She gained her independence in 1960 from her British colonialist and became republic of hers in 1963.she had witnessed political bombardment as a frequent military intervention in political scene never allowed for a lasting democratic regime. However in 1999 Democracy was re-ushered in and that is what we still have till this moment of writing.
Between 1999-May 28 2015, she has been governed by 3 presidents,with each government dishing out mouth watering manifestos. Has any of them been able to live upto expectation? I leave that to be answered by distinguished readers.

Countrymen I think it high time we started asking questions. to be continued....
