Ethnicity & Religion have never allowed us succeed.

Zambia is not as prosperous as Nigeria..(per capita gdp is less than Nigeria)..we are at the same level...and would you blame ethnicity and religon for Zambia's issues too?

Nigeria's problem is not ethnicity and religon...it is the idea that we can live on revenue from raw materials that we sell. The problem is the prices of these raw materials is never at a level that can sustain us.

And it is the same issue Zambia faces...infact their economy is dependent partly on copper exports. Over ten years ago, copper prices fell..and their economy was dancing like Nigeria's now.

And it is the problems arising from our poor revenue stream that worsens everything else.

You think we are where we suppose to be?

I am making comparisons wrt passion. Do our leaders have any modicum of passion for Nigeria?

How can you tell me Nigeria's problem isn't ethnicity & religion? I doubt you are in this country. Go tell MURIC or CAN that now.

Don't make excuses for these people.

1.That's a big strawman you put up there.

2. Like I said, Nigeria and Zambia's problem is not ethnicity and religion...it is that we are resource dependent nations....who earn a trenous revenue from the raw materials we sell.

3.Go and read my comment again...slowly.

4.Also read this article by Field Ruwe...which is indicative of where I want us to be

Ikillbrokehoes:
This is what will happen to Nigeria if our uselsess leaders don't stop borrowing from them

O well when that happens we will cross that bridge

So once we become non-resource dependent, then we will be a fantastic nation?

So, you are looking at it from a financial POV? Once there is cash, everything will be fine, right?

No P.....

No P.....

Go and read the article I linked....

But to summarize it for you...once we use our raw materials to fuel our industrial development, and once we become an actively exporting industrial nation...we will prosper.

Oil will not save us.

Good evening.

And your strawmen are getting bigger.

One day,he was on his bicycle going somewhere and a bush path led to where he was going.
It was lonely and there was no one around, only himself, riding on a bicycle. Not too long, from a little distance ahead,he saw a lion on the bush path and he stopped. He was looking at the lion and the big feline, already,I'm sure, thanking his God for providing it's next meal in its heart,was also staring at him...but Kaunda wasn't scared all that,he was brave and had a mission to complete..but there he was,face to face with imminent danger.. something goes wrong and he might become a TV screen superstar ,watch by millions while being feasted on by a pride!!!! No way,not me,he must have said to himself.

He made some loud sound as if to scare the curious but deadly Simba but no,Simba stood still, waiting for a chance..
Kenny then threw some sticks and other items but yet, Felix Leo still Randa gidigba..
Kenny now thought,"which Kain wahala be dis,nah,who send you come,ain't you gonna tell them say I nor dey house?"

In a final desperate move,Kaunda now gathered some courage and strength and picked up his bicycle and waved it left, right,up and down menacingly and, with the speed of sound,Simba became like a frightened puppy and disappeared into the forest.
Kenneth Kaunda was always unstoppable and always victorious.

I read one of his books. Zambia must be free

RIP sir

Read sane during my secondary school days

According to Achebe in his book "There was a Country" Kenneth Kaunda and Julius Nyerere of Tanzania were the first African Leaders to lend their voice in support of Biafra. For that and other reasons I celebrate him.
RIP KK may your soul find eternal rest.

Triquetra:
We dont know what he actually did but my instinct told me he was a very great leader, even for him to share a moment with Martin luther king jnr......its worth it..

Nice piece

Rest in peace one of Africas foremost nationalist who always stood by the truth spoke the truth even when everyone found it hard speak up. That is why world dominated by imperialist opressors will find it hard to celebrate you.

RIP.

He for no die now...

adolfHitler1934:
I can sight Emperor Heil Silesia of Ethiopia, Kenneth Kaunda of Zambia and Mobutu Sese Seko Mabanga of Congo former Zaire.
Robert Mogabe was missing there though.

Our own here will never make such history except to be remembered that he banned Twitter and valued cow above human lives

Great Men of Africa... Rest on.

Emperor Haile Selassie was overthrown in 1974 and Mugabe became president in 1980 so this picture was taken probably late 60's or early 70's.

I thought Buhari is dead, we're being led by jubril El sudaani.

ValCon888:
And this is how Buhari will die in the future.
But he will not be remembered for anything great except being a failed president, ethnic bigot, Islamic fundamentalist, and nepotistic dullard.

RIP SIR

When will the mannequin in Aso rock join his age grade for crying out loud?

Buhari and Kaunda na mate?
