Yes we complain all the time but we still have to face the reality in the midst of the instability hence the reason for us to work three times as much as anyone in developed nations. That's what makes us united. We work smart and hard. Its the mentality of people who want to or migrate to developed nations, that these nations have the opportunities we sought after but we who have grown to love the culture and history don't sought after anything but to grow the economy brick by brick.

Truly, most of the most countries around the world were colonised, but colonisation is still going on in some Africa countries, especially Nigeria. The Colonial masters are doing all things to make sure that Nigeria remains under them as the y promote terrorism for them to to continue to steal and protect corrupt politicians who stole and keep the money in their country. One Ex-minister of petroleum stole over $ 2.5 billion and kept it in UK bank till today.
