REMAKING THE NATION

It is high time for people everywhere across the length and breadth of our nations and continent of Africa to join hands in the work of re-making our nation. The only way it’s been done in America 221 years ago till now, South Africa, Bahamas, Germany, France, Japan, South Korea, everyone both big and small, king and subject, government and citizen, block by block, strength upon strength, rising and falling, errors and accuracy.

We all have every opportunity in history to make change happen. And that cannot happen if we go back to the way things were, it cannot happen without you and I. The civil right movement in America in the 50s and 60s was engineered by someone and the rest embraced it as the only means of survival but at the end it pays.

Out of the rubbles of the degenerated, subjugated people and nation, a new armies of revolution rose up to stop what was posing impediment for their growth, progress as an individual and as a nation.

We did not have any other nation or continent like the one we are in now, if you choose to live in America, Europe, Asia or Australia the colour of our skin cannot change therefore something massive must be done to the human content in our nation and in the continent of Africa.

Every single person has an obligation to this nation, every family has a role to play, Christian body, small and large corporation must rise to the challenges of the moment ‘remaking the nation’ if there is no genuine reason to rise up now to the challenges at hand let have this thought that one day you will be no more, your children and your children’s children will come, experience and grow in the same mess we complained of today.

Conscious efforts must be taken in order to salvage the present situation before it turns to unredeemable. Every thing goes from good to bad except a conscious effort is taken to preserve. Our children must be taught from home and in the school that the only way to survival in life is to take complete responsibility on how we live. Every citizen must live responsibly and shun corruption which all of us know as the bane of development in our nation, vices and ill attitude or act that can bring our nation down to a pitiable condition.

When I as an individual play my role, you do yours, families and schools perform their duties as a builder of society. Christian body (churches) should revisit their primary assignment of become salt and light of the world. Light bring illumination to a darkness prevailing environment and salt serves as a preservative agent.

Darkness is everywhere, corruption, armed robbery, stealing, cheating, examination malpractices, etc, are epitome of darkness we must infested the world with our goodness, love and care so that people can see the good work of God in us.

We can preserve, the wayward children, touts, drug addicts by rehabilitating them, give hope and succor to them, let them realize there is no tragedy than wasting away with crimes, vices and social ills. Zero tolerance for corruption, laziness and any other ill you can pick from the society today because this is part of what is needed to rebuild our nation and make it great again.

For our nation to develop and go beyond the present shambles, the attitudinal dimension of everyone must change. It is horrible that our leaders can not display high level of dedication to work, integrity, diligence and honesty we want, therefore we all have a duty of looking for proven men, men of integrity, men who respect the opinion of the citizenry and our vote must be for such men.

In every election we must take a bold step to decide the future of our community and the nation at large. It is the power of the vote and conducive and enabling environment make a vote count, so in every election at all levels, we must ensure we cast our votes, stay with our votes and make sure our vote count. This may not yield much fruitful result until we collective through our elected representative determine how power will transfer peacefully; if that is not done we will still be revolving round an inglorious position. The reason why we kill and destroy life and property is basically we have not determined as a people and a nation how to transfer power peacefully at every four-four year.
