Did you really think the world has attained that civilization yet?
How civilized can we really be?
Most of the things we are experiencing now in this generation is almost unimaginable by those who came long years before us.
Have you ever imagined a world governed by just one person, no war (in fact, who do you want to fight against?), no terrorism, no nuclear bombs (to destroy who?), less attention on national security (we need to know how some countries invest millions into security, for what?), etc.
Imagine, no such thing as world powers e.g. USA and Russia seeing themselves the way Portugal and Spain do (security wise, and others).
Should we really feel fulfilled now by what we have achieved on a global scale in the world?
There are countries in the world today that is almost crime free.
Imagine that civilized world where we are not separated by countries or continent. Where corruption of a country can be investigated at the global level. Education up till tertiary institution is almost completely free with almost equal standard all over the world?
Things like top universities are not really relevant because basically, every university in all country you move too is almost equally competent or close.
Do you think these can be the pursuit of the next generations to come, maybe in the next 300, 400 years?
We believe it is a global world today, but are we really global yet?
What do you think can hold us back (Is it religion, etc...)
Is it even necessary trying or worth trying to attain that level?
Sometimes, I just imagine a country like Nigeria having gigantic weapons like nuclear bombs. To fight who? To protect against who? Why do some of the civilized countries with all the knowledge, experience and all that still believe that is the way to go.
If a country like Russia, USA, China,... decides to drop all nuclear bombs, terrorists minding their own business, etc... will that not be a further step towards that civilization?
Please, I would like to know if I am making any sense at all.
Thanks as you contribute.

What went wrong with Somalia after Independence till date?

Why was it that bad?

What lesson can be learned as a Nigerian?

Are we making the same mistake today (but in a different dimension)?

Please guys,
I am staying in Italy. Is it possible to import Yam, beans, Nigerian rice, palm oil and all those stuffs ... from Nigeria to Italy.

Have you ever thought of such like importing your food from your home country to where you stay here abroad now.
Are people doing that?
I am not used to the food here. I tried to learn to each Pizza, all to no avail, i couldn't, especially most of the German food.
I will appreciate your contribution to open my mind.

Savannah Bank Experience - [When people's money where not immediately recovered]

Hi, i would like to know. Why do people look down or hate on first class graduates?
Sometimes, it is almost incomprehensible that the next person beside you or a neighbor is rating you down because you are a first class.
Even worse if you are a private university graduate.
Most people quickly point out practical skills as if it can't be acquired by any first class student.
We all know the good guys acquire special stills outside the classroom - which is not restricted graduates without first class.
They can't just believe you can graduate with a first class and also be practically equipped easily.
I believe first class students / graduates are not robots that can be evaluated within a short minute or just by observation.
Meanwhile, with the backing of good role models, personal development, financial support from loved ones, etc. a first class may also be the best candidate for a job both in terms of practical skills or whatever condition expected.
I have seen people who said and wrote that they intentionally doesn't want a first class grade.
I also believe the quality of education system should be reflected in the grades of the student.
In most of the top universities in the world, a high percentage of students gets good grades, distinction because all the things required to achieve that are effective and well utilized and organized.
Bad grades should not depict good quality but a questionable one.
Guys what do you think about this ?
