Time For Sincere Proper Self Revaluation:* by Glycosunde: 8:59am On May 12, 2019 |
The blunt truth. Nigeria and Nigerians! *TIME FOR SINCERE PROPER SELF REVALUATION:* **In Nigeria, we are just a dishonest, unpatriotic and ungodly human beings on the path of self destruction* . _A shame on our race._ *I totally agree with the following by Bar Ola Kunle Allison: who says* *Religion is not our albatross in Nigeria* . It has never been. *WE ARE JUST A SICK INDIGENOUS PEOPLE BLAMING EVERYTHING* _BUT OURSELVES._ I just saw a short documentary on *CNN* about the *Emirate of Dubai (an Islamic State)* and *her many disruptive and record-breaking technological/innovative strides, and my heart sank into despair* . *Dubai* is NOT a *country* . It is just *one out of seven emirates that make up the UAE* . An Islamic country which declared *independence* from *Great Britain* in *1971* . Yet, *Dubai is the fastest growing Science and ICT hub in the world. Yes, you read that correctly; in the world!* As I watched the documentary and *marveled at the unbelievable leaps in education, innovation and infrastructure achieved within 50years,* I began to compare *the emirate with our own Emirate of Sokoto and Emirate of Kano back home.* ```Folks, the difference is a universe apart.``` *Did you know that the Emirate of Dubai has singlehandedly launched 2 satellites into Space?* Did you know that the last *launched spacecraft* had the *innovative signature of a Dubai teenage girl on it?* *A teenager who dreams to be the first astronaut on Mars* . Did you know that by 2020 the Dubai emirate will be launching *its first Mars Exploration Spacecraft?* Did you know that the Dubai emirate currently has the largest number of *FOREIGN RESEARCH SCIENTISTS AND ICT EXPERTS IN THE WORLD?* *This is a deeply culturally Islamic State prioritizing Science, Technology and Futurism.* What then is different about their own *practice of Islam and the ones we have here at home?* What is different about their practice of *Islam* which *encourages a teenage girl to aspire to Mars* while *emirates at home marry off under aged girls?* What is different about their practice of Islam *which prioritizes innovations and science* , while even *Churches* back at home only *prioritize buildings and tithing?* *Guys, religion is not Nigeria's albatross.* Anyone who argues *otherwise* is *thinking fallaciously.* Nigeria is messed up because we *have our own issues.* _Our orientation, our mindset, our value-system, our sociocultural ethics, our ways are deeply_ *ANTIPROGRESSIVE!* I just saw men in *Arabic gowns and women in Arabic purdah* (the moderate ones) having a dialogue about championing the next *frontiers in science and innovations.* *Any so-called Christian who defends the kind of Christianity we practice in this country is part of the problem.* For now, the *Emirate of Dubai* is the *leader of the Arab World* . *A well deserved title.* #truth is sacred Selah. *PROFESSOR ISA HUSSAINI OF FACULTY OF PHARMACY UNIVERSITY OF MAIDUGURI WROTE* : _The blame for what Nigeria has become falls on you and me. Not Buhari, not Jonathan, not Obasanjo and definitely not Abacha._ *OUR WICKEDNESS STINKS TO THE HEAVENS AS WE GO ABOUT OUR DAILY LIVES, PULLING DOWN EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING TO BECOME RICH.* We import substandard products, fake drugs and expired baby food unfit for human consumption and *we have the nerve to complain about leadership?* *We even steal from widows, orphans, weaklings and refugees. We take their food and sell it for profit. No conscience.* Nothing is sacred. No one is spared. *WE BUILD SUBSTANDARD ROADS, SCHOOLS, HOUSES, HOSPITALS, ALL FOR PROFIT AT THE EXPENSE OF HUMAN LIFE;AN INVALUABLE ITEM WHICH ALL OUR PROFIT AND CONTRACT SUM CANNOT BUY.* One would think this behavior is reserved for urchins *but it would surprise you that this is the character of many decent looking people who appear to be normal but are not any better than Boko Haram members.* _They are church members, Muslims, husbands, wives and sadly youths_ . *WE PERVERT JUSTICE AND PRETEND WE DO NOT KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG JUST TO SERVE OUR SELFISH INTERESTS.* *Slave traders pale in comparison to what we do to ourselves.* WE ARE WICKEDNESS PERSONIFIED. *So much hatred flows in our blood and we transfer it to our children. It's evident in what we say and do.* We have fasting and prayer sessions all year long, night vigils and deliverance when the actual problem is *us* . *WE SIMPLY CANNOT LEARN TO LOVE OTHERS . IT IS ME, ME, ME. THAT IS ALL THAT EVER MATTERS. IT IS SICKENING.* *Anyone who cannot love has no business in Politics, Government Parastatals / Agency and in Nigeria.* *Until we understand this, we will continue on this path of destruction* . I can Change, You can Change, They can Change and We can Change by Sharing and Spreading this message....Change starts with Me.... 1 Like 1 Share |
