Freedom is in the mind and heart not on the physical, Africa‟s development has been arrested even before the present 60% of its citizen‟s were born but the minds and the hearts of 100% of Africans, NAIJA included are in their own hands, whom they hand it over to will be their slave master. If you want it could be Europeans, Americans or the new colonial conquerors the Indians and the Chinese. If you want it could be money or whatever the new craze is or it could be sold to Satan to destroy others. But one thing I will say to the truly Naija people reading this book, God told me he is on the ground in Nigeria to take back his own country and he is looking for true Nigerians whom he can use to regain back his most beloved country on earth NIGERIA.

Everything about this country is perfect the climate, the resources, the location, the plains or the hills, the valleys or the rivers except its most recent past leaders. The people are also so beautiful, resilient, resourceful, smart, very intelligent, and strong and the most hardworking people I know on earth. The slave traders needed strong specie of humans to work the cotton fields of the new found country America and after traveling throughout the world searching for a man perfectly made by God to show tenacity, strength , creativity, will power and most importantly healthy not sickly and hardworking. They found that kind of man to settle in the West coast of Africa between Ivory Coast, Senegal Gambia, Ghana, Nigeria etc,  It was empires that ran from Guinea to Tanzania, from Sahara desert to Cape Town, the Shanghai empire and the Oduduwa empire the NRI clans, the Ashanti empire , the Zulu Kingdom and many other empires that might not be mentioned in this book but fill the annals of history.
If you look at it any way you want these Nigerians today are descendant of great warriors princes and princesses of natural conquerors, a thorough breed of what God meant when he was creating a gallant solider, a person worth of maintaining and managing Eden. I believe that Adam if he was to be in the world today he would have the resemblance of a true Nigerian “TRULY NAIJA”.
A great disciplined warrior who would never let his individual greed or selfishness over cloud his God given senses until sin brought him down through his beautiful wife Eve, who was seduced by the potential of artificial power she would have gained by knowing something that God did not want her to know and on the process they both lost all the glory of God that they were given without asking for it. It came with the land with the position.
How much has the great warrior fallen? How are the mighty fallen. How shall the great Nation rise again? From the dusts and be who God has intended for HER to be. The true Nigerians who are tired of mediocrity would rise and be counted. Stand up and vote, vote out every member of this present legislature if any person call himself an intellect and does not play a role in this quiet bloodless revolution that has already started in 2010 and will go on until 2019 when all the actors of this nightmare, these present day smooth criminals & Politian‟s should have been purged completely from the political systems of every state and federal government in Nigeria. You are a traitor to the new Nigeria that we are all about to build, if you do not stand up against the INCACUDUS OF OUR TIME.
2
A new dawn has come and we have a new leader a gentle giant a leader whom like David, did not choose himself, but God put him forward, GODLUCK EBELE AZIKIWE JONATHAN.
Some say he is not forceful enough, some say he is not aggressive enough, some say he is not experienced enough, all this may or may not be true, since I do not know him closely but however way he is, I know that God who appointed him for Nigeria for a time like this knows all the qualities, he would need in a leader and deposited all in him, that would lead us through this transitional period into our greatness. So if he needs forceful leaders, we have had them, IDIAGBON, BUHARI, ABACHA and things did not change for the better.
If it is experienced leaders we have had them, Ibrahim Babangida who has accepted to be behind many coup data’s in the past and eventually took over and ruled for 8 years nothing changed for good, but more corruption and decay.

[b]If it is aggressive leaders, we had OLUSEGUN OBANSANJO, who’s aggressiveness was known all over the world even on CNN, he could not mask that aggressiveness while being interviewed for a global audience, so we would have arrived at our Canaan Land filled with milk and honey. If what is needed is aggressiveness then OBASANJO who is the only leader in this country, who was sworn in three times, he ruled for 4 years as a military general and 8 years as a civilian president. He is the only one who ruled this country the longest totally, but at the end of that, he still felt he has not done enough, that we all should change the constitution, so he could rule another 4 years before he could find the magic wand, that would change the lot of Nigerians. But when the people were given the choice during the NASS elections just concluded last week the people showed their disdain for him and his daughter in his constituency, in that they voted her out of the legislature, So if it was aggressiveness we need in a leader Obasanjo would have gotten us into the promise Land.
Maybe GOODLUCK, EBELE AZIKIWE JONATHAN is actually who we need right now to play his own role in the theatre which is unfolding in the Nigerian stage. Maybe we need a leader who is not so aggressive but yet firm, who is not forceful but decisive and meticulous, maybe we need a leader who is not as experienced in what was the modus Operand a of the Nigerian past leadership. I call them enemies of the STATE, the enemies of progress; the elite of disgrace and squared opportunities of providence. The INCACUDUS OF OUR TIME (The INCACUDUS is a coined word to qualify an educated man or woman with every potential and qualification to be great, but choose to become an slowpoke or worthless person).[/b]
A person who’s incapability to perform is not resulting from hindrances from without i.e lack of education, resources or ability, but from their moral decay, as a result of his past experience and the present reality devoid of any moral integrity or sense of dignity.
He wants to be part of a culture of deceit, rot and corruption at its worst level. A person who’s level of decay in character is beyond measure and therefore cannot be qualified with any existing vocabulary, so I was lead to coin a special word to describe what had been the leadership of this great country called NAIJA since 1978
.THE INCACUDUS OF OUR TIME
3
By 2010 we‟ve had 32 years of corruption, decay and degradation as a country. If we all work hard and put our heads together and all hands on the deck, together with this present, leadership, whether he is your best candidate or not, we might change the tide, this very election of 2011 and if we will even work harder when he comes on as an elected President and hold him responsible together with the entire new elected officials both in state and federal level. We would have accomplished what would have taken 10 years of bloody war to accomplish in other parts of the world in one single election. This is how important Nigeria 2011 election is to the Nigerian people.
Now after the election, we must rally together at our various constituencies and set a panel, which would comprise of all Nigerians both opposition and ruling party, both the old and the young in this movement, to hold those elected officials accountable to their manifestoes and campaign promises. It does not take the whole country to turn the hand of progress; it takes a few determined people committed to a just cause to change a nation. I believe that this is the moment, now is that point in the history of Nigeria when we have the only window providence has given us the „N‟ generation the [b]NEXT NEW NIGERIAN [/b]to take our destinies into our own hands and our children would not forgive us if we let this opportunity slip through our hands.
If you were less than five years old at independence in 1960, you are among the „N‟ generation of leaders, who can play a role in this transition and transformation of our dearly beloved country, if you are born five years before the 1960 independence, you belong to the old generation, the colonial generation. (The “C” Generation) You should get out of the way for the new breed of leaders to match on , the best you can do is of proffer your outdated opinions and analog advices, which could only be useful in the historical analysis of what went wrong and how we should not let this happen again in the history of our great nation Nigeria, if you are a patriotic Nigerian, you would acknowledge the difficult reality faith has handed you, to have belonged to a group who knew what has gone wrong and knew how to fix it but did not do anything about it, and waited till when it was too late to act, to say I want to do something about the situation.

If our generation ‟N‟ does not do anything or act on the situation and do something brought about by the C generation then we would be tainted with the same bug that infested the Colonial generation.
The C generation has been robbed during their time, of the chance to make a difference, due to the moral bankruptcy of the era, of the right to postulate ideas or vision of a future they will not be part of. They had fought a bad fight with whatever they had and where not able to make a tangible change leaving us to inherit a lost glory, endless promises not kept, we would be silly to wait till we are 55 years or more to tell the next generation how to plan and build their own future, every man has the inalienable right to plan and execute the plan of his own future, no one can plan and execute a better society for a generation if that generation is not part of the planning and execution of that plan.
The past leaders of Nigeria has been planning and misfiring in their attempt to build a future for us until now, they have not even decided on the direction of the future, talk less of the how mechanism and the implementation part of the program.
4
.So I say to my fellow NAIJA people, 75% of us should know better the type of future we want and we surely have the means and the know how within our people both in the country and in the Diaspora to build the kind of Nigeria we want to leave in and the opportunity is front of us.
It is incumbent of us all to either take the bull by the horn and define our future, or sit back and complain about how our leaders have been all corrupt and bad leaders as if that can solve the problem. We have a leader who listens and is willing to do the will of the people, WE HAVE GOOD LUCK JONATHAN vote him in and hold him accountable.
Democracy is a beautiful thing if you work it, but if you do not work it, it will work you, when a system is not worked by the people but, It working the people, that becomes anarchy and oppression ensues.
Nigeria had allowed the system; it did not understand at the beginning to work it for the last 12 years and this is the real tragedy, that we have endured the past decade what Fela Ransome Kuti, becoming a genuine prophet, called democrazy the demonstration of craziness.

“DEMO-CRAZY‟

We now have the opportunity to work the system i.e fine tune our own democracy based on our needs and situations and get away from Political party loyalty, Regional and Ethnic loyalty, but get on with Biographical loyalty, Ideological loyalty and Generational loyalty( i.e for example the first ideology is that, today in Nigeria leadership of the old must go, right now if you are 55 years and above and you have nothing tangible you can show you have done for your country, you better give way for a younger, smarter and sharper leader to take over).
If you have accomplished something and have results to show, we would celebrate you as you prepare to hand over power voluntarily to maintain the respect of the next generation. If we have to wrestle power from your hand, you do not deserve the respect of the people following you. Take your loot and move on, there would not be amnesty for those who did not surrender power on their own, ask Mubarak of Egypt or the Gbagbo of Ivory Coast, after they have passed on the baton, we would investigate them until every stolen wealth is recovered and the person will Roth in prison for the rest of their life.
If you go to the polling booth, if you do not know anything about the people vying for office but you have the mandate to vote, vote the youngest person in the lineup with the generational agenda that depicts THE NEW NEXT NIGERIA (“N” FACTOR), if you know them vote the person with the youngest ideology or agenda and vote for the person who knows what generation ‟N‟ is all about. If the candidate is analog, you should not even consider what he or she has to say.
What has the typewriter to say in a wireless office of a modern day entrepreneur, who needs a fax machine in today‟s business world of internet, tweeting & face book, same way is the insignificance of an analog politicians or leaders in the NEXT NEW NIGERIAN PROJECT. They belong to the museum. NO President of any major western country is older than 55 when he or she took office, is there something Nigerians or Africans are missing in this digital or celluloid age.Check the Brits, the French or the USA, the new breed of leaders are just young.

President Barrack Obama could never have become president in the USA if he was an analog leader or if he wanted to please the status quo of the America “ INCACUDUS”. The incacudus of our time exits in every country of the world but my interest is in the ones who leave in Nigeria and America. If Obama did not emerge as the president of America the US by now would have become the largest failed state of our time even thou it is still in hot pursuit of that title. It has been tainted in many circles that if you look at the USA and it‟s debt with the same prism that the IMF and the World Bank had looked at developing countries especially, African countries in the 80‟s and 90‟s the USA should have devalued the dollar by 100% and must have been told not to print anymore monies and downgrade its bonds, no one would dare buy the treasury bills anymore for security in the financial world, its fundamentals would have been seen for what it is, (a broke Nation) or seen as the DEBTOR NATION.
The World Bank and the IMF would have had to instill severe austerity measures in the country. Therefore making life so miserable the citizens would have revolted and therefore a civil war or war of the classes will ensue, the haves on the one side and the have not‟s on the other.
Well let‟s watch and see what would become of the greatest economy of our modern time, if the narrow minded people in the United States of America will overpower the more broad minded people of the same country in the 2012 presidential election when the result of the ongoing war of the haves and the have not‟s would be made clear in the polls and however America makes her bed, she will lie on it.
The world has welcomed Obama election into office and is willing to give America the benefit of the doubt that it could over look their differences, when it matters and elect a young smart and articulate black man, president of the most powerful country on the world, if it will save us from the rapid slid into oblivion. The smart enlightened Americans have seen what the INCACUDUS of the Americas brought on the country in the Bush years, and say we do not mind a negro president if it will lift the country out of the shackles of debt, over bloated government, economic indiscipline and poverty. We do not mind a president from Africa if he has the solutions to our problems.
If Nigerians could learn a lesson from the pages of the present day American reality, we can overcome our differences and join hands and elect a president that best suits our present situation irrelevant of the persons ethnic or tribal background but the most important thing is that he must be smart, sharp and young full of life and vitality, no more quarter to go presidents who‟s relatives held this country hostage or those leaders whose children are grandpa‟s and grand ma‟s yet they think there are ideas and creative visions left in them that a younger contender could not trump a billion times in this digital and fast paced world.
In Africa any State Governor or President, that does not use tweeter, face book or internet should resign voluntarily because events will overtake him or her before he could say Amen.
I postulate to my constituents, people of the generation „N‟ that we should have one platform, that units all of us and let that be the ideological loyalty and generational loyalty based on the fact that-;
6
“A NEW AFRICA AND A NEW NIGERIA CANNOT AND WILL NOT BE BUILT ON OLD IDEAS WITH OLD HANDS”.

If in the next 5 years we establish this ideology starting during this year‟s poll and the next polls of 2015, we would have successfully wrestled power out of the hands of the INCACUDUS of our time and would have place politics far off beyond the bunch of political thugs, who were not even educated enough to use the internet talk less of becoming digital. If we put the electoral process and government on the digital platform, which is taking the battle to our own play ground, then 50% of the present day INCACUDUS in Nigeria would become lost and nonexistent on that platform.
The second thing it will do is help us unite as a Nation of young people, who has been deprived a voice for so long, and yet we empowered this buffoon‟s by celebrating them in their Necumpu state, which encouraged them to think the more that this country, thanks to the past military rulers, have turned into a banana republic where people complain and criticize leaders but do nothing about it .
The military took out of the Nigerians their fighting spirit during the dictator years of oppression and human right abuse fused with random killing of any voice of reason.
Thank God it is a new day today, where the killing is amongst power thirsty INCACUDUS willing to invest all they have, all they can borrow and sell their soul and any other person dare to them, in their blind pursuit to serve a nation that has never, said thank you to its previous leaders.
No president of this nation has been celebrated by the people, no senator or governor except Governors Fashola of Lagos State, Chibuike Ameachi of Rivers State, Peter Obi of Anambra State and a few other young generation „N‟ leaders on the political scene, so you should ask yourself a question, why would a sane person mame, kill and be willing to die for a country that does not celebrate or appreciate public servants, without serving in the Military or a legitimate battle front. It can only mean share greed, power crazed or power drunken INCACUDUS.
A normal sane leader would wait for his or her people to come and ask them that the people would want him or her to represent or serve their people either in the Local, State or National level or also as the chief servant of the Nation but if the people choose you to represent them am sure you would not resort to thugs, killing and maiming the opposition.
Because you would be sure that those who selected you, will vote for you and what joy is there in a victory, you know you did not win or if one was chosen because the opposition was eliminated by you or your supporters through assassination, this is the order of the day in what Fela Ransome Kuti called demo-crazy, demonstration of craziness even before it showed up in the shores of this country
For the first time in the history of this nation we have a president who is running for office and is calling on all supporters to not Kill for him or on his behalf, a leader who depends on his people to prod him to come and rule them, a leader who is simple and humble, A president who is like your NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOOR.
