KingOfAmebo: Here's a trending article I read on the world's most popular forum Quora.
"Opportunities once flowed in Nigeria as abundantly as the Niger River, but that narrative has long changed.
Nigerians, known to be resourceful, educated, and fueled by ambition are leaving the shores of their motherland in droves, not in a casual drift but in a frantic exodus.
They're running from a crucible of crises that boils and overflows, leaving a residue of despair with no extinguisher in sight.
A country of numerous resources has become a labyrinth of misfortunes. Governed by the worst of leaders who have weaponized poverty for their selfish interest—that is, when patriotic Nigerians rise to question, and fight, the government, their opponent would be fellow poor Nigerians, fighting tooth and nail for the same politicians who have kept them so.
Nigerians find themselves locked in an ever-intensifying cycle of multi-dimensional problems. From economic chaos to sometimes, unbearable insecurity, the nation's woes accumulate like sediment, each layer more crippling than the last.
The government that the masses put their hopes on as custodian of public interest, has turned the country into a family enterprise, brokering ill-advised deals that mortgage the country’s future. Deals that have dwindled the Naira's value like melting ice.
Petrol prices have soared skyward to three times what they were just months ago, pulling along dreams and ambitions into fury flames.
And yet, our leaders plead for patience in a land where patience has bled dry. With this reality, the rich find their escape routes, seeking refuge in developed countries that offer a semblance of stability, leaving behind poor Nigerians tethered by financial constraints.
The only thing that seems permanent in Nigeria has become the disheartening truth that our yesteryears often outshine our tomorrows. This mass migration of Nigerians isn’t just alarming but frightening—a "brain drain" as it's called, because it's the middle class and skilled Nigerians who are leaving the country in droves.
Those who can no longer wait for the dawn are chasing the sun elsewhere, hoping to find what has become elusive at home— a life of value, a life worth living.
Nigeria has, year after year performed below expectations and for every emigrant, the implication is clear: faith in the motherland has eroded, leaving behind only the skeletal remains of what was once a thriving belief in a shared future that Nigerians can unite and make something out of themselves for the good of everyone who calls Nigeria home."
prickahantas: Jail the murderer but no mercy for the olosho neither. She knew she was dating a guy with no verifiable source of income yet she stayed because she wants to oppress.
Freshtruth: Forget incumbency Tinubu can be defeated by 2027 if Atiku n obi contest on different parties they are fools if obi goes back to PDP and he is given the presidential ticket plus party structure I don't see how Tinubu will survive
THIS SELFISHNESS OF ATIKU AND WIKE HAS CAUSED US ALL THIS TRAUMA AND
THE NEGETIVE EFFECTS WILL REMAIN WITH US FOR YEARS TO COME.
THEY SHOULD HAVE ALLOWED OBI TO BE PDP'S PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDIATE PERIOD.
emmanuelbrown26: I doubt if prof truly said dis, if he did, it means that prof really bleeped up. Prof u didn't say anything when judges were interpreting d law upside down Prof u didn't say anything when Tinubu's certificate issue was raised.. Was Obi d only contestant? Atiku took up d certificate issue to US, and no Yoruba born of a woman has ever said anything to Atiku, but always want to flex where igbos are involve.
A SORDID PROOF OF HIS UNALLOYED TRIBALISTIC TENDENCY, DESPITE WHO HE IS IN THE SOCIETY.
wink2015: Nigeria needs a constitutional amendment that will allow all sections or geopolitical zones access to the presidency.
The election that Prof. Soyinka is assuming that Tinubu won was supposed to be zoned to the south east region of Nigeria.
But bad constitutional system is creating the exclusion of the Igbo from the presidency.
If this trends continue it might leads to a situation were the United Nations might have to intervene by conducting a referendum for the realization of Biafra.
Other regions that feel aggrieved might want to seek for self determination.
ABSOLUTELY.
NIGERIA WILL NEVER REMAIN TOGETHER IF THEY CONTINUE IN THIS MANNER.
