What more do you want from the Nigerian people you Nigeria politicians? Even the Arabs were not having it this bad before it led to an Arab spring

Nigerians provide security, construct and repair roads an gutters, provide water etc.

What more should the Nigerian people do?

You are mixing things up here bro, I'm not a politician and I don't pray to be one especially in Nigeria, no thanks to the way it is being played here in Nigeria.
I'm just a concerned citizen like you, that was why I asked that question.

It seems you are mixing things up here bro, I'm not a politician and u don't even pray to be one considering the way it is being played here in Nigeria.
I'm a concerned Nigerian just like you, the question is what you should provide answer to.

One of the reasons why we are where we are in Nigeria is the #blaming_game that our politicians have resorted to. When a new government comes into power, the first 6 months would be used to receive congratulatory messages, the second 6 months would be used to select/appoint their cabinets.
The second year would be used to do a few out of the numerous projects expected of them and the populace would start clapping them as if they've used their great grandpa's resources for those projects, the opposition party would start compare and contrast. Even when they fart, they would still compare it to how the last administration could not fart as much as them.
Even when they fart, they would still compare it to how the last administration could not fart as much as them.
The opposition too will remind the incumbent of how they were good at defecating all over the street(the feat that no administration has ever matched).
The third year would come and it would be business as usual, campaigning for another term, blaming game continues, little project would be carried out to prepare the mind of the people towards their re-election.
Come the election period, they would contest again and win against the wish of the populace, no thanks to faulty, wrong and deceptive electoral system and also with the help of some gullible Nigerians.
This has been going on and on for years, despite the crying, yearning and struggling of the entire populace for a better governance.
#Hmmm... This is my submission: The world suffers a lot not only because of the violence of the bad people but also because of the silence of the good people, how then do we make the world a better place to live when the bad people do not allow the voice of the good ones to be heard even when they summoned courage to speak??

Ganduje said while also commending the people of Kano for gradually believing the truth of the disease...

The above is the cause of their problem.

Hmmm..... When the leaders seem clueless,what will the led do?

*Cluelessness is locking down the country without proper and enough test being conducted during the lockdown period in order to get more people that have been infected.

*Cluelessness is not knowing that when you lockdown, you are suppose to give the people reasonable palliative in order to cushion the lockdown effect on them.

*Cluelessness is not looking for means to get our health facilities more equipped within the lockdown period.

*Cluelessness is when the clueless leader is planning to ease the lockdown when we've not even flattened the curve.

*Cluelessness is planning to ease the lockdown at a time that I don't even think we've reached the peak.

595 cases in 3 days and the clueless leader is planning to lift the lockdown? This is crazy.
I hope and pray we didn't see the part two of this lockdown in the coming weeks, by then it would be more strict because our clueless leaders refuse to close our boarders and airports when they were supposed to, hence the result we are seeing.
God heal our land.

Iro nparo funro....... Lie dey lie for lie.. #Mtscheewww....

Reduction in oil price across the world has return their brain to factory settings.....
I never knew that there is something that can make them think right.

The people in those other countries usually have paid a lot of tax and are now reaping what they sowed, unlike us who want to reap where we have not sown.

Really?

My heart was heavy when I saw the figure of new cases of Covid_19 in Nigeria yesterday night. And I begin to ask myself that what will it cost Nigeria Government to take care of the citizens by giving them reasonable palliatives like some other countries or very close to what other countries are doing?
Am I the only one thinking that they would spend more money on testing and treating infected people than what they would've spent in giving reasonable palliatives to the citizens if this is not contained on time?
This keeps increasing everyday because most people are flouting the lockdown order believing that there is nothing like Covid_19, and some can't just sit down at home because they believe that #Hungervirus is deadlier than #Coronavirus.
Our leaders refused to rise up and take responsibility when this whole thing started, closing down our boarders and airports when Nigerians were clamouring for it would've done us a lot of good, but just because of their selfish interest and at the detriment of Nigerians, they turned deaf ear to the plea of the people they are governing.
Trump addresses Americans often on how to tackle this deadly virus but here in Nigeria, our president thought he has done what no one has done by addressing us just thrice and in those 3 times, some people has rubbish his speech, calling it #clueless_speech, because he refused to talk about what the people wanted to hear, rather he was elongating the lockdown order (this is one of the way to contain the spread anyway) without a reasonable/meaningful palliatives.
I pray we don't experience 1/10 of what some of the developed countries experienced/are experiencing, because we don't have the necessary equipment to fight it, if you compare the number of test being conducted in Nigeria on daily basis to other African countries, even smaller than Nigeria, you will realise that we are no where near most of those countries.
Now that this is gradually increasing, and our leaders seem not to be doing the right thing, what is the way out?

This is the true definition of "What do women want"

They've done it again, what they know how to do best...... To the supporters of this spoilt government, is the IDP Camp in Benue also Oyo State government or Seyi Makinde?

Imagine this #mumuric_claim from a so called professor. How did he become a professor in the first place?
Bigotry everywhere, most of the leaders of this country no well, majority of the followers self are sick.
How did we get here?
#Mtscheewww.......

This validated people's claim concerning Mr. President's speech. It was a recorded speech, because I finished reading this before Mr. President finished his.
What a country!!!

When I said these people (the leaders) don't care about us, I know what I'm saying. Even as some of them are giving out their so called palliative, do you know what is in their minds?
This is it: Let us give them this token so that they will keep quiet for a while or so that we can fool them to think that we love them......... How did we get here?

Why are Nigerians like this? There is nothing that can be done to satisfy you. He sent the rice back and made it known to the public so as to avoid story like "Seyi Makinde didn't give us Fed Govt. palliative in Oyo State or Seyi Makinde gave us bad rice to eat"
Why didn't you vent your anger on the Fed. Govt. that gave you bad/seized rice from businessmen/women?

And if I may ask, what is the difference between these pictures? Mtscheewww.
For her mind now, she is not naked?

Kenyans and weird news are like 5 & 6...

I was happy reading this not until when I realised you are not the one in power controlling all these agencies/personalities involved here.

The entire building or a part of the building? Hopefully, firefighters from area 10 will quickly put the situation under control.

Those of you insinuating that the fire was deliberate obviously lack knowledge of how far we’ve gone in Nigeria. Gone are the days when people steal money and then burn down the building to destroy records. Financial records can no longer be destroyed by merely burning a building. All transactions are now done through TSA, GIFMIS, REMITA and IPPIS. Federal government transactions are fully saved online and backed up at different locations. Essential records can never be lost to the fire.

Again, those insinuating that Covid-19 donations would be lost to the fire are very ignorant. All donations at federal level are paid directly into a CBN controlled account. All records are with CBN and not OAGF. Nobody can steal Covid-19 donations by burning OAGF building.

As much as this would have made sense, the level of corruption in this country has rendered an average Nigerian unqualified for the position of president regardless of your qualification.

Lolz...

Congratulations bro...

Congratulations to you both.... May God bless your union.

Close to a decade that I've been following nairaland, but the first time to write something on this platform.
