MuttleyLaff:
The solution is not only extremely simple
but it's as easy as saying A B C

Eliminate false religion,
eliminate religion that God our Father DOESN'T accept as pure and faultless from the life and fabrics of Nigerians
and we shall overnight become Rich and Prosperous

Compassion. Think!

Our problems stem not from Religion but our inability to think as a Nation.
India is probably the most religious country in the world but they are thinkers.

God help us

Our problems, every other's problems stem from religion.

Stems from religion that God our Father DOESN'T accept as pure and faultless.

What is the single thing, an one word recurring virtue that is clear to the mind in Jesus' parables and/or teachings?

What is the word for the reason why Jesus acted or behaved to the multitude by literally feeding them with real food?

What is this same word for the reason why Jesus acted or behaved to the countless He healed, to Lazarus He raised from the dead, to healing Peter's mother-in-law, to healing the centurion's "servant" etcetera?

I think your analysis is a little narrow.

If I ask you to proffer a solution to our problem, would you say: scrap all religion?!

Certainly Not!

I means our problem is more fundermental than Religion.

Do we have problem with the way we practice religion?
Yes!

Religion as a problem is too blanket a generalization.
We don't think as a Nation.

Dont think. Feel. Feeeeeel me.
Keep your eye on the ball
You think amiss, probably because you were paying attention to my finger and so missed that, I was pointing at

Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life,
and few there be that find it.
- Matthew 7:14

You see, in all what you tagged as "analysis" Jesus actually, was always walking on that little narrow path, being the difference that makes a difference

Now in contrast to the path of selfishness, I might warm up to agreeing with your thinking, that, yeah, the idea is a little narrow
The narrow path, is less travelled by
No wonder, Thomas Dewar, once famously remarked:
There is no traffic congestion on the straight and narrow path.

Paradigm shift will be the solution
Religion that is pure and faultless, is about not how regular one prays, is not about regular congregated attendance,
Religion that is pure and faultless, is not about wearing hijab or burka
I am quite sure sure you're familiar with the story about a priest & levite (i.e. "church" worker) who slipped up, on what pure & faultless religion is

shadeyinka:
Certainly Not!

Scrapping them all, will probably create more problems, than solving any

shadeyinka:
I means our problem is more fundermental than Religion

The problem is the common act of pure selfishness

shadeyinka:
Do we have problem with the way we practice religion?
Yes!

Yay, we incontrovertibly, at least, agree on this one

shadeyinka:
Religion as a problem is too blanket a generalization

Do you agree that the word "religion" has changed its meaning from what it originally meant and/or means?
Do you accept that religion which God our Father, accepts as pure and faultless, predates(d) Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, New Age etcetera?

shadeyinka:
We don't think as a Nation

We actually do think as a Nation.
Too much thinking, we do a lot of cunning-cunning thinking, crooked thinking, perverse thinking etcetera
We do selfish thinking, thinking only about self, what you need or want,
and not thinking about how other people feel or what other people need

Religion is the opium of ignorance
