RE: Africa is Doomed - Especially Nigeria.
Hahahah, your musings are hilarious @edumurphy.
Look, I'm sure all of our leaders know about this, most of them sha, if not all - they know about this, but they are prevented from doing it by a lot of factors, a good leader can overcome most of those factors though.
But I've seen an instance where a Nigerian leader embarked on something good but he was stopped in his tracks by some of these factors. When Goodluck Jonathan was the president, he was building a big plant that would supply a large amount of electricity but this plant kept being vandalized and parts of it were stolen. So what could have caused all these? Maybe the generator importers who don't want enough power supply in Nigeria because it is bad for their sales? Or the opposition party who don't want him to achieve something as big as that so his chances at the polls would not be increased? Stuff.
Hope you know I'm not justifying any of these politicians, I'm just carrying out a discussion. Solar may have been the shit though ☺

Oh that's normal for Naija na. Our people have absorbed the corruption down to the lowest levels of society. That's why I chose the Step 1 that I chose because that's the only thing that will put everybody on notice that things are now different.
I totally agree, bro. This stuff about Jonathan did you know it before?
Not Jonathan specifically but I have heard similar stories and it fits the facts. Who gains more from our electricity supply being sabotaged than the generator dealers?
Oh and let's not forget Chimaraoke building that mighty conference center in Enugu only for the two governors after him (Sullivan and the fool Gburu-Gburu) to leave it to rust away into a dead hulk of wasted potential.
That's some shit, really though.
