I have one simple suggestion- why not all the really, really smart people go and fix their local government? We may call it, "one local government at a time". I think such movement that emphasizes practical grassroots change will be formidable if there exists a common network that focuses like a laser on this proposition.

It is hard to disagree with this point of view. Basically, we've been attempting to build something on nothing! Hence, I think trying fix roads, electricity etc. is a losing proposition in Nigeria of today.

Of course, one recognize the need for stop gap measures while the social fabric is restored; but I truly believe that only a truly bold visionary leadership that can get Nigerians back to square one to determine the nature, shape and structure of the country they want, as well as a restoration of the social contract between the governed and the governors, will truly solve fundamental problems that bedevil us over a long run. Some call it national conference, others call it a dialogue. I however believe strongly that you cannot create a progressive nation without some sort of determination by its constituents on these fundamental questions.

Of course the alternative is a benevolent dictatorship, where I happen to be the dictator! God Bless Nigeria.

We need more flash mobs for vigilant political action that would actually get things done like yesterday.

Oh, hi T!! :-)
Your blog sure looks nice. When are you going to go WP (WordPres)?? It's improved by leaps and bounds over the past year and just won the Open CMS award as BEST CMS on the planet uprooting Joomla et al.

Peacies!

I have been travelling around Nigeria since last March. And from my encounters on the roadI would add these to the list:

1. Sobi Hill, Ilorin (Kwara State): it must be the only location in Nigeria where christian and islamic worshippers share the same worship space. No rancour;no bad belle. Everybody respects the other's religion.many months after I stumbled on it, the experience remains indelible

2. Kanta Museum, Birnin Kebbi (Kebbi State): The fishing festival may be the draw her but my most remarkable spot is the Centuries' old kanta museum and the adjoining Cemetry, where all previous kings of the kingdom are interred. I doubt if there is any place like that elsewhere in Nigeria.

More later....

That was really complete.
I woud also say that the Olumo Rock in Abeokuta is also a good feature that has not come up lately although in other countries, it would have been a BIG tourist attraction

Nothing, except may be Lagos is witnessing some green shoots in terms of being organized and perceived as a live-in city

Nice one..should be helpful if the small businesses in Nigeria actually get good internet access that is cheap and reliable. The new Glo undersea link should help by the way
