See when America and the world had so much Respect for Nigeria and our leaders! This is July 1961 when Sir Tafawa Balewa visited USA. What really happened to this Nation?

This was when we had visionary leaders before the enemies if Nigeria took over. I was really baffled at the level of respect accorded to Nigeria back in the days, look at the way they stood up to applaud sir Tafawa Balewa's speech, look at the reception, look at the farewell speech.. I don't know what we did to warrant what we're facing but all I know is that we need to get it right come 2023 or else that will be all.
We need to emancipate ourselves from modern day colonial masters masquerading as leaders, we need to fight for the future and upcoming generation of this country, we need to reclaim our old glory, we cannot just afford to make same old mistakes or else Nigeria will be finished completely...

Nigerians please wake up it is now or never
God bless the federal republic of Nigeria

Having Hundreds of naira those years is like equal to having millions of naira in our generation.
The decay in the country has been gradual and not just of a recent, it's only manifesting more and more has it wasn't addressed.
It like an injury in the body.

“Nigeria will flourish again, tourism will still flourish in this nation again. The mineral resources we have not seen before, will rise up out of this earth.

“A time will come when evil people will find it difficult to survive here not to talk of anchoring power.

“Our currency will be strong again and our passport will have value.
Pastor, Dr Paul Enenche

Those that say Igbos started the problem are the same people who have been running Nigeria for over 50 years and took the problem to another level out of this world

There are various conflicts of opinions regarding those responsible for the present vegetable state of the once great giant of African but if the truth be told, we have all contributed to this course either in a way or the other be it as a family, religion, individuals, organization, society, rulers and politician, Schools etcetera.
What kind of products are this institutions producing today, what are today's quality of family upbringing in Nigeria, kind of belief system that our religions are establishing, standards of our organizations, culture in our societies, stand of our rulers, integrity of our politicians and the products of our schools.
Look at this and other things as well.
