20CRATES: I am sure you haven't forgotten about the doctor that jumped from Third Mainland Bridge so soon. Or the countless other stories of people hanging themselves. Or the ones drinking sniper. Like I said, there is not a single shred of reliable statistics to verify this claim. For something to be considered fact, there must be proof. But if we are just throwing around opinions, then here is mine; Nigerians are the most frustrated and miserable people in world who have grown tired of their situation and lack the will to do anything to change it so they have settled and accepted their fate. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Pidgin2:Is that all your 'schoolness' could come up with? No intelligent rebuttal? See, no one loves this country as much as I do. For years, my sister has been on my neck to relocate and meet her abroad. But I have always turned it down. But truth be told, this country is messed up. It's not an issue of black man mentality. It's the truth. 1 Like |

Opinionated: Since Dogara is looking for the root cause of corruption, please can someone show this to him. When Buhari and his APC masquerades are ready to fight corruption they know where to start. For the time being, they are just jokers toying with the minds of their zombie followers while stealing more money and doing absolutely nothing hence the corruption that we have now. Two years of vision-less governance mostly spent in London hospitals despite trillions trillions budget, Buhari has turned the prosperity handed over to him into recession. What a calamity. What a waste. |

20CRATES: I beg to disagree, but being resilient is not the same thing as being happy. Those two adjectives reside in two different worlds, and are not mutually exclusive. Mind you, the absence of evidence is far from being an evidence of absence. Nigerians are still in the habit of attaching stigma to mental illnesses and disorders—a spectrum in which "depression" so happens to fall in. If a child says he or she is depressed, the average Nigerian parent would likely advise such a child to toughen up, or in the worst event, such a parent would impute blame to an invisible, spiritual entity and launch into a heated spiel of violent prayers, when all that sufficed was to pay a visit to a mental health physician. The habit of stigmatizing mental disorders sadly is one cultural meme we've not fully come around to seeing its demerits and adverse psychological effects. And I fear it would take a while before we reach that level of awareness. That being said, it's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a loop than it is for the average Nigerian to admit openly that he or she is depressed. I think I have debunked your claim to some extent, by informing you that the only reason you don't hear cases of depression among Nigerians is because of the social stigma that is ensuant to one admitting that he or she is depressed. 9 out of 10 Nigerians are depressed in some way. Don't take my word for it, go out on the streets with a vetted psychologist and conduct a psych-eval on 10 random people. That many Nigerians have not being clinically diagnosed as depressed doesn't make them any less depressed. But I do not disagree with one thing though, which is that Nigerians are incredibly good at lying to themselves e.g. in convincing themselves that majority of her citizens are happier than the rest of the world. What grander kind of national self-delusion could there possibly be?! There can be no abundance of happiness or joy in a land of religious strife, and poverty, and injustice, and hopelessness. 8 Likes 2 Shares |
