Nigeria been a country with almost 150 million people according to the last censors, is a very complicated nation to rule.
Nigeria is the same time the giants of the African continents, one of the largest oil producing nations in the world, it really deserves some respect and good reputation both locally and internationally.
And who ever is charged with the mandate of ruling Nigeria, is really going to face a real challenge. He might as well wobble both in darkness and light; that person will continue to have sleepless nights and days and it might eventually extend to the growth of grey hairs. Don't be too fascinated, i was just discribing the past leaders who sacrificed thier lives and blood to the betterment of Nigeria not this present set of unscrupulous and self cenctred leaders.
Leadership as know involves making alot of sacrifices and compromise all geared towards ensuring that everyone is been carried along in the same pace. Some might start up their political carres superbly, but along the way, due to some factors best known to them, they tend to go against their main primary aim and objective of occuying a particular office or a political post.
Most often, sacrifices needs to be done in order to pave way for enjoyment. The recent Arab spring that took place sometime last year is very pertinent to mention. Although the Arabians have been deluded by the West thinking that the best possible ways to live a life worth living, but they demonstrated both the peaceful and non violence protest and sacrifices that culminated into so many massacre by rebels and the opposition parties. Many lives were lost and some displaced to nieghbouring states as refugess. Yet, the war was over, many people make sacrifices that will benefit their offsprings and it really paid them good as they're now having close to what they hoped for from the beginning.
United States assumed as the world super powers, the back bone of the United Nation and a country in sole position to make it into the top three best economy in the world also made sacrificed long time ago. America obtains it independence from British, the same country that colonised Nigeria in the 20th century. There reached a time where the American got tired with the British and subsequently waged war against them under the leadership of Gorge Washington. The war lasted for a long time, and it gets to atime where a compromise was reached to grant America their political independence.
Both in the past and present, many people have persistently contrue the problems of Nigeria to be just corruption. The mishap is worth morethan that. The worst and greatest problem of Nigeria alongside its citizenries is the problem of indicipline. Indiscpline arrises as a result of laying down law and order in order due to selfishness. The poor usually complains of poor leadership and corruption as the bane of modern development and yet they are not helping matters too. To me, if everyone will be self discipline, then the issue of corruption, violence, crimes not to mention but few shall be reduced to its minimal level. In a situation where there is an absolute tranquility and compliance of law and order in the society, the issue of corruption and crimes will be but a story.
As for the poor, they should stop collecting bribes. That will make the rich and the influential people's hope of violation of human right and embezzlement of funds unachievable. Try to make that sacrifice and make Nigeria a better society to live. We have to make that sacrifice and save our generations. There will be a time where the rich will have the resources to loot elections, manipulate people, etc but they wont have the poor and the parties concerned to their compliance.
