Caseless:
We don't even have a collective national resolve that we want to make progress or grow, there's only a national resolve to steal. The resolve is, those inside should steal their own now, and those outside are waiting for their own turn to get inside the system and steal their own, too.
When those inside are out, they begin to complain about what they failed to fix while they were there, and those outside before, who are now inside stop complaining about the systemic problem or ignore them completely because it's their own turn to steal and feel insulated from our general problems. You don't talk while eating.
When they're out, they begin to complain again and the "circle" continues. That's what you see Jonathan doing now. That's what we always do.
His Goat and Yam theory is the best way to fight corruption, i've come to realize - even though he was not really serious about fighting corruption.
We have the most selfish population in the world. People hurt the system for their own gains and it's the norm.
No nation grows operating like we do and something is fundamentally wrong with us as a people. Brilliantly captured assertion. I couldn’t have typed this better myself. Very rare to see another Nigerian that know Nigerians for what they actually are. |
