NIGERIA AT 56

I hear this  and I wonder what we have achieved since gaining independence on 1st October 1960.56 years back on 1st of October 1960 Nigeria got her independence from the British. It was the agitation of our heroes past that made it possible. Since independence, Nigeria has experience a lot of hardship and disruption ranging from military coup d’etat, inter ethnic rivalry, religious conflicts, election irregularities, unemployment, you name them. Corruption seems to be the order of the day.
What have we achieved? The state of the nation’s economy is nothing to write home about. The youths who are the leaders of tomorrow are suffering and the graduates are unemployed. The citizens are dying in suffering and poverty. Even the rich are not left out. The present government talks about fighting corruption but we don’t understand their method. All we have experience is increase in everything. They said change but if this is the change, I bet nobody wants it. We are in recession and economic crisis, yet we celebrate. Oh how the mighty has fallen.
Nigeria is 56 today, what we should think about is how to make Nigeria better and great once more. For s better Nigeria, it starts with everyone. Let’s take away our differences and make our nation better.
HAPPY NEW MONTH everyone
HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY
GOD BLESS NIGERIA
