Abacha did not cause this much damage. From Obasanjo to Buhari, to Tinubu, western styled democracy has turned Nigeria into a vast crime scene. We must think about these things.
As the World Cup Begins Without Nigeria
As the World Cup begins today across three nations, I identify with our teeming football followers and urge them not to be despondent that Nigeria is not participating, despite the abundant talent in our land.
Our failure to participate on the global stage is not due to a deficit of talent; it is a direct consequence of a deficit in leadership, planning, and institutional support.
The task of building a better Nigeria rests primarily on the shoulders of the younger generation. Do not watch the World Cup with despair; rather, see it as a reminder of where Nigeria ought to be. We must move our country from being a nation of mere consumers of global entertainment to a nation of proud producers and competitors.
A new Nigeria is POssible. -PO
Watching this game just thinking about how the Nigerian federation failed their country and players.
Nigeria have better players than both of these teams combined yet couldn’t top a group involving this same South Africa side.
