I was born and lived my college days in Nigeria and I was once of your opinion until I live somewhere else. The system has to work for people can think straight and profess solutions and take the nation to greater height. A situation you don't know where your next meal is coming from is not a situation to think. A situation everyday you go to work seems like your last day is not a situation to think.
We need to sit down as a nation and talk about the basic. The economy and the national in general needs to be restructure into a more sustainable way.

bkool7:
to start with .
We, are the govt . What the V.P is saying is that uf you have brilliant innovative ideas ...the govt is ready to hear you out to come work together with them .

govts are humans .theyre not super heros .
they need the support and cooperation of you and i

i think thats fair enough

diegwu01:
**** your type would place and empty plate an their dining and expect it to get filled because you voted for someone that promised you free food. Why get angry at the VP because he asked you to be smart in your reasoning and everyday work to help grow the Nation. Yes! there re a lot of Hardworking Nigerians like Myself and of course may Lazy ones like you who would even blame the government for leaking roof over their head.

HtwoOw:


Who said anything about free everything ? i said some nigerians expect government to do anything for them

Obasanjo brought ICT and GSM, where were you when Jonathan tried to sell NIGCOMSAT to his buddies ??

The power deal Fashola made with a japanese or was it chinese firm , that's nothing ? and your brothers blowing up pipelines what's their deal ??

It's easy to blame the government for the crimes we commit , but in this case , i know Buhari is doing his best and things are changing for the better

Many lazy Nigerians would expect to sit down and expect the Government to provide them with food on their table,
yet every night they dream to be Dangote or bill Gates..

EVEN GOD GAVE ISRAELITES KING WHEN THEY CLAMOURED FOR IT (GOD IS A DEMOCRAT)

HOW MANY CLAMOUR HAVE YOU CLAMOUR

HOW MANY CANDIDATES HAVE YOU CAMPAIGNED FOR

HOW MANY ELECTIONS HAVE YOU CONTESTED
HOW MANY PETITIONS SIGNATURES HAVE YOU MOBILISED
HOW MANY LETTERS HAVE YOU WRITTEN TO YOUR REPS

I'm glad people now stand up to them and very soon, stones will start flying over their heads. Only then will I be patriotic and contribute my own quota.

As a matter of fact, I don dey pack stones for pocket for the D-Day.

greatgod2012:

I perceive it's already getting to that, but I'll prefer if we're civil about it all.
Honestly, this APC did bite more than what they could chew in terms of their promises made.

edoyad:


No Nigerian has asked Nigerian govt to give them free light, water or anything. The data I'm using right now was not provided by govt, however Obasanjo govt through good policies brought about GSM and ICT to Nigeria.
That is all we are asking them to do in other sectors, if they can't then they should not act surprised in 2019 when we do the needful

ghostmist:
****did anybody point a gun to their heads when they were promising heaven and earth?? so, you are saying nobody should hold them accountable for what they said they would do??


besides, you didn't answer my question...

list out all the wonderful things your government has done for you..

now listen up.....Nigerians are hardworking people who do not depend on the government for anything. From providing water for ourselves to ensuring we have electricity via our generating sets and just about every other thing. If you have proof to the contrary, then state your claim.

In saner climes, Osibanjo's challenge is a call to duty , some people would ask the government to iron their clothes , wash their pants and even spoon feed them if they could

Living in the western world's reality when indeed they live, have lived and continue to live in Africa , and those are the people who hail likes of FFK, Fayose, Metuah and Co

aresa:



All the developed nations we admire faced the same situation, but they made lemon water out of lemon, they get creative and proffer solutions to their problems government or no government.


They say necessity is the mother of invention, but the average Nigerian youths want to be spoon fed without using their God's given brain.


Inventions and solutions emanates out of necessities and mot the other way around..


It's the same situation where some useless governors begged the FG for common bridge for 30 years while their mates in other states are building their own bridge in no time. They beg for road, they beg for airport, they beg for every damn thing when in fact they collect taxes and allocations from their people..


FG is not your daddy and progress and development is our collective responsibility, not just the FG.

harmbhrosz:
are you even human ? Or should I ask how old are you?

I'm definitely older than you if this is all you can come up with after all the education you're supposed to have gotten


I don't think this is coming from an adult that is intellectually sound



See above



I'm repeating it pls, how old are you? Wow I'm fuvking amazed at what you just wrote

Obviously
It is to be expected from a mindless drone that cannot thimk for itself



As a citizen I don't have RIGHTS, I only have privileges?? W.T.F?


What are rights
I'm sure you cannot define them



You're even bringing God into this?

No slowpoke
I brought the Bible
You pass English waec so?
abi... O OK you're a neco baby. Now I understand




God even understood the basics amenities of mankind, that's why he provided the sun, the rain, light and darkness, night and day, soil and water, and so on.


And what can you do if he decides to take them doofus




That's why they're privileges you doofus



Now what has the Governments provide for it people?

Exactly what the people asked for

Rice, lies, deceit (personally. I don't think they deceived anybody. You're all grown asss individuals)



Is it road, electricity, water, jobs, security?
This are the things we've struggled to provide for our selves.


Na una wan form hero na
It's not their fault you refuse to demand for your ''rights ''
All they see are fools and magas and one chancees



You're asking the farmers to protect themselves?


No be dem wan protect diaselves
Stop eagles from playing ball and see how ppl will flood the streets but when it's a serious thing everyone will say at home waiting for auto pilot to kick in


And we pay taxes to the governments which is being used to pay all forms of forces, police the armies and so on and we still need to go ahead and protect ourselves.

Which tax do farmers pay?
Think before you talk.
How many of una de pay tax
You think it's a majority that pays VAT. How many value have you added as an individual.



You're talking about insurance You think every farmer in Nigeria can go for insurance?

Yes they can
They say 'if you think education is expensive, try ignorance'
I'm the same vein ' if you think insurance is expensive, try going commando ' especially in a risky biz like Agric.



Even the old men and women in the villages that got their produce destroyed and even got killed?

See why you need insurance. Yet you all stubbornly ''leave it to GOD '' when you know that statistics don't lie



And how many insurance do you even have on yourself?

health insurance de kampe
And life insurance as soon as I get a beneficiary
Not my fault you're poorly educated




I'm sure you're the type that hides under his mummy's bed and keep typing poo there, coz you sound like you've never faced the reality of every Nigerian struggle b4.

Been there
Done that
And I'm amazed at the ignorance out there
Even by so called educated doll like you
You're supposed to lead your people to the light instead you're the ring leaders of darkness and superstition. Ignorant dolts.


[/b]You're even contradicting yourself by saying WE can only get what we clamoured for e.g the Israelites? I thought your ideology was that we were not suppose to talk? [b]

Mtsch
Oyinbo need to come and teach you gyp how to speak the English language or we start using our vernacular.
Talk is cheap, walk your talk
Fight for your right dummy not talk for your rights (privileges), not complain Abbott your problems, not lament, not epistle, get off your lazy ass and FIGHT for your gaddem privileges


And by the way, I'm a graduate and I paid my way out of all the institution I went to with the help of my parents.


Good

[/b]I'm a farmer who eats his 3square meal comfortablely and doesn't lack the personal basic amenities of life that's bcoz I make them available for myself. And by God's grace I will only go higher.


[b]
Excellent




I'm voicing out because the leaders failed their promises...




And I guarantee you your voice doesn't mean sheet
Do something not say something


You even said they're fighting for their families so we should fight for ours, which means if you get to where they are, you will only fight for yourself and family alone gosh your reasoning disgust me. How old are you again??




Of course
Wetin concine me with fools that refuse to stand and fight for what they claim to believe in
Eediots that will run away when the going gets tough.
bleeping cowards all of you lot.
You deserve the leaders you get.
Until you learn to stand up for yourselves you will never get any good leaders



You and about 2 other people of your kind are the only odd ones on this thread

dunno who they are but I like em already
They are willing to face the truth while you ignorami choose to bury your head in the sand.

Why will I be talking about empowerment and baggars will be talking about rice and sharing of loot
Talking about changing things idiotr will be talking about 'so long as I can feed my family in OK ' or stoopidly saying 'there is no hope, so God should help only then to survive.
Tunda faya una

The guy has a point.

harmbhrosz:
lol wow...

Let me even leave the name calling aside coz it shows how uncivil and ill-matured you are.
Features & details
ohoo e de sweet you when you de wan opata
You can dish it out but can't take it
Learn to speak respectfully in public next time
I never attack, always defend
If you don't have home training we will do it on your parents behalf
You claim to be older than me but can't can't have a sound argument without calling names at this your age(if that's even true coz i dont care) lol
you know I am definitely older and you have no argument
Just beating about the bush


I said """God even understood the basics amenities of mankind, that's why he provided the sun, the rain, light and darkness, night and day, soil and water, and so on"""
and what do you call anything that w
as provided for you and can be taken away
Rightsdenote compulsion
God can take any of your ''rights '' away
Except the right to choose

You said """
And what can you do if he decides to take them doofus"""

I still don't understand how a proposed grown human would reason like this....lol
were you comparing the superiority of God(who can decide to take them & doesn't owe us any explanation) to a human who was elected( since they're also suppose do what they desire without being held accountable for their promises?)
try a little experiment
Slap a drunk armed soldier
And lay claim to your right to fair hearing and dignity of person
You will find out very rapidly how your ''rights '' can be taken away once you can't back it up
When you said """Wetin concine me with fools that refuse to stand and fight for what they claim to believe in
Eediots that will run away when the going gets tough.
bleeping cowards all of you lot.
You deserve the leaders you get.
Until you learn to stand up for yourselves you will never get any good leaders"""

I thought your ideology was "we were not suppose to task our government on the promises they made. we were suppose to just enter the farm and the solution will appear
once again your inability to read and comprehend/bullheadedness(hence the waec reference) exposes your incompetence
So why this statement "until you learn to stand up for yourselves you will never get any good leaders"
The standing up for ourselves means we should all enter farm right? coz that's the baseline of your argument.( Which is even coming from someone who probably has no idea about farming) coz I'm sure you're not in the farm yourself.

blowing grammar on social media is not ''tasking '' your govt
What a willing student would do to learn would be to ask what ''standing up ''meant but obviously you think you know it all and don't need to add to the emptiness between your ears so I will let you wallow in your ignorance

And about the farmin
I have invested in snails poultry and pigs
With fish and plantain and grasscutter on my mind
What's your next excuse
Lack of True federalism Banned you from farming abi

do you now see how contradicting you are to yourself?....lol

no contradiction
You're the functional illiterate
In your own words """ Exactly what the people asked for

Rice, lies, deceit (personally. I don't think they deceived anybody. You're all grown asss individuals)"""

*About rice* we were suppose to feel stupid(coz it served us right) for voting in politicians that ain't keeping their promises right... Coz your ideology is based on all Nigerian voters asking for rice before voting right.

ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding
Finally your Skull is allowing knowledge to seep in
How can any intelligent (allegedly of course) individual vote for a pathological liar with no single track record of integrity who promises what is clearly impossible
*About lies* imagine a lady going into a relationship with a player who eventually got her heart broken by the playboy, I guess your ideology is The world should blame the lady for going into the relationship with the player coz she knew it was all lies right
if you choose to go out with a known wife beater, thief, fraudster, serial cheat then you deserve whatever you get

Do you now hear how you sound?? Lol
truth is bitter innit

Lemme restart you back to why this topic was brought up (check the image below)

The VP is challenging us to think and build solutions for:

--Smart electricity-- with our generator like we're doing ofcoz
solar if you refuse to write letters to them not on an unknown social media that they won't read

--Smart education-- when ASUU and school goes on strike at will with exception of their own kids in our education system
online learning if you refuse to go on strike just before elections instead of just after when they ban afford to call your bluff
--Smart Healthcare-- when they fly abroad for their own treatments
how have protested to show your disapproval
Lemme guess, social media
--Smart Agriculture-- when there's awesomely low attention from the government on food security in Nigeria
when there was awesomely low attention of govt on water and electricity why didn't you thirst to death or lie in perpetual darkness
Lol... I'm not even sure you'll comprehend my post soundly. Goodbye friend you don't worth the rest
