Oyenuga Lanre Paul Omoba Toba Omidele III, as much as many may
view your question with a sarcastic eye, I will venture to give an answer. The
rule of law sustains societies, but in Nigeria, there is only the rule of men.
MKO was one of such men. When the man is out in a society such as ours, his
control also fizzles out with him. What befell MKO nearly befell OBJ, and shall
befall Dangote, Adenuga, Otedola, etc, SO LONG AS WE OPERATE A SYSTEM OF RULE
OF MEN. This is why I'm amused at those who think they can keep wealth for
generations in Nigeria. Nigeria is a land of Pirates and other Pirates will
raid your store once you are outta reckoning. Haven't you seen the battle
between Turaya Yar'Adua and DAME over the land in Abuja? That was what became
of MKO bizs my bro.
Awolowo was the leader
and Akintola was the politician - this is my assessment, understanding of these
men. I also believe that Awolowo was a better region leader, premier...
Akintola was a better outside, national, international representative. Akintola
should have stayed in Lagos. Awolowo spoke truth, and he spoke it as he felt
it, this is my personality as well, it isn't the most diplomatic route in the
world. But, we must all endeavor to be ourselves, and remain true.....Gody

Kayode Ogunfeibo It
was easy for anyone with his thinking cap on in 1981 to figure out that the
Nigerian economy was about to take a big hit. The high oil prices in 1979/80
because of the Iran/Iraq war, had led to double digit inflation in the West and
forced their central banks to jack up interest rates, which pushed their
economies into recession. That in turn, sharply reduced global demand for oil
which is the mainstay of the Nigerian economy. When the price of oil started
collapsing from 1981 onwards, the Nigerian economy collapsed with it. What
worries me about our present situation is oil prices are sky high, but our
foreign reserves are stagnant, because we are spending the oil revenues like drunken
sailors. If the oil price collapses again, I shudder to think about the
consequences this time around.
John Amadi ReMastered It's
truly unfortunate. By now Nigeria should not only be the superpower of Africa
but even a world power. With all the man power, resources and space we have we
should be a superpower and this is not an exaggeration. We should be better.
Lol our leaders are neocolonialist that's why...white men in black skin.
"If debates on national issues are exclusively for the old, if
interviews on policies that affect us all are meant for those in power alone,
if analysis on pressing and begging matters in our nation are only meant for
political office holders, why then are we called the leaders of tomorrow?"
- David Oluwasegun Ogundipe
“When we formed the PDP
and candidates emerged, the governors earmarked huge amounts of money to buy
arms for youth groups so as to use them in winning thte election.
“I met and told them that if they used them and after winning the election, they fail to provide them with jobs, they will rise against the people in their states. These are the youths who later turned into the Niger Delta militants you’ve been hearing about. Also, a similar thing happened in the North, I met a governor and told him that these youths you assembled and called ECOMOG will become dangerous later and that was what eventually happened. I spoke to all these governors, I alerted all of them.”.....Atiku Abubakar
