You see. Tomorrow we'll still blame Tinubu. Small director of housing don dey feel like Merlin. Imagine if he now becomes LG chairman or commissioner.
Nigeria problem isn't bad leadership. Nigeria problem is Nigerians. All of us collectively.
We are not good people. That's why we expect magic to happen in government but it'll never. For naija to get better, charity must begin at home. Until we start taking accountability, pray how you want, hope how you want, nothing's changing. Even if there's a messiah tomorrow, as long as we don't start telling ourselves the truth that WE ARE THE PROBLEM, it won't matter.

Blind UNN Student Evicted from Hostel Hours After Criticizing Poor Living Conditions

Yesterday, we interviewed a blind student in UNN Nnamdi Daniel to get his view about the school hostel. Listen to what he has to say. Even the blind know how horrible the school hostel is - Alex Onyia pic.twitter.com/WH8V0HbwHw

That were government intervention should come from ideally. They are central authority that can hold the school to account but obviously they are unaccountable too. The only thing the students can do is hold the school to account.

How do you expect students to maintain bedbugs or faulty wires? Instead of studying they should be unpaid workers abi?

If sand too much for blind man soup e go no say no be Crayfish, abi how them they talk am?

bro smelling oozing is enough for the guy to conclude, remember nose is a sensory organ

SeizeTheMemes:
What are you mismanaging when everything is already broken? A friend of mine told me that place has faulty wires and bedbugs upon others. I couldn't believe it. What do you want students to do about that?

You think it's normal for a large number of people in a country to be bad? It's the work of territorial spirits; so, ruling out prayer (which is the major cause of the problem) will just be giving wicked spirits more chance to finish off the people.

Prayer is the answer! Pray for your leaders, pray for others too to be liberated because we can't truly do without each other

When the people are liberated and changed within, you will see the positive results in their words and actions outside.

😂😂😂😂 but some people would say that foreigners love Nigerians and that Nigerians are wonderful, accommodating and amazing people.hehehe lol. The amount of great deception and propaganda being circulated in the boundaries of Nigeria is something else

osuofia2:
Go to hostels and see the way students are mismanaging it,

jice:
But the problem here is still that of leadership, though at a lower level

mcquin:
The problem with your assertion is if you all knew this, how come you all came hard against Jonathan, and not just blame the collective Nigerian?

Tell that to the Japanese.
Prayer without works is as good as dead.
You can't pray your way out of immoral values. Look at next generation Nigerian parents and tell me if they're doing a good job. Prayer makes people complacent.
Raise kids right and teach good values in the nuclear family level and watch society start to change. That's what the japanese do.
And they don't even pray as much as we do.

Ogurube:
Stop talking nonsense.
Humans need to be governed by rules and regulations, otherwise they’d do whatever they please.
Students must not be allowed to make adjustments or abuse the fixtures located on campus, especially electrical and plumbing installations.
Most importantly, in designing and building high-traffic structures, such as schools and markets, thorough diligence must be done in who the contractors would be, to ensure long-term quality and easily-maintainable facilities. More so, there should be a well-stocked and -funded maintenance department ready to clean and fix things before they get out of hand. Let’s stop being primitive with all the education, divination, and travels our people possess and boast about.

osuofia2:
If this hostel is renovated, give it 6 months, you won't recognize it.

It's accepting the truth.
The truth that naija can never get better in our lifetime. It doesn't matter who you put in power. Doesn't matter if it's obi, atiku, kwankwaso.
Even if you have a good leader, there'll always be people like this professor. I was involved in a government contract recently and it changed my perspective on our problems in this country. Whatever you think is bad now, whether it's corruption or bad leadership, is severely underreported.
It's actually way worse.
Way worse that people are undermining the efforts of others even at the lowest positions

Miggs:
@Emboldened

Hogwash!!!
Corruption & a lack of punishment of those who break the rules is Nigeria's bane not any praying nonsense.Infact,i can categorically say,GOD have tire of our never ending prayers.
