Assuming it is possible, the most astute strategist cannot control or predict the outcome.

Study the French Revolution

Look at Libya

Revolution may result in replacing a bad, corrupt, incompetent government with a geometrically worse one.

Sad

Are you yet too be convinced that these guys have redefined 'cluelessness' and don't intend to be respsnisble in any way?

We need to redefine our actions on Social Media, Join A Political Party and Raise Competent Candidates for 2019 and get these misfits out.

The problems can't be solved overnight but they can be solved nonetheless .
A chief criteria of Politics is foresight and patience, we tend to forget the little seeds and look for big revolutions then get frustrated cos it seems this 'revolution' won't come.

Political revolutions begin with as little as a mosquito bite and swirl into a whirlwind.

2 Years from now most people will wish they had started today.

When do you think Tinubu started plotting the demise of the PDP with his grand mega party plan, do you realise he was scoffed at?

You reading this, do you not think you're more intelligent than some of these leaders? so how come you're reading this and not vying for political office?

Get UP!

WAKE UP!!!

...or you think you can't be governor, senator or president? then don't complain when misfits lord it over you

Jabioro:
What are you trying to say.. please define your topic clearly.
Okay, here goes...

Let's say we have half the population of Lagos trying to get somewhere each morning (espescially during the work week).

It means they have a limited time to get there (by/before work starts or the bank opens or both including dropping off kids at school.

So you've got half the population of Lagos trying to get to all sorts of places within a set time frame (or window).

Would it not be better to open up or increase the time window and put less pressure on the roads and enjoy less traffic and better quality of life?

Whether you like it or not, the truth is the truth
You need low CORRUPTION to build good INSTITUTIONS.
Your country will get poor and die off if you don't have strong institutions.
Agreed, is it not also an indictment on ALL past leaders? or are you cherry picking?

profhezekiah:
Nigeria is never poor,but for corruption,greed,sabotage,tribalism,sentiment,hatred,bitterness etc.
If a young talented Mr. A who in addition to his abundant talent is gifted wealth and riches by his forbears is robbed and then incarcerated and impoverished would you categorise him as rich?

All the negative traits you mentioned have culminated in massive impoverishment of the majority, right now, Nigeria is poor

wirinet:
Forget strong institutions, institutions are manned by people and not machines, aliens or angels, an institution is as strong as the people running it.

What we need is a cultural, moral and value revolution that allows a Nigerian to aspire for more than basic materialistic sensations.
You seem to miss the whole point of what strong institutions are built on.

To cut the long story short strong institutions are less prone to abuse by the people you mentioned above. The idea is to prevent them from messing things up.

How do you achieve a cultural, moral and value revolution without building strong institutions?

There really is no Quick-fix

(1.)
Things could get much worse (do not underestimate ineptitude, cluelessness and incompetence)

(2.)
There are people who are making 'crazy' money whether Nigeria progresses or not (sometimes they make more money when Nigeria is retrogressing).

(3.)
There are people who knew PMB/APC would fail and were prepared to 'ride it out' (they have sufficient money and 'access')

(4.)
Even if Nigeria is at war (Heaven forbid) there are those who will make 'crazy' money from Nigeria.

(5.)
These people who 'own' Nigeria do not sleep, they are scheming constantly, they have plans for 2019, they have plans if there is a breakup before 2019, they have plans to continue raping Nigeria for a very looooong time.

(6.)
You are not a beneficiary of their plans.

(7.)
Lets say you live for thirty more years in Nigeria, at this rate where do you think you or Nigeria will be?


It is in your interest (and that of your loved ones and offspring) to do something legitimate to change the status quo.

How can LASG declare zero tolerance on Pot Holes in roads that were constructed under 18 months ago?

Do they want to keep on constructing or repairing pot holes?

Factfinder1:
I remember being labelled with all sorts of names in the social media and the only crime I committed was taking a political appointment to work in the Nigerian Govt. Every ministry where I served as a ministerial aide, much of the attacks I faced came from young people. Ministries that were forgotten suddenly became trending topics on Twitter because Ohimai went there. They completely forgot I was a young person like them and needed their support to succeed. As far as some were concerned, I had joined their oppressors on the other side. Today, many of such critics back then have now lost their voices. Everything is now fine with the Defence, Foreign Affairs, Youth and Sports ministries… Ohimai is no longer there!http://ogashub.com.ng/why-nobody-takes-nigerian-youths-seriously-by-ohimai-amaize/
Mr. Man you literally single handedly GLAMOURISED the role of youths in government abi you don forget your wedding for bellanaija? Pictures and all, cake and all, hat message did you think you were passing then?

Like you have pointed out, not every youth can join politics, this may be because there isn't space for everyone at the top hence competition - I wan hammer like Ohimai, hence one source of the 'competition' you speak so glibly about.

Politics › Re: FLASHBACK: BUHARI And The 53 Suitcases ($50M Dejavu?) by three(op): 9:17pm On Apr 15, 2017
Nafata Bamaguje had this to say


"The infamous 53 suitcase saga during Buhari's 20 month military misrule also raises questions about his commitment to the eradication of corruption. A northern Emir was accosted by Custom agents at Lagos international airport with 53 suitcases of currency in direct violation of the prevailing laws. Buhari redeployed the principled customs officer – our current embattled vice president – who apprehended the Emir, while allowing the sacred cow Emir to go scot free. Ironically in several circles today, that principled customs officer - vice president Atiku Abubakar - is portrayed as corrupt while Buhari is hailed as incorruptible.

Contrast Buhari's kid's glove, pat-on-the-back for the 53-suitcase Emir, with Fela's unjust imprisonment ostensibly for failing to declare his own hard earned foreign currency. The truth of the matter is that the vindictive Buhari never forgave the late Afrobeat maestro for his popular hit tune Army Arrangement, in which Fela sang about the 2.8 billion Naira that reportedly disappeared from our nation's oil accounts while Buhari was petroleum minister. In the song, Fela captured the public cynicism of government denial of the scandal…not surprising, given the poor credibility of most Nigerian governments… Dem set up enquiry, Dem say money no lose O !

To any discerning mind, Buhari's discriminatory enforcement of the law enforcement a.k.a. "selective justice" vis-à-vis Shagari / Ekwueme detention, and Fela / 54 case Emir currency violations clearly indicate that the general is no different from Nigeria's present tormentor, Obasanjo who is using EFCC to witch-hunt and persecute his political adversaries."

Politics › FLASHBACK: BUHARI And The 53 Suitcases ($50M Dejavu?) by three(op): 9:16pm On Apr 15, 2017
Remember this?

let me start with a reference to El-Rufai's interview with SaharaReporters (they seem to have been chummy up on till last week wink )

El-Rufai goes after GMB

"Mallam El-Rufai wishes to remind General Buhari that he has remained perpetually unelectable because his record as military head of state, and afterwards, is a warning that many Nigerians have wisely heeded. His insensitivity to Nigeria’s diversity and his parochial focus are already well-known. In 1984, Buhari allowed 53 suitcases belonging to his ADC’s father to enter Nigeria unchecked at a time the country was exchanging old currency for new. Against all canons of legal decency, he used retroactive laws to execute three young men for drug-peddling after they were convicted by a military tribunal and not regular courts of law. Buhari was so high handed that he gave himself and his officials immunity even from truthful reporting. That obnoxious Decree 4, against which truth was no defence, was used to jail journalists and attempt to cow the media as a whole. That tyrannical legislation shows the essence of his intolerance. These are facts of recent history."
