RE: Can anyone explain what is wrong with Nigeria?

in Steem Aware3 years ago

The day I saw the value of the Nigerian economy, how robust it is and what the government use this funds to do, like burying them in soakaway, sending them to outside bank account... That's the day I knew that nigerian has been marked for all the negative thing that can happen to any county

Thank you for your insight, @lovveday. As a favour, could you resteem this post?

I can relate to your frustration with your government. Canada is going through something similar. There is a charity in Canada headed by two brothers who are friends with the Prime Minister and his family. This charity employs the Prime Minister's mother, brother and wife to be motivational speakers. The Canadian government almost gave the charity $1 Billion to run a particular project before the corruption came to light. An example of what they would do is accept donations to build schools in Africa. They had enough donations to build over 900 schools in Kenya. They only built around 300. They would take pictures of schools with a plaque naming the donor. They would then switch it for another plaque naming a different donor. In some cases, they did this four times.

That was 😞 bad

When I give a thumbs up to people on Steem, I know they will get it.

I hate talking about nigeria, in my mind it's not worth the stress... It unfortunate I live in nigeria and I school in nigeria.... I just don't try to understand my life as a nigerian

Am not say I would be better off at other countries, but am not happy with my country

I will post something later about immigration to Canada.
