Re: Corruption in Nigeria as a Problem of Economic Growth and Development
Believe me, I found it a bit uneasy having to read this as, it doesn’t define Nigeria politics by any means. Maybe the comparison don’t get to go but, your telling me Switzerland is any less corrupt than Nigerian?
Seriously!!! Are you drunk or what? Still partying from New Years Eve?
Funny you would say that but the point is;
We’ve got corrupt people and governance everywhere and Switzerland is no exception on having to be arms open to all laundered money across nations and you don’t find no one being so loud about it like Nigerians do to even the little problems.

Can’t have someone that haven’t lived in Nigeria have to define its politics in its wholesomeness as rotten or it’s society to be impoverished.
But we can have someone not living in Switzerland talking how Nigeria is better in corruption that Switzerland, see the how easy you're breaking your own rules?
Besides the whole comparison is simply stupid, I'm going to say it, stupid, you're comparing the banking industry in one country with the entire government in other, which makes no sense whatsoever, is a banker accepting to store money from a corrupt foreigner impacting on the life or well being of the citizens? No! It's government official taking bribes and canceling or allowing projects at random impacting the life, yeah, it is!
And it's not just me, it's your own citizen hat call it out, it's called perception index

7 Switzerland
vs
150 Nigeria
But yeah, keep saying that you're no worse that other countries and keep doing what you've done till now, this will obviously solve things!
Some really mistake patriotism with being ignorant on the real issues of your country, trying to picture yourself as better than reality and not taking criticism is not making you a patriot, a patriot is a realistic guy who criticize what's wrong with his country and acts to fix it, the cheap proudness I found here is noting like that.
There are others but, I wouldn’t want to dig into the dirts of other nations with my filthy hands still trying to solve mine.
That's exactly what you have done!
All your post was trying to find dirt on another country you've probably never set foot in just to defend yours!
We have problems and we would solve them!
Acknowledge them first!
