Nigeria @ 49;the Genesis,the Shame And The Hope by RUBRICS(m): 4:31pm On Oct 02, 2009 |
The bravery, courage, eagerness and indefatigability of some Nigerian heroes led to the removal of gag from mouth and shackles from the legs of mother Nigeria. It was the pressing need and selfless hearts of these heroes towards the unborn generation of this nation that arose in them, the determination to put up a challenge to imperialism and an indictment to colonialism. They innoculated themselves with the poison of resistance against tyrrany. After a prolonged fight and reaffirmation of faith, their dream came into reality on october 1, 1960. That was when the tyrranical British ruler declared Nigeria as being free from slavery. Notable among tyrranists is Dr Malan Apartheid who would have submerged the whole Africa, if not for the restiveness of the late visioner sages. Truly, I agree with Havelock Ellis who said "there would not have been Francis the Saint,if there are had not been Francis the Sinner". But reverse is the case with the path through which Nigerian politics is being played nowadays. The suffering of the initiators is now being turned down without any encouraging regards.I imagine,if the these so called selfless fighters could have an acess to reincarnation, and still with the memories of their slavery before liberty, it would have spelt doom for all the present day selfcentered-politicians. It is very shameful thet after four decades and nine years,70% Nigerian are still in abject poverty . While our road networks are decorated with pot holes, epileptic power outage tosses our economy like pendulum. The interest of the masses in the face of this country Governance has been soiled contrary to the definition of democracy, according to a political icon, as the government of the people, by the people and for the people. The quest for power by some aspirants is no more for the people at the grassroot but for their curruptible bellies. And this has gotten long tap root to the extent that the developing embryo in the womb of her mother is already with the mentality of embezzling funds, while in power. Conclusively,it is high time goverment of this nation took a new face by visiting the source of our independence and taking a rectifying action with a newness and righteousness of heart by all top officials in all the government statals, for a better service to humanity. I am sure that with the avoidance of selfcenteredness and total erasure of the phylosophy of political investment, colosal change for better will be recorded. Feel free to air your view |
