THE NIGERIAN DREAMsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #african7 years ago

So Prince EA my favourite poet once said "Martin Luther King that man never had a dream, that dream had him" Well if we go by that logic; more than 57years ago A prisoner had a dream, and that dream birthed Nationalists like Nnamdi Azikiwe, Obafemi Awolowo, Mutala Mohammed and the other who walked alongside that dream and fought to free the prisoner Mother Nigeria from her foreign captors.........and the struggle for independence was won on October 1st 1960...
THE END
And we all lived happily ever after Right? Right?? WRONG!!!!
Are the labours of our heroes past in vain? Cause
I see Mutala Mohammed face on the Naira and he
looks a bit GREEN🤢
Freedom, our peace and natural wealth fought for
represented by the wave of that white and Green🇳🇬
Ironic though that peace waves at us but we turn our
ours backs on her and run into the arms of DISCORD
Skydiving through this we're headed for dangerous
waters who's gonna be the wiser and pull the RIPCORD
We have "LIMITATORS" sitting at the national capital
and call themselves our LEAD-ER
they say the future belongs to the young yet they won't let us take her by the hand and LEAD HER
Corruption!!!!! Don't even get me started about corruption....the decay that is eating up Mama Naija
Old and young, Leaders and subject alike
The politicians feel its within their rights to embezzle
funds
And the Young boys they want to BLOW
They wan MAKE AM FAST FAST
and wear original Gucci
so the join the YBWL or YBWP movement
YAHOO BOY WITH LAPTOP OR PHONE
And the females they're no better they don't want to
WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK(go Ri Ri)
They just lean on these boys...Whatever happened to Miss Independent
In 57 years we've had a civil war, Dictators, Naira devaluation, Boko Haram terrorist and suicide bombers,
Countless militants, Economic recession e.t.c
The great giant of Africa now seem a dwarf
We need a revolution We need change Positive change
I guess APC got it right on that on
" the change begins with you"
A wise man said "Be the change you want to see"
Nigeria needs new heroes
She doesn't need the AVENGERS she needs A JUSTICE LEAGUE
Nigeria needs new heroes
So Arise O Compatriots Nigeria calls
And we have got to obey and serve
With love,in strength and with Faith
So Help us God
GOD BLESS NIGERIA!!!
