Hello my fellow Nigerians, how are you all doing? Well, I am not okay. I have always had the opinion that things will get better and our land will be green again.
As of today, I don't know how to feel about the situation of our dear country. I am very worried considering the present happenings.
The cost of living keeps increasing by the day and employers are not willing to review the salaries of their employees.. How do people living below poverty survive? You can no longer cook a decent meal for 1,000 naira.
Insecurity is still Nigeria's biggest challenge. Kids are no longer safe in their schools as kidnapping has become the order of the day. Families of kidnapped victims are living in pain and still unsure of what will happen next. Farmers are scared to go to their farm because of fear of being attacked. People are now living in fear.
What is the government doing to tackle this issue? Is Twitter the problem of the country? The government keeps focusing on the wrong things, neglecting other pressing issues. We are supposed to be the giant of Africa. Has the mighty fallen?
What is the way forward? What can we do as Nigerians? Praying alone cannot change things. Even the bible says 'faith without work is dead'.
Let's not forget some of our youths that lost their lives while trying to make a change. How many more lives will be lost before this change is achieved? People are now scared to speak up because according to them 'if you die for Nigeria na you lose'.
What is the way forward? I ask again. I want my kids to grow up in a safe environment. I want the next generation to be happy. How can this happen? Is this even possible? Is moving out the way forward? Is there still light at the end of the tunnel?
Despite my worries, I still believe there is hope for our dear Nation. We will be great again. Las las we go dey alright.
