Responses- 1) Nigeria as we often refer to her before as the giant of Africa is a country of great prospect, while the author of this article argues that Nigeria strength lies in it people and not the institution herself. Despite being rich in natural resources and having a large population the country continues to face numerous challenges including corruption, poverty and insecurity. Do you really think the Nigeria strength lies with the people and not the country itself?
- 2) Nigerians have lost hope in the country's progression over the years and believes the country's leader have failed to harness the potential of its citizens and build strong institution, instead they focus on their personal gains leaving the country vulnerable. Against all odds Nigerians have continue to excel both home and abroad, locally and at the international level putting the country on in good light. How do you think Nigerians can task the government into having a change in mindset and a shift towards building a strong nation based on the strength of it people?
- 3) Many Nigerians have left (japa) the country in search for greener pasture while claiming the country is tough and some are saying the country may not get better soon despite the huge talents and resources that Nigeria has. Are you positive that Nigeria will overcome her challenges soon and return to her glory days of being the giant of Africa?
