Hi good people,
All I hear, see, read about these days is NIGERIA IS A FAILED STATE. Corruption everywhere every time. Crude oil theft threatening to cripple the economy. National security challenges especially in the North. Education sector at a standstill. Religious and cultural division and discrimination in almost any public forum. Skyhigh unemployment. Nigerians either behaving badly or being behaved badly to abroad. Need I talk about our power sector?
But haba! Na only us!!? Today I'm thinking differently. I refuse to submit to negativity. I choose to stubbornly seek for the good in all this. But its actually quite hard for me so I need your help. Lets write out all the good things about Nigeria (no sarcasm please)... maybe if we can all develop a nice long list and read it over and over again it will at least make us feel a little better about our lot in life.
I can think of U-17 Cup victory.
I can think of beautiful ladies with the sexiest bodies on earth.
I can think of very nice sunny weather for many months in the year.
Can you think of something good about our country?

Perseverance

so many good things about 9ja....but i must point out dis.....even with d sufry and s.m.i.l.i.n.g thing in 9ja...we still survive and eventually turn meaningful citizens.....it amazes me.....dats one good thing about it....

I love my country. It's just matter of time everything will be alright.
There is still hope.
Many countries are more corrupt that Nigeria all we need is unity.
We need to accept what we have and learn how to live with each other, then we will see the good Side of Nigeria.
The crime in the us, china, Russia in a month is more than what happen in Nigeria a year.
Let's learn how to love
Respect each other opinion. Then we will all see how this country is powerful in everything.



May almighty God be with us and bless Nigeria.
Amen

@Ayomel: Amen to that.
But what about right now.... not a prayer for things to be better in future, TODAY... What specific things are u proud of that is in place now. What can we beat our chest about on this day?

A land of opportunities ! A land of opportunities ! A land of opportunities ! I love Naja

One good thing about Nigeria is that you can loot the treasury and go scot-free. Up Nigera. Yes another one is the our U-17 lifted the trophy yesterday. Praise the lord. Another good thing is that we did not die of generator fumes last night. Praise the lord.

All you need to do is mention one specific thing.
E.g. Strong sense of respect for elders.
