RE: Causality In The Nigerian Economic/Financial & Political System (Part One)
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
I wrote a WhatsApp post about leadership as an individual trait and how those who lead a terrible life are more willing to allow terrible leaders to lead them. I think Nigeria is suffering from this. We also do not think we deserve better.
With the elections coming, people are still having tribal sentiments lead their thought. How can we know what competence looks like when we can not see it in the mirror nor do we see it as an important trait to develop? The results of this election will be a wild realisation for Nigerian if they are not ready to sit up. Regardless of who wins, life will get harder and that is what people do not realise.
If Nigerians begin to be paid by the hour who will be the one willing to take incompetence after there have been tax cuts? it will be wild.
I think most importantly, Nigerian leaders are profiting from an uneducated, tribalistic and sentimental populace, most of the people championing for Tinubu are those who have been promised a lot of money, some of them are just tribalistic and religiously attached, while some are ignorant to the core. Some people thinks governance is about tribe. This is why I do not pity some people who suffer the effect of bad leadership. No sane person will vote APC because of the current represent of theirs in power (Buhari). But Nigerians are easily manipulated. We'll keep choosing thieves.

The solution still lies in education. We need to have light guide us in this country. Not the fake leaders we have right now.
