State Of The Nation Nigeria
Our beloved country Nigeria is blessed beyond measure. humans can only attach few values to her by analyzing her natural resources because it has some monetary benefits to the state of the nation at most times if not always. but actually our sovereignty goes far beyond that. it is this error of financial benefit that has blinded us for many years.
Have you ever sat down to analyze the diversity in region,tongues,lifestyle and lots more in Nigeria? ask a question of what is the destiny or purpose of this diversity of a thing in Nigeria? once you leave Enugu state and get to Benue state, there is a lot of difference in almost all dimensions like tribe,lifestyle and the same goes for between Benue and cross-river state with many others.
There are benefits attached to these diversities embedded within us(Nigeria). as a right-thinking average Nigerian take out some time to reflect on the nation. it will help you to love her and from there have a heart of patriotism of offering something valuable to her and not you thinking of what the Nation has to offer to you. the nation has offered her best on a natural platform(i.e natural resources) and can't offer more than that. the issue to be considered is, "how well have Nigerians managed what she(Nigeria) has offered? the little knowledge and skills you have, how well have you put them to work to at least help your family?
The state of the nation starts at the family level. don't expect the nation at large to be great when the families are in a serious mess. living lawlessly without any standard of modesty,the youths living a life of immoral practices of all kind just to be satisfied of one thing or the other. all these errors boils down on the family. is your best at your family level active or inactive? the influence of the family affects the nation either negatively or positively.
On the Platform of basic tribes in the nation, the igbos,hausas and yourubas seems not to co-exist without some historical grudges which seems to be heritable as there are stories from the past that serves as an engine that facilitates the rising of rage at certain occasions. how can Nigeria be great when the inhabitants has barricaded and war zoned boundaries in their thoughts.words and actions towards each other?
Despite all these errors, nature has always found a way to save us severally from civil wars like that of the Biafra in 1967 and several others in different regions. all these boils down to the fact that regionalism and tribalism can't actually take us anywhere meaningful as a nation. there is a secret power embedded in our diversity but some enemies both home and abroad wouldn't let us be. to a point the little peace we have is being eaten up little by little by our hatred for each other. Wake Up! for no war or strive lasts forever. everything that has a beginning surely has an end so why not end all these errors(regionalism and tribalism) for the sake of the nation.
On this day why not start to dream of great things you could do for our dear nation Nigeria and not accusing and cursing her in the name that she(Nigeria) hasn't offered her best. don't forget that it is you and me that is this Nigeria we're talking about. what you'll offer mat become a national help to a particular region. you're blessed from birth with something unique for your nation. why not dream big and grow to offer your quota to Nigeria.
