The depth of international disgrace Nigeria seems to be sinking into after President Buhari’s Lazy Nigerian Youth’s speech, reached an all-time low, after Harvard University gave some of its students an assignment in which Nigeria was examined as a case study of a failed African country.
See the question given to the Harvard students below:
“Nigeria, sub-saharan Africa’s largest economy, epitomizes both the promise and the problems the continent faces in the 21st century. The contry had failed to thrive for its first thirty years as an independent nation, despite having a developmental head start relative to countries like China and India, as well as hundreds of billions of dollars in oil revenue.. Now, after pathbreaking reforms followed by signs of retrenchment, Nigeria’s new President faced both vast opportunity and grave challenges. Would the country flourish or founder in this new era? We will analyze key reforms in Nigeria’s economy, significant political developments, and the choices facing the country’s fast-growing private sector.”
