The whole civilised world is laughing at us (Nigerians)

If anybody thinks we are practicing what are meant by POLITICS and DEMOCRACY in Nigeria, such people need their heads examined
.
Politics (from Greek: πολιτικός politikos, meaning "of, for, or relating to citizens") is the practice and theory of influencing other people on a civic or individual level. More narrowly, it refers to achieving and exercising positions of governance — organized control over a human community, particularly a state.A political system is a framework which defines acceptable political methods within a given society. (For more, see Wikipedia)
And of course, we know what the definition of Democracy is; but is that what obtains in Nigeria? Not even 1% of its requirements.
"We are never deceived; we deceive ourselves", said Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
When we are finished deceiving ourselves, let me know. (I might be dead by then, anyway)
