Nigerian people before investing in infrastructure like railway, how long you believe this would take and how you’d recognise that the people are sufficiently developed before investing in infrastructure? He that builds the City without first building the man builds the City in vain.Are you writing about god? How do you build the man before building the city? |
billyG:I've starved before and I’m here to tell you that starving people do not have the energy to go about destroying things. |
SUFFERInSMILIIN:Most African countries is too vague for the certainty you appear to have in this your repeatedly expressed view. Fifty four Nations are in Africa, Kenya, Tanzania, South Africa, And Rwanda hardly constitute Most. Could you therefore please list all the African countries that are in your opinion economically and politically ahead of Nigeria that we may go through them one at a time to see how your views hold up? I keep an open mind and am always willing to learn and expand my knowledge base. Thank you. |
truthshots3:What for you does success and resolution look like? |
Lurker4Long:Apologies, Lurker, i meant to quote the poster before you and the one below you now. I meant to quote Truthshots3. |

Nigeria is one of the few places in the world if not the only country were wealthy and poor people live in same area and often cheek to jowl as neighbours. Yet some have the temirity to cry, Elites live big or Elite don’t suffer! In subconscious appeal to the West about Nigeria’s supposed class injustices. You’d think we are meant to be the physical manifestation of the communist ideal. I say communist ideal for in reality privilege elites exists in Russia, China and North Korea and even here they do not live in close proximity with the less privilege. Nigeria has many unintentionally great but unrecognised attributes. |
1x2x3:In the AD2000 comic novels, Judges were a type of Police Force unit that had the power of legal prosecution and sentencing. This was introduced because society had become too violent, criminality rampant, overwhelming the legal system. Society needed to process criminals quickly through the system to meet demand and clear backlogs. The Judges Police unit had powers to levy charges, (fines) and sentencing of criminals to death or prison on the spot, which is without recourse to the lengthy court process. Nigeria could do worst than adopt some of this and then people being held until they "pay some amount" will be seen as paying legal Fine and not corrupt and illegal Extortion. The British politician Kenneth Livingston ones said that the West eradicated corruption by legalising it. |

Not all murderers and killers are psychopaths, so not all murderers have these eyes. Many internet generation people have this same, wet, unblinking stare, too that I’ve attributed to lack of sleep. Eh, Yes, I know pictures can’t blink… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gI7uosvU8G8 Internet eyes / psycho , dreamy, wet and unblinking stare eyes https://phillymostwanted.org/files/IMF100000/520c6b9169374a79bbc265704c4ff83b.JPG |
nobleiyke4biafr:Some of you so-called Biafranists are beginning to sound like Lennie Small in Of Mice and Men. Novelists John Steinbeck chose the title, ‘Of mice and men’, from the following line in a Robert Burns poem: "The best laid schemes o' mice an' men”. Essentially, if you're any older than 16 years of age, life’s experiences would have thought you that the first clue that somthing is going to turn out wrong is when you start eulogising and dreaming of how wonderful a thing you’re planning will turn out. ![]() It’s like a group of mice living in a barn and always having their numbers cut down by cats and terriers. One day a charismatic leader tells them of a wonderful place in fields outdoors where they would be able to live happily, surrounded by nature and without fear of cats or dogs. They would live happy carefree lives; live to be old; live to see their children and grand children and generally exists in the splendour it was allotted by the gods that mice should enjoy. In this Promised Land, mice wouldn’t have to worry about food because grain trees would surround them on all sides. Eventually the mice are led to the fields by the charismatic leader. And indeed the place is wonderful, with its open blue skies above their heads, and tall grain-trees on all side that would provide them food and cover from the worst excesses of the birds whose wonderful music they would enjoy without penalty of death. Shortly the mice set to work building their elaborate borrows under the earth, they sing and laugh as they excavate the earth. While the adult mice construct their new home, little young mice run around the grain-trees, their laughter and happy shrills fill the air and, with sound of breezes rustling through the bushes and chirping birds high above, the world never seemed better. The farmer that owned the fields also thought it was a splendid day. In fact, a preciser day for long hard work, he’d never known. The corn never seemed more golden as he hollered at his workers to fire up the combine harvester machines. |
Good one. Build to last if you lack a maintenance culture; for instance, mix compounds that add pigments to cement if you’re not going to regularly paint the buildings in your estate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9X063fQ3D10 |
Hmm, looking at the map and applying my “Africans are Sneaky and Nigerians straightforward and unable to see what’s going on” formula, I conclude that any Borno/Yoube configuration will really be all about France stealing parts of Nigeria for Cameroon like they did with Bakasi. No Borno/Yobe nation is going to exists for long, any such thing is just trick. In time, they’ll be part of Cameroon. I wonder what resources lie hidden around the Lake Chad shores. |
https://africadailynews.net/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/Nnamdi-Kanu-2-1-768x432.jpg Kanu has the Psychopath’s Gaze. Some young people of the internet Generation exhibit similar Gaze, which I’ve labeled the Internet Eyes. The Psychopath’s Gaze and Internet Eyes are marked by a kind of quiet, seldom blinking, limpid, and almost sleepy, sad stare. I’m supposing that sleep depravation accounts for the Internet Eyes and have increasingly come to wonder whether insomnia isn’t an unrecognized cause of psychopathy. Outside of this, participants of US military’s water tank Sensory Deprivation brainwashing experiments exhibits some of Kanu’s internal quite appearance. |
Christistruth00:Are they even in Nigeria? |

I was loosing hope because I thought we, Nigeria Army, had exhausted every tactic, formation, used up every advice available and yet Bokoharam were still causing problems, now we know Nigeria army has not even began planning, they’re not yet serious. |
