[1] Nigerians erroneously believe that the main cause of all their problems is corruption. Well, I can tell them now, that all our problems as a nation stem from the fact that we are not productive enough
[2] Our productivity is so low due to a combination of intellectual laziness, sheer incompetence, vanity, a preference for ostentation, an over-dependence on the government and a general lack of initiative among the populace
