When we think that corruption is Nigeria’s biggest problem,our focus has always been on those in government.
But the same corruption and even state impunity is breathing everywhere.
Not only the abuse by security forces.
What about our judiciary.You can see the beautiful role of the judiciary during the last election in the United States of America.
The support they gave to institutions to support democracy.
The people who feed from political crimes are worse than armed robbers they are condemning.
When those in authority surround themselves with people who tell them what they want to hear.
And those formerly decent citizens become phsycophants because of their current position and pecks of office ,as the citizens mourn and die based on their advice ,they have blood in their hands as well .
When such special advisers twist the word of critics which is the beauty of democracy to please those in power,no matter how carefully such critics chose their words,they end up being twisted to please their masters.
One day they shall vacate such temporary offices .I know that there is a Master in heaven watching.
Occasionally, I also wonder how proprietors and proprietresses can be charging half a million naira for school fees and expect their teachers to survive on less than 40k per month.
How can you pay teachers like peasants and you expect them to give their best to the young minds they are moulding for the nation.You are part of the problem.I don’t even want to talk about what teachers who are civil servants are going through in the hands of government , whether in active service or in retirement.God is watching.
If the banks keep debiting customers wrongly and only apologising for any inconveniences without compensation.
Telling customers to fill forms and wait for days before crediting their accounts that is corruption. Can they accept that ,if such customers apply for legitimate loans?.
They keep declaring dubious profits.
If those who should talk keep quiet,
if the nation boils they shall all be cooked.
My prayer is that one day, I shall wake up and see no reason to be stressed out, heartbroken, tired , frustrated and confused about this nation.
So help me God.
