Akalia:Everything is about government. Even if you can't do the right thing as a citizen, you still blame the government. I've worked in an organization where staff members are drawn from 5 different countries. The Nigerian side has the lowest wage rate among them even below Indians. And the funniest thing is that, the CEO is a Nigerian. We too like to take undue advantage of ourselves and blame the government for everything. How about everyone do the right thing first and see the ripple effect on the society? You can't have good government when the people are bad and unpatriotic themselves. Till tomorrow, the quality of the government will always be a reflection of the people. |

DeOTR:When the government set standards or precedents by formulating and implementing people-oriented policies and then compel people to adhere then we have a good thriving culture in the making. Nigerians are on survival mode-more like survival of the fittest mindset hence the unpatriotic behaviors and this is a direct result of lack of sound administrative performance on the part of the government. Why I will always heap the brunt of the blame on those in government is because they are in charge of vast resources at their disposal to make significant impact more than individual quota from common citizens. The reason Nigerians are unruly is because the system headed by unruly politicians is in disarray. Get my point? |
