Why Are We Been Tribalistic When The Real Problem Is Corruption! by Judeylive(m): 4:13pm On Jun 11, 2011
When I see the kind of posts on here, I just shake my head and spit out at the state of mind of some Nigerians. Why are Nigerians in competition against each other? Why do we rejoice at each other's woe? The fact that a particular tribe did something well doesnt mean the others cant achieve same feat. Why is that if something terrible happens in Igboland, the Yoruba/Hausa will be happy, cursing out at them and excluding themselves out. Why is it that if Hausas started their killings, the Igbo and Yoruba will start cursing the Hausa forgeting the people killed and their relatives. What actually concerned them is that it is Hausas that did the deeds. Tell me, don't Igbos and Yoruba kill their brothers for rituals? Now, I'm not excluding the Hausa from the crimes, but it will be more effective if we all join hands and fight against against the killers. Afterall, not all Hausas are killers and not all Igbos and Yorubas are saints.

Why do we keep biting at each other throats when we know the terrible things all the tribes are doing have a cummulative effects on all of us in Nigeria?

If we can have a profund affection for a brother from Ghana, why cant we extend such grace to our fellow country men?

While we are busy fighting each other, our leaders, who are the real problems are uniting together to rob us all of our birthrights. Doesnt it amazes you guys the way the House always unanimously agree and vote instantly for their salary or allowance increase? But they will never implement any law that will provide jobs for you and I. They will leave our universities unfunded, below standards and they will send their children abroad for schooling. They will leave the hospitals unequipped and go abroad to check the extra strand of hair growing on their hands or for any slight headache. Meanwhile, who will go to those hospitals? Is it the politians or the Hausa, Igbos and Yorubas?

For the Igbos, is a honest hausa/yoruba man doing his trade sincerly a more enemy to you than your representatives in the house siphoning monies into his account abroad?

To the Yorubas, is that Igbo trader a more enemy to you than Bankole who connives with other leaders to steal our money?

To the Hausa, are those dudes from the south helping your economy out a more enemy to you than your governors using all the allocations to his state to run around marrying a million wives?

Cant you guys see you are vesting your anger and annoyance on the wrong set of people? G.E.J and Sambo wont be on each other throats like we do on Nairaland, instead they will be strategizing to either move this country forward or to enrich their pockets. Whatever they decided to do, they will do it together forgetting the part of the country they come from.

The problem of Nigeria, as we all know, is corruption. And i'm sure 'corruption' is not from any particular tribe in Nigeria but from our politicians who will do anything to enrich their pockets.

Why cant we all join hands together and fight against our enemy instead of ourselves. And we all know who the real enemy is.

Blazay, I don't understand your bible quotings, even the spelling of your Jesus is powerless. If you use that to cast out demons it will not work. What Judeylive is saying is correct, if we all unite it will be better for us in Nigeria, but all we know is to shoot our selves down. Nigerians always behave like animal like they call us in the developed countries. They see bad and evil things as been good. God help us.
