Hi, and thanks for the comment.
I've made several lengthy comments to Nigerian commenters so I'll refrain from opining on those same issues. I would repeat, however, that corruption is the key.
Laws mean nothing if they're not enforced fairly and uniformly. Africa, a continent for which I have great affinity, has got an endemic corruption problem. It doesn't matter how much oil Nigeria has, corruption will forever paralyze progress until the country finds a way to force accountability upon those in power. I know, easier said than done and, unfortunately, I don't have a prescription on how to get there.
The drum of war never stop beating Blood flows on the street like a flowing river... Everyone wants to be the super power... It is an unending war that does not hold water for the victor. War might be the answer to peace because the peace experienced are in pieces..
I would caution about even uttering such words. War is a terrible thing and the result is usually such utter destruction and estrangement of people that, even after the hostilities cease, it takes generations to rebuild. As a Nigerian, you don't have to look far for examples of countries ripped apart by warfare and the devastation it leaves in its aftermath.
100% of the time, it is better to solve the problems peaceably. Again, I know, easier said than done.
An idea that strikes me as interesting would be the setting up of an Internet News site (perhaps a Steemit account) ... OUTSIDE the country ... who's sole purpose is the exposure of corruption. Name names. Provide details. Provide a place for whistle-blowers to get their information published. WikiLeaks for Nigeria. Always be 100% accurate and never engage in hyperbole or speculation. Check and double-check sources.
Sunshine is the best disinfectant.
You spoke well about the word corruption has eaten deep into nigeria system.
I think the citizen of the country need to first believe in themselves, in hardworking and in surviving.
Thanks
@fadiji09,
By the quantity and quality of comments from Nigerians, I'd say there exists a widespread desire to fix the underlying problems. Let's hope it happens.
