Who Is To Blame For Nigeria's Problems? Leaders Or People? by ibedun(op): 5:32pm On May 26, 2009
I am conducting a research into the root of our on-going, unceasing economic and political problems. There are times when I blame the 'leaders' and times when I blame the people. Our 'leaders' come from our people and they express and manifest the mentality and backwardness of our people. Please I need all the help I can get from articulate, thoroughly thoughtful, aware and matured Nigerian - from any walk of life and location but preferably those who are resident in Nigeria.

The leaders are the people,the people are the leaders,vice-versa.A case of a vicious circle.

How do we break the circle of inherent ignorance?Just a generation can change it,all it takes is consciousness.

Your leaders are as you are. They are just a reflection of who Nigerians are.

Leaders in all aspects of national life- traditional, religious , business , professional , academic , political, labour and ELECTED leaders.
They should lead by example

Compare 2009 you made this post to now
Then ask yourself if the people you voted for were able to push Nigeria forward or backward
And what you would do to make Nigeria better.

The people, and the leaders come from the people

Saner climes use their resources to make exportable goods. Nigeria sells its resources and tries to share the money, but because the money is not enough and because sharing money encourages corruption and stealing, we are always broke.

And it won't change if we change leaders, although I am hoping we vote out APC in 2027, because at the end people want extra money at the expense of the economy.

Nigeria has a lot of resources, yet imports stuff we could have easily made with those same resources. Which country does that?
