RE: ANNOUNCEMENT: The Nigerian Millionaire Prince is Dead – Long live the Nigerian Contest. LITTLE THINGS MEANS ALOT. I>PLAY.
I don't know too much about Nigeria tbh. The only Nigerians I 'know' are on Steemit. What's happening that's bothering you there?
Hmm
Snakes and monkeys are 'sallowing'monies (the kind of shameless lies we hear). Government says they've dealt with Boko Haram only for them to strike again, kidnapping more girls
Epileptic power supply, everyone practically has to provide their own security, power and water.
Civil workers haven't been paid salaries for months and internet fraud is rising each day (so much that it's becoming a norm)
Lemme stop at that.
I don't want to paint my country black
OMG the schoolgirl kidnappings. I heard about that! Jesus. Islam has a lot to answer for. Nasty stuff. Sorry you're having to deal with that. How scary and oppressive for people to live through this. Wow.
Sorry... this is mindblowing. I can't even imagine having to provide your own security, power and water. Wow.
Sorry, all I can say is 'wow'. Totally inadequate response, I know, but...
What can we do to help?
Lol. My friends need to see this. We're thinking of how to leave this country and you want to help? Wow! You have a kind heart Anj
I think this country has to sink first. There are so many lies we tell ourselves, so many false bonds that hold us together. Most people play lip service to nation building. The good guys with brains and the vision don't stand a chance. Because some other people are benefiting from the rot.
I've got great hopes for Nigeria. I just think she needs to see herself for what she truly is. Only then can true and long-lasting change occur. Until then, life continues as usual (and my friends and I keep thinking of how to leave this country)
That's awful, to be at such a place where you consider leaving your country. Sure, I'll help however I can but I'm pretty sure I can only marry one of you to get on a visa here hahaha.
Yes, when countries are in chaos, the bad guys find a way to profit from the mess.
Have youz come up with any good solutions? Ideas that will help the most people? If all the good guys leave, it just gives the bad guys more scope to play what's left over.
Good solutions?
Not yet
Not even thinking of any yet
Maybe you should run a contest. Offer a prize of ... say ... 5SBDS. The title could be:
HOW TO FIX NIGERIA CHALLENGE!
Ok, so maybe people will think it's not much of a payout for fixing an entire nation, but think of the statues, streets and buildings named after them in their honour. Who knows? Maybe there'll be a good idea in there that people can start supporting.
Aye
You got me thinking there about helping my country (and that's a feat. I avoid the messiah status like a plague)
And definitely not 5 SBD. I think 50 for a start. Something like a collaborative contest where teams pitch their ideas and implement them. Say those whose plans get approved get about 5 SBD each and then 20 at the end if they win.
I can't start it now though. But I'll let my guys know. It's something I'll like to do
Thanks for the prompt Anj
Cool. Sounds like a plan :D
There are so many angles that need to be addressed though. You've got Islam and the schoolgirls... a huge shift in consciousness is needed to release these religious nutjobs from their warped thinking. Who knows how that's gonna happen. Then you've got the corruption; another toughy. I don't know how effective the 'charity' efforts are. From my position, they seem to plough in with a shit load of positivity, get people excited, then dump them when things don't move fast enough, leaving a disillusioned public behind, ever more desperate to get by. I dunno.
I hope it goes well.
cheers
Scratchn my head on this one ... LOL!
I would refer to DM otherwise you might try to go SAVAGE on me ... then I'd have to go SAVAGE and then we'd just be SAVAGn each other ... no bueno. :p
Lol... don't worry, I'm not marrying anyone for visas hahaha. Think I'm done with the whole marriage thing. I'm not very good at it.
i hear ya GF
