5 Reasons Why Nigeria Will Never Be Great. by mekaboy(m): 11:09am On Nov 30, 2019
Some people will say I am wishing Nigeria bad luck, while some religious one will say it is a negative confession. Well developed countries did not develop by luck or positive confession.

Forget what your pastors tell you about Nigeria in the name of prophecy, those things are wishes and not from God.

Here are the 5 major reasons Nigeria will never be great.

1) the leaders of the count don't believe in the country. I don't have to start talking about how they buy property abroad, send their children to study abroad etc. We already know.

2) the citizens don't believe in the country. Things our leaders do and get away with it, would have set other countries on fire. We prefer foreign clothes, food etc to ours. Everyone is minding their business and act as if sowores rights are not being violated. People from other countries are even more concerned than Nigerians.

3) We borrow to consume while other nations borrow to develop. We borrow to feed the over bloated federal and state governments and have nothing left to invest. The entire nation is working to feed the government and it is not enough. More borrowing is needed to feed the government. As long as we continue to run this luxurious style of government, we are heading for the rocks.

4) So much power in the center. This is the reason there is so much nepotism and struggle to produce president from a particular region.

5) Weak institution. I think this is the most important thing. The judiciary, police, Tax, anti-coruption agencies are not independent. They are controlled by the center, that is why things don't work here. In developed countries they try as much as possible to ensure the government does not interfere or influence their operation.

If you overspeed you get a ticket even if you are the president and you pay the fine. Tax is static and every individual of organization has to pay according to their category irrespective of who they are. Everyone has the right to invite the police to resolve conflict and get justice from the court no matter their status. In this part of the country, the court and security agencies are used by the rich to intimidate the masses.

Someone can always call someone and taxes and fines are waved

So as long as these factors remain, no prophecy or seed sown in religious houses can make Nigeria great .

GOOD. Mine.
1. TRIBALISM: the masses dont vote the better candidate but their tribeman. That is one of the big reasons.
2. PARTISAN POLITICS: even though am a die hard PDP guy but truth be told, both APC and PDP has nothing to offer Nigeria. I think these two are the major reasons

They vote based on tribe because they don't believe in the country.

They vote tribe because there is so much power at the center.

Terrorists who kill Nigerians are set free because a region is in power at the center. While sowore will spend xmass in custody.

The vote for tribe because the institutions are compromised and influenced by the centre.

TRUTH. but my own opinion though

OP, it seems the motive behind this thread is to drum up support for sowore.

Nigeria can never be great. I hear some people say Nigeria will be great again and I wonder when it was ever great.

The factors dividing Nigeria are such that can only get wider.

No nation can ever attain greatness with the current structure.

Who hasn't seen how Americans love and are willing to die for their country. Can any Nigerian do that?
It's always all about self-interest, nepotism and empty promises from politicians. Even the few that really want to do the right thing are frustrated by the system.

It's not about swore, but it's an example of a failed decaying nation. Weak compromised institutions and a citizens that care less about their country.

I can't agree less. Our weak institutions are a major obstacle. Nigerians would rather create strong men who will protect their interests, than make the institutions work.

A lot of times the politicians are just sent their as a compensation package, how can one expect patriotism from such.

The only reason why Nigeria shall be great again is that God Almighty will intervene and wipe off the entire evil oppressors....


Their seeds shall never have a say again in this country......


Then a new generation will crop up.............


Our generation will fulfil this...
