Topic: Most Nigeria leaders value thugs than a graduate (Read 125 times)

OP all these things you talk nah true and I no go say nah most of the politicians or leaders wey like to use thugs, I go say nah all of them becos you no go tell me say you don see where politicians use graduate dem to take do their dirty work, e never happen and e no fit happen. These guys them sabi say these thugs go always do am the way them want am and them pay them off. Politics na game wey only need the stained hands and I no sure say if no be thugs them fit use any other set of human being.

I totally agree with you my friend, thuggery has turn to lucrative business for so long in Nigeria that even pay more than been a civil servant because recently after this past election the governor went ahead to offer more special advisers to most thugs that participated in the just concluded elections paying them between 90k to 100k every month for doing nothing while civil servants are there been under pay, you are even talking about graduate, let me tell you government don't care about graduates after their youth service they never talk about them again, they only recognise them if they are interested to be their thug, that why thug are increasing everyday and the worse part is that dey are always been protected by the government after doing something wrong.

Try make you die this idea of politicians in Nigeria having value for criminals and thugs over the graduates. That's a popular believe which doesn't really mean the truth because thugs are used for certain purposes which are majorly to cause riots during campaign periods or better still carry out criminal assignments which is often known as 'dirty jobs' for politicians.

Whereas graduates are those who run the offices of these politicians. Graduates are those that forma majority of their cabinets and decide the helm of affairs of the community, state or country. The thugs don't have these privileges rather than just being contracted for illegal dealings. Why they seem to be lucrative is because they make their money through those illegal contracts. I will like to mention at this point that anyone who will contract your life for his personal benefits does not love you or have your interest at heart, whatsoever.

our politicians don't know anyhow to play the game of politics,  I disagree with you mate. Impoverished the people just to win elections or to be controlling them every four years is not smartness but evil. During elections they will buy guns for thug,when they win dem declare them wanted without giving then good job. That's what you call smartness?

Politicians are some of the smart people we have in the country and they understand the mind game and how they can get to play their cards with people to achieve their aims the only problem with Nigerian politicians is that they lack discipline and respect to the rule of law and many of them are neither patriotic nor have the interest of the state at heart. Nigeria is one country that's endowed with natural resources, that which the whole world is aware of, however, Nigeria is also endowed with Human capital. Following the population the country bears and the percentage of young people among them. All political leaders do is to identify the audience and dissect them based on their modes and behaviors, then, afterwards use those distinctively identified population for their political and governance matters.

Na just wetin dey my mind be this, those thugs them no get option rather na money them dey find and our politicians just too wicked and smart because them no fit conduct free and fair election without fear of losing an election so the only option wey them get na to steal ballot box and cause fight everywhere, if na graduate although them dey use graduate especially for speech during election time but the problem is who will speak when the competition tough so they’ll have to look for the best, concerning thugs everybody know say that work na 50/50 so people dey fear to play dirty games just for election when after everything no change and better result.

Politicians for Nigeria, de use graduates for dem office works unto say na educated people dem need to run di work for there. But during election time na thugs dem de take run things for di streets to make sure say dem win by all means, whether na to disrupt voting for areas wey dem no popular or to snatch ballot boxes for where dem de get information say na opposition de win. E no go de easy to combat di menace of political thuggery for our country unto say na politicians and influential people for our country de sponsor dem activities.

 Poverty and illiteracy be di main reason why many youths de risk dem lives to de carry out dis criminal activities for politicians, because many of dem de lose dem lives in the process of disrupting peaceful elections. Our youths need enlightenment to understand say dem need education and skills acquisitions to take get work and live normal lives instead of wasting dem lives for politicians wey no care about dem safety.

Our politicians just Dey claim smartness, I no go lie you, our politicians no value any tugs more than graduate, but them Dey use those tugs during election and other times, so they are always creating them and keeping them till when dem go use them, and as plenty people Mumu for dis country, dem go Dey follow them also, if election time reach, politicians go pack their own children commot for Naija, or pack them go put for VIP locations for Abuja and Lagos, so that the poor tugs go Dey cause problem and killing themselves. You go hardly see politicians pikin during Election Day say dem go vote, Dey no Dey commot because they don’t want anything to happen to them.

If hudlums and criminals are given protection, then they won’t be sending them to cause problems and killing themselves when election is close. The protection wey you think say dem Dey give them, Dey just Dey keep them till when dem go use them go reach, and in d process of performing their task, if dem die nothing concern them.

there is a big difference between having value for someone and using the person after which you dump and forget the person as though they never existed. The politician already knows that a responsible graduate wouldn't want to risk his life just to carry out the bad act our leaders use this hudlumbs to perpetrate. Have you observed the kind of lifestyle these guys live after they've been used? Most of them can't even afford a self contained apartment and can't even sleep comfortably in there one room because of the extent to which they've soiled thier hands.

If you look at it, it's not even about the educational qualification of the person that's being used, it's about the mentality of the individuals to know that these politicians are just after there personal interest and that when the need arise, they can decide to do away with them without feeling any sense of remorse.

Just last week, it was on the news that an emeritus student union president that graduated not too long was killed because he joined in a political movements that led to violence and an exchange of shooting. Today, he's gone and gone for good and the politician are still alive to carry out all thier devilish enterprise. Do you want to call that that having value for your fellow? Or is that one not a graduate and a civilized fellow? Our politicians aren't worth fighting for and I just pity those who don't know what to do with thier lives and decide to hand it over to the politicians to use it whichever way they like.

That's not true, no leaders value thugs mire than a sound graduate. Its just the system we found ourselves many thugs has gone to 6 fits because of their involvement in illegality. There's no incentive in thuggery,  same leader they used them to achieve political office will still use the government agencies to arrest them. The main issues is that ,the Nigeria youths are like the lecturers, that help rig bad leaders into office only for the bad leaders to seize their salary and pensions and they keep repeating it after 4years. Our youths waste their lives after four years and even of on the street after helping bad leaders into office.

One of the reason why criminality and thuggery are in consistent increase in Nigeria is because most of our leaders and politicians used them to illegally make their way to power making the activities of criminality and thuggery lucrative and interesting career with numerous  incentives which they can not afford when it comes to poverty alleviation program for the unemploy graduates and less privileges.
In most cases, hudlums and criminals are given ultmium protection and preference than the innocent heardworking graduates that have the interest of the country at heart making them look like celebrities in their different locality because of the level of commitment and rapport to have with those in official authorities.
