Still in the environment of the 52nd self-[http://tumblr.com/tagged/reliance reliance] anniversary, while on my way from Lagos to Kwara state, while checking out a book and paying attention to music and MP3 messages from my phone with the earphone glued to my ears, I spared some moment considering my precious country, Nigerian and her trip so far. For a nation that is blessed with terrific resources in human, product and natural deposits and yet things are not in appropriate shape in the middle of the 'abundance'.<br><br>It is the conviction of many that Nigeria has issue(s) or better still Nigeria is not running at the level she ought to as an independent nation. A 52 year old for that issue!<br><br>I pick not to belong to such school of idea that Nigeria has problem(s). I belong to a various institution of idea which believes that Nigeria does not have problems. But Nigerians have issues and have actually efficiently contaminated the innocent Nigeria with their troubles. And as a result of this, Nigeria has become a sufferer of Nigerians issues.<br><br>It is a sorry state to be in such a situation triggered by the residents of such a blessed land- blessed with all kinds of resources in abundance. However due to the short-sightedness of individuals the abundance resources have become rare and this confirms the stating that, exactly what a man sees determines (to a huge degree) how he acts and relates to live.<br><br>I will go over about 5 to 6 of the so called issues connected to Nigeria by her occupants or citizens.<br><br>1. Corruption: You'll concur with me that the primary issue on the lips of a lot of individuals if asked what the major problem of 'Nigeria' is, corruption would be the feedback of well over 80 %. It is a terrible situation/experience- where things are not done in the regular means, the absence of stability in handling scenarios and individuals, not being straight in dealing with individuals.  You can find out more about Linda Ikeji Blogspot by visiting [http://wiki.oranim.ac.il/index.php?title=Issues_Encountered_by_Nigerian_Entrepreneur_and_Possible_Solutions Here]. It's hard where to obtain something done you would need to 'tip' the individual who is in position in order to get such thing done. Exactly what a pity state. And as an outcome, Nigeria is related to as among the most corrupt nation worldwide, no thanks to Nigerians.<br><br>Absence of Maintenance Culture: I was left disappointed when I saw the images (slides) of the present state of the National Stadium (Abuja)... I learned the arena was developed with about N50 billion just about 9years ago specifically in 2003 for the 2003 all Africa games hosted by Nigeria ... and to put it back in a 'correct shape' for football matches it'll cost about N100 million ... when are we going to stop wasting money and resources ... It's a sad tale. This is just one amongst lots of centers that have actually fallen sufferer of the Nigerian absence of upkeep mindset which is doing us more damage than excellent.<br><br>3. Selfishness: Stinginess resulting from a concern for your very own welfare and a neglect of others. Nigeria has suffered a lot in the hands of selfish individuals who announce themselves as leaders. [http://www.Wikipedia.org/wiki/Leaders Leaders] who have done absolutely nothing however enhance their pocket at the cost of those they claim to be representing (serving). Leaders and individuals who are concerned about nobody will never ever follow to the demands of the masses. This is the reason you'll see a public servant diverting the general public fund into his personal account.<br><br>4. Hypocrisy: My dictionary defines hypocrisy as, insincerity by virtue of making believe to have qualities or beliefs that you do not actually have. This is an additional peculiar characteristic of Nigerians especially those who claim to be spiritual leaders, it's a pity most of them have sold their conscience for a piece of meat. Those who are suggested to talk senses into the "heads" of this lot of selfish Nigerians who have actually turned themselves to 'god' forgetting the truth that "nothing lasts forever". Isn't a guy of stability expected to act and talk what he says?<br><br>5. Bad Leadership: In the words of Dr Myles Munroe, 'every little thing fluctuates on management', Nigeria is among the most blessed countries on planet earth when it pertains to human resources. It is a pity that she's suffered from one succession of bad administration to another since 1960 (when she became an independent state). In spite of the abundance of human resources, Nigeria has suffered significantly in the hands of people who know little or absolutely nothing about management- people who think management is all about oppressing the leaders and masses having their means. On the contrary, the very best method to lead is to serve; a leader is expected to stand for the general public and not his individual interest.<br><br>I recommend that any candidate competing for any political office or appointed to occupy any office ought to undergo a compulsory school of leadership-where such person will be instructed exactly what leadership is all about. Rather than showing up and abusing power and position, not having any concept of exactly what he/she is expected to do as a leader.<br><br>Let us change our disposition to our nation and approach national issues with zeal and patriotism simply like our heroes past. And I have to stress at this point that, all Nigerians have a part to play in this battle and the reclaiming the lost pride and self-respect of our beloved country, Nigeria. God Bless Nigeria!
