What is the reason for the follower's backwardness, bearing in mind that the leaders often graduate up from followership? Therein lies the problems. A docile, corrupt (morally and otherwise), evil and wicked followership can't transform into a good leadership overnight. Our problems are ingrained and in our DNA. It is a race thing, not just continental Africa but with blacks world over. 1 Like |

Nemesis909: Have you considered that Christians are equally encouraged to study and research more often than not? If anything, the Nigerian church has done well in their foremeost drive to improve educational prowness in our society.

The problem with 'religion' though is the shutting down of critical reasoning amongst its adherents which causes extreme behaviour that perpetuates bad leadership such as a tendency to violence on one extreme and extreme docility on the other. That is why the argument of mixing religion with state affairs and politics always arises which should not be. Religion is meant to enhance the inherent quality of citizenship which reflects in the quality of leadershio. Without good quality citizens you cannot have good quality leaders. Who chooses leaders for goodness sake, who empowers and sustains them... the citizens, the religious citizens of course. No one can simply rise up and take leadership without the suppprt of the average citizen. To have good quality citizens you need to have an educated and inspired citizenship. These empirical values stand against what most functions of modern day religion projects. When and how does faith and reality meet and mix. How can you build a better now if your eyes are set ONLY ON HEAVEN OR THE THEREAFTER. 12 Likes 4 Shares |

The plaque that erode every possibility of development in Nigeria are religious bigot, tribalism, and wrong people in politics. These problems have dashed every possibility of development in Nigeria and Africa at large. And worse of all is the inability of most Africans to think independently. Everyone just follow the trend helplessly. 7 Likes 3 Shares |

Dov3:Some churches don't subscribe to drugs. I knew one church during my childhood, they don't go to hospital, even during child birth, they believe it's against their faith. There's another group that don't allow blood transfusion, even at the point of death. It's in africa you'll hear people drinking jik or eating grass for deliverance, these beliefs are against proper education. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

/ Africa is bad because of Africans. Religion is like a gun--useful but deadly in the wrong hands. Africans chose to thread the wrong path of religion. Saudi (the land of Mecca) and Israel (the center of Christianity) are doing a whole lot better than Islamic and Christian African countries. Go figure! If only Africans will learn to be logical instead of emotional will they progress. Dearth of logic means that they can easily be manipulated and other races are cashing in on their puerile exuberance. / 3 Likes 2 Shares |

Religion is.. it makes the followers kinda retrogressive especially with respect to accountability, people don't wanna question 'higher authorities' or elders.. they prefer to pass the bulk to God to 'do it in his time' & blame devil/village people when things go south.. many religious see using practical based/scientific approach as lack of faith, do you know I grew up seeing the hospital as a bad place and the doctors as carriers of evil report.. imaging such mindset in about 80% of our populace.. until we learn to QUESTION our leaders: Political, religious, family (head of the house) etc instead of only praying for them, our mumu Neva do.. So yes! religion issa big problem. 8 Likes 3 Shares |
