....the final highlight is the failure of individual responsibility. Too many Nigerians depend on government and politicians to make the difference that we seek in our lives. Government can play its part but the task of ensuring progress is collective. Unfortunately we live in a society where people do not care enough for and about themselves. We break laws with impunity. We take the laws into our hands. The average Nigerian does not want to respect traffic rules and regulations. He would rather not obtain a driver's licence even. He does not want to pay tax and he believes that he can bribe his way out of any situation. He is very religious but religion is for him just another social vehicle. We live in a society where people think that others owe them a living and that they do not have any obligations. There is so much recklessness that translates almost into a love of evil and disorder. This has been the biggest threat to Nigerian democracy since there can be no democracy without the people themselves.
