Nigeria has been a country that has all it takes to be rich and be one of the best Country in the world but even with all this potentials, there are lot of missing piece in this great country. These missing pieces has been missing for a long time , even though it was not this worst . Let me use this illustration to explain what I meant that it wasn’t this worst. “ When you have a wound, it won’t get wide immediately but the longer it stays on you, the longer you didn’t take care of it well the more it decay”. Nigeria situation is a decayed wound that needs a healer to heal these wounds.
Further, some of the causes of the wound decadence is, lack of unity as country it takes a united country to make a difference. A country divided can’t get anything done just like a broom when a broom is in a bunch it sweeps everything clean but separated it even worsens the dirt. The very moment we were given independence is the same moment we started getting it all wrong fight for power, greed for money, coup-de-tat after coup-de-tat assassinations, some of the people who are supposed to make the right decisions for us by amending a good constitution that will protect and guide the people but, they turned the constitution into a their personal diary amending to favor them and their family members.
Furthermore, abandonment of resources has a great influence on this wound, as a country try it takes dedication, it takes training to make the right path because this entails a lot of people in this country, even the so called resources we have, we still lack this resources and suffer for what we have in abundance due to what the lack of training,not being independent as a country , has caused a lot of damages in this beautiful country.
Above all, lack of plan;a journey with no destination is destruction, there is a need to be a better structure to make a difference in the nation even the country itself doesn’t have a structured plan and this has really affected the country because different human, different plan and this cause the imbalance in the structure of the country . “Jack of all trades, master of none “this has been how this country has been operating.Different plan but master of none.
The chronic wound keeps bleeding; we await the great leader that will put these things in place and do it the right way, a leader that will amend the plan and embark on a journey that has a destination, a leader that can heal the bleeding wound. Nigerians! Who is the candidate?
