There have been concern on citizens who are complaining about bad government and how it has limited to them to become what they truly wanted to be in life. Must have heard of people saying they cant get jobs because the government dont provide jobs, they have less pay so they can even pay for vacation or staycation in a good resort. I have even come across someone who said, he would have been successful if not for the bad government in the country.

My question is, when did we realize the government was not limiting us? As a person we can write our own story, no matter the condition, I believe the opportunities are out there but we keep looking at every possible excuse and someone to shift blame on.

What do you think?
So in essence you are saying that the citizens are responsible for their own unemployment and insecurity in the country? I don't agree with you on this OP, the government are responsible for the setback of any educated citizen in the country, and insecurity in the country have also restricted them from going to some places that could help them grow. Yes, most graduates don't have job because the government has failed to provide jobs for them, and you think the government is not responsible for their setback? I have a friend that is a graduate for a few years now and up till today there is no job for him and even the shop he was managing has been vandalized by hoodlums and that's unemployment and insecurity tormenting him, and you still think he can write his own story and make it big?
As much as I don't seem to agree with @Agbamoni on his claim that the government isn't the one limiting  the citizens, I still have to point out here that the citizens themselves still have a role to play in their setbacks.

In a country where bribery and corruption is very common in the society, wealth and other benefits coming from the government will not be effectively distributed to those who really need them. Imagine when the government funds scholarships, grants, empowerment, health care and other things which should be given to the masses, yet the people in charge of distribution choose to either sell them or give it out to their families alone. How will things ever get better in such an environment? Funny enough, the government gets blamed for everything, even the corrupt citizens blame the government too.
