Why do people think is a mistake to be Nigeria??

[Mekie21]

The major reason I will want to think it's a mistake being a Nigerian is the bad leadership of our leaders. Apart from this reason I don't see any mistake being a Nigerian. The so called people that think "it's a mistake being a Nigerian" are still part of those contributing to the corruption the country in their own little way. I would say one man effort probably will not change anything, but when hands are put together we will likely achieve a common goal. You can make your bed suitable for you to lay on, likewise you can make the country in which you reside.

I don't see any mistake being a Nigerian. Nigeria is very sweet especially if you have a good source of income. I have a friend who have travel to several countries and he still prefer Nigeria. No country is flawless,infact the Most advanced nations in the world still have homeless citizens,corrupt leaders,high level of crimes and other.I have no regret being a Nigerian.

For me I don't think Nigeria is a bad country, well the people leading it are the bad ones because when it comes to resources we have it when. Nigeria is a wonderful country but just that we aren't helping ourselves mostly the corruption side and the jobless side of it, all the leaders only thinks about their selves and that's bad. Nigeria is one of the calmest country when it comes to fights, so I would say those people thinking that it's a mistake to be Nigerian i would say it's because of the financial situation that's has been there since day one that we are giving birth. But currently now it increases everyday some people can't cope with it some aren't working anymore some homeless but you won't put that blame with the leaders or blame because you're from here no. Go other countries they're also facing calamitys as we do. And one the major people that kills us that, most people are mentally unstable in their financial Lifestyle but they'll give birth to more then 5 kids without no work.

So it's never a mistake to be a Nigerian, we blame the government in very areas but we haven't come to our sense one day that the government are doing what they know. Let's not give up because someday everyone is going to be proud of his/she country.

I know Nigeria isn't that good now, things are costly every day we hear that the dollar is high. But now the dollar price is low and things are still costly let the blame not only be for the leaders only but the also the market people as well. But i won't lie to you the government are also trying their best because their are good ones at trying to make things better, we shouldn't use because some are not trying in other states. Where I blame Nigeria most it's when election time comes that's when corruption occurs mostly, and people get tired of voting because who has the majority votes won't be the winner. So that's where I know Nigeria it's mostly corrupt, when it comes to hardworking we're very hard working. Apart from the corruption in elections period and the financial side I think Nigeria is not a country to be regretting to be one then.

This is the most part I noticed that the government are not good at this act, retirement plan. Their are people who are retired and keep on hoping and believing that with their retirement plan (pension) would be paid without no stress or struggling for it, so that they can invest with it but majority today are in their graves because they've waited for it no way. So would say in this particular point the government are not really helping the nation's,

You don't have someone on top you can't get your retirement plan, so if they can put an end to all this stuffs I think majority won't be in the street begging for food. And even when it's comes to work, majority the youth's are not happy at all some would say after spending time and all the years in school no job, why? It's because they don't have someone at the top to help them most of them would say, if they would have known they have lent an handwork the wasting all the time in school. For me Nigeria is a better country but for others I don't think you should rate Nigeria as a mistake in your life. If only they can see the where faults are come but they can't sort all out at one's.

Nigeria is a wonderful country but just that we aren't helping ourselves mostly the corruption side and the jobless side of it, all the leaders only thinks about their selves and that's bad.

Due to the level of corruption and bad government, lack of job opportunities and many others, a lot of people are beginning to complain about the country, well I don't blame them for their complaints because a lot of citizens don't even enjoy their fundamental human rights even while being patriotic citizens of this country but people should understand that Nigeria is not the worst country in the world.

 Despite the hardship and lootings by our government I'm still proud to be a Nigerian and I'll rather come from Nigeria than many other countries iwhere there's no peace, for example Iraq, Somalia, North Korea, Dr Congo, Sudan, Yemen, Mexico, Central Africa, Afghanistan and many others. Atleast after the civil war in the 60's we've not experienced another civil war  but there are countries that's been a war year in year out, countries like Syria and Iraq yet people still exist there.

 I think if our government could change their bad governance and begin to lead by example, also creating job opportunities, build good roads and infrastructures, restructure our educational system, I think most citizens who's been forced into the streets to commit crimes for survival would begin to change and our country would get better, Nigeria is a country blessed by our maker with so many rich natural resources that could make us compete with developed nations but then bad governance lead us to this point and forced youths to go into various crimes. Well I still believe change is coming and our country would go back to being the giant of Africa.

Na because the government no dey like support good things wey person get for the country dem bad belle too much,dem no want make people grow mainly the youths , teenagers and even small Pikin.

Yes some how I agree with them because a lot is going wrong in the country
This is Nigeria were you see animals eat money, Nigeria is a place people do a lot of things bad roads and corruption has taking all over, but still on still as the matter be we all still dey believe on change of the country, come wetin u think?? u don ever think am

Why people think is a mistake to be a Nigeria is because of some certain attitude exhibited by Nigerians. This attitude has brought many negative effect on us, both locally and internationally this things they do made many people to regret why they are called Nigerians but I believe In Due time Nigeria will take it shapes in.

[Zackz5000]

There can be some many reasons why people will think is a mistake to be a Nigerian, first looking at the country situation now year after year instead of things to get better it is getting worst cost of things are high cost of foodis high, transportation is high, infact everything in the country is very high as it stands now.

Secondly the high rate of insecurity in the country is much in everyday news one will hear how to boko haram are killing people kidnapping here and there.

Lastly I know that there is no country that is not corrupt but Nigeria own too much, ok just imagine what our judiciary did concerning the judgement of the last concluded election why won't people think is a mistake to be a Nigerian?.

[Berry2d]

The question why do people think is a mistake to be Nigeria is a statement that almost every Nigerians make in a daily basis. I know that no country is a perfect place to be or live. But at least there are still countries that are better place to live in. In respective of high tax rate paid by any abroad base person, it is very difficult for such abroad base person to live that comfortable environment to Nigeria without any important assignment. Every government have a very big role to play when it comes to the life and security of it's citizens. I don't see any protection of life in Nigeria today. No good governance. Everybody do things any how they feel like. Is in Nigeria that I see that some group of people are above the law. What about lack of job opportunities. So many who have graduated from school with good certificate many years ago are still moving from street to street all in the name of seeking for a job. Many graduate died with their certificate in poverty. Should we talk about the hardship in our country Nigeria now. So I am not against Nigerians who think is a mistake to be in Nigeria.

Nigeria gets a bad knock many times with all the issues like corruption and poor governance eating up our country. It's tough seeing all these things happening. But you know what Despite everything we still hold onto hope for change in the country one day. It's like a wave of emotions,  We see the bad, but we also see the potential for things to get better because Nigeria is a country blessed with so many natural resources and citizens are endowed with so many potentials. This issue of corruption and bad governance in Nigeria started long time ago, and it has eaten deep into the system. Governments and those in power should have stopped  these bad practices but it keep on growing and spreading. The corruption in Nigeria has taken over the executive, legislative bodies and the judiciary system who.are supposed to watch each other and prevent these bad practices from taking place but rather they keep encouraging each other, these are the major challenges we are facing in this country (Nigeria). Because these acts keep putting us on the wrong track and keep depleting the reputation of our nation and painting our citizens with the wrong image and perspective.

Many people will complain about Nigeria because we are in the era that people prefer to depend on government than themselves. They want the government to do everything for them. To provide to good job, and if possible, to subsidize some products and services.

In Nigeria, you will see people from poor background that become rich and become well known in his town. If that is still possible, it means many people will complain, but some people will still live a good life.

As some people are complaining, in the same Nigeria some people are earning on foreign currencies like United States dollar and some people are still living comfortably.

Some people will not just get it but be complaining and explaining how a situation is. Yes, I agree to the fact that Nigeria economy and standard of living is poor.

Perfectly said, am totally agree with you because sometimes I used to wonder why people always depend on government work why there are some many ways of making cool money online with their sell phone, we all know that our country is hard but we should not always fold our hands and be wetin for government to bring work for us before we know that we most work hard.

You are absolutely correct, too much depending on government no dey good and also, to make money online no easy as you take talk am cause if to say e easy like that everybody for don blow (get money) since. Shey na person wey get something go invest online or offline perhaps they have stated the reasons some people think or feel is a mistake to be a Nigerian, I use some people because it's not everybody that is thinking like that and people who think that way are mostly poor people and people that are struggling ( unfortunate people) to survive cause Tinubu can never say one that him being a Nigerian is a mistake. however, I fit dey complain based on waiting i dey see for the country but i no fit talk say na mistake wey I be Nigerian cause God know why I be Nigerian.
