Politics / Only This Once: For My Dear Cointry by MAR2012: 3:20pm On Feb 12, 2023 |
I looked forward to a forum where patriots of my Country can together to rub minds on how to build a great Nation. I came to Nairaland with dreams, hope and faith. I was determined to contribute my quota towards building Nigeria. Unfortunately, I came and saw many a fellow Nigerian as 1. Ethnic Warlords 2. Tribalists 3. Religious bigots 4. 21st Century creatures with 12th Century mindsets. A typical Nigerian is ready to suffer hardship, defend a failed Government if those controlling power belong to their tribe or religion. I was shocked that people can vote incompetent people to power just because they are from their region or community. I got baffled how perverted, greedy and wicked men can easily buy votes from my fellow countrymen and many see nothing wrong with it. I see how our law enforcement agents are hailed for killing unarmed civilians simply because the victims are from another regions. I marvelled at how innocent people are killed in cold blood in the name of religion over "blasphemy": a non existent crime in our Constitution. Yet our law enforcement agents do nothing as if the laws of our land are nursery rhymes. I trembled at how victims of mass murder by terrorists land grabbers (in the name of herdsmen or whatever) are mocked because they belong a different region. Several times, i wanted to post something, but when i read what patriotic Nigerians post and how they are attacked by fellow Nigerians for speaking out, I chose to remain mute. However, today and only today, I decided to make a post. 2023 ELECTIONS For the Love of My Country, I appel to Nigerians. Among the three major contestants, Mr. Peter Obi appears the better option. Tinubu was great in the dark days of the military, led by social misfits like Buhari, Babangida and Abacha. However, today the man is old and not strong again. The only reason one will vote him to power is ethnicity, religion, party loyalty and personal gains. We dont need any of those now. Mr. Atiku during his days as Obasanjo's vice, mismanaged $16B meant for solving the power problem of Nigeria. Till date he has no explanation. And I wonder why such people are allowed to live free, walk free, talk free and even have the shameless audacity to ask us to vote them to power. The only reason such people will be voted are ethnicity, religion, party loyalty, and personal gains. Dear Nigerians, Our dear Nation is destroyed by actions and inactions of those we choose to lead us. This is my personal opinion and appeal, if you are a patriot, if you love Nigeria, let is vote for Mr. Peter Obi. Irrespective if tribe, ethnicity, religion, party or whatever. And if he fails, we vote him out! This is my first post here all these years on Nairaland, and it may likely be the last. Let me apologize in advance, I wont respond to any reactions over this. God bless all Patriots. God bless Nigeria. 1 Like 1 Share |
