Nigeria my country

in #nigeria6 years ago

How do we get to this point as a country my fellow citizen?
What is exactly the problem of this country? What is wrong with Nigeria as a nation? Where do we go from here? What can be done to bring a lasting solution to the problems we are facing?
We live in a country where it seems all hope is lost completely and there is nothing anyone can do to salvage the situation on ground. A country where everybody has turn to opportunist which in the real sense it is a matter of getting rich at all cost regardless of who get hurt in the process, a country where the ones with little conscience has wasted all there savings in running out of the country but kept getting a refusal at the embassy because the citizen of the country is not seen as smart but dubious in all dealings, a country where siblings no longer trust each other because of the get rich rich by all means slogan, a country where nothing seems to be working, a country where lawlessness is the order of the day, a country that is divided by the quest for power and the strength of the nation (youth) the was suppose to build the nation are the weapon of mass destruction. How do we get to to the point where there is no job security for the few that has it and no new jobs are not created, a point where co-existing is really hard because you are sure of your next meal.
It seems if religion is taken out of this country, it will have been a war zone (like it is not before), because I feel religion is still playing a little part in why few people still have morals, some with a little conscience, some, a little balance here and there.
We live in a country where the foreigner will come and oppress us because nobody cares, a country where employers will prefer a technical graduate of Chinese national to a masters holder of Nigeria because they feel the citizen is not well equipped to handle drawings not to talk of field work in a construction company forgetting how decay our educational system is at the moment because schools are not equipped with necessary facilities to aid teaching and even the lecturers are not paid in respect to the hardwork and this will always bring a negative attitude to work. A country where a 35years old man is scared of marriage because he cannot afford to pay your bills, a country where we recycle our old cargo politician and still hail them because of stipend they dish out during election period in order to steal more of our future.
Is Nigeria wired to be like this or we are afraid to make conscious decision as youth (strength of the nation) in one voice regardless of tribe, race, cultural background and religion to demand accountability from this recycle and refurbished leaders who keeps stealing our future?
We moved from power to the people to change and here we are with next level and a working Nigeria when we know that the same set of people who brought this mess upon us are still the same people repackaged.
This is the time for us as individuals and collectively to desire a better Nigeria. A Nigeria where we can have basic things of life, a country where the government use all means protect the life of its citizens. A Nigeria where we will not be afraid to live in, a Nigeria where we will not be scared of losing our capital if we invest, a Nigeria where graduates can be sure of something to do after school, a Nigeria where workers are paid in relative to their effort, a Nigeria we all can call home.
We deserve better
We should desire better
Nigeria can be better

God bless us
God bless Nigeria
