FUTURE OF NIGERIA LIES WITH THE YOUTHS

FUTURE OF NIGERIA LIES WITH THE YOUTHS

Africa has all resources needed to survive and even export to boost its economy. If you’re in doubt, make your research.

The bone of contention for this post is NIGERIA. I have always read and heard Nigeria to be the giant of Africa but it appears to be baseless.

We have always been told that it will be well with Nigeria but how far na? Same lines they fed our aged parents, grandparents etc yet nothing to show for it. Children are the leaders of tomorrow but ancestors are determined to remain in power with their lineage inclusive.

Nigeria is a youthful populated nation with power to make good things happen but the youths are nonchalant due to mental slavery.

Many of the youths are wallowing in nonchalant behaviours because of the little funds in their possessions. How far can you go with that?

Would you rather choose to “live or exist”? Many cannot freely travel home for the fear of kidnapping, police harassment and the likes. Even those back home live daily in fear. For how long can we run? A journey can never be like home even though we’re temporary residents on planet earth.

If you’re away from Nigeria, you have a role to play. If Nigeria gets better today, it will benefit everyone of us. For instance, put the currency exchange rate into consideration. The citizens are misled via broadcasting media but the real truths are hidden in writings. If you’re out of Nigeria and still do not see the darkness the citizens are kept, you need HELP.

And if you have seen the light, tell as many people as possible, the universe is advancing and it’s absurd for us to remain stagnant as a nation. We house countless place of worship, pray alot but be rest assured that God will not come down to get a PVC to elect good leaders. IT IS OUR DUTY.

2023 election is just by the door and you believe candidates (g.grandparents) with crooked records would make Nigeria great? I am unapologetically telling you to go think deeply, sleep and come back to make the right decision. You aren’t doing this for yourself alone, think about generations to come. Our fore-parents didn’t make good decisions and that’s because they were misinformed but the ball has rolled to us for smart decision(s). They younger (latter) ones ought to do better than the older ones (former) na!

We desire an active system where everyone is valued as our principal would always say “we want a Nigeria where the son of a nobody is somebody”.

Break out of tribalism, religious sentiments, and embrace competency. A competent man who is fully aware that he has no skeleton is in cabinets won’t go about buying loyalty, organising impostors, mandating you to vote him else you’ll see shege, making noise that he’s next after imposing a candidate who promised to take the country from top to bottom (can you see clearly now?)

Even if you’re promised cassava and corn, do you think they will be made available when the time comes? Why would you give power to a candidate who isn’t interested in statistics, economy (telling the citizens that only business moguls should be concerned about exchange rates), educational sector, zero value for residents in his state, making derogatory comments & humiliating people who do not support him (the list is endless).

Avoid sitting on the fence in 2023 decision making. Decisions you make based on tribe and religious will not give you a better future.

TAKE EVERY CANDIDATE WORDS SERIOUSLY DURING CAMPAIGN.

The POWER lies in the hands of the PEOPLE (citizens), don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. We desire a country where the leaders work for the people and not otherwise. Their camp is always in chaos whenever the people (citizens) are united (EndSars demonstration is a subtle reminder).

When NIGERIA get it RIGHT, the rest of Africa will take shape!

Nigeria has been sacrificed for decades, it is time to be OBIDIENT! Obedience is better than sacrifice.

Vote right! Vote your future!
