BabaAduras:


Your statement is painting half the truth. The WHOLE TRUTH is Everybody in Nigeria is corrupt.

Toilet Cleaner that steals tissue papers; Gateman that collect bribes to let you in to submit your application; Clerk/Worker that will not process your file unless you pay; Tax Collectors that prints their own receipts; EFCC, ICPC, Courts, Police, Custom, Immigration, Prison, NDLEA officers; Bank workers and their POS Operators; Pastors, Imams, Babalawos all lying to get money; Petrol Station Attendants; Yahoo Boys and Girls and their parents; Journalist that collect Brown Envelops to publish stories or to distort stories. The list can go on and on and on until we get to everybody in every facet of life in Nigeria. All those mentioned are not Political Office holders.

WE ALL ABUSE WHATEVER POWER WE HAVE FOR MONETARY GAINS. THAT IS CORRUPTION.

The most corrupt, in my opinion, are those that collect egunje to vote for political candidates. They are saying to the politicians - give my share now, you can go and recoup with interest in any form you chose over the next 4 year.

Until we all accept responsibility and stop passing the blame to others or people in power, we are moving nowhere. A school of political thought says "The Leadership is a reflection of the Followership". This is premised on the fact that the Leadership is a subset of the Followership. In a simpler term. The Leader is selected from the Follower.
You spoke the whole truth.
In my opinion, the citizens are the major problem of Nigeria, not the leaders.
Bad citizens don't deserve good leaders.
We only get the kind of leaders we deserve.
The truth is: It is almost impossible for a good man to win election in Nigeria because Nigerians don't deserve good leaders.
If Peter Obi is really a good man as we perceived him to be, then he should rest and stop chasing shadows. He should stop trying to lead corrupt people because truly, Nigerians don't deserve him.

What has he contributed to fix the problem? Is it Kenyans that will fix it?
Did he not run away with his family?
If he loves Nigeria he should come and fight in Nigeria,open gyms and inspire people
Nigeria is this it is that. Who is responsible for fixing
come and fight in Nigeria ke? Ask Bash Ali that tried it. He was frustrated and disgraced by officials of the sports ministry and the Nigerian Boxing Federation.
If he attempts it, sports ministry officials will demand bribe, state governments officials will demand bribe, even agberos (youths) will demand their share before they allow any show.

Then which venue can host such internation events without the security, power and logistic challenges that is unique to Nigeria.



Is India not corrupt?how many times do you hear Indians running their mouths stupidly about the country
Yes we know say yansh dey smell, we no go throway am. We dey manage ourselves.
If you don't have solutions
Shut up

Yes India is corrupt, but our own is on another level. Corruption is a culture here. India would never install 75 WiFi points for N24 billion. India would never buy 10 fire trucks for N12 billion.

Prime minister Mordi does not fly to London, Paris or Saudi Arabian hospitals to treat common illness.

My point is not whether Nigeria is corrupt or not?.So we need to understand each other before reacting.
We all have different perspectives. If We had the same life would be boring..
I do not see the purpose of his statement . It achieves nothing useful.
We all know this before he was born
That is how I see it


If he cannot be part of the solution it is better to be silent
With regard to whether a fight can successfully be held in Nigeria
Nigerians can do anything they set their minds to.
Once upon a time Mighty Igor came to fight in Nigeria
The alternative is to surrender and give up on Nigeria.
All this lamentations Nigeria is this Nigeria is that
Who made it so? Is it Camerounians?
If Nigeria is to be fixed is it Egyptians that will fix it?
We need to look at ourselves and stop talking as if it is aliens making Nigeria unpleasant

I love how Adesanya is not corrupt but it's the Nigerians over there that are corrupt. Buhari isn't corrupt but it's the Nigerians over there that are corrupt. Wole Soyinka isn't corrupt, it's the Nigerians over there that are corrupt. The idiot poster that come on here to pontificate how and why Nigeria and Nigeriains are corrupt is not him or herself corrupt, the Nigerias over there are the corrupt ones. KANU is not himself a zoo beast, it is the Nigerians over there that are the zoo beasts. Chimamanda is not corrupt, it is the Nigerians over there that are corrupt.

Hypocrites!

People think that countries just become great,that they have a right to a great country
No

Those countries that we look up to today worked very hard for

So rather than lament that the compound is dirty get busy with a broom
Do yours own. Contribute. How many people have you lifted,reoriented or mentored. What have you contributed?
There are 200 million of us all hoping God will answer their calls God will not do that

We have to work hard for another Generation to get the country we want.
Nigeria is a reflection of the people living in it.
No one here on this thread is willing to accept any responsibility for how Nigeria is. It is somebody else's fault.

There is corruption and almighty racism in America but you won’t hear the western media(especially CNN) air such or do a documentary on it but thanks to a channel like Aljazeera. It’s funny watching the Russia invasion of Ukraine in the perspective of the western media but they didn’t even do the same when UK and the US invaded Iraq. They were even calling Iraqis that were fighting against them “Insurgents”The west really do know how to cover up their shits unlike we Africans.
