Nigeria: Who Is To Blame?

By Ohaju Obed Ifeanyi

Nigeria, a country richly endowed with both human and natural resources, full of such potential that is unequalled in comparison to most others. Yet she is one of the most troubled of all the nations in the globe.

Every problem is said to have a root cause that drives it. Beyond the “who” is the “what”. What factors are at the root of this malady? Towards which direction shall this great giant steer the wheel to make a good turn in the right bearing?

“Will Nigeria ever get better?” is the troubling question in the heart of all and sundry. What more hope lies ahead for a country like this one?

‘NIGERIA: Who Is To Blame?’ is a byproduct of a personal reflection of a young and curious mind on the many woes and pangs reflective of the unworthy condition a country ladened with so much awesomeness has been entrapped in.

In this outstanding masterpiece, Ohaju Obed Ifeanyi tactfully bares his thoughts on the primary issues holding the great giant of Africa at ransom. By so doing, he intelligently beams the light on the road to the Nigeria of our dreams.

FOREWORD

A tale was once told of an eagle that grew up among the chicks. Full of potential and power, the said eagle found himself languishing. Made for the mountaintop, he scampered the earth below.

The tale of the eagle exemplifies a situation whereby one is oblivious of the great power within. It is a most critical condition. However, the case with Nigeria as a republic is more critical in that she is like the eagle who’s well aware of her powers and efficacies but wittingly continues to sink deeper into the grave. She keeps treading through downward paths.

The issue with Nigeria seems so complex yet very minute. Minute in the sense that she knows exactly what constitutes a major part of her predicament. Unfortunately, she remains undecided about confronting her issues with audacity. This lack of responsibility is what has magnified her problems making them appear insurmountable.

Her recovery and resuscitation will remain surreal unless she quits the blame game and plunges into the real matter that has eaten deep into the fabrics of the society. It is important to mention the fact that there’s nothing peculiar about her challenges. Nothing
