One of our major problems in Nigeria is that our Biggest fools are in government - Link Oolodumare

One of our major problems in Nigeria is that our Biggest fools are in government. Professional and educated fools, of various species and sizes man our Civil Service.


So many avoidable mistakes they make. And even when it's pointed out to them, they will be foolishly forming bravado rather than accepting their lack of thought.


The recent religious studies alteration is one such vivid example of their foolishness. The policy was made by supposed highly educated Nigerian professionals.


Educated, yes. Professional, yes. Fools, most definitely. Because only a fool would have failed to see the train wreck such a change in policy was bound to cause in a highly religious country like Nigeria- Don't even need an education to foresee it.


We pay hard currency to send these idiots to London, Brussels, Berlin and Copenhagen to learn and gain knowledge. But no matter, their foolishness precludes them from knowing to apply local knowledge in importing what we paid them to learn.
