My dear belove country, Nigeria.
Go out of place to make sure others are happy with your confidence, attitude, courage, grace and above all your kindness. .

It's just disheartening that my country Nigeria is so blessed with over 180 million people based on various understanding. My country is naturally blessed with both natural and human resources but the amusing part is that the recent government has left us with a rethink on if the government is for the people or against the people. With no prejudice or sentiments the recent killings from the herdsmen has really made me helpless! would I say that it is not even enough the president has left the cries of the people rather has focused more on the forthcoming election obviously I know he will fail and if apparently he does fail would there be peace in the nation. Guess many are also thinking in same direction.

Indeed, the country has really faced disintegration, poverty, doubts of coexistence since after the civil war between 1967 to 1960. The question isn't about if Nigeria is a country the question is about if we actually know the difference in love and patience. Nigerians are indeed a patient people but the government has left us nothing than 'hates' and they tell us not to speak. I recently found out in my study that the recent government has termed our criticism to be hates word. I understand that you can't keep oppressing the people for eternity and expect them when they have freedom never to speak that only can happen only when they are cowards. Civilization has brought us all out of vacuum just like Albert Einstein said "Time is not absolute" guess I will lightly say "Blind memorization is no education".

They said evil will keep prevailing if only the good keep quiet when evil is done. I love my country not just only for myself but for my daughters which I know the society would want to fight because of gender inequality. I want a better Nigeria and I can't get that Nigeria is we keep quiet and say nothing about injustice. Injustice remain injustice if we keep looking at it with prejudice and bias.

I love Nigeria! I hope you treat all with equality. We will succeed.
