Yeah...all the usual grammar that never worked in the past.

Abegi..

Who are the angels that will set up all these good things you are listing?

We always talk like we have this imaginary class of upright Nigerians who, if only they were allowed to govern, would transform Nigeria into an El dorado.

They would come in, ''strengthen our institutions'', ''care about our country and its people'', ''be patriotic'', do this, do that, and Nigeria will be Paradise overnight.

Those people don't exist.

They are in your imagination.


So all this stuff you're writing is rubbish.

You limit corruption in Nigeria by

1: Ensuring that those who preside over public funds are very well paid, to lessen the urge for graft.

2: Using EFCC to go after corrupt elements.

Simple. Every other thing is just grammar.
Those people don't exist.

They are in your imagination.




If u re unpatriotic say u are, don't generalize! Seeing patriotic people is like finding a needle from a hay stack but they exist not here in Nigeria I suppose because I'm yet to see one but they exist outside in other countries of the world! So with that being possible, there's a 0.000000000001% chance of finding one here in Nigeria

Vote them again in 2023 and expect something worse. Get the right people in the system and things will be alright
Exactly what I have be men saying for years!

Tell Nigerians to vote in the right people, they would say to you either of the following: “Get away; to hell with you and your opinion” or “This person you are recommending does he/she belong to APC or PDP, if not e never ready to contest election”.

This is why I have no sympathy for Nigerians in the never-ending economic hardship and security challenges.

From where, Congo?! Please just observe any sug election in any university of your choice and rid yourself of such mindset.
SUG elections na practice ground for the real deal when they graduate. SUG elections are do or die affairs and riddled with all manner of violence and malpractice.

Nigerians are not ready to move forward. Not anytime soon.

Lol, what about me?

People that are ready to do the right thing exist in Nigeria.

Blame the electorate, that seemingly never chooses good over evil.

I swear, even in secondary school self where favouritism, nepotism and tribalism is used in choosing prefects do we ever expect Nigeria to be better anytime from now, just hustle and flee this place.

Don’t know about patriotic though, cause Nigeria is not really a unified country.

However, I do strongly believe that with love for people, I would do my best to spur development.

There are still people who want to see a better Nigeria, or at least a better state or better local government area.

Africans has continuously shown that they are incapable of placing national interests above personal gains! U knw that! Especially given the fact that there's poverty, the root of the greediness is poverty! If people were actually comfortable and fed well, had houses, had their businesses running nobody would even venture out into politics, but with poverty every dick and harry to do that, leaving both patriots and fraudsters fighting for offices,

No wonder it is the capital of poor people on earth. The politicians are siting on the money that would develop the country and it citizens. Imagine someone in the front page saying there are no patriotic citizens in Nigeria. His mental faculty had been traumatized for life due to the situation of the country...

let no one pastor or imam deceive u, Nigeria is the biblical proof of hell. It government and her politicians are the gate keepers.

On my honor, am doing my posible best to live right so in my next life i wont find myself in this geographical contraption which is the Biblical proof of HELL.
NIGERIA THE HELL ON EARTH

It is YOU that lacks a brain.

If you were elected to office, would YOU reject those perks of office you moan about?

ALL OF YOU HYPOCRITES on this thread, I guarantee you that NOT ONE OF YOU, if elected to office, would reject a SINGLE perk offered to office holders, and you will even seek further enrichment through shady means. I KNOW IT. YOU KNOW IT.

So STFU, all of you.

Those large salaries are meant to discourage grand corruption and massive looting by top officials as occurred in the past.

It is a necessary sacrifice in a money-mad population, to curtail public graft by granting officials enough to be very comfortable without getting tempted to loot or take bribes.

Experience has taught us that putting lowly-paid officials in charge of budgets worth millions or even billions of dollars, is CERTAIN to lead to massive corruption. We are all Nigerians. WE KNOW HOW WE ARE.


So what is YOUR solution, if not to pay them VERY WELL while clamping down on corruption?

It's an African solution to an African problem.

But no. Our resident colonised dunderheads are looking to what happens in America, Germany, France, and UK.

ThIs is NIGERIA. If you want things done how they're done in Germany or France or UK, fcking MOVE THERE.

Lost people.
So is the approach working wise one? I am sure you know what they call a man that does the same thing over and over while expecting a different result.

It’s quite sad the way the country is being run. Senators are earning so much and getting paid without delay, but the govt been owing Doctors (houses officers) three months salary. Why won’t doctors japa to better countries.
