Nigeria's Democracy Graded By People All Cross The World. by ElRazur: 11:30am On May 24, 2009 |
Here is a paragraph explaining what this is all about.
I would like to hear from people here as well. In the mean time, here are a few of responses posted by people:
Again there appear to be people saying the same thing. Why is it then, a few of us get mad when the obvious is pointed out? Anyway what are your views, and how would you grade Nigerian democracy? Personally, I how I feel is already made known several times. I wonder if there is ever a way out of this vicious cycle? For how long can we endure this for as a nation? You know, the same old story of corruption, rich getting richer and the poor remaining poorer. There isn't accountability and the whole scenario just seem bleak to be honest. **Sigh** Full transcript available here: http://newsforums.bbc.co.uk/nol/thread.jspa?forumID=6490&edition=1&ttl=20090524111921 |

Elz Is this an understatement on your part - when u say graded by people all cross the world - do u mean Non Nigerians- cause according to your posting the grades were from Nigerians abroad. |

The posting could be done by Non-Nigerians and Nigerians alike on the BBC website as provided by the poster. Perhaps, a lot of Non-Nigerians and people who do not have any stake in Nigeria have little or no motivation to post hence, most of the comments made are by Nigerians. |

blacksta: Not at all. The site is open for all to access and post their views. The selection I made are a few that caught my eye. The topic is still up for debate [at the time am making this post], so technically anyone from anywhere interested in African politics or so can make a comment. |

The people who posted are Nigerians all around the world, and they can't spell and have no basic grasp of grammar. |

strangleyo: Yeah you know this because you know it all. And one more thing, keep attacking the messenger and not the issue at hand. Nice. |

ElRazur: We know the issue at hand. The issue at hand is a product of ourselves. We are our biggest enemy. We are not people who are ready for a culture of meritocracy, hence, how can we have a democracy? I am still amazed at how business is done in Nigeria. People are lazy, people expect handouts, and hence, when these same people rise to the top they don't change. Nigeria needs a cultural change. Politics is one part of it but hardly the whole picture. |
