I've been reading alot about who is the best tribe, the better looking women, who has the sexiest accent, although the topics are entertaining, they are not of much substance when threre are majore issues in Nigeria. Please could you tell me what could be done to have a social service administration set up for women and and small children so that food and medical help can be provided. Why can't children that are in primary school go to shcool free? You talk about the road need to be paved, safe public transportation is needed, how do you as a people get there thing implemented? When Nigeria is full of natural ores and oil, why are not these used to pave the way for the restoration of nigeria, Why is it that the natural wealth is there but it is not used for the people? Things that i saw when i visit Nigeria made me very sad, but hopeful, please tell me what can blacks in Ameriaca do to help our brothers and sisters in Africa, I am only one person, but i do know others with the same concerns. Much Love

I've heard many say that Nigeria is hopeless.
But for my faith in God,I would agree.

Grew up in a Nigeria (in my younger days) with running water in the shower,constant supply of electricity,good passable roads,trash collection,fire brigade service,stocked hospitals.
These are now stories,I'll be telling my children.

You make me wonder how old u are sef. Stop bragging except u grew up in Dodan barracks, Aso Rock or Victora Garden City or one of those Shell quarters. Constant Power supply. Do u know since when that was history. Trash collection u can only say that happened during Buhari regime which was 1983-85 War Against Indiscpline.

_{Dont insult me oohh, and if u must insult me come to our thread don't do it here.}

Minimizing corruption is the key. There has to be a way to curtail African leaders from inflating the cost of government projects and outright looting of the treasury. I don't know how feasible this will be in light of the Banking regulations in Europe and America. Successive African leaders will continue to stow away their countries riches in foreign banks, for the benefit of family and friends until a pragmatic action is taken with the assistance of western government curtail it. In the interim, most African countries will continue to wallow in the resultant poverty until majority of the population become aware to assert their right and demand the rule of law.
