The Nigeria Of My Dream by solajacobs(m): 2:41pm On Sep 03, 2006
After a serious thought about the part,the present and my vision for Nigeria, i decided to come out with this topic to reassure my people from all tribes and religions that indeed, a new day is coming.despite the fact that the nation has witnessed all sort of things since its inception,yet,what interests me most is that we can jointly make Nigeria a nation of our dream. Our attitude must change,our life must reflect the good image of our dream. I dream of a great nation where everybody irrespective of our background,would live together in peace and harmony., I dream of an highly civilized nation where exportation of our scientific initiatives would be a culture., I dream of a nation where there would be no poor or illiterate., I dream of a nation where the security of lives and properties is guaranteed., I dream of a nation flowing with milk and honey., I dream of a nation where there is neither south nor west,neither east nor north but one big family called Nigeria. What is your dream for Nigeria?

May God bless nigeria. May God bless all of us. Nigeria shall rise again, Let us think of how to save our dear nation. This is the only place we can trully call ours. We can make it happen. I love you all.

I don't think I have the right to dream about Nigeria because nigeria doesn't belong to me. But I can dream about the things that belong to me in Nigeria.
- I can dream about Nairaland, that it wil grow.
- I can dream about my bank account, that I'll have millions in it.
- I can dream about my future home, that it will be full of love.

The problem about dreaming about Nigeria, which belongs to none of us, is that our dreams about Nigeria will conflict with each other, which will cause fighting and political conflicts among us.

It's better to dream about the aspect of Nigeria that belongs to you. Your self, properties, money, career, etc.

I don't agree oh!. Nigeria belongs to me (us - shared inheritance).

Did you finish reading my post before reacting? I said:

Have you ever wondered why politics is the most brutal profession in Nigeria? Because everyopne is trying to control the country for personal gain. It doesn't work! It's better to work out a system that'll enable each Nigeria to mind his own business and make it work to the benefit of himself/herself first, and then the country later on.

We should fight government-supported monopolies and resource plundering arrangements in the name of shared ownership and support entrepreneurship and private ownership. Each man his own dream.

I read your entire post. But we can still dream about the kind of Nigeria we want. We can have all the dreams as long as its positive.

Hello guys,

In view of this topic, I found out about a really cool opportunity today where teenagers can now have this same kind of thinking and expression about Nigeria. Imagine how much of an impact we can make on the future if we start critical thinking about national building at such a young age.

Here's the post on this:

I think you are getting it mixed. It is Biafra you are dreaming of. All that cannot happen in Nigeria. How can Nigeria export scientific initiatives when all the technology Biafrans created were dumped. How can Nigerians see themselves as one when they mouth off stuff about a fair society that they would like but tell them that landlords are refusing tenant and they say "leave am like dat". Biafra is the way.
