Bruce Malogo Calls for Better Living Conditions in Nigeria

Bruce Malogo argues that Nigerians are not poor but rather plundered, emphasizing that the country is endowed with abundant resources such as crude oil, gas, and arable land. He reflects on Nigeria's past, where it was a respected nation that supported liberation movements and had a significant international presence.

Currently, he describes the plight of Nigerians, including a first-class engineering graduate reduced to driving a "keke" due to a lack of job opportunities. Malogo highlights the dire state of healthcare, noting that 80% of Nigeria's 34,000 primary health centers are non-functional, leaving over 130 million people without access to basic care.

He also points out the electricity crisis, stating that after 66 years of independence and over $25 billion invested in power, the average Nigerian receives less than six hours of reliable electricity daily. This situation has led to a reliance on expensive generators, severely impacting small businesses.
