How long shall we continue in this state of mourning with a government at the center in complete disconnect with realities on ground?
How long will the over 2 million IDPs remain in shanties and state of helplessness and ravaging hunger and deadly diseases with a government that is playing politics with their resettlement plan?
How long shall be governed by an administration that thrives in lies and propaganda instead of good governance and delivering democratic dividend to the people?
How long shall we continue to live in suspicion towards one another, doubt and fear because we have all been turned into estranged bedfellows in a country we all claim citizenship?
How long shall we continue to promote incompetence, sentiments, cluelessness, ineptitude, impunity, mismanagement, corruption in the place competence, knowledge, facts, egalitarian leadership for our overall good?
How shall we continue in this underdevelopment, unemployment, lack of basic amenities, such as roads, electricity, treated pipe borne water etc?
How long shall we continue to fight, castigate, blackmail, backstab, in our journey to recovery and stability?
Can we truly be a nation of one people in love, unity and trust even in the face of our diversity? A people of a common heritage and destiny with equal rights and privileges.
God save Nigeria!
