Was I Really Dreaming? by Roserbert(m): 2:36pm On Jun 12, 2013
Got this from one of my friends on BB, feel touched and wish to share it.
Before going to bed, I had to eat something. I opened the fridge and yes, all the things in my fridge had turned to block; the light had been on for 8 years without going off. I finished eating and went to bed. Oh I have to reduce the speed of this fan, the voltage is so high.
I woke up very early in the morning to the sound of classical music. I casually strolled into the bathroom. Oh! the cold is too much this morning, I turned on the hot-water tap. While towelling myself dry, I turned on the radio and heard the presenter speaking of how Nigeria is now one of the most developed countries in the world and how the Nigerian president yesterday declared his asset and all he had to boast of was N20 million naira and a duplex in his village. I finished dressing up and took my time to eat. I had no reason to rush, afterall the road is always free and there are no potholes.
On the way, I saw a few policemen patrolling and I greeted them. I stopped to chat with them for a few minutes after which I drove off laughing.
In my workplace, I saw some people loitering in the waiting room and discovered they were here to be interviewed. I saw the son of the permanent secretary. I also saw a young man with tattered shoes and patched-up trouser; he graduated recently from one of the government universities, but everyone could testify to the fact that he's brilliant.
While going home that day, I saw the man with the tattered shoes smiling and I asked him why. "Sir, I've been given the job." "What! What of the Permanent secretary's son, didn't his father call beforehand? "No" the man said, "He didn't". That evening, I went out to play in the neighborhood, I saw Adamu and Obinna discussing the recent trend in the country, of how Mallam Danjuma is now the governor of Rivers state, Senator Abifarin Oluwafemi is now the governor in Borno state, Mr Chijioke Godffrey is now the governor of Oyo state.
Then I had a Mosquito bite on my nose, as I slapped my face. I woke up realized that I took large dose of cough syrup...Chai!!!

The Nigeria of my dream is greater than this. We can only make our dream a reality if we keep challenging the status quo.

Can we really challenge the status quo effectively when we are so divided, we protect our own even though we know he has performed woefully. Untill we have same goal which is Nigeria, am sorry we may not get to that dream land.
GOD WILL TAKE US THERE.

@seunfly, that's the point "We all must av one goal" even the bible makes it so clear, "Can two walk together except the agree (unity on purpose)?" but we live today in a Nigeria whr evry one goes into politics with their selfish ambition. Even those making the law placing themselves b4 d Masses. Righteousness exalts a nation, sin is a reproach to any people (Proverb 14:34)

thanks a million times for this post.
unfortunately, it is very very unlikely that the man from Borno will have the same vision of Nigeria with the from Anambra. It is very unlikely that the man from Lagos will have the same dream with the man from Zamfara.

The core north and core south are miles apart.
And some of us are of the opinion that rather than trying to ride a dead horse to battle, it is not cowardice to surrender.

Nigeria is not working!
