Situation in Rivers state exemplifies that which exposes democracy-illiteracy of Nigerians. The politicians know that we are not really practising democracy but a civilian rulership system that uses dubious voting system which is so dubious that it undermines the involvement of the people it supposed to be created by, for and of. Not only that the politicians rarely make reference to the people, the people in large numbers are so illeterate about democracy to the extent that they treat the politicians like demigods. The politicians nor the educated people do not even feel the need for the people to be educated about democracy and why it should always be about the people - they might not know any better. The politicians take advantage of this while the educated class keep quiet about it. Our people are just so enslaved, disenfranchised and impoverished in their own country - a daylight robbery.
People worship and appreciate politicians who are impoverishing them. You see people hailing politicians whose children are in schools abroad and themselves in Nigeria are out of school.
Very well submitted ❤ this is how you people with integrity and sincerity.
