Dear Nigeria by Pringozie02(m): 7:59am On Mar 20, 2013
Every Nigerian Do Something! Failure and Death ENDS Now!

On Monday 18th of March a suicide bomber detonated his car at a crowded bus station in Kano. Dozens were killed in a most horrendous way and dozens more have been injured, maimed and many are on the verge of death. Many Nigerians will live with permanent body damage due to this incident. Many homes have been destroyed, bread winners killed, wives, children, friends and no-bodies. Tomorrow, Nigeria will move on, soon the rest of us will have forgotten this. Nigeria will not even declare a day of mourning for such heart wrenching loss.

We "survivors," will continue our daily living without a memory of this event and those who fell victim of our failure as a nation. Yes, this has happened before, and nothing has changed.

Are we going to let this go by? Are we who happen to have survived still going to just allow our nation run in reckless abandon? Do we know that it could have been any one of us reading this today, thank God, that could have been killed or maimed in this horrible tragedy?

Nigerians, we whine, we talk, we complain, but obviously that is not enough. It is time that EVERY NIGERIAN DO SOMETHING. The government are not people we don't know, they are not people we are not related to. We beg them for kobo and favor, while we know and allow people in the capacity of "My Oga at The Top," who we know definitely do not have the skill's set to occupy their positions, be in charge of our safety and security. Are Boko Haram spirits? Are they not people, not human beings, that we know and see them conspiring, but we let them go without doing something? How long will we sit and patronize this decay? Is it till we are killed by it?

Dear Nigerians, this is far from a call for violence, this is a call for good works.
