I Say To You Nigeria Can Never Get Better - Kizz Douglas

In response to Jaywon’s post about the Naira’s devaluation, one particularly negative comment read, “Nigeria can never get better.” This kind of fatalistic mindset reflects deep frustration, but it also feeds into a narrative of hopelessness that can paralyze progress.

While Nigeria faces significant economic and social challenges, blanket statements like this shut down any chance for optimism or action. No country is beyond improvement, and change often comes through collective effort, innovation, and resilience. Rather than adopting a defeatist attitude, focusing on solutions—whether through personal, community, or governmental efforts—can gradually pave the way for positive developments. Belief in progress is the first step toward making it a reality.
