@Q1

Well for me I know we used to have factories but I really can't point a time when we were that 'Great nation.'

We probably were at our peak before the civil war.

All I remember is that we were farmers and hunters in a certain location, before some bunch of foreigners came and did some crazy things and now we are here.

And immediately after the war, mediocrity took over. Mediocrity is still ruling till today. Many people who doesn't want to end up as mediocre are asking to from their own country while those who lacks the ability to rise above mediocrity are insisting that everyone must remain mediocres till forever.

You need alot for tutoring about government and the people. It's a pity we have been mentally abused by these so called politicians who have nothing upstairs than to embezzle the treasury.

You must have done social studies in your primary school days or govt in your secondary school days. I believe you were taught functions of the people to the government and also, government to the people.

One of the functions of people to the government is to pay tax, obey rules and regualations etc. Tax payment is the most important function of a citizen to the government. It is believed that, the money generated would be used by the government judiciously to provide the 3basic amenities which Op is pointing out. Also, one of the functions of the government to the people is to provide infrastructure,security, etc

Op, is not saddled with the any philanthropic or bonaza stuffs because he must have paid his tax and what he's doing is calling on the government to use the tax he paid to renovate the health center is his village. Is that too bad or too much to ask? Asking for your right shouldn't be tantamount to stupidity. We all can witness what is happening in the US. Citizens are asking for their right. Have you seen the government arresting protesters.? NO, because they know, it is their right.

Philanthropy is good. You do it at your own peril because you have the resources. I can't be paying tax from my small salary and also contribute to renovate an health center. It is not my not Op's job. It is government's job to fix. He called them out incase they have forgotten.

Don't be a medicore. Let's put our leaders into action. Let them do the needful. Except you are part of those milking the resources of this nation

Keep waiting for the failed government, by the time the last few people from your village kpeme due to avoidable illness, you will learn to solve your problem by yourself in Nigeria.

Ugwuanyi is the best governor in Nigeria.

The man has really tried.

Lokoja is a former capital, same as calabar, and since you rightly said it is old capital, now istime for una to move to new capital and get off our land

ndi land grabber

We are all moving down to Lagos to settle

See that Dangote truck, let's go get a space to stand on it with 200 others , it will take us to Lagos.

techmo:
Lagos is our land.. yoruba land... tell your ibo people to stop packing them self tight inside ifesinachi busses to come and disturb us in yoruba land... if you stay at home to develop then break up would be faster

Lagos is our old federal capital, that's why every Musa and Adamu are climbing every Dangote open truck to run to Lagos with their families. Lagos can contain the whole Nigeria.

Thank you my dear. I'm only doing this as a concern citizen and this is what I get. Childish slap44, won't allow me put up the post in a proper way. I will be reporting him or her to the moderators
