At least den go value me for outside if I present any of the 2 pass this green paper. That's how I'm protesting against this dictatorial govt led by our Oga at the top wey we go soon chase to bottom come 2015. And if anybody ask who burn national property na to slot in shaggy singing "It wasn't me". 3 Likes |

I agree with you that there are lot of challenges we are facing and very little to be happy about but we must not give up our hope. We won the nations cup, boko haram has been contained to some extent, there are tremendous improvements in sectors such as aviation, agriculture etc, our economy is poised to overtake SA as the leading economy in Africa and so on I see ASUU strike as a positive thing because our lecturers and tertiary institutions would definitely be better off after the strike only that it's taking too long #teamnaija 4ever 1 Like |

What has Nigeria achieved in 2013? In good terms. 1) she has won the african cup of nations. 2) she been giving money to poor nations. 3) Enugu has its own international airport. 4) good roads . . In bad terms 1) she has become a terrorist nation. 2) ASUU strike 3) lack of security 4) always good in sacking ministers. 5) the price of garri has increased. 4 Likes |

Nigeria has been good to some people, so it is worth celebrating. . . . . . . . . . . You can be a Billonaire in Nigeria without paying a dime in tax, how many other countries can give you that? You can make a lot of money in Nigeria without being creative or intelligent, you don't even need to trade anything or manufacture anything or render services....... you only need to know oga at the top......... Which other country will offer you that opportunity? 2 Likes |

Nigeria we hail thee, Our own dear native land, Though tribe and tongue may differ, In brotherhood we stand, Nigerians all, and proud to serve Our sovereign Motherland. Our flag shall be a symbol That truth and justice reign, In peace or battle honour'd, And this we count as gain, To hand on to our children A banner without stain. O God of all creation, Grant this our one request, Help us to build a nation Where no man is oppressed, And so with peace and plenty Nigeria may be blessed. I pray this prayer comes to fruition!! This was the anthem nigerians recited with purpose and patriotism back then! Even though ''Adolphus Hitler'' is getting on my nerves with his ''I don't know'' and everything is political', I still believe in this country and the sincerity of purpose of the founding fathers!! Boko haram, corruption, bad infrastructure, other problems can't hold us down!we will squash them !! The nigerian spirit will make us rise above mediocrity!! We are a great nation and will always be!! Long live nigeria 10 Likes |

Oh God of creation, direct our noble cause Guide our leaders right Help our youth the truth to know In love and honesty to grow And living just and true Great lofty heights attain To build a nation where peace and justice shall reign. |

If u are a true and patriotic Nigerian, you shouldn't be asking such a question. If u believe in God and the bright future of Nigeria can start from you, you shouldn't ask such a question. If you sit down and think even if for just a minute on how to start improving this nation, u wouldn't be asking this question. Even if we are dissapointed so far with the mode of leadership in Nigeria, we shouldn't be hopeless rather we should pray and celebrate every single day in anticipation of a great expectation. Long live Nigeria God bless u. 2 Likes |
