TravelRe: Is Life Really Better Abroad? by yemmydavid(m): 9:04pm On Nov 22, 2006
I STILL BELIEVE WE SHOULD GIVE NIGERIA TIME TO GROW COS THE BASIS FOR COMPARING THE TO ENDS ARE MUCH it might look long and like a History lecture but its worth d read

lets look at it like this

i was able to get the following points to back my view

quoting the UNDP report
"UNDP report likened Nig. to the 19th century Britain cos about 200yrs ago,in Britain children Died of water borne diseases like Diarrhea and Dysentry.
Both 18th & 19th century \britain where xterised by extensive corruption and social ills which had impacted negatively on governance and thus tended to make poverty a norm for obvious reasons.The period of British history that compares very well to d situation in Nig today is (AD 1100 - 1400)"


As Wole Soyinka $ Chinua Achebe are obliged to stick their neck out in nig today so were william Langland (1332 - 1400) and geoffrey Chaucer(1340 - 1400) compelled to do in the 14th century England. crying out against official hanky panky in its ramification (C.WARREN HOLLISTER "THE MAKING OF ENGLAND 55BC - 1399"wink

Hollister also tells us that in the medieval England, like in Nig 2dy,local magnate could overawe d court wit its private army $ secure the election to its own henchmen,

Nigeria @ 46 years can only be compared to the England/US of 14th,15th,16th,17th century. Nigeria just happens to be far ahead of where it should be (17th century England) which we all cant compare to d 21st century England (they paid a price to get to where they are).

From my own view,we jumped the gun by adopting a 21st century life style (which we are finding very hard to cope with) when as a matter of fact we should be in the 17th century e.g China is a country that tried taking a step backwards and have achieved many steps 4ward in one fel swoop,


lets look at it in this light and we will all see that we cant just compare both.nigeria is struggle to remain where it is and also aspiring to go further.
if not for the sacrifice that was made by somepple years back,thoseof us in the US/UK wont have wat we are enjoyin today.

I REST MY CASE

Well said. all man don talk him own,
lets look at it this way all these countries wey we dey run go,hw them be wen them be like 46yrs (nigeria's age).
i knw most of them are above a hundred years since independence.
i knw we are all xpecting so much from NIGERIA (THE SLEEPING GIANT) but men giv d country a break.
we all have our part to play in the development of this country for it to get to the level we all wish it to be.
Life in Nigeria is hard it depends on the side of the coin u are but its the same evry where,
pls spare this country o
