Nigeria in the present age is in disarray. Quite a lot has gone wrong in the psyche of almost every Nigerian. The Nigerian mentality is strange and obscure. Many people no longer think critically to assess the situation they find themselves in. This is quite shameful.
The stormy waters started being coloured right from the beginning. Children in primary schools now watch blue films at the mercy of the house maids, and at times try to practice what they have watched. They can educate an adult on what sex is. Is that the civilization that we are preaching about?
Then when they enter secondary school, they start wearing mini - gown and skirt uniforms and bare bottom trousers with spaghetti hands, and the boys wear ash level torn trousers. They now start having boy friends and girl friends, and now practice the bedmatics of sex openly and fearlessly.
At the end of their senior - WAEC, their parents pay huge money for them to take their exams at "Special Centers" where mercenaries write the exams for them with the connivance of the Invigilators and Supervisors with a fat sum of envelopes to go home with. They eventually pass with flying colours. This is at the detriment of a society that wants to be progressive.
They now enter higher institutions of learning. They have no stuff in their heads to carry on with university learning. They now resort to "sorting of lecturers, who will give them robust grades according to what they have paid." Some even go as far as sleeping with the lecturers to maximize grades. That was why I formed "The GOUNI ANTI - CORRUPTION VANGUARD," in 2016 to make the students "watch dogs" in reporting and combating crime in higher institutions of learning, and in the society in general.
When they now graduate, the government and some private employers stress on certificate level one has acquired from the higher institution . They have 'god fathers or god mothers' who push them in to high seats in government to avoid the rigorous exercise of interviews of competency. People who claim to have first class or even otherwise from higher institutions have absolutely nothing to offer the government and society where they are working. it is ironic and ridiculous.
They now join cult groups to protect them from their shame and incompetence. The cult masters and heads now tell them to make blood rituals and sacrifices so as to preserve their highly placed positions in office and to make them higher above their mates and to have the wherewithal to vie for political positions. They now kill their fathers, mothers, wives, husbands, sisters, brothers, children, their friends or very close relatives, nobody is exempt. What an irrational society?
When they get into public elective offices or appointed offices, they start embezzling and siphoning money to have valuable assets in Dubai, United Arab Emirates or Switzerland. The majority of the poor masses are languishing in poverty, pain and penury. There is no middle class in Nigeria. You have the super rich and majority poor.
For the poor who want to get rich by all means, they resort to kidnapping, armed robbery, ritualism and blood sacrifices, terrorism, witch practices, and fraudsters. How can you tell over 168 million Nigerians, that they will be given N10 million Naira each to empower them? Then the extortion of these mindless and vulnerable Nigerians begin. They pay N500.00 to purchase the empowerment forms and fill them with two passport sized photographs.
Then after three months, they are being called up again to pay N2,700.00 to process the forms in Abuja. They are being brain - washed that these monies are coming from World Bank, being proceeds of looted monies being repatriated back into the country. And these people are so hopeless, they have failed to ask the question - why can't the organizers of these so called empowerment schemes deduct N3,200.00 from the purported N10million Naira they have promised to give to them?
Yet, many people are so desperate to reap where they have not sowed, and are desperate to part with the little divine providence have given them. This is 'big and perilous sin' number one.
That is why I always write that 95% of the people are not great, and will continue to fail the success test. Can you imagine the robbing of Peter to pay Paul? Unbelievable and unimaginable.
