If we come out in group and protest I believe the leader will have no choice than to take action necessary to make this country a better place. Everyone has to come out. Just take a look at number of celebrities that came out to protest #endsars. It's a very good start and we need them

Truth is many people are waiting for Nigeria to do something for them. While they are not willing to do anything for her.

We have negative mindset and believe that we can never achieve big. Unfortunately, Nigeria is our only home whatever we do is for it is for our own benefit.

Everyone is saying this and that, forgetting the fact that Nigeria is where it is today because of it's citizens.Note other countries are not where they are today only because of it's government (politicians).it's citizens played a major role.
Simple things like obeying rules and regulations are part of it.Unfortunatly most people in Nigeria don't,yet we somehow find ways to blame politicians alone, from adults to youths even children we all have a role to play if we want this country to develop

The writer should stop giving false hope. You and I know nothing good will ever come from this Union called country.

I repeat, nothing good ever!

Disintegration is the only way out.

Besides, we are three parts, two insisting on leaving or restructure the fraud union but one insist we must stay together and object restructuring. What exactly are they scaring about?

To be sincere, one Nigeria can't work, We can keep decieving ourselves for the next 1billion years, The truth is we will never record any tangible progress!

Maybe it could have been better if Nigeria is only made up of only the southern part, But To be honest, the northern Nigeria are the major problem of Nigeria, Or let me put it this way!!

We're all the problem of nigeria but the northern Nigeria contribute atleast 70% to Nigeria problem!!

When others Region are obsessed with Development, Good governance, Electricity

The northern Nigeria is only concerned about her religion, Jihadist and bullsh!t The Fulani want dominance,, they don't give a sh!t about one Nigeria as long as they keep gaining ground and spreading their religion all over the place, It would have been better if they are using this same energy to make Nigeria a better country

The best solution that will favor every region now is secession, It's good to be in a country with people that you share the same ideas, culture with, There will be progress!!

There Truth is One nigeria can't work

Some of us are no longer interested in 'one Nigeria' and just want to be given a referendum to exit this failed British colonial contraption called Nigeria

Truth is things are deteriorating quickly in the country, who knows, maybe the only reason Nigeria hasn't fallen apart totally is because of the few people who still very much believe and stand with the country.

This past week buzzed with activities and stories to commemorate the country’s Independence Day anniversary. While some of these were quite celebratory, some seemed more despondent and pained.

The 60th anniversary has brought with it some nostalgic desires for the glory days and a celebration of victory milestones, as well as an awareness that Nigeria’s present is a far cry from its much-anticipated great future.

Some Nigerians took to Twitter to air grievances, complaining about the poor state of the country, generally. Others, although not very positive in their remarks, made it clear that rising up to take responsibility, especially when the leaders will not, rests with the true Nigerian

Nigeria is the sum of all its people’s actions and inactions. If we blame Nigeria for failing, we are blaming ourselves and showing to the world that we have failed. Ordinarily, we place the faults with the leaders, forgetting that the people make the leadership because each one is selected from within. We forget that the real power resides with the citizens who vote the leaders into power and, by that choice, we decide to continue to allow the misconducts to happen.

What do we contribute to the bigger picture of the Nigerian dream?

Everything!

We must decide to commit to building our nation, knowing that we are fully for what becomes.

Nigeria remains our home. We are and will remain Nigerians no matter where we live. Why not make a conscious decision to take a stand for growth and development into the great nation that we are. Let’s stand against the choices that make us less than we are. Let’s side with Nigeria.
