Vanhooijdonk: You are the one with comprehension issues because you don't understand the central issue which is that there is nothing Ghanaians, South Africans or even Britons can do for us we cannot do better for ourselves. If dullards like you key into the vital concept that change begins with each and every one of us then you would not be running around proclaiming your juniors, and those less talented than you, as your messiah. The change for Nigeria can only happen from within and can only be driven by Nigerians so stop embarrassing us online asking every Tom, di.c.k and Harry to come and colonize us. It is self-loathing Nigerians and sell-outs like you who allow others to insult Nigerians they cannot ordinarily square up to in an arena of ideas and merit. |

Oshigun:We have had our chance since 1960, maybe we should try something different. We have had kingpins of corruption run the country to the ground. I do agree the change can only come from within. It was just an alternative suggestion. |

Vanhooijdonk: "Bad leadership" that precludes you right? The best nations are driven by the high quality of their human resources and not leaders alone. I know many Nigerians willing to spend 5 million Naira on UK or US visa, a risky gamble at most, yet they cannot put same amount in the many lucrative start-up businesses Chinese, Koreans, Lebanese, Indians et al are flooding into Nigeria to take advantage of. Abeg Oga park well. You are another moaner with nothing to offer who thinks others must do everything for him. 1 Like |

Vanhooijdonk: Stop talking rubbish. Run what country into the ground? In 1960 what was Nigeria? Not a vast bush? At independence we had NOTHING. Get that into your thick skull. Not even a single university, after 70 years of white rule. Today we have 200 universities educating our people courtesy of the same ''evil Nigerian leaders'' you keep demonising. Today you can read, write, travel, start a business on your phone, courtesy of those same ''evil leaders''. Could your illiterate, barefoot grandparents under British rule do any of that? Britain that ruled you for nearly 70 years, and in that period built you not one university, not one factory, not one power plant (our first was in 1964, Kainji dam), not one expressway or major hospital. Not one major industry or engineering facility. As recently as the 1950s, our national soccer team toured England and played their matches BAREFOOT, because under British rule, they had not been introduced to football boots. ALL YOU SEE IN NIGERIA TODAY that makes life liveable was built by those same Nigerian leaders you demonize. You need to stop, because without Nigerian leaders who stressed mass education after independence (when literacy rate was 5% unlike 75% today), and built thousands of schools, you would today be an illiterate village palm wine tapper or hunter of cockroaches like your grandpa/great grandpa. 1 Like |

Austine1212: Really? So why don't nations invite millions of immigrants to their countries so they can have ''bigger revenue and access to funds''? Instead the reverse is the case. They create borders and man them, to keep immigrants OUT. Get this. As a developing nation, you are at a disadvantage if you have a huge population. You have many more mouths to feed with your meagre resources. That is why most developing nations of Nigeria's size have severe social crises with regard to provision pf public services. Nations like Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh etc These are countries with 200 million plus populations, and they are all similar to Nigeria in terms of public services deficiencies lie power cuts, poverty, etc. Developing states like Ghana, with just a few million people, and a large resource base, are at a definite advantage going forward, and will always find it easier to provide basic services to the majority of their people. 1 Like |

I pity you sha. the brainless one. This ediot doesn’t know what he is saying. Do you know who are talking to? In every military operation, landing of troops is the most crucial part. On that fateful early Sunday morning when ecomog troops landed at the Free Port of Monrovia amidst shelling by Charles Taylor and his people, which group of ecomog troops first landed on Liberian soil? Me and my colleagues, led by our brave commander General Arnold Quaynor were the first troops to land on Liberian soil. The nigerians thought the landing under General Quaynor won’t be successful so they will blame Ghanaian troops. They didn’t know God is not like an Alata man, as we say in Ghana. The Ghanaian troops landed successfully despite our being shelled by enemy forces. Immediately we landed, we fanned out through Vai Town, Clara Town, Logan Town and also secured the Free Port, for Nigerian troops to land as well. I am giving you the names of the areas in Monrovia, around the port, to tell you it is not fiction LOL Do you know why nigerians troops were slaughtered like chicken in Liberia. One key reason was that they were given inferior kits by their governments. The Nigerian contractors who were asked to provide kits and weapons to the troops were actually buying inferior kits and pocketing the money you should have seen some of the helmets they gave to your soldiers in ecomog. They were actually helmets (not bullet-proof) worn by okada riders . Chai, Nigeria is never a serious country how can you give fragile helmets worn by okada riders to troops in combat? Rossikk: |

IronGalaxy:Black ruled countries that are progressing are:Ghana,South Africa,Namibia,Rwanda(Kagame can show a little more respect for human rights though) and Botswana. The reason these countries are progressing is because they have reasonable leaders who loot with sense. Their politicians steal, but make sure they have 24 hour electricity,Universities they can send their kids to and hospitals that can attend to their health care needs Nigerians fantastically corrupt politicians are brainless:They loot money for hospitals like the tyrant Buhari and take a 6 hour flight to UK or Germany for medical checkup,they loot money for the Universities and take a 6 hour flight to UK or 18 hour flight to USA to visit their children. 1 Like |

IronGalaxy:The other countries are mentioned are not so developed when compared to Europe and America even SA is way developed than kenya, another thing helping them is small population. Take kenya for example, they don't produce up to 3000 megawatt of electricity but they have constant light, Nigeria produce about 5000 megawatt but don't have constant light. When we talk of developed country there's really very few in Africa, we can say Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia and maybe south Africa, but definitely not kenya or ghana |

charliboy654:South Africa cities can rival many European cities. The predominantly Dutch settlers who ruled the country developed most cities to Dutch standards before they handed power to the blacks in 1994. There has been massive corruption in South Africa since 1994, but not enough to completely destroy all the infrastructure that was handed over. For example South Africa has been experiencing power cuts and they found out there was embezzlement at Eskom of funds budgeted to help improve the generation capacity. Unfortunately corruption is a big problem in Africa . Key government officials are willing to sabotage their countries to become rich overnight. |
