NEPA mandates you to fix the transformer when it's faulty with your money and still come and collect monthly bill from you.

Your comment paints the clear picture of what the section of a town that I reside is currently facing.

Water corporation incharge of water supply in Town can't fix their transformer.
Nepa is waiting for water corporation to fix the transformer...
Water Corporation is nuturing the idea of taxing the community for a new transformer.

I tell you! grin It is actually a violation of someone's property (car) it is the same as urinating on your TV, phone or computer..

It turns out the guy could not even afford a car head light.

That day i just drove out of a car wash, paid for polishing, washing and valleting.

You can imagine agent for house rent giving you bill like:

House rent - โ‚ฆ2.5m

Service charge- โ‚ฆ500k

Agreement- 10%

Commission - 10%

Damages - 10%.

Total package- โ‚ฆ3,750,000.

And we think this is normal, no one is speaking against it. This is corruption itself, we the citizens are our own enemies.

What other things related to this have we all accepted to be normal?

What part of the globe are these things being accepted as normal?

Clearly almost every Naigerian adult is corrupt and untrusworthy. As long as these practise continues nothing, i mean, nothing will ever ever change for better in Naigeria. A People cannot be doing the same thing and expecting different results.

Would you vote for someone who says I will not fix your roads, I will not fix power, I will not create employment opportunities, I will not fix the economy, I will not secure Nigerians... because this is the opposite of what you are saying.


Nope, but people should grow mentally to level that we know this is their primary assignment in power, they shouldn't use this to campaign but rather something more logical, something one can reckon with.


Let me tell you a little story, I am living in the north, there's a town close by that lost access to electricity due to the insurgency, personally I thought the electricity cannot be restored, bit guess what, the siting governor came during campaign period and promised to restore the electricity, he started and halted the work, he came back and now say he will complete the work after he won the election,.
I begin to ask myself, so this electricity can be restored and this people have been living in gross darkness, not because the electricity cannot be restored but because someone is selfish enough to use it for his gain.

First, sex for grades - many females throw themselves at lecturers to exchange sex for pass grades. Secondly, bribery - many Nigerians are happy to pay bribes to circumvent the system.

LMAO!

Funny part about this is, I literally get very enraged when a stranger empties his urea on my vehicle tyre, but I take delight in doing it myself.

You know that sense of ownership and dominance dogs have when they urinate in an environment or on an object? I subconsciously feel it when I pee on my tyres๐Ÿ˜‚. But if them born your papa well, piss on my tyre and see if I won't break your neck if I catch you.

Iโ€™m not rooting for any politician obviously. The fact however is that with the current state of Nigeria, those are the things Nigerians need. So, to win their votes, you have to promise them that.

Give it a try, think about canvassing for votes in Nigeria. Without these sectors we talk about and the desire to fix them, what else can a person give Nigerians?
