Long Post Alert!!!

You want change in Nigeria, How much have you changed yourself??

Buhari ofcourse is one Man and expecting just Him to bring about a Change in 170 million people is quite a bit too much to ask.

Imagine an accident scene, people are dying some are still alive and awaiting help, the current driver (Unhurt) is blaming the former driver (Unhurt too) for not checking the tyres and fixing the brakes. Some of the survivors inside are blaming the current driver, some others are blaming the previous driver, while people are still suffering, the religious leaders (also unhurt) are leading prayers and calling on the heavens, the suffering and hurt ones still looking for help.

Which one are you, and what are you doing. Who are you blaming?
Great read. nice one OP..

What things do you do differently??

How are your thoughts, words and actions helping You, Us, and your Country.

Accepting responsibility is the first step to changing anything.

Nigeria is in Hard times today, and I blame no one but myself. There is always something I can do to help. There is always something you can do too to help this situation.

I remember in an intercity commercial bus from Ph to Lagos, the driver drove above the speed limits and took some careless maneuvers and some times we spoke out "Ha!!! driver easy oh" at other times we just kept quiet cos some of us also felt we needed to maximise daylight through the rough patches before it gets dark.

Same day, with another set of passengers travelling from Ijebu-Ode to Ibadan, The first little attempt by the aged driver to make any careless maneuver was loudly resisted by all, with echos of "Ahh!!! Baba, di e di e oh (diye diye)(as in, small small, Easy easy), and so he continued cautiously through the journey.

When a driver is driving, it is the collective responsibility of all the passengers to be conscious, sober, and vigilant. In this failure in Nigeria today. No one is exempted

So no need complaining now that, this driver should know what he is doing, or he promised to take you to your destination, or that the previous driver used up all the fuel or messed up the vehicle. The problem is already here, Let us start thinking and doing what we can to bring ourselves out of this, lets treat the wounded, help ourselves and work together irrespective of tribe, political and religious affiliations to get this vehicle working again.

No more passive concern (Sit and observe, complain and blame)

We can do this.

Lets start thinking, lets question our old ways of doing things, don't give up and allow a nonfunctional process continue, profer your solution as best as you can.

THINK!!!

God Bless Nigeria

My thoughts, feel free to share yours too.
