By the way the politicians still do this amongst themselves to ensure that their inner caucus don't betray them.

So no big deal really

there are capable people to build roads here in Nigeria for the right budget




but d politicians get a certain type of inner joy when they bring Chinese to do nonsense for us

You are right. They say NIGERIANs won't do a good job.

I remember the first tenure of Amaechi in Rivers State, he kept saying his contract will be given to people from Rivers.

An average Nigerian won't be serious when you give them work to do. We are good at giving excuses, eventually Amaechi had to bring in Julius Berger

My suggestion on this is that we should use our higher institutions for some of this project. Every very good road should be good branding for a University or polytechnic.

The school will raise money to grow, students will learn, and imagine saying that beautiful bridge was designed by a student of 300level in the department of architecture in Unilag. A lot of people will get inspired

The student becomes an intellectual celebrity that can be sold worldwide and bet me that is job waiting for him.

So you spend the same amount that creates an economic and patriotic chain for the people

This is how you create intellectual celebrity. As a government, let Tiwa Salvage, Davido, Wizkid and Lagbaja spend sometime with him and take a picture. Just sell the student well. That is how it is done.

how are u paying for knowledge when. u buy. car?

You are buying the knowledge that put it together. All the materials used to make the car are under the ground. You need to educate your people. You just have to.

The knowledge in China is quite cheap but in America is very expensive. Thesame car made in America and in China will cost different amount.

We are not really educating ourselves. We are not.

Education is key.

It is not natural to read your books when you have The Johnsons to watch. And that is why the government most work very hard to package the educational system well to encourage people.

A lot are of good things are happening in this institutions. Project them to the world to see.

if they bring sango now and sango asks for 10 virgins, who'll sacrifice their daughter??����

Sango's job is just to supervise the oath

mogivethanks:
There’s need for total overhauling. People vying for public office need to stop using provision of good roads, health facilities in their manifesto. By now those things should be automatic and in place

I totally agree. It is just unfortunate

mogivethanks:
true that considerable number of Nigerians have a way to evade tax but as a white collar job holders you have no choice except you don’t work for a registered company. So yes, people pay tax and even tax authorities have been pressing Nigerians in recent years.
Compare tax revenues in recent years you will see

Yes, more people are paying tax now compare to before but there is still a lot of people who don't pay but people are not seeing infrastructure springing up that it is why they are reluctant to pay . I totally understand that.

OnokpiteKerry:
There are more Christians in the country. How are we supposed to fear Sango wey we never see

It doesn't have to be Sango exactly. Any thing that will kill you if you steal. If you ask around you will find. They are still there. We are not giving the priest any office but just to do his thing and leave. If you ask the politicians, they know.

Even in this latest NDDC bruhaha, the lady accused, accused, accused Sen Akpabio of telling her to take an oath. They do this among themselves to ensure their subordinate keep quiet when they are doing their shady deals.

When they want people to remain loyal to them they bring Sango but be loyal to Nigeria they will ask for the Quran or the bible.

They are playing with Nigeria

This way, they will be serious.

Governance has nothing to do with religion. We should use what will work for us.

Which way forward naija

We need reliable leaders to put things right

This reminds me of Okija shrine.

If sango ways are not brought back...na like this we go dey dey ooo

Do we even have people that are thinking and planning well for this country?

My own is,why is that even a upright person living a honest lifestyle before taking up a public office cannot stand the temptation of having his own part of national cake?
Na so the stealing take dey for eyes?

But truly,we all need to stand up and fix the mess,fix our mess
