CultureRe: What Has Been Your Experience With Juju? by DonOvero: 10:26am On Sep 28, 2010
HAHA,

Juju does not exist. I am not denying that there is evil in the world i am denying the ability of a man to turn inot a lamb, or nail clipping being used to turn your life to misery.

Up untill I did my degree in Psychology, I was told that sleep paralysis was someone using juju to fly through the night an press your chest.

Guys,

There is no such thing as JuJu. its folklore and superstions designed to control people by fear. Purely irrational.

Come on, 'I pick up a coin on the floor and can turn into a goat' was a story told to me once. as a child I was scared stiff, as an adult, I laugh my ass off!

I am a Nigerian living in the UK and I feel sad at seeing what this great nation has become, sorrowful at what it should have been and sombre at the prospects for the future.

A great person said “decisions are made by those who show up” so I have to ask myself who is failing who? The answer is I have failed Nigeria. This country with such wealth both materially but more importantly culturally has been squandered and pillaged both by foreigners but more unforgivably by its own citizens. They who would sit there in luxury why their people sit in squalor, jobs for their corruptible while their people look for jobs, waste more food in a day than their people see in a month is indefensible. Enough is enough.

We, the people must break free from the shackles of the past; we must long for a better Nigeria, a Nigeria that is truly a giant and not a Nigeria that is a giant waste.

We should never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed Nigerians can change the situation. We have the tools, we need the passion and we need conviction. The conviction to love our fellow brother and sisters, to respect our elders and to respect what God blessed our country with abundance.

Trouble lies everywhere in Nigeria. We must start with Education. Education is key.
There's not enough character, discipline, and depth in our classrooms. There isn't nearly enough, not nearly enough money in our classrooms, and we can do something about that. We're not doing nearly enough, not nearly enough to teach our children well. And we can do better, and we must do better, and we will do better. And we will start this moment today!

Our leaders have not led. Those who we should trust have been untrustworthy. Those in Government have not governed and those who had power have had that power corrupt them. Enough is enough. A change is needed. A change will come. Patience is key and I promise in time the Nigeria you deserve will be the Nigeria you deserve

We have the resources but our people suffer. Enough is enough. Citizens, every time we think we have measured our capacity to meet a challenge, we look up and we're reminded that that capacity may well be limitless. This is a time for Nigerians. We will do what is hard. We will achieve what is great. This is a time for Nigerians and we reach for the stars and we will propel this country to heights never seen before.

We should not be satisfied with past problems and solutions, we need a revolution and we need hope. You can have false science and false promises but there s no such thing as false hope. There is only hope.

God Bless Nigeria
