The Nigeria of my Dream

The Nigeria of my dream is an African country in which the political leaders are not egocentric, and do not engage in misappropriation and embezzlement of public funds to their own exploitative advantage and satisfaction of their selfish interests, but rather channel funds to appropriate sectors for the development of the country and the subsequent amelioration of the sufferings undergone by the citizens, through prompt payment of workers' salaries and the institution of relevant policies and decisions that will enhance businesses.

A country where there will be fulfillment of promises, and not the usual lies and propaganda used to win elections. A country where the police and other security agencies will truly be our friend and strife to protect us rather than subjecting us to inhuman and unlawful treatments which dampens our trust in their existence and ability to protect.

I dream of a Nigeria where the judiciary will be totally free from undue manipulations from other organs of government, and rather strife to protect the common man, as it is often referred to as 'The Last Hope of the Common man'. A country where both the rich and the poor can be granted fair justice and treated equally within the tenets of the Rule of Law.

I dream of a Nigeria where we can freely thrive in the pursuit of our daily goals and be sure that there won't be any form of discrimination on the grounds of ethnicity, religion, wealth or status. A country where both the rich and the poor can thrive favorably, respecting their individual differences without the unfair suppression of one over the other.

I dream of a Nigeria where we can thrive in the spirit of national consciousness, and eschewing all forms of ethnocentrism and ethnic chauvinism. A country where we will be united in love that is devoid of wars and clashes that can give rise to the unfortunate shedding of innocent blood. A country where mutual understanding exists between farmers and herdsmen in the pursuit of their life activities.

I dream of a Nigeria that will be premised on equal sharing of resources, with the absence of marginalisation or negletion of any part of the country. A country where the constituent regions will be constitutionally granted the freedom to control the resources in their area for the development of their people. A country where there will be total absence of agitations which often times metamorphose into militancy, terrorism, kidnapping, ritual killings, among others.

I dream of a country where the political system will be totally free from unscrupulous elements whose activities are not in the best interest of our beloved Nigeria. A country where adequate opportunities can be provided to curb the heightened youth unemployment and other unfortunate vices associated with it.

I dream of a Nigeria where democracy can truly be upheld, and granting the people the opportunity to take their destinies in their own hands by electing credible leaders that will reflect their collective interests and goals. A country where elections can be free and fair without any form of manipulations.

I dream of a country where the relevant sectors like education, health, power and economy can be resuscitated to compete with that of the rest of the World. A country where qualitative education and health facilities can be duly accessed in the midst of constant power supply and a favourable economy, giving room for the absence of migrating to other countries in the search of better options.

I dream of a Nigeria we can truly call our own, and however stand out to reclaim our status as the 'Giant of Africa', blessed with abundant resources and talents that have been felt by the rest of the World.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!
Long live the most populous black nation in the world.
Long live Africa, the second largest continent in the World.
