Nigeria is a delightful country creeping into the chasm of time, or scratching to a condition of oppressed world? Can Nigeria truly be reclaimed? These are boundless inquiries asking for unending answers. Nigeria is as of now being tormented with such a variety of bland sins and disagreements. The young people are being utilized as an impetus to encourage its breaking down. The issues of Nigeria are interlaced: man-made and profound.
While the pen-pushers in our middle attempt to lynch defilement and the degenerate dispositions of our government officials, the plebeians are occupied at the scarcest incitement lynching and harming themselves and the innocents with impudence and obliviousness.
Destitution of psyche has no assurance for one's level of instruction. Detestable deeds to each other are a social standard in a Hobbesian state. The lynching of a little child or a minor for being what I call a 'fortuitous adolescent' in the Hobbesian condition of Nigeria is the most recent revolting news radiating from the darling nation. It is yet another expansion to the nation's plenty of sins. Where is the brain of man? A shocking thing to squander! Who could have carried out that egregious wrongdoing to a minor? A tragic tyke in an appalling nation; and for what legitimate reason would he say he was executed? It's frightfully sickening!
The Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, another demise trap has quite recently expended some prospering lives; avoidable mischances, a sickening trademark on our starving streets! From Lagos to Abakaliki, from Oyo to Ogbomoso; from Ibadan to Ife, Kuje to Abuja, it's a similar story from the book of death on the Nigerian streets. Nigerians ought to lock in, the street ahead might be unpleasant if the nation keeps on threading this way with the unconcerned state of mind of the general population.
By and large, billions of dollars, naira and different monetary standards are being uncovered and recuperated from the attackers of a hapless country; with an unending anguish of retreat and trust amidst sadness. Has anybody been conveyed to equity to deflect others? Your answer is in the same class as mine. Scrutinize the strange pay rates of our "Nasstymen" in Abuja. What do they do to legitimize their spectacular income? An accumulation of degenerate and noisemakers making laws for an assaulted and unserious country.
I am thoughtful with President Buhari as a solitary contender in an organization with the classification of degenerate 'men of yesterday'.
What really, are the issues with Nigeria? In his brief preachments from his material: "The Trouble with Nigeria", my guide, Late Professor Chinua Achebe recognizes our regular issues in this book and the book proffers arrangements, yet every one of the cautions of Chinua Achebe the 'inner voice of the country' have sunk to hard of hearing ears. Some of Nigerian natives and their pioneers have cooperative connections.
Those at their kindness are the devastated and the powerless individuals in the general public. Who will spare the nation from this unsafe street? A grinding question!
Nigerians have inclination for other individuals' undertakings more than their own particular issues. The simply closed general race in the United States that stunningly created Donald Trump, has given us more clearer photo of the outlook of our kin in Nigeria. We have dependably cried more than the deprived in any terrible circumstance and condition.
President Obama of the United States, whose climb to office Nigerians celebrated with ceremony and pomp has now turned into their unrepentant adversary. His failure to pay official visit to Nigeria has now turned into the nation's another problem. Obama may have legitimate explanations behind not going by Nigeria, the reasons that are best known to Washington. I am certain understudies of global legislative issues and discretion will investigate into that reasons and concoct an obstinate answers or surmisings sooner rather than later.
Nigerian government officials have been only dissatisfactions to Africa and to their natives. I ask to request Nigeria to from now on be labeled as 'a conceivably goliath nation of Africa' not "a monster of Africa" as being vaingloriously touted in a few quarters. A-goliath in vain nation? We have all it takes to be as prosperous as the United States however our aggregate patrimony has been transparently assaulted and sold as of late. Defilement has been the worst thing about the nation's advance. I cried throughout the day few days back when I saw a devastated tyke lynched in a tragic nation. Unfortunately, Jesus Christ (Peace Be Upon Him-PBUH) would have crossed out his consecrated visits to Nigeria a few times on the off chance that he had such agendas. Actually, Jesus Christ's second coming is required to rapturally expend every one of these demons in Nigeria so as to convey rational soundness to a wounded nation.
A few people are not happy with our honest patriotism for a dear nation, and for championing a populist society; a place where everybody has liberated open door in its ward and enormity. Words utilized and all around created as a part of developing a message are rockets and bombs to the individuals who cherish abhor yet hate respectability and great things. Since words are mightier than slugs, they obliterate or reshape the still, small voice and cognizance of the power and the offspring of demons. We're on a very basic level unashamed in tossing words or standing up wherever or at whatever point the need emerges for successors.
Ijoba orun ku si dede. Omo Nigeria e yi pada kuro ninu ese, itanje ati pansaga, ki oore ofe ati irorun le wole towa pada wa!!!(the moment of retribution is impending, Nigerians ought to apologize and halt from misdirections for flourishing to come back to Nigeria). Defilement and underdevelopment are interwoven. No country can prevail under the tutelage of degenerate individuals. Nigerians are experts at flawlessness of the craft of defilement. It has turned into a standard. There is the hand of Esau in Nigerian platform of administration and political organization.
Verifiably, when the self-portrayals and the historical backdrop of Obama's sterling records however tumultuous organization are composed, his purposes behind not going to Nigeria will be uncovered, wrangled about and documented. We never can state never, Washington may change its brain for him to authoritatively visit the nation before his organization lapses in January one year from now. The primary concern is that, official visit or no official visit,
Nigeria ought to re-sort out her home first before expecting ethical organization from another nation. Much the same as the United States, Nigeria has the inborn capacities to lead the world on the off chance that we unleash our creative ability. At present, we are cased in self-dream and neocolonialism. We can even now turn our memorial park or midnight to the beginning of another period.
