There are more stinkilng rich people now than anytime in the history of this country. It is just the poor that's getting the short end of the stick. The poor Nigerians that I knew way back eats well,until the 80s when poverty pro max started. This widespread poverty and lack of expansion of infrastructure like running water is the result of massive corruption. I limit expectations and don't expect dividends of democracy from any of these politicians,when it is a known fact that money changed hands before majority of present day politicians achieved victory.

I appreciate the fact that you said you limit your expectations from the government.. everyone shouldn’t wait for government to fix their life for them. Everyone should fix theirs first.. there’s lots of chances of making fortunes in Nigeria but when you adopt pessimism you kill such chances.. ire ooo

How can you make money from self employment if local, state and federal government officials are stealing the commonwealth that should employ civil servants to make public utilities and services available for everyone?

How can you make money from self employment when leaders looters are stealing what should provide basic infrastructure to facilitate life for all?

If oyinbo people allow their own leaders to steal anyhow by focusing only on self employment instead of expecting government jobs, why would we be attracted to their cold, racist countries

I’m sorry for the advices that’s being given… in case you have problem with the government go and sue the government and there’s no need to come here on Nairaland to nag. Comments on this forums won’t get to the Government

Was unemployment as high as it is today since All Promises Cancelled, APC came into power chanting change but delivering shege? Shege of extreme poverty and insecurity, enhanced by worsening corruption.

Lastly, as for unemployment. How many jobs do we have that we all want to be employed into in this country? This is the reality of Nigeria. Going to higher institution of learning is not enough. While you’re school, you should be engaging in order skill development engagement.. if we don’t learn new ideas and innovation how do we intend to survive when starting up businesses even require capital. We must learn to create possibilities ( possible ways of surviving and making fortunes) for ourselves. If you don’t have Job now be sure that you’re engaging in learning ideas now. If you’re wondering to what to learn. Go and learn installation of solar panel or CCTV. Solar is the future of anything that has to do with power. Meaning that in nearest future every household will be making use of solar. Think of other things that you know that can give you the future that you deserve. Don’t wait for anyone nor the government. Peace

From all you listed, it shows that Nigeria is actually retrogressing. Even the farming you talked about is a plus. It is nice if people have gardens where they farm as it shows the availability of lands and organic food in the society.

Yes if you say Nigeria is retrogressing, I will agree with you because we have neglected things that were working for us. In the year 1993 , I remember vividly that our neighbor then was a secondary school principal, he had 2 grown up boys that were in SS classes and other children. Farming in those days was a normal thing for every household. This man and his boys usually farm all their farm crops year in, year out. E.g all the cassava that will later be processed into Garri and cassava flower that the whole family of 6 will eat all through the year, same with ebery other grains that the family will consume all through the year and there will be excess that will later be taken to Market for some money. He was a secondary Principal who was also earning salary.. all they had to spend their money on was petty things like fish and sometimes meat because his trap usually catches animal. Now with Technology advancements, everyone wants to be the tech guru, oil and gas business mogul. People prefer white collar jobs by so doing abandoning our natural or normal way of life as Africans. Everyone wants to move to the city, with inception of yahoo, young folks are not willing to learn anything but they want to blow like Wizkid or hushpuppi.. our food production as growing Population country is another factor to talk about. Is our food production outputs sufficient enough for our population? You see we have lots of factors that are causing Nigeria’s current situations. One of it is Migration other occurrence like the banditry issues.. brotherman we can’t finish this debate about why this country is like this today. My advice. We should all work on ourselves as individuals because you see those that will be power in the nearest future are not going to be people that are not part of us.. there can never be a good leader if we don’t have good followers because the leaders will emerge from the followers. It’s Monday morning I rest my case here.

Telephone became widely available after the sector was deregulated over a quarter century ago, not so?

Was public transportation better then, making it easier to move around and about?

By the way, why don’t you consider the availability of pipe borne water and free education for all children as signs that life was better and easier back then?

Mobile phones (GSM) was introduced sometimes after year 2,000 except those that were using Turaya and not everyone can afford it then. yes there was Pipe borne water and free education as you've mentioned but don’t forget that before lots of student would go to school back then they would have to hawk one or two items to sell or even after school, let me remind you, nearly all family usually have small or big farm that they are engaging back then.. and some will have to go farm first before thinking of going to school and that was why food production was sufficient back then except if you reside in Lagos or some other cities.. do we still do the family farming as much as it was in the 90s? Life was good but there were other things missing which the new generation are enjoying like the technology advancement. If you attended higher institution then you would know what it means to get your Medical done or if you have to borrow materials from the school Library. With the use of internet and AI you now have all information at your palm.. even in the 70s when they said Nigeria was better. They were also suffering and majorly of Nigerians back then are living primitively. Like I said earlier things will never be the same.. we should be sure that we don’t stop evolving.

Na so o. The good old days when we had prosperity, peace and stability with cheap petrol and less debt burden.

All these things changed for worse when Tinubu went to Kaduna and begged Buhari to make Jonathan a one term president in 2015.

This was just four years after master strategist Jagaban of Borgu called the same Buhari expired old soldier.

Why do you think that Tinubu did this for his fellow northerner Buhari

You spoilt everything by mentioning Tinubu.. truly gone are good days when there was nothing like ethnicity and religious differences like it is now. There was but not as much as it is now.. you said everything became worse when Tinubu when to Kaduna. But you’ve forgotten the POOR MAN PRAYER back in the days “God Dey” and the general saying back then “Nigeria go better” even though there was less to be worried about back then life wasn’t easy for an average individual.. how many houses had access to Telephone, Television or adequate health facilities let alone of having a car. You see, this is reality of life.. things will never remain the same and that’s why as individual you shouldn’t be stagnant. As much as you can make sure you’re evolving..

Charito1:

Sermwell:
Stop fooling around!! NDC that's just less than 8 weeks of formation??

But you’re avoiding the reality of the fact that your darling NDC can win a single election.. 4 years from next year will be very long for you guys..

Charito1:
ogbeni stop being mischievous here. When was NDC formed? Or you just want to troll yourself.

Oh you know that. But when we try to tell you politely that the party you’re supporting can’t win general election.. like your trademark you abuse us.. you can’t make your point known without using foul words.. I’m not mischievous, you guys are only being delusional

You can’t be serious.. NDC no win for there ?


Una mind no go touch ground.. make una prepare for what’s coming to you Zombidients

No NDC ? Sometimes i wonder how the obidients are expecting their principal to win General election when you don’t even have enough grassroots followers.. Congrats to the Gov. as for the Obidients.. please be sure to check your BP regularly 😂😂😂

Gotocourt:
