RE: Africa is Doomed - Especially Nigeria.

@edumurphy you wrote well,but the caption (AFRICA IS DOOMED ESPECIALLY NIGERIA ) is what i can not agree on.

Brother , we are not doomed just that we are unfutunate to have bad leaders,that dont not have the matters of its citizens at heart.but that does not mean that we are doomed.

remember Rome was not built in a day.

it takes gradual process to achieve that not by force. i like the point you came up with on how to resolve those issues.

sometimes we blame government for everything but we the citizens fail to do our own part in national progress.

Sort:  

Guy, I am 35 years old. I have been hearing that line about Rome wasn't built in a day since I was 9. Rome wasn't built in a day but are you telling me that in 26 years Rome made no forward progress?

No. Listen to Fela's music, listen to his complaints and his humor. Now tell me, what has improved in Nigeria since 1992? Name one thing.

Oh, and as for Rome? They used force. And crucifixions. You might recall.

And they fell.

Everybody falls. At least they got to be a pinnacle of civilization for hundreds of years before falling. Nigeria didn't just fall, it lay down in the deepest pothole it could find and started digging with a 10 ton shovel.
