All these ethnic groups
are fighting for freedom, political positions, and total domination.
3.
[POLITICS]
Politics has sold the country in the hands of cultism, carnivalism, and inhumane… Many people plays it rough thinking it’s just a gamble club without realizing that their mindsets is the reason why the giant ship carrying us all is sinking inside the ocean.
A Hausa man will go and tell Hausa people to vote him, so that the hausas will enjoy the country more than the rest.
An Igbo man will go and tell Igbo people to vote him, so that the Igbos will enjoy the country more than the rest.
A Yoruba man will go and tell the Yoruba people to vote him, so that the Yorubas will enjoy the country more than the rest. Etc.
The Hausas will insult the Yorubas.
The Yorubas will insult the Igbos.
The Igbos will insult the Hausas. Etc.
All in the name of fighting for freedom, political positions, and total domination!
4
[EDUCATION]
Education is the supporting pillar of every people, economy and nation, but in Nigeria education has became a field of business, and a monster unto the weak.
High school fees.
Untrained Teachers.
Theory Learning.
Bad Study Environment.
Complex Study Courses / Subjects.
Lack of Modernized Materials & Equipments. Etc.
Huge amount of money is always set aside for the educational sector, but so sad only the able can go far in school, and the ones that manage to go far will be discouraged and spoiled through many external factors caused by Institutions, lecturers, and managements.
5
[CONSTITUTION]
The constitution has given much power on certain people who happens to be top criminals hiding in politics and fortunate enough to be elected into office as of the abuse of immunity on section 308 of the 1999 Constitution as it relates to Presidents, Vice Presidents,Governors and Deputy Governors. Such laws shouldn’t exist in the first place, and equal treatment should be given to all citizens without considering their political or social strata… All should be punished or rewarded equally by the law!
6
NORMS & BELIEFS.
Nigeria is a country that have a wonderful and great human resources, but the human resource management is so poor to the extend that the government couldn’t trace where exactly the boat is licking from… All I’m saying is; Nigeria is constructed by a group of people from different mentality, and perceptions. This has been one of the reasons why Confederalization is recommended on running the government administration without much stress.
Power should be given to States to manage their affairs, and certain responsibilities should be given directly to Local Government administrators, if effective governance is truly needed; otherwise, the struggles for power, Fame and domination will never reduce or be eliminated… Only the people of the regions who lives in the regions knows what such regions need at a certain time since human needs changes with little time intervals.
7
IGNORANCE
This is the greatest challenge Nigeria is suffering from, and no one is admitting it.
Ignorance has contributed 90% to the confusion going on in the country, and I pray we all understand this in time and make amendments. Examples;
1. A brother begs his father to borrow money from the neighborhood for their daily living, after the father borrowed the money from the neighborhood whom he knows hated them, the brother stole same borrowed money from the family savings box and went to the neighborhood and hide it inside their savings box thinking one day he will get back the money with a profit added on it… The neighborhood spent the money and couldn’t return it to him yet asking his father to still pay them the money they lend to him.
The truth is, both the brother, his siblings, his parents will starve to death, and the siblings might lose their home training and start stealing from the brother’s little daily earnings and even steal from their parent’s and neighborhood as well… At the end the disaster will still affect everyone near and far! Not understanding this formula has led this country to the state of insecurity and fear!
Having too much to spend is not a crime, stealing from Public funds to invest in your country, or build new businesses and employ your citizens isn’t a crime, but the crime is when you steal from Nigeria and taken the money to another country to buy houses, cars etc or invest there; that’s the CRIME! And that crime you commit or still committing will one day make other countries vomit Nigerians, and the home here won’t be good for both you and everyone due to the large amount of rot and stings that will occur. Let’s admit that we’re ignorantly building a blood pool for ourselves, and let’s join hands and stop digging that hole and start closing it instead.
8.
STEREOTYPES
Another leading problem of Nigeria is stereotypes (Generalization & Group Discrimination).
Examples of stereotypes.
1. Some people say all Northerners are bad people, or all Northerners are Muslims, or all Muslims are terrorists.
2. Some people say all Southerners are evil, or all Southerners are Christians, or all Christians are evil.
3. Some people say so so & so tribe are evil, or people from so so state are bad, etc.
4. Some people say all women are weak, or all men are wicked.
5. Some says all Bandits are fulanis, or all kidnappers are Yorubas, or all terrorists are Hausas, or all ritualists are Igbos.
This mentality has done much damages and still doing, so Nigerians have to admit that people who generalized are wrong! This attitude of stereotypes is really bad!!!
NIGERIA IS OUR COUNTRY (ALL OF US)! IF YOU PLAN EVIL SO THAT ONE CITIZEN WILL SUFFER OR DIE; SURELY YOU WILL FEEL SAME, BECAUSE ALL OF US ARE INSIDE THE SAME BOTTLE! THE SAFETY OF OUR FELLOW CITIZENS IS YOUR SAFETY AS WELL, AND THEIR INSECURITY IS YOUR INSECURITY AS WELL. LET’S STOP BEING IGNORANT, RELIGION EXTREMISTS, STEREOTYPES ABUSE, POLITICALLY VIOLENT, ETHNIC DIFFERENT, etc…
