I repeat stop living in denial. Nigeria does not consist of just the heavenly area where you dwell, it also consist of the shithole where I dwell and the Plateau villages where Fulani herdsmen ransack frequently.

So my good friend step outside your comfortable heaven and visit the rest of Nigeria, then come back with your feedback.

Thanks
Nigeria is great, could always be better though. And like I stated, thank God the rest of Africa is now fantastic so you can move some place and leave Nigeria alone.

That's why we need restructuring to start with

A situation where 3 major tribes and other smaller groups are fighting for national cake can never bring any progress.

Development in Nigeria will only be possible when government at state level can initiate and implement a policy without waiting for Abuja.

The NHIS can work comfortably in Abuja or Lagos or Akwa Ibom, but to say you must cover the entire country at the same time, Fulani, Yoruba, Igbo and others depending on the who heads, decides that it is their turn to "chop money" and the entire program would be crippled

I wish this write up could be read on the floor of NASS.

Sorry to say but this country needs a war to reset it. All the ingredients that makes a war can already be found in Nigeria.

THERE IS NO STRENGTH IN DIVERSITY.

Either we tell ourselves the truth and divide the country peacefully or we sit and wait for the war that will come.
War!?

If you know what you're asking for and get just a trailer preview of it you'd delete that post of yours.
You definitely must be a teenager who has seen too many action movies

We are living on borrowed time as regards war, provided we don't restructure. If we don't fight our children will fight. Tick tock tick tock!

Nigerians are good at fighting the weak and later complaining how the strong men took everything.

Go on a protest tomorrow they would say u are looking for a government post.

Foolanis, ma'am, are a drag. They're everywhere. From government through the streets. They're uneducated bunch that inexplicably run the affairs of the nation.

Not all are uneducated...it's not the Fulani but our orientation as a people must change

African nations are always at war largely because of stupidity and external exlpoitation of that stupidity. External exploitation is like he or she who plants a large mirror in the realm of the apes. The black apes on sighting their reflection, let rip the roar of reckoning and hurl themselves at the mirror repeatedly until mirror shatters, cut and probably kills them. The white ape hurl self at the mirror once or twice then works out that the nature of the mirror is like the nature of the river by the banks. He sits in front of the mirror a while then turns and points his ass at the mirror in order to find the flea that is bitting it's ass.

Sort of, grin

Anyway a part of the point being where there is ruin or dilapidation there is mony to be made by the wise. Capitalism is the economic philosophy of liberal democracy. Lack of maintenance is more a symptom of paucity of capable individuals in the liberal democratic nation than it is government fault. In a socialist or communist state, government is entirely responsible for maintenance of the infrastructure. Dirty and broken toilets at all Nigerian airport is opportunity for the entrepreneur to fight for contract . Part of the reason war in Africa is boon to the West is because war leaves behind lots of broken things for the companies of Western entrepreneurs to fix.

Liberal democracy is not for Nigerians if Nigerians expect government to fix everything.

And they will keep winning elections because they have the backing of the over populated north and the sympathy of the religiously sentimental in the south.
Bro, Hausa have no choice. They were conquered long ago. Now the foolanis are planning coast enlargement.
