Something Serious

I dont claim to know much about world politics or even national politics but with the way things are even a dumb dumb on politics will have an opinion, this is because things have become serious.
The other day i was reading the paper and saw how governors of a particular Nigerian political party 'shunned' a security meeting with the president of Nigeria ( who is from another political party by the way), and even though said opposing party refute claims that they shunned the meeting, rather they say ' they were told meeting had been cancelled', I wonder why with the way things are in Nigeria, people are still able to see reasons to be divided as opposed to be united.

For crying out loud this is a nation in crisis and yet our 'leaders' are busy playing 'politics' when serious matters are on ground!

It amazes me that are so called leaders, can not see past their noses, in this case past their 2015 ambition, their citizens are dying, their states are under severe attack by assailants, these leaders know nothing about (yeah! right). Instead of coming together and putting aside party fractions, and whatever else is an issue and finding a lasting solution, they either do not invite certain people, or ignore the invitation of certain people. it is tottaly absurd.

When will we as a nation wake up, and truly say enough is enough! When will the day come, when our vote, trust and integrity will not be bought?

Where are the Fela's, Ojukwu's etc, those who will stand up and DO, SAY something, regardless of how 'unpopular' that will be . Instead you hear people  either cursing Nigeria, or wanting to check out of the country, or dreaming of getting into government to eat their own 'entitled' share of the national cake.

When most people get together, youths, 'young' adults, they often reveal what their passions are and sadly most times it has nothing to do with creating a movement to fight these corrupt leaders, these people who consider us very daft, and very gullible.

I am deeply troubled by what i am seeing, hearing and experiencing. I ask myself what can i do? where do I start from?

God I am ready.
