Topic: Is Nigeria a blessing to Africa? - page 3. (Read 493 times)
Nigeria might have been placed in that level in Africa but whether it has retained and merited that glory presently is a topic to be discussed because with the level of braindrain going on in different sectors of the Nigerian economy is so alarming and this is caused by falling economic system. If Nigeria is supplying electricity to neighbouring west African countries or not, it is not for free. Such is not without other symbiotic relationship occasioned by bilateral relations and agreement. Have you asked yourself why there are epileptic power supply in Nigeria while the neighbouring countries that Nigeria supply electricity have constant and stable power supply. For me, I just might think that Nigeria is living in past glory of being the giant of Africa.
Our economy is not good. Poverty is at high level. Our currency become best performing to worst performing recently. We are not developed the way we supposed to be developed. We remain being a developing nation when there are many developed nations in the world. Our population surpass our work force. We are still part of the third world natios. Inflation is high.
You have brought up a nice discussion praising Nigeria, although it is known that Nigeria has been recognised as the giant of Africa due to many considerations and many sectors that they are so strong in, like football, cultural influences, population, and many more.
Nigeria is said to be giant of Africa because of just a single reason which is because of our population and nothing more. In gross domestic product, we are fourth in Africa now as we dropped from first. 
Nigeria was granted independent in 1960 by Britain, ever since she has been playing a fatherly role in the African continent, some of the roles include laying a solid foundation for the establishment of ECOWAS with her continent sister Togo, she also played a lead role in peace keeping missions in Africa . Also to mention is the supply of electricity to neighbouring countries, to mention but a few with these one can conclude by saying Nigeria is truly a blessing to Africa.

So it is not that what you brought was not a good thread. but you keep it in the wrong place. When I went through your profile, all I saw was that you were just around the economy board, which made me think maybe, as a newbie, you were not patient enough to go and read and do research in order to know the best board to create a thread, but I will use this opportunity to encourage you as a newbie to go to beginners and help boards in order to know more about the form. And mind you, this thread is supposed to be in the Naija local board, not in the economy, so take note and ensure you do research.
