A former British Minister for Africa Baroness Lynda Chalker has criticised the Nigerian press for focusing on negative issues rather than propagating the many positive things that abound in the country.
It goes without a saying that the truth is always bitter.
Nigeria is indeed a very very rich country.We are
rich in human and natural resources though,but there is
a grinding poverty and a lack of all the basics of life taken for granted
in this 21st century here in Nigeria.
The Commonwealth of Nigeria has all it takes to be a
great nation,But the painful and a cruel paradox is that
Nigeria in its current state is nothing short of a failed
state.
Madam Baroness Lynda Chalker should come visit Nigeria
before her tele-criticism and chastisement of our Local press.
We Nigerians are irredeemably corrupt to govern ourselves.It were better
for us if Great Britain re-
colonize us.
