I Miss The Days The Military Were In Charge... by Chiefwandungu(op): 8:52pm On Jan 17, 2016
I know this will stir some emotions, but I really do miss the military days. We really didn't have many of the problems the country is facing now. Yes, they ruled by force but some things worked. These politicians are just exchanging insults and trading accusations amongst themselves and stealing the country blind. Smh! NIGERIA

Well the reversed meaning of your post is that Nigeria can only be ruled by an iron fisted leader






.. Why are people complaining about Buhari's method?

Why, because your brother the lamba king lost an election?

Is he the first to lose?

Military rule or civilian rule, Nigeria is where it is today because the country does not work, and has never worked

And was never designed to work. It’s just a British business that grouped different kingdoms and ethnic communities into a place they called NIGGER AREA Territories.

Yet you as a BLACK can not go to Europe and join different groups and give them a pet name LOL

You except it to work when ipob liters everywhere with crime and killings? How will Nigeria work for people ipob destroyed their properties and hijacked their vehicles for killing operation? Even if millitary era is returned, it can't command kind of respect it had in those days because crime mongers like kanu and ekpa had grown to brainwashed Biafran youths to take up harms against military plus using internet as tool of abuse to push ipob propagandas.

IPOB TERRORIST, You and your gang of vandals are the ones making the South East “not to work”.

No investor even THINKS of moving to the South East due to your violence, intimidation, and the suppression of your population there, with your UNDEMOCRATIC, forced MASS IMPRISONMENT of the entire population, which you imperiously and fascistically call “SIT AT HOME”, leading to the loss of countless millions of man hours, lost investment, and real+potential JOB LOSSES leading to more of your people FLEEING THE REGION and going to settle in other regions and stretching THEIR resources, leading to heightened national dysfunction.

The funny thing about this comment is that people look back and think that life under army rule was better...

LOL...it was not. It was bad, NEPA was still taking off light, water supply was just as bad then, and the naira was falling and we were still collecting debt.

Infact under army rule, that was when japa became a thing. Weak naira too, became a thing. even 419 became a thing. Religious riots....live and direct. Boko ...yes o. VIolent armed robbery....live. Bad economy and rising cost of living....well well.

The problem with Nigeria is that our economy relies on oil. Instead of us to deal with that, we blame the west , blame everyone, and all our governments since independence do the same shitty economics over and over again.
