Nigerians: Our Mediocrity Values Must Stop by waldigit: 4:06am On Aug 25, 2015
Nigerians hear me out on the way we think. When will our values change when shall we stop craving to be rich in wealth, but poor in idea? When shall we stop celebrating mediocrity in the name of love for materialism? When shall the values be placed on what we are capable of doing as opposed to what we have.

We are always proud to declare that we are endowed with natural resources such as oil etc, but never be proud of owing a patient to a single technology of exploring these natural resources

The miracle we celebrate in our religious houses has always been we have been able to acquire private jets and able to build the largest auditorium in the world, but never has anyone celebrated a miracle of our ability to invent new technology for creating these wealth. What type of miracle do we ask from God?

God showed us in bible that we can change our destiny. Why then have we failed to opt for this choice instead of being complacent to be second class citizen of the world?

The economy that has majority of its citizen living below 1 dollar a day is celebrating producing the richest politicians, businessmen and clergymen that can compete favourably with G7 economies. Frankly speaking, this is CORRUPTION induced MISNORMAL.

Our mediocrity values is always driving us to religious houses to go asking to be an island of prosperity amidst ocean of poverty. And it seems, God in his faithfulness is granting our hearts desire to our collective shame among community of world nations.
