Why Jonathan, Obi, And Tinubu Can’t Fix Nigeria With The Way It's Structured by KendoXR(op): 6:26am On May 08
The news is buzzing again, Jonathan, Obi, Tinubu, 2027 politics everywhere.

But honestly, none of these men can truly fix Nigeria with the way the country is structured.

We spend years arguing about elections while abandoned projects, rolled-over budgets, and failed policies keep piling up. A project starts, people complain online for one week, then everybody moves on.
No documentation.
No public memory.
No accountability.

That’s why I’ve become more interested in citizen-driven spaces like Majoori, where people try to document local projects and discuss what’s actually happening in their communities instead of only arguing during election season.

Because if citizens don’t build accountability culture themselves, 2027 may just become another cycle of promises.

No one can fix Nigeria as long as people are still interested in getting 72 virgins....I can tell you that the major problem of Nigeria is insecurity and we all know where it is coming from and how determine they are to secure there 72

I honestly think insecurity itself is also a symptom of deeper structural problems. When communities have high poverty, unemployment, poor education, abandoned projects, and no accountability, frustration and instability grow faster.

That’s part of why I believe Nigeria focuses too much on personalities and too little on systems.

What you can't do, don't say others can't do it. Knowledge is different, so is will power

The use of words to deceive Nigerians may take forever to end.

What do you understand as restructuring in this contest as used?

In the context of my post, I mean restructuring more around accountability and decentralization.

Too much attention is focused at the top while local governments and communities remain weak, even though many problems are local in nature.

A country becomes harder to manage when everything depends on Abuja, while citizens have no real structure for tackling poverty, unemployment, tracking projects, or holding governance accountable beyond election periods.

That’s the kind of restructuring I’m referring to.

You are right but I wonder why someone will ignore the people who have impoverished us all an start targeting their fellow opresed citizens...it is illiteracy just as you said anyway...

It’s because it’s easier to see the person next to you than to reach the person at the top who is actually calling the shots.
The frustration is real because we’ve been pushed to a point where everyone is just surviving, and when people are in survival mode, long-term thinking feels like a luxury they can't afford. But that’s exactly how the people at the top keep winning, they count on us being too exhausted and scattered to actually keep track of what they’re doing to us.

After shouting southern yoonity they grabbed and snatched and the reality has dawned on them that a faaake certttifficcate hollldderr can never favour them and their families.

Suddenly, no one can trsnsform the country because their aim is to shift the blame away from the failed incompetent guru str**tegist.

The objective of this thread is to stain everyone with the Red oil of failure and incompetence that if their failed guru str*tegist is a monumental disazter, then no one can salvage the country because there is no hope for the country since the faaake ocean tamer has failed

Mr @OP before you start crying, condemn the snatch and grab teev and his failed maladministration of mandate snatchers before you blame everyone except the faaake certttifficcate hollldderr

My post is not about defending or attacking any particular politician. In fact, part of the point is that Nigerians often become so emotionally attached to political personalities that deeper structural issues get ignored.

Every administration should be criticized where necessary, including the current one. But beyond individuals, I think the country also needs stronger systems for accountability, local economic development, and long-term governance continuity.

grin cheesy

This format, we have seen before and it is a regular occurence by those who chanted sai darling daddy and today it will favour their families

Let e ask you a question. Since when did you start to have this opinion ? Yesterday, today or what.

Why is it now that you have suddenly realised that their are structural problems when the hope you thought will favour you is now disappointing you. Did yoi write this during the time of GEJ ? Why not. If you did Show prove. I am 100 % percent sure that you were part of those who gathered at Ojota.

Now that reality of the faaake certificate holder is hitting you, youbare not condemning him, never condemned him bit you want to throw every other person under the Bus and wear them the gown of "cannot do anything" because the failure you defend as öroven to be a mega disazter

Haha, it’s just a smaller discussion/community space I’ve been spending time on lately.

People discuss local issues, politics, eyewitness reports, mental health, and even advise government on community problems. I just got tired of seeing important conversations disappear after a few days online.

Fair point, but I’m not trying to shift blame from anybody. The current government should absolutely be criticized where necessary. I just think Nigeria’s problems have become bigger than one politician or one election cycle.

Ok! Then this kind of restructuring lies with the judiciary.

Nigeria has a weak Judiciary which stem from the presidency.

Making laws is nothing without an enforcement

I agree enforcement is a major part of it. A lot of good policies and laws already exist on paper, but weak institutions and weak enforcement reduce their impact.

That’s also why I mentioned accountability and citizen participation at the local level, because pressure and documentation from communities can help expose failures earlier instead of waiting until things completely collapse.
