Nigeria in recent times has recorded unprecedented security challenges such as Boko Haram Terrorists (BHTs) attacks, militancy, armed robbery, banditry, kidnapping for ransom, Fulani-Herders farmers clashes, cultism among other social vices could all this current social vices be attributed to difficulty caused by having too little money or too few resources by the federal  government .
The current economic issues   in most areas of Nigeria, state capacity is low, service delivery is limited, and insecurity and violence are widespread. Wide infrastructure gaps constrain access to electricity and hinder the domestic economic integration that would allow the country to leverage its large market size.

My question now is what exactly sponsors the untold hardship in the life of an average Nigerian

I am a Nigerian, and with all honestly, I am proud of where I come from, for i can tell all with all sincerity that Nigeria is indeed blessed, blessed with different kinds of blessings, talk about natural resources, talk about minerals, talk about good and fatile Land for farming, talk about forest, talk about rivers and oceans for fishing and so on, also talk about the lack of natural disasters happening in Nigeria, all this tells that my country is blessed.

The only area where it most of the times looks like Nigeria is cursed is in the area of governance, for hardly do we ever get it right, bad governance has been the number issue of and in Nigeria, and it has also been the major cause of all that unfortunate happenings in Nigeria that you mentioned.
If only Nigeria can get it right in the area of governance, which is, in choosing our leaders, from the president down to even the local government chairman, if we can for once in Nigeria history, vote the right people in, I believe bad stories being written about Nigeria in terms of economy, security, health care and other aspects; will completely change for the better.

But the question is, how do we know the right people to vote in, even when we try, the bad ones end up buying the sit with their money, something the good ones don't want to do.
