I watched a video of late tafawa balewa visit to America in 1961, Tafawa Balewa was the 1st Prime Minister in Nigeria. I watched this video (it's on YouTube by the way) and I think for the very first time in my life I was proud of my nation, the kind of honor they gave this man was overwhelming and to think at that time racism was still rampant...So why would they welcome a black Prime Minister in that manner? What was he doing right that our leaders are not doing now? One Nigeria pound used to be higher in value than a dollar, even when we changed to Naira. One Naira was still greater than one dollar, that was how awesome Nigeria economic was, all these things are not myths..prior to now whenever any one tells me about a naira used to be high in value than a dollar, i don't really pay attention to it but it's true. Then this bring me down to what happened to our economy?single minded leaders? Greedy Leaders? Corrupt leaders? Self centered leaders? So many questions in my head........
