Nigeria is a conglomerate of nations brought together by the British colonial government for administrative convenience and is held together by the armed forces and a greedy political class, not least foreign interests, for the purpose of sharing oil wealth. Nigeria is a country of peoples with diverse ethnicity, religions and irreconcilable worldviews. It is like bringing Israel, Syria, Lebanon and Egypt together to form one country and then handing over the military to one group to ensure that the country remains irrespective of what the constituent groups might feel. If for instance, the oil wealth that sustains such a country is in the Lebanese area, the military power would be handed to the Egyptians or the Israelis. This is what Nigeria is. Now, what this has done is that Nigerians see themselves as Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani, Ijaw, Tiv, Kanuri, Jukun and so on. Just as you would imagine to be the case in a country that has Jews, Syrians, Lebanese and so on as citizens. Beyond this there is also the very strong religious factor. As you probably know, Nigeria has a roughly even Christian and Muslim population, with the former being predominant in the South and the latter in the North. You can already see that from the religious perspective, Nigeria is an impossible experiment. This may not be politically correct, but the truth is that both religions cannot exist side by side peacefully. Again people see themselves first as either Christians or Muslims. Being Nigerian is third in the pecking order, after religion and ethnicity. The effect of these is that leaders often emerge, not on the strength of their capabilities, but as religious and ethnic champions. Thus, as opposed to having charismatic leadership, we have ethnic and religious warriors who often don't see the need to be accountable because what brought them into power in the first place is not their capacity but religious and ethnic sentiments. Therefore, even when they mess up the entire space, Nigerians cannot protest against them because like I said, there are really no Nigerians. If the leader is a Fulani Muslim from the North as we have now with Muhammadu Buhari, no matter how terrible he performs, the Fulani and the Hausa - who often exist side by side -will still side with him and any attempt by the Igbo for instance, to protest against him, will be seen as a fight against the Fulani which they will resist. So, for Buhari to ensure that there can never be a question of uprising against him, he turns into an ethnic champion by promoting the interest of his ethnic group and his religion above the others. This scenario exists, too, in various states where there is a multiplicity of ethnic groups. Of particular interest in this case is Plateau State where the Israeli veteran lived. Plateau used to be a very peaceful state with clement weather. The choice destination for many Europeans in Nigeria because its weather is close to that of Europe. This was when the state was inhabited mainly by the indigenous Christian population. Now, with the entrant of Muslims and the resultant friction between the two religions, Plateau has become a state largely in ruins on account of religious and ethnic crises. In a sense, Plateau is a mini Nigeria. Another important dimension is that Nigeria is not a productive country - does not have a productive economy but a consuming one. It is basically held together by oil proceeds from one region, the Niger Delta region of Southern Nigeria. To this extent, competence is hardly a factor in leadership selection because leaders are often elected to sit on oil wealth and distribute same. Therefore, each group sees their own person being in power as an opportunity to get access to this oil wealth. That is why, for example, you heard people like the current vice president, Yemi Osinbajo, arguing that the reason his Yoruba people should vote for Buhari during the 2019 election held months ago, is that Buhari will hand over power to the Yoruba in 2023. Osinbajo is a professor of law and a pastor of one of the largest Pentecostal churches in Nigeria, the Redeemed Christian Church of God, yet he makes an argument like that. This should tell you how deep-seated this problem is. Now, if the Yoruba were to go with this line of thought - even though my personal opinion is that it is just empty hope - they would have voted for Buhari in 2019, not on the strength of what he has done or intends to do, but in the expectation that they will get power and therefore access to oil wealth after him. This should explain why leaders get away with everything. Also deriving from this is the fact that the political class themselves see political offices essentially as avenues for personal, family and group aggrandisement, not vehicles for service delivery. This is why, for example, Buhari would argue that he would distribute political appointments on the basis of the votes he got. The states that gave him more votes, he said, would get more appointments. Again the interest is not nation building because there is no nation to build. Thus, Nigeria is structured in such a way that political office holders get huge sums of money as salaries and allowances. The fastest way to wealth therefore, is joining politics, not starting a company, which of course, you are going to have to face bottlenecks and pay bribes to start. This mindset has become pervasive. The police man sees his job primarily as an opportunity to exploit the weak. He mounts roadblocks ostensibly to check crime, but in reality, he is there extorting commuters. The civil servant doesn't see his post as a platform for service delivery, but an opportunity to exploit those seeking government service. The man at the corporate affairs commission does not see his job in terms of facilitating start-ups, but putting roadblocks to collect bribes from prospective entrepreneurs. As you would probably expect in such a clime, elections are a sham and votes hardly count. This is another critical point. Until the people are able to vote out leaders who don't perform, there won't be accountability. To summarise, Nigeria is simply a country forced together by the military and the political class for the purpose of distributing oil wealth. It is more like a criminal Enterprise. |
igbos need to be careful and thread with caution.these waves of protests rocking the nation shouldn't be considered as a Dawn of a new day in Nigeria.the fulanis/northners/yoruba Muslims and Hypocritical middlebelt including Edo people have crippled nigeria.what Nigeria need is a break up. cats and dogs can't leave together as one,rather they need to leave separately.nothing good can come out of a decayed nation hijacked by fanatical Muslims called nigeria.The fulanis at the helm of affairs and corridors of power would never stop police brutality nor will they listen to voice of reasoning.what Nigeria needs is breakup and that's the only solution.at the tower of Babel when every one spoke different languages, every body went with his tribe men to form his nation.so this contraception called Nigeria must collapse. ibos,be on the alert and always be guarded!!! |
The Nigerian police force are not yet ready for reformation.Quota system and man know man recruitment pattern,coupled with gross corruption has crippled the NPF and had turned it into a laughing stoke globally. How can you say you want to reform the police when bail isn't free the government think they are talking to fools.The police is still one of the most underfunded agency in nigeria.most of the police stations are tasked with providing fuel and basic logistics for themselves.even it was reported on the media on how the IG tasked all Mopol commanders to raise money so that he can build a police college in Adamawa.Do you think policemen will use their salaries to finance all these expenses? no!!!it's the money remitted from bail and illegal extortion is what they use.so don't be deceived when the police talk about reformation,they are saying indirectly that they can't do without extortion.Hypocrisy coupled with selfisness currently been exhibited by Nigerian leaders, had turned Nigeria into a failure capital of the world and the police of Nigeria aren't exempted.I laugh at all those who think the police would be reformed after this endsars protests ![]() |
[quote author= post=94070282]First and foremost, God bless our darling Daddy President Muhammadu Buhari and his amiable Vice president Prof Yemi Osibanjo for all they are doing to make this once battered and looted country work again. Secondly, Nobody can deny that there are very serious challenges in the country, particularly in the areas of security, the economy, and standard of living generally. But that is not all there is to Nigeria of today, and those challenges are being addressed very robustly. That hymn says “behind a frowning providence, He hides a smiling face. His purposes will ripen fast, unfolding every hour.” We will surely see an end to the challenges, if we all work together, and eschew hate speeches. Thirdly, Again, God bless PMB and STARBOY for all they are doing and still yet to do for our darling nation. Slow and steady we will get to a land flowing with milk and honey. We will continue to believe in Nigeria. There is no other country we can call our own. Only animals believe that they live in a zoo. (You can quote this post if you are one of those!) That is why they behave like swines everywhere online, cursing their lineages! We will get there. God bless Nigeria [/quote]why are all the children and upcoming generations from your region all over the SS SE begging for food and money.or is there no food for your children to eat hence you send them down south to beg and constitute nuisance at every junction accross the blessed and hardworking SS SE states.is the situation from your region so hopeless that nearly 95% of your youths are in the SS/SE carrying shovels upandan everymorning in groups of ten to twenty waiting for an Igbo man that might have pity on them,so that they might help him clear his portion of land it's just a honest question don't be offended ![]() |

[quote author= post=94052829]This is the same logo that the thieving and looting party (PDP) would have budgeted and spent about 500 million on in their years of wastages, looting and stealing. The years stealing wasn't corruption. A party that even looted BILLIONS meant to build their National Headquarters. A ruling party that couldn't build their Headquarters for 16 long years, want to build a whole nation?! ![]() And some swines are angry that sane, honest and hardworking Nigerians voted such party of criminals out after 16 years of looting and stealing?! (Quote this post if you are one of them!) May it never be well with any politician that has stolen from our national treasury, no matter the party they are, and also to the supporters that support such politicians. Happy Birthday in advance to our darling country. Slow and steady we will get to a land flowing with milk and honey. We will continue to believe in her, that one day things will get better. God bless Nigeria. We should stop being on one side? Even after you read the part of our comment that says "no matter the party they are? Well, we will believe you intentionally or unintentionally missed that out. We have said this many times that we are not a card carrying member of any party. Loving the PRESIDENT and his Vice do not say we are supporters of all politicians in APC, cos some of them are political prostitutes. Have you ever seen any of our posts on Nairaland loving or admonishing any politician apart from our darling Daddy and STARBOY! We love individuals and not party. We have said it couple of times that all of us @[b][/b] did not even voted for Sanwo-olu of Lagos during the governorship election, but for another capable person from another party! (Apologies to Sanwo-olu!) We won't reply you as we reply other wailers, cos this is the first time we are seeing your mention and moreso because you are a lady. We are sure you are not a wailer. We will let it slide. Kindly read well next time before you quote us again please. We respect women a lot. Have a great weekend ahead. Cheers!
