The just concluded elections show that Nigeria's problem is the people of Nigeria and not the government because if you don't like something get rid of it and try another thing. We complained every day about bad governance and how they have brought nothing but pain to us but we are the ones that reelect them most times. I don't use to blame Nigerians for reelecting those bad leaders into power again because they inflate poverty on the masses and come with money to buy their vote but this year's election proved me wrong.
Shortage of naira was the game changer as no politicians were able to buy votes, they did not use the money to change so many people's minds but more than half of those people that voted still choose to reelect the same political party which made our situation worse. People did not vote based on who is competent for the office we voted based on their differences.
Same old
This year's election would have been the best in my country but we make it a tribal war and the problem of this country is beyond voting for the tribe, people are now voting based on emotions, and we let our emotions decide our future for us and instead of using our brain, we choose to remain in poverty rather than voting for a different tribe that would have changed our situation. Former elections are always determined by money spent but this time was a lack of education and orientation.
We have so many old illiterate in Nigeria that everything to them is always about the tribe, they don't care about growth or a better Nigeria. More than 50% of the population lack education and most of the things they believed in are not relevant again. We are in serious trouble and I believe the only way out for Nigeria now is to go out and orientate them because as long we are still together we must find a way to let people know that being a bigot will always make things worst.
This is the main reason why some people believe we can never see a better Nigeria because some set of people will always choose their tribe over a better Nigeria. This is a major problem in Nigeria

Honestly!
It is so pathetic
Instead of people to focus on the issue at hand; the concern to make Nigeria grow and rise from it ruins...
They are concerned with tribes, dis one na our pikin...
Truly, this year's election would have been the best, but people were purposely disenfranchised... with the blatant electoral fraud called INEC.
Mhen!
I wish the stolen mandate will be retrieved!
It'll be a hard journey... but I hope it'll be!
Our case for this country just tire me I swear but we move. I just pray everything get better

I honestly pray
With the clear manipulations of results that has gone worldwide, if their result stands and they rule....
Mhen, international communities won't regard us wella at all. People would only partner with Nigeria because of their selfish interest not out of a need to make positive impact or grow the economy.
Another challenge I have is that the society does not support any movement that looks or is a threat to them. The youths are ready to stand against bad governance but if you are considered a threat, even the first lady will get you picked up and beaten blue black. I hope we continue to pursue with all vigor whatever is needed for good governance
That is the problem with abuse of power!!!
And that's why the Police can go ahead to do whatever they like because they paymaster also does the same...
When there's sanity in the system, all systems will comply.
Infact, if this is allowed to stand... Twitter will soon be censored in Nigeria.. Broadcast media will cease to be independent..
Itis well
Amen and Amen
Do you even get options? In my country, the only thing you can do is vote the lesser evil, but I had enough of that.
Honestly, for many years Nigerians have suffered this... to choose between evil and lesser evil. But this year, we had a third force that sprung up which ("IF COMPARED WITH THE TWO") is a "saint."
Imagine comparing ¹someone who has a drug case hanging on his head, with forged documents from his name, age, sexual identity and family background + obviously senile, King of corruption (evil) and a ²well-known global money launderer (lesser evil), alongside ³someone who had no FACTUAL corrupt allegations against him, even after having wield executive powers for 8 years as a governor, also did well in his time and rejected sucking from the government funds under the guise of ex-governor's benefits (obviously a saint among them).
Yet, we know the process was highly rigged and manipulated, because Nigerians voted for a breathe of fresh air and progress.
However, the painful part is that some people prefer to remain in this backward stage... and not just that, decided to take us 100 times backward by choosing the same political party that has taken us backward + chose the worst of the candidates.... all because people believe that the individual is from a certain tribe... so the tribe should come out to vote enmasse.
It is so pathetic!!!
It's so pathetic man. The truth is that, people are blinded by tribal sentiment. They think voting someone that isn't their tribe is sacrilege. Imagine voting the same APC that has plagued us with poverty and bad governance. I wonder how they think doing the same thing would change the outcome of what we're going through.

My Chief, I do not agree less, the awalokans, more like an entitlement? I am a Medical Doctor. That man is not healthy enough to rule. That man cannot digest 30 pages of documents to restructure this nation better. Decisions will be taken by people around him. I see the North's silence as a wait for them to continue governance IF any morbidity or mortality ensues (power would thus remain in the north). It pained me though but then, we have shown that we can do better. ENDSARS was a movement and we learned our lessons, we tried as youths again this election but not enough. Change may not be immediate but sooner or later, we would have the mandate to move the nation to improved governance and technology
It's more like a presidency by entitlement. We really messed up this chances we have. Until we can seperate religion from what should be viable. Nigeria will not move forward
I hope we get it right soon enough

Well.... It was a sad tale. True it's not just the Government but also the masses. Beyond the fact that many people did not still go out to vote and that some still chose to apply same measure of system expecting a different result(terrible option), the election was rigged.
I was attacked on social media early hours of this morning by a perceived lobbyist telling me that I must remain loyal to the ruling party that provided a platform for my employment to a government job. In summary, I was told to keep quiet in the face of hardship because I was having my salary from the ruling party.
We have a long way to go in Nigeria.
I am however optimistic Chief, from ENDSARS movement that youths are awakening to take over the rulership of the nation. We may not get it immediately but there is a strong awakening and we must not relent on having a good governance in our nation.
Thank you once again
Same old Nigeria, we know the truth but we won't say it, we choose to bad governance over and over again and we are expecting change. Things is just getting worst every day

I was surprised to see Tinubu emerged as the "elected" whether that was foul play or the ignorance of people over tribalism. I was left disappointed and lost of hope for Nigeria.

Very disappointing but I believe a major change is coming to Nigeria.

You sound quite frustrated, which is understandable. Keep you head up, things might change quicker than thought. 🤞🏻💪🏻

Even here in Indonesia, we are facing similar problems too , I mean problem of bad and corrupt leadership , I think the world politics is getting messed up...
The tribalism is terrible and I hate it. I guess it happens everywhere and I hope that it stops. It divides the country and I don't like how people just fall into exactly what those politicians want.
