kasson: Highest B.S! What democracy when the citizens do not have the rights to freedom of speech? What democary when shittes where murdered in cold blood for their belief? What democracy when court orders are disobeyed and impunity is the order of the day? What democracy when hundreds of citizens are locked up as political prisoners all around the country? What democracy when security forces kill people and no justice is given to the families? What democracy when killer Fulani herdsmen regin supreme in the land maiming citizens unabated and unhindered? What democracy when thousands of IPOB's were shoot at, imprisoned wounded and no one was held accountable? What democracy when looting of public funds has become the order of the day and the culprit's are shielded because they come from a particular region (SGF comes to mind)? What democracy when the national budgets of 2016 & 2017 are shredded in controversy, budget padding is the order of the day. Up till now no budget and the country is running on fraudulent monies being spent without appropriation. What democracy when opposition voice are being silenced and we run a one party system in the country? What democracy when critics of the government are hounded and presented with trumped up charges to keep them from speaking? What democracy when nepotism, tribalism, ethnicity, religious introlence, religious violence, favouritism, marginalization and paddy paddy government is the order of the day. If this is what democracy is all about I rather practices paganism and live in a Bush as my fore father's without any form of governance where barbarism held sway. This is nothing but a true reflection of the animal farm by George oweil where some animals are indeed higher than the others. I spit on this day!! 3 Likes 1 Share |

ipodstinks:That's because you never knew how it was during the military. Though I was pretty young when democracy was restored but I still remember how it was during the military era. You had NO liberty to complain as at then Caveatemptor:It is not democracy that will provide these things, the people elected leaders have the duty. Democracy only allows us to choose who we want and define a system we want. |

TonyeBarcanista: My friend, Do you really believe votes count in Nigeria? Do you really believe that? Obasanjo first four years was an army arrangement, Abdul salami Abubakar,just brought his military pal and installed him as president. Okay we have had eighteen years of democracy and ex military rulers Obasanjo and Buhari have had Ten years out of eighteen years? Buhari that was Military head of state when I was in Secondary school is now civilian President when I am I my middle age and you call that democracy? 1 Like 1 Share |

Caveatemptor:My Dear Sir, the problem is not democracy but we the people. We sell our votes for N1000-N5000 every 4 years, thereby exchanging our basic needs for immediate need. We allow tribe and ethnic sentiment to dictate our political choice. We turn a blind eye when the man we wish to win manipulate the system simply because he is our choice. We keep electing (or aiding the rigging) of same failures over and over again. My dear Sir, you will blame democracy or our choice? Agreed the first arrangement was brought in by military and many people were skeptical but what about the second in 2003? The 3rd in 2007? The 4th where people voted for "Good luck" instead of antecedent in 2011? The 5th where people voted for a man that never outlined his plans for 4 years instead of those that had plans? What about at state level? APGA has never conducted LG polls in Anambra state since 2006 they took over yet Anambrans are cool with them and keep voting them. PDP likewise refused to conduct when they held sway prior in same state. Yet people over there are cool not minding that they are denied grassroots development. That's a case study as many States simply manipulate LG polls to suit the incumbent party, yet how many ppl complain? My brother/sir, a society will bear the consequence of her action. We can't blame democracy... 1 Like 1 Share |
