This is how development comes - when you have focused, responsible and determined leadership irrespective of military or democratic pattern. Same country alongside Burkina Faso, Mali that Tinubu zombies said are landlocked depending on Nigeria for their survival. They have even formed their own union alliance thereby cutting themselves from the apron strings of ECOWAS under the fraud on seat.

Now all these nations led by these young military turks have also freed their respective nations from the griphold of neo-colonists and imperialism thereby facilitating their own development. Meanwhile, the disaster they have enthroned here back home have so much bastardized Nigeria beyond repair.

Even an elder that does not respect himself will have the children playing with his testicles at the village square. Everyone must not be a zombie.

No nation can develop with backyard subsistence farming practice that you APC goons are trying to push Nigerians into. If that was the case, Buhari would have had increased cattle. Nigerians are not hungry because they are all not going to farm. But they are hungry because the right things have not been don by the government.
Look at that farm in the picture. How many thousands of people it can feed, with machines and few human beings operating on them? But imagine the thousands of Nigerians it would have taken to plant that level of farm land in their various backyards with crude tools like hoe and cutlasses?

Peter Obi or someone like him will come someday to take up the steering of the Nigerian boat and we are going to rejoice then.

You do not expect something from someone who promised you nothing.

No nation can develop with unintelligent people. Back yard farming as an example only illustrates an attitude of a people who are willingly to grow by exploiting all opportunities. That's the message being passed. It's not a limitation. Is it not the same people who are unable to be productive on a micro level that you expect to be productive on a mega level. YOU CAN'T GIVE WHAT YOU DON'T HAVE.

South West regional government should take a cue from this and make agriculture one of our topmost priorities.
They should push for death penalty on any herder caught in open grazing anywhere in the South West region.. If the retrogressive ones up North don't want progress, then they should keep suffering alone.

He has to be bitter if not you won't recognise his efforts. Just imagine everyone keeping quiet while our politicians steal as much as they want. Our major problem in this country is tribalism and the funny part is our leaders don't want to take the necessary step to stop this menace
