For a good 57 years out of almost 60 years after independence all the crooks and looters who have ruled Nigeria travels abroad to enjoy the dividend of good environment, beautifully planned city with central sewage system. When they come back to their country after they have loaded their boxes with all the expensive items they can get they virtually forget what the environment from where they just left looks like. May be our black leaders believed that our own people are destined to live in a permanently degraded environment. All our leaders go abroad to do is to eat and shop. 57 years ! ! ! ! ! no motor-able roads no fast transit transportation ,no central sewage system in major capital cities no portable water systems in our cities . We are the largest oil producer in Africa we can not pipe our gas like water to all homes instead we flair it. We can not even use this gas to generate our electricity to industrialize the country. The gas pipes are suppose to be underground almost 6ft below ours is 1 ft below because we are so fantastically corrupt we cut corners in everything we do so the pipe lines are exposed to vandals. We have open gutters and sewage all over the major cities. our own civilization and modernization is how many cars you can own ,how many houses you can build, how many mistresses you can sponsor abroad with your looted money. Since oil was discovered in 1958 the capital flight from Nigeria was over $400 billion. Up till today the looting is still on going. I can conclude that when god created Nigerians he forgot to give us a functional brain or may be evolution cheated us and did not allow our brain to evolve. Even our copied system of government, the so called democracy is practiced in a weird style compared to the country we are copying to the extent that we become a laughing stock in the community of nations. Our environmental policy never take off from the committee board room. Which way Nigeria ! ! ! !
