Nigerians are fighting the wrong battle as a country entirely, our major problem is that we do not hold the lower office holder accountable, we only care about the presidential office instead of channeling our challenges to our state Governors first.
Secondly, if we don't vote in the right senators representing our various constituency nothing will change. A visionary and a good Leader will not be able to do much if the senators are corrupt since everything goes through them.
My chief, shey e for make sense if we dey use more of pigin for the local board, abi hw u see am ?.
You are definitely right by identifying were we are actually getting it wrong. A country that don't even know her population. As a young Nigerian, I have always avoid those who are in a higher authority, and choose to point fingers at those who are suppose to be the
grass root according to what we were taught in social studies. Why blame the government for not providing electricity when you have one of the largest
Soft drink producing company in your community?. This is clearly what my community has been experiencing over the years. What has happened to our community representative ?. Basically, industries are supposed to bring development to any community they establish themselves.
Aside that, the high rate of illiteracy is something to talk about. Most people put the blame on one man, forgetting that someone representing them gave them 1000naira in the past. Am sorry to say, but nothing can be done soon. A single human can not put an end to this. It requires a 80% effort of Nigerians.
