Nigeria is a perculiar place to be. It is a place where everyone thinks that what he or she does is just and justice is difficult to attain in its best of form.
It is a place where justice and the rule of law suffer too much violence in the hands of unjust operators of the systems. It is a place where most of those who have unexplained wealth exhibit the most intolerable and abhorable misconduct to the prejudices of justice and fairplay.

Nigeria has great potential, no doubt if there is right leadership. Leaders with nationalistic interests are in short supply. Nigeria is a place where most of those who are in charge of institutions appear to permit evil thinking that they are doing their jobs.

In Nigeria, those who killed to earn a living plead to live even when they gruesomely murdered someone dear to the family.There are so many ritual killings in Nigeria today. Those who have unexplained wealth lord it over many people and in most cases engaged themselves in the perversion of justice, and they go scotfree.

There are many who have murdered many Nigerians without physically doing so. There are people who have responsibilities to ensure that Nigerians have good and motorable roads but have refused to do so, and nothing happens to them.

These people refused to do the roads.They misappropriated the money. You see many bad roads across Nigeria. Kidnappers target these bad places to strike and take their victims. Many victims of kidnappers have died in these processes. Nigeria is a place where nepotism is assuming almost official state policy. We want to be like Americans, but we are not prepared to do what the Americans do.

What about those who flood our hospitals with fake drugs or medicines. What about those who manufactured fake drugs or medicines. Nigerians are just enemies of themselves. Those in positions in most cases think they are more suprior in knowledge. Many see public offices as private properties. Many who have the privileges to lead think more of themselves than the larger interest of the society.

Many representatives are not representing the people.
The sharing of our commonwealth has been personalised, and the same has reached a very intolerable, amazing level to the irritation and annoyance of Nigerians. Injustice is permeating every strata of our society.

Endless thought?

The Real Culprit.

He lies and he steals. He is religious and he attends church services regularly. He is nice and he is humble. But that niceness and humility are just a facade to lie and steal.

When he was young he stole from his church. He removed other people tithes and offerings from inside their bags. He was caught but he was forgiven. After all, he was still young and he would change.

But he’s old now and he has not change. He has the type of assets that do not match his salary.

He still goes to the church he stole from as a youth. He is revered because, now, he pays a fat tithes. And his offerings to the Lord are among the best. He adhere strictly to the verse that told him to pray ceaselessly. But he ignored the part that says prayer, without following the law is an abomination to God. His violation of the law by lying and stealing is insignificant to him. His Lord and Savior had died for his sins. And he’s no longer under the law but under grace.

He turns around and blame PBAT for not growing and progressing the country. Someone should please remind him that “Righteousness exalts a Nation.”

But he has hope, he told me himself, that God will help us to grow and progress this country.

Populate a country, any country, with millions like him. And you are more likely than not to have a country called Nigeria.

We cannot get there from here.
