Who shall lead us? He who is opposite to the one who led before...

In Nigeria, a leader is chosen 
not by the people's vote, 
not by having the proper qualifications, 
not even by being the best at political bs. 
No, that is too much for my people. 
In Nigeria, leaders are decided by three things:
First, he who buys the most votes is the people's choice 
Next, he who has the most access to gun-carrying drug-crazed 
willing-to-do-anything-for-money area boys is chosen in the name of fear 
Last but definitely not the least, 
the part of the country that did not produce the last leader 
is thought to have a "right to rule now" 
This by default factors in a decision based on 
which religion ruled last and longest.
Not good governance
and definitely not what is good, fair and right

When my people will enough be enough?
