Nice!

Edited :

If I am firstus des commentus, I will like to dedicate this to the following people:

The patriotic Nigerians who criticised the past administration, knowing fully well what the challenges were, while playing their part to improve the country.

And

The patriotic Nigerians who are criticising this government, understansing that progress will take painful processes, while offering solutions to the problems.

They will not be caught saying "I never knew it was this tough" or "I never knew we have this good system" whenever they are called to lead.

We will make Nigeria as good looking as some of these places if we keep the people's good interests first.

Peace
