WE BUILT THIS PLACE

by Ademola H. Adigun

A lecturer wanting 5 rounds to pass a female student.
A policeman demanding 500k for bail.
A judge demanding 5m for judgement.
A public servant demanding 50m for a contract.
A voter demanding 5k for his/her vote.
A clergy demanding 5-500k for “blessings”.

A leader(s) close their eyes to corruption and nepotism.
A parent offering 50k for ward’s admission into school or paying for exam questions.

A society rewarding incompetence.
A society closing its mind to murder.
A society shutting down common sense.
A society designed to allow the worst to emerge to the top, in many respects.
A society that justifies all things in the name of politics, tribe, ethnicity and individual benefit.

A society that blackmail others for difference in thinking.

A Nation that we have all collectively built. One working towards oppressing the other. Where impunity is rife. Where our default thinking is on wailing or hailing never a consideration of the issue.

*A society with low or no expectations from their leaders.

A society in conflict with itself.

*A society where thought is absent. That all issues are swept under the carpet depending on who holds the broom and where all things can be covered depending on where the umbrella tilts.

A society where seemingly educated men run away from speaking out in the face of evil so that they will be seen as saints or erring on the side of his ethnic descent, religious or political leaning or simply bandwagon effect without minding the consequence however grave. For some, they had voted for their early or untimely grave, for some they had voted for the extinction of their family and for some ethnic cleansing is staring them in the face with tolls of death on a daily basis!

A society where evil doers are glorified by men who pretend to be gentlemen.

A society where men have no regards to the legacy they will leave behind.

*A society where money is preferred to wisdom!!!

*We built this place!

No one has monopoly to zombiism. If you're not a zombie to PDP flagbearers, you're definitely one to his APC counterparts. Let's stop glorifying any Nigeria politician, they're all the same, they only have their own personal and immediate family members interest at heart, not for Nigerians. And unfortunately we Nigerians are making this very easy for them. It's high time we wake up from our sleep and jointly see these politicians as our common enemies.
