A Word To The Nigerian Youths by NiceMan4(m): 8:23am On Feb 22, 2015 |
Elections approaching, politicians making promises, claiming saints and discrediting their fellows; some in unconstructive manner, flawed with bias and sentiments. We as the populace are at the receiving end; the means to their end (either selfish or selfless). Some of us are just ignorant of their respective pedigrees, we can't distinguish the saints from the evil ones. The way we determine the best candidates are a function of their ethnic and religious proximity to ours. In the end, we think other people are tribalistic and fanatical. On the other hand, he who gives us money has our vote. We are more corrupt than the people we blame. As a courageous youth, do not expect much from the government; avoid the disappointment. Be creative, develop yourself, make and earn something for yourself; do it in an independent atmosphere. Hopefully, if every Nigerian shares the same vision as you do, then the change we seek will be realisable because the change you seek starts within you; it then diffuses from you expansionately. |

Well spoken, if the politicians have done 5% of their promises, Nigeria would've been paradise but they always use empty promises to deceive us yet we dont want to learn, We need change 1 Like |

OMAR BANGURA from Sierra Leone has this to tell Nigerians; "I don't think you guys know what you are playing with. You can call each other names and laugh about it now but when you end up inciting hate here as I read through your posts here and a real civil war starts in your country you will regret what you are doing now. Your religious and political leaders are trying to divide you between religious lines and you are helping them do that rather than standing up and say we are all Nigerians never mind our tribe, region or religion. That's the only stand that will save your blessed nation. The foreign powers pushing the government to take certain decisions will abandon you when you start killing one another and reject you from running to their countries so be careful. Our 11 year war in Sierra Leone was not even based on religious or tribal difference and see what we did to our country. The worst conflicts are those based on tribal and religious differences. See Central Africa, Bosnia and Rwanda. To have a better knowledge of this, please watch the documentary/movie called "Hotel Rwanda" or "Sometime in April". My heart bleeds when I read what you guys are saying because I know what this will lead to. You will be the losers all of you whether Christian, Muslim, igbo, yoruba or hausa. Stand as one and save your nation together because you have only one Nigeria that has the potential to lead Africa." PLEASE HELP SAVE NIGERIA AND SHARE THIS TO AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE. Be Nigerian, be patriotic! Kindly forward to your contacts until it gets to every Nigerian. God bless Nigeria! 1 Like |
