I pray our father-land serves us as we serve our father-land...

What have we done to the animal kingdom. Funny as it may seem, I bath myself in amazement.It's a shame what we have done to our birthplace. Now we are thinking of ways to escape its wrath. Desperate and hypocritical lies were we told.We can't escape this plight!


Ignorance, Negligence and environmental carelessness. Yes we are all guilty, of all these and more activities in futility. Burning of farmlands, its farming season lest I forget.Burning of waste at almost all the street junctions.


Global Warming, means global warning! Yes, I'm right. The once known weather patterns are now unpredictable and strange. No matter how subtle or conspicuous we are all experiencing climate change.

In truth, we can try to calm her wrath for the generations unborn.We could all play a role in earth's protection and rejuvenation. If only you and me put our heart and effort towards this just for a second. It's our home, our heritage, our planet, above all Our Nigeria!
