Is this the Nigeria of your dream?

Let awo give you the answer.
“Nigeria is not a nation. It is a mere geographical expression. There are no ‘Nigerians’ in the same sense as there are ‘English,’ ‘Welsh,’ or ‘French,’ The word ‘Nigeria’ is a mere distinctive appellation to distinguish those who live within the boundaries of Nigeria and those who do not” - Chief Obafemi Awolowo, 1947.



There was no country.there are no dreams just a freaking nightmare no matter the number of times I fall asleep.

@bloggernaija: the ruling elite with their piggy snouts in the trough would beg to differ!

Bloggernaija do you mean you have no picture of the Nigeria you want to live in.

I can picture man travelling reaching alpha centauri(The nearest star ,4 light years away) which will take 150,000 earth years before picturing any scenario under which you can dream of a great nigeria.
Nigeria needs a radical fundermebtal change before even talking about a big transformation .
The big problems which people are hardly talking about.


1Rapid deforestation and desertification
2rapid population growth which the ecosystem cannot cope with
3the elimination of foreign ideologies/extremism that are incompactible with our value
4 holding of past military dictators accountable for their crimes
5 recreating a criminal justice system
6reorganising the police force
7 functional institution
8 demilitarising the country .
9 the decentralisation of government

the problems will keep accumulating.nothing is being done to arrest the continuos descent..a serious damage has already been done to the physche of the nation.while you cannot blame GEJ for most of the problems,he is adding his .
