The Majority of Nigerian populace always want something out of nothing. They want to reap without sowing. The politicians have studied who the populace are really are . So, they keep manipulating the populace year in year out.

Election campaign and politics is very expensive all over the world so good people does not indulge in it here in Nigeria. If they do, they will lose even if they win the election. Nobody wants to be a loser so they retract.

Take for example a good rich man who spent his own multi billion naira on campaigning and politicking will never recover his money back when he gets to power because he won’t steal. while the good rich man who lost an election will be the worst loser. This is why good people don’t participate in Nigeria politics.

Our country is messed up today because the people have not been funding right thinking individuals in politics. The Godfathers knows this very well. So they sponsor their own candidate. They do all it takes and they go extra mile so their candidate will win. They give money to the greedy and selfish populace so they will vote for them to win the election. Some people even ask for money just to attend political rally.

When the candidate gets to power, Their sole aim will be to please themselves, their families and the God fathers that made sacrifices for them and not the people. The mini godfathers also sponsor the candidates so they will get political appointment.. Even when the mini godfathers perform woefully, they keep the job at the detriment of the populace.

When the politicians are campaigning, we don’t ask where they get the money from.

We don’t ask where they get the millions of naira they used in ; buying of form, paying for ads on newspaper , paying for tv jingles. We don’t fund them instead we expect them to pay us before we vote and expect them to work for us after getting to power …. Where do we expect them to create jobs from? Thin air?. Thats against laws of nature because “ You can’t eat your cake and have it”. Life is about “give and take’’. Thats what makes nature thrive. you must nourish your plants for it to flourish.
Until we change ; “fish and snake will continue to swallow our money”,
“Monkey and bamboo will continue steal from us”,
“ mini godfathers will continue to faint on live tv when we ask them about our money’’ while the populace makes jokes about it. Not knowing the joke is on the populace
