Icheoku says Chinua Achebe was probably wrong in identifying the trouble with Nigeria as lack of leadership. The real trouble with Nigeria seems to be that Nigerians are not a disciplined lot and without discipline nothing much can be accomplished. An undisciplined mind is a mind running riot which impacts every strata of the society as exemplified by these policemen, fighting over how to share bribe money which they strong-armed from cowering innocent Nigerians. Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the fearless one(ajanaku), rightly articulated it when he compared Nigeria with the infamous Ojuelegba roundabout in Lagos - confusion everywhere! Icheoku says, Etu Mopol!
