On a Day Like May 29
What is democracy when humanity is lost?
What is democracy when Education suffers negligence?
What is democracy when workers cannot have their wages?
What is democracy when our roads and hospitals are death traps?
What is democracy when an average Nigerian family can hardly feed three times daily?
What is democracy when everything (Power, natural resources, etc) that should better the life of the people is on the govt's exclusive list?
What is democracy without devolution of power
What is democracy without autonomy to the local governments
What is democracy when the practise of true federalism is absent in a federating state like Nigeria
What is democracy when Restructuring is seen as alien
What is democracy when the police is under paid
What is democracy when Pensioners that should be senior citizens are treated like trash
What is democracy when ethnicity and religion play a key role on our decisions
What is democracy when education and youth development form less than 15% of the nation's budget
The realities that stair us to the face does not know religion, ethnic group or political affiliation. We drive on same road, go to the same schools, suffer the problem of power, pay the high tuitions and go to the same school, buy from same market and struggle in the labour market together.
We (over 99% of the population) have more in common than we share in common with them (less than 1%).
It is time for decisive action, let's go get our PVC's so we can make them all visit the ''Theatre of their Dreams''. God bless Naija!
Happy Democracy Day!
From a concerned Nigerian youth.
