5. Study and discuss in groups the second chapter of the Nigerian Constitution entitled, FUNDAMENTAL OBJECTIVES AND DIRECTIVE PRINCIPLES OF STATE POLICY.

Does anyone have an idea how one can get the country's constitution?, or at lease the second chapter.

that about half of Nigeria’s annual revenue is spent to maintain the lifestyle of Nigeria’s 18,000 [s]elected public officials while national minimum wage remains at N7, 500?

that graduates of public schools stand little chance of getting good jobs in Nigeria compared to those of better funded private schools both within and outside Nigeria which neither you nor your children can afford except family members of the 18,000 officials?

that in section 17 (2) (d) it is stated that: “In furtherance of the state social order, exploitation of human or natural resources in any form whatsoever for reasons other than the good of the community shall be prevented”, yet the government of Nigeria has allowed oil companies to destroy our environment, destroy our water resources and thus the livelihood of many Nigerians?

Long Live The Federal Republic Of Nigeria !!!

Fellow Nigerians, rescuing Nigeria is not simply a choice but the only choice we must make as Nigerians and friends of Nigeria if this largest black nation on earth will not sink under the yoke of ignorance, waste, corruption, and poverty.

DID YOU KNOW…

1. that over N6.5 trillion was spent to pay salaries and allowances of Nigeria’s 18,000 [s]elected public officials between 1999 and 2009 while Nigerian workers receive peanuts as salaries?

2. that about half of Nigeria’s annual revenue is spent to maintain the lifestyle of Nigeria’s 18,000 [s]elected public officials while national minimum wage remains at N7, 500?

3. that in section 16 (2) (d) of Nigeria’s Constitution it is stated as follows: “The state shall direct its policy towards ensuring that suitable and adequate shelter, suitable and adequate food,reasonable national minimum living wage, old age care and pensions, and unemployment, sick benefits and welfare of the disabled are provided for all citizens”?

4. that because of the outrageous salaries and allowances paid Nigeria’s public officials and their corrupt lifestyle Nigerians have been deprived of the benefits accorded them by section 16 (2)(d) of the Constitution?

5. that the 150 million Nigerians, of whom you are an important member, are expected by the fortunate 18,000 officials to do nothing about this?

6. that our public schools will continue to deteriorate if you do nothing?

7. that the children of the 18,000 officials don’t attend the public schools you or your children attend?

8. that the children of the 18,000 officials shall come back to rule over your less and under educated children if you do nothing?

9. that graduates of public schools stand little chance of getting good jobs in Nigeria compared to those of better funded private schools both within and outside Nigeria which neither you nor your children can afford except family members of the 18,000 officials?

10. that Nigeria’s bad roads, poor electricity, collapsed health system, neglected agriculture and industrial sectors like her public education will not improve if you do nothing?

11. that “vision 2020” shall go the way of “vision 2000” and “vision 2010” if you do nothing?

12. that those [s]elected public officials who may have employed you as a thug send their children to expensive private schools both within and outside Nigeria, and your children shall become thugs to their children in the future should you do nothing?

13. that in section 17 (2) (d) it is stated that: “In furtherance of the state social order, exploitation of human or natural resources in any form whatsoever for reasons other than the good of the community shall be prevented”, yet the government of Nigeria has allowed oil companies to destroy our environment, destroy our water resources and thus the livelihood of many Nigerians?

14. that Nigeria’s Constitution requires in section 17 (3) (d) that: “The state shall direct its policy towards ensuring that there are adequate medical and health facilities for all persons”, yet even our public officials have to seek health care overseas at great national cost?

15. that the option of doing nothing is too costly and not a good option for you to even consider?

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

1. Make a copy or copies of this message according to your ability and give to other Nigerians and friends of Nigeria.

2. Get copies of this message and help distribute at mosques, churches, market places, and at other public places, and also through e-mails to Nigerians and friends of Nigeria.

3. Organize Nigerian students in schools, colleges, and Universities to form Nigeria Rally Movements which will be an ally of the Nigerian Revolutionary Movement.

4. Arrange and invite us to give talks to those groups you have helped form.

5. Study and discuss in groups the second chapter of the Nigerian Constitution entitled, FUNDAMENTAL OBJECTIVES AND DIRECTIVE PRINCIPLES OF STATE POLICY.

6. Write, sign, and send letters of protest to the National Assembly, State Assemblies, the President, Governors, Local government Chairmen, Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission demanding urgent constitutional (including appropriate review of section 84 (3) and section 124 (3) of Nigeria’s Constitution) downward review of salaries of Nigeria’s public officials.

7. Demand for a constitutional requirement of at most 13 federal Ministers and at most 8 state Commissioners, respectively and pegging of Advisers at both national and state levels to the number of federal Ministers and Commissioners, accordingly in order to free resources for investment in the people and avoidance of unnecessary duplication of responsibilities.

8. Organize peaceful processions at public places such as Aso Rock, National and State Assemblies, Local government council offices, offices of the Revenue Mobilization Allocation and Fiscal Commission, and at offices of popular contractors in Nigeria who collaborate with government officials to loot our commonwealth through inflated contract sums, and yet do poor jobs or at worst abandon the project without any consequences.

9. Refuse to give up even if you don’t see immediate results.

10. Refuse to quit even if you encounter persecution, whether from government or neighbors.

The desired change we seek can only happen through organized revolutionary action.

But for too long, Nigeria’s rulers have urged us to “pray” while they prey on the hapless masses. Yes, we believe in divine intervention; but faith without works is dead. God has always worked with and through men and women who match their faith with necessary action.

God will pull down our walls of Jericho, but He MUST have us as concerned Nigerians walk round them 13 times.

Are we ready for the WALK-LONG WALK TO FREEDOM?

Join hands with us as we carry the fight for freedom to Aso Rock, Enough is Enough!!

Long Live The Federal Republic Of Nigeria !!!
