The military performance was so terrible. They were just busy looting.
Yep. There is definitely more accountability now than in the days of military rule. Politicians can be corrupt today, but they still need to show some work on ground, or they'll quickly become irrelevant, and worse, potential EFCC customers.

nice building built for politicians and elite...pls show us pictures from zamfara,sokoto and other places to take you serious

and one person told you that for the fact we don't invest in human development have killed the country but you are asking for his head....do you know most iconic buildings there are built by foreign construction companies and expatriates...bad that we can't build our iconic buildings our own
Assuming you are right, which you're not, who stopped YOU from starting a construction firm?

Honestly, many of our people are just CURSED.

If these were pics from say, Accra or Uganda or Rwanda or Malawi or Burundi or wherever, these same self-haters will transform immediately, and be full of praise and admiration for those nations.

But it is Nigeria, so they are programmed, almost as if by voodoo, to hate any sign of development and criticize it instantly.

Who made them that way? CURSED PEOPLE. Tufia. Worthless wastes of space.

Tell me what is there to criticise in those pictures, please.

You have good roads, good infrastructure, modern rail system, modern airport, modern buildings of high quality, well-maintained public parks and recreational facilities. YET these dunderheads come in here looking to criticize what I don't know. The most you can say is ''hope this is extended to other cities, states etc''. and you will make sense. Any other form of criticism is just pure self-hate, and that's pathetic.

America this America that. Do you know that if you go to America and show them these pictures and tell them it is the Nigerian capital, 99% of them will tell you you are lying?

As far as they are concerned, you all live in mud huts and slums, cos that's all their media shows them about Africa. Meanwhile YOU that know better, you don't value what you have and you spit on your own progress. You're pathetic.

Besides Nothing so boastful here.

What is the essence of fine structure when the populace can't afford a 3 square meal.

Where is it not guaranteed that u will return home when u set our for work...

Don't even compare America at all... Atleast the govt is responsible even to unemployed individuals... What help has Nigeria done to us?

See Dubai, Nigeria mate, can u compare Dubai to Nigeria now...
Ignoramus, Dubai is not ''Nigeria's mate''. UAE of which Dubai is a city in, has 3 times Nigeria's oil reserves, and exports twice the amount of oil Nigeria does per day, and has a population of just 9 million people. So 'Dubai' has more money than they know what to do with, and it is therefore intensely stupid and senseless to expect Nigeria to ''be like Dubai''. You went to school yet you reason like a donkey.


Talking abt safety, I rather stay in America with health insurance, at least their citizens are being cared for than Nigeria where you may meet ur ends either by Sars, armed robbers, area boys and so on...
Dunce, you can meet your end in America by their brutal police, by drive-by shootings, by mass shootings, or just by getting in an argument on the street, in a country where virtually everyone is armed. Don't use your dull brain to research America before typing ignorant slaveboy rubbish.


Any nation without human development, all other development will lie in ruins
Develop your own mentality away from inferiority complex and self-hate, then you might be useful to Nigeria. Right now, you're useless.

U didnt answer d questions I asked about I didn't about recession (even though u got it wrong) and I didn't ask u about diversification. What I asked is this:

"The report was about Africa in general & not about Nigeria specifically. Ur thread was specific. Nigeria is known to have d highest number of poor people in d world. Where's ur "improving living standards" coming from?

In terms of d FDI u say Nigeria is the fourth highest in Africa, has it impacted in d rate of employment & unemployment in d country?"
Just because it's not the answer you want to hear doesn't mean the question hasn't been answered.

For instance, you don't need to 'ask me about recession' for me to tell you that the recession accounts for the rise in unemployment, since that is what happens during all recessions anywhere on earth. But recessions are not permanent, and thus, neither are bouts of unemployment.

Fact is most countries that gained independence in the 1960s are STILL developing countries today, just like Nigeria.

An average American might not like Trump or his policies. But you dare not talk smack about their country. They know that Presidents will come and go but the land will remain for generations to come so they will not stand foe anyone denigrating their land.

For us Nigerians we take delight in joining foreigners to bash and rubbish our country. This silly Nigerian uber guy probably thought Americans are like we Nigerians.

The plunge in oil prices has led to recession in Nigeria, and this has affected all sectors of the economy. Nigeria is STILL a mono-product economy in terms of govt's dependence on oil revenues. However, this is changing, as the non-oil sector accounts for an ever greater share of govt revenues.

Diversification away from oil and gas is Nigeria's top priority at present, and the govt has shown every sign that it recognises that fact, and has hence invested huge sums in the agriculture and agro-processing sectors, as well as in infrastructural development in rail particularly, which is aimed at bringing down the cost of doing business in Nigeria, a move which on completion, will explode the economy in terms of opportunities.

So, we are on the right path in general.

Rossinky Nigeria can look like this in 2040 (not even 2065) because technology is greatly improved. But it may require a good communist system of government/leadership and not democracy. Never!
I actually have some sympathy for this view, believe it or not. I think we will get there quicker if we adopted a China-type, top-down, centralized approach characterised by radical bans on imports and heavily enforced self-sufficiency.

But there will be heavy opposition to such measures, just as they were in China. China resorted to serious repression and curtailment of civil liberties. I doubt such tactics can succeed in Nigeria for long. It will therefore need to be a mix of Chinese style control, and substantive democracy, to get to where we want by 2065.

If GDP and population size are d criteria for foreign investment, what foreign investment have d present GDP& population size of Nigeria attracted and how has that translated to better living standard for Nigerians?
Out of the 54 African countries, Nigeria is the 4th highest recipient of Foreign Direct Investment after South Africa, Egypt, and Morocco:

https://www.brookings.edu/blog/africa-in-focus/2019/10/09/figure-of-the-week-foreign-direct-investment-in-africa/

Living standards are improving generally, and GDP per capita growth is on a steady rise, the current economic recession notwithstanding. See report on Africa - The world's fastest growing middle class, in which Nigeria is featured prominently:

China wasted their first 40 years (after their Civil War) and in just 30 they have become a superpower.
It's been 50 since for Nigeria and this country unlike China was and in many ways remains bitterly fractured, regardless all these things are possible in the lifetime of someone in their 20s.
Growth takes time.
Think of it like this, most billionaires have said that to make their first billion probably took them 2 to 3 decades, but making another billion from 1 billion can take as little as a year, then the next billion in even shorter time.
Good thinking.

Based on what criteria and indices?
Rising GDP accompanies greater development. Today, our annual GDP is 400 billion dollars, and is projected by McKinsey and Co. to reach 1.6 trillion dollars by 2030.

https://www.mckinsey.com/~/media/McKinsey/Featured%20Insights/Middle%20East%20and%20Africa/Nigerias%20renewal%20Delivering%20inclusive%20growth/MGI_Nigerias_renewal_Full_report.pdf

An easy estimate would push that to 5 trillion dollars by 2065.

Secondly, by sheer virtue of population growth, which attracts INVESTORS the way a honeypot attracts bees.

(All those skyscrapers are simply office space for the huge number of local and foreign investors that will flood Nigeria by 2065)

The latest research actually shows that Nigeria will be the world's 2ND most populous nation after India by the end of the century. China will be 3rd.

''The US would reach its projected peak of 364 million people in 2062, then fall to 336 million by 2100. This would make the US the world’s fourth most populous country after India, Nigeria, and China, in that order, followed by Pakistan in fifth place. China’s population is expected to shrink to 732 million by 2100, while Nigeria’s is set to explode, more than tripling from its current 206 million to 791 million by 2100.''

https://singularityhub.com/2020/07/16/this-century-will-see-massive-shifts-in-the-global-population-economy-and-power-structure/


This massive population growth and explosion in local and foreign investment, will lead Nigeria to an annual GDP approaching 4 TRILLION dollars by 2050, rising to over 15 TRILLION dollars by 2100.

Today, our annual GDP is 400 billion USD. We are merely at the start of a great adventure.

As always, it will be a mixture of good hostels to average, to not so good, to terrible. The problem with you negativist crowd is that you ONLY see 'terrible'. Even without visiting those places you just assume they are all terrible. Are you cursed?

Should I assume that YOUR house is dirty and unkempt by virtue of your being Nigerian? Afterall I've been in many such homes across the nation.

I bet your answer is no.
