When I wrote the first version of my Stupidity Series, Oba Akinjobi was fantasizing about various ways to teach Ibo people swimming lessons, Patience Jonathan was still giving YouTube admins killer ideas and as usual, the nation was swallowing huge lumps of political eba. Fast forward three months and what do you have now? Governors are crying blue murder about empty treasuries whose contents were used to politick them into power. The National Assembly has retained its beloved Grab-Da-Mace tournament. The Naira has forgotten how to use a parachute. The orphan Boko Haram has now been adopted (ISIS). The list is endless! But I have to say, I am a bit disappointed that our nation still remains stupid. Not stupid that we bought the idea that changing political parties would engineer a total revamp of the nation’s fortunes, no, not that. My biggest disappointment lies in the fact that Nigerians are yet to drop their ethnic and tribalistic stupidity.
