It is not only about the government or political system which is prevalent in a country, it is also about the mentality and culture of the people who lives in that country. What is a country without it's people? Nothing. The people of the country is the country itself.
It happens the same here in Venezuela and other countries of latin America, you know, basically we have the governments we deserve, because of our crippling ignorance and lack of education on politics.
What would happen, for example if all the people in Nigeria exchanged their country with the Japanese population? They will rise the country very quickly and make Nigeria an African power, because of the system of honor and the way of thinking they have about their country. They are willing to sacrifice for their country and the development of the country. Because of examples like Japan or Germany, I believe there is still much to learn from other cultures, which have proven to be more efficient than many of our administrations.

Nigeria has a lot of potential, it is well positioned in Africa, and the people of Nigeria is willing to push forward (hence their adoption for Bitcoin) but their own political culture are dragging them down.
