Nigeria needs a strong party and government that model after fascist governments those of nazi germany and fascist italy and fascist spain,.
What in this world is this Dude talking about? If it weren't or The civil Rights act of 1965 Africans would not have the opportunity to study and work in the US!!
The answer is YES!!
PHRANKLEEN (NIGERIA NEEDS SOCIAL SERVICES THAT WILL EMBRACED THE KEYWORKERS LIKE POLICE, ARMY, TEACHERS, PUBLIC SERVANTS FIRST , THEN AFTER 10-YEARS EXTEND IT TO EXTERNAL PUBLIC CITIZENS) REASON FOR BRIBE IS THAT INCOME OF PEOPLE OUTSIDE PUBLIC SERVANT IS 200% MORE THAN "U" WORKING 9-6PM. THE DIFFERENCE IS IN SPENDING AND FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT . THOSE NOT CIVIL SERVANTS CAN EARN IN A DAY WHAT 9-5PM WORKER WILL EARN IN A YEAR. AND THEY DONT PAY TAX ON THEIR DAILY EARNING WHILE 9-5PM WORKERS GET THEIR INCOME NET AFTER TAX.
PHRANKLEEN (TO BE ON THE SAME PAGE , YOU NEED WRITTEN CONSTITUTION AND EVERYBODY MUST READ AND SIGNED INTO IT, ANYBODY THAT VIOLET IT MUST MADE TO RESIGN.
Leaders are a true reflection of the society they live in, they don’t fall from the sky they’re products of the society they live in.
That's the whole African continent.
Citizens are rather a reflection of the leaders.. We were a reflection of Idiagbon when he was in power.
..We all remember the good he tried to do and the same Buhari his 2nd? If the leaders are less corrupt, it will filter down especially when there is accountability and sanctions put in place. Remember poverty is rife in the land and that one is a factor that helps neither the lead nor the leader but the latter can change things when it wants to. In fact the govt PERPERTRATES and PERPERTUATES POVERTY as you hinted. Ok, on this palliative issue, were there any sanctions put in place to ensure they get to the citizens? So a dishonest
government makes for an enabling environment for dishonesty and pure greed. Yes the ripple effect comes from the centre, the centre is the govt🤷🏽♀️ Mirrors reflect t the sun and not the other way round.
You need to bring The Afrikan Unite Force back! She's 🔥🔥🔥she brings the truth! I love her!
It's stupidity trying fix Nigeria it has no foundation it was built on a fraudulent amalgamation that's why no history class in Nigerian schools.
The Afrikan Unite Force speaks the absolute truth. Especially where it concerns the traditions, weddings, naming, and spirituality. As an African Caribbean Diasporan, I look to continental Africans to some degree as an example of a starting point but at the same time, I know the continent has also been colonized and it’s suffering like we are out here in the west. I still will keep hope alive and try my best to have an African consciousness out here. It’s not always easy but I can’t give up and my eyes have been open more by doing so.
You right guys
A very eye opening presentation.
Afrika unite force sister has said it all
I am AA woman, and I really enjoyed your balanced energy, and your ever evolving intelligence. Although I have traveled abroad I have not had the pleasure of visiting Africa, but I have had a lot of interesting experiences with my African sisters and brothers here in the US, and I must say I have met a very SMALL percentage of GREAT and AWESOME representation from Africa. I have experienced from my sisters and brothers from Africa to be very rude, egotistical, misogynistic, arrogant, and the list goes on. I wanted to learn outside of literature who I really was when my ancestors walked the beautiful land of Africa, in most cases my African sisters and brothers didn't want to educate me just frowned on me. At one time all I wanted was to marry an African man to feel connected to my original self, and as time progressed I no longer desired that because they treated me and other AA women horribly. Needless to say I no longer desire my African brothers any longer.
I am in no way implying that AA's are without Flaw we are VERY FLAWED, but Africans have come to my home country that my Ancestors built and separate from us. They don't try to learn our culture here, and we do have an AA culture regardless of what you may have heard. They call us names one of which I hate is Akata, and many others. I love being an African descendant because I am a part of a large and beautiful culture although separated by circumstances. We must do better and treat each other better. "We are only as strong, as the weakest of us."
I love all the views and comments, but, the one that caught my attention the most is regarding mind set of our people. I think from elementary school, orientation needs to be in place to bury in the minds of these young people the importance and rewards of being honest, content with whatever they have and God fearing. We need to start breeding decent citizens.
poverty is Nigerian's biggest problem. everyone is on survivor mode which means they will take bribe
This is exactly what I have been saying!!!!!!! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 we need a mindset overhaul and some integrity!
Are you an hermaphrodite? Lol
In Nigeria, the judiciary is the 2nd most corrupt entity (NPF ranks 1st)…
If the mindset is not right and changed , nothing is going to change or work.
Were Nigerians responsible for selling Africans to the western world? Did they know what they were doing?
The answer is a big YES. The Nigerian leaders and people are the same true-through

Beautifully said-African unite force.
Peace to you Phrankleen, Your show was on fire today. The sister from African Unite Force is strong and please bring her back
I'd say it's the police not wanting to hide the disrespectful ways they treat you if their disagreements and misunderstandings are quite firm, they sometimes hide their revenge against your sadly ruined continent. This scary irritating brutal stuff is similar to what some in the USA are experiencing currently too.
Epstein was NOT HARSHLY PROSECUTED INITIALLY… He received “weekend jail time”, and got out of jail during the weekday so he could “work”….
Nigeria must stop comparing herself with America, average Nigerian polititians use these words …it took America 100yrs to get to were they are … that is very wrong of our politicians
The solutions required to change the cultural attitude in Nigeria starts with a psychological shift. This can be done through infomercials, platforms like yours, social media influencers, schools, etc. National pride based on humanity, integrity, and equal citizen rights must be injected into mainstream media content and films. Nollywood needs to do a better job of producing movies that align with these values instead of the slew of "juju" inspired movies and get rich/ritual sacrifice plots perpetrating the Nigerian film/TV landscape.
For an impactful resolution that affects the structural challenges at hand, one of my suggestions is that these protesters should organize under a youth leadership movement committee and come up with a list of social, political, and legal reforms and demand that the government sign them and the legislative body put them into law.
Short term: 1. For example, cut the lawmakers' salaries and bonuses by half and transfer the fund into education or youth job creation. The youth movement should have representatives who interact with government officials, and it should be televised to foster transparency.
2. The majority of the perks allocated to ex-governors and ex-presidents should be scrapped. The youth should clamor for an increase in the minimum wage as part of their conditions, and it must be signed into law. They should ask for a new job creation fund for the youth as part of the national budget. This fund must be managed by the youth movement leadership committee. They should also ask for police officers' salaries to be increased but to make bribery and extortion a criminal offense that would be prosecuted as a zero-tolerance policy. Citizens should be encouraged to send videos or photos of policemen who violate this law to the youth movement leadership website, which also functions as a watchdog or whistleblower portal.
3. A new corruption bill should be passed that prohibits any form of bribery at any government ministry and parastatal.
Pentecostal Churches who exceed N100M in annual revenue should be taxed as a corporation.
4. An Accountability and transparency bill that each state government must sign into law; otherwise, they should not receive any allocations or funding from the Federal Government. Part of that bill should state that certain percentages of their budget must go into verifiable healthcare, education, agriculture, and job creation for the youth. Such a bill should indicate that any contracts awarded based on cronyism or nepotism will be null and void. Such contracts should be vetted by the Youth Movement Leadership Committee.
5. All the soldiers who murdered our youth should be tried and convicted for murder, as well as those police officers culpable of killing innocent citizens.
6. Long term: They should also demand an amendment to the constitution. It does not go far enough to protect ordinary citizens' rights, which explains the extent to which impunity reigns in Nigeria. The military's role in a democracy, such as martial law, must be clearly outlined and not addressed in vague terms. The rule of law and its execution must treat every Nigerian as the same.
7. Nigerians should embrace a new reality: change begins from within. Families must start to re-educate their loved ones on what is really important: humanity and integrity. No society is perfect, but humility, respect for others, and not trying to act better than others would help us go a long way. Our current social hierarchy propped up by a colonial and elitist class system is divisive. We need to recognize this fact. Stop perceiving political posts or government appointments as hitting the jackpot. The citizens must stop asking or collecting handouts from their representatives. Instead, we should become active in all the 774 local councils across the country and demand that our representatives work for us or resign!
I have been saying this for yonks that the leaders have the same mindset as the average Nigerian.
The reason why the masses are corrupt is because the LEADERS, THOSE AT THE TOP have infected them with their corruption virus. If and only if the LEADERS did not exhibit corruption PUBLICLY the masses won't be. The masses steal, like the customs offiers, because the leaders make living difficult and DON'T pay the average joe the rightliving wage. The LEADERS don't pay the police wrll, hence the SARS issue. So it is the absolute faultof the LEADERS. Do not for 1 sec remove blame from the LEADERS.
Nigerians sound very similar to Chinese people after watching this video.
More like the other way round bro. The citizens will always reflect the behaviours of the people at the top.
“Who is going to change Nigeria? Is it the thieves that are stealing or the thieves that are waiting to get into power to continue the stealing”? This statement hits deeply and applies to so many of our African countries.
I completely disagree with Aries Blood. So it is lawyers that will suddenly be the ones to wrong all the rights of hundreds of years? It's not adding up at all. Nigeria's downfall, underdevelopment, failure, lack of infrastructure, social immobility and social problems mean that the west stay on "top". This is the foundation of capitalism. The exploitation of resources, people, and countries. The state Nigeria is in today is as a direct result of interaction with Europeans in the 19th century. Capitalism – the leading economic system in the WORLD was created and formed upon the exploitation of Nigeria and other African countries. It is embedded within the economies of every single country in the world. There are people in this world who have a lot to lose should a rebalance take place. This rebalance would be addressing ALL of the issues that are plaguing our country.
Whilst I appreciate the passion in what The African Unite Force said, to blame Nigerian's attitudes for the way the country is is very unfair. Nothing in this world happens by accident. The subjugation of Nigeria and Africa more widely is orchestrated. We are the foundation of capitalism, we are the reason that Bezos, Apple et al are where they are today. This is the work of hundreds of years. What are any lawyers going to do to overturn this? As long as capitalism is the modus operandi, we will continue to see the installation of puppet government leaders and we will still be saying the same things, asking for the same changes. The root of this issue pre-dates us all by hundreds of years. Before blaming our ancestors for "selling us out" read How Europe Underdeveloped Africa by Walter Rodney. Let's stop regurgitating the historical accounts of events written by the colonisers, and taking them as gospel.
26:18 This lady makes some very, very erudite points. Me go lissen again well well.
I was brought up to value hard work. when I was young and I went to school and brought back what was not mine my parents especially my mum will smack me and make follow me to school to take it back the next day because they don’t tolerate you taking anything that does not belong to you. They taught us to value working for your earning wether as an employee or a business owner. So it’s not every Nigerian and I know there are some people that celebrate wealth without knowing the source but I did not come from that type of people, I can beat my chest on that and I can say that for all my siblings as well. I bringing my child up exactly how I was brought up, with integrity and to value our name and not soil it.
