Are we free or still slaves?
if you ask me I will say freedom is a luxury that even the so called free world don't have.
In Africa mostly my country Nigeria, the independence of 1960 is not what they say on their textbooks and perverse constitution.
All our leaders did was change the face of slavery as we know it.

A lot of people still think we are independent which I don't agree.
What happened in 1960 was that white slave masters were changed for black skin slave masters (Fellow country men).
The looting that was being done by our colonial masters not minding the state of the people is now being done by our very own 😢

Mother Africa is blessed with blessing unimaginable, my country Nigeria possess minerals like no other country out there. And you know that their greatest and cheap blessing from God is their vast fertile lands on which any plant is give life.

Don't tell me that the present politicians are corrupt, Nigeria has been corrupt before, on and after the so called independence.

Do you know that the horse in our coat of arms means dignity?
do you also know that in the eyes of the world we Nigerians are nothing but scammers and our crafty politics and politician have extol us in shameful records.

Last year the whole nation craved for restructuring! Hahahahahahhahahhahahahahahahah I laughed and told those agitators that it won't be possible. Like I said: restructuring will not benefit the slave masters more it will end up taking food from their table so they won't allow it.

After years we as a country have celebrated golden jubilee still we as a country are nothing but beggars 🤥.
*we are a nation that consumes a lot and produces nothing.
Our government irrespective of the millions of dollars they've stolen go from country to country begging for aid. Signing different deal that no one can tell what was given in exchanged for the deal.
you can't tell me they gave you two gun ships for free get serious we are not fools.

There are government official exploiting even the internally displaced persons in the areas of this country were is there unrest. The IDP are being raped and no water, food or shelter for them what a shame.

people are arrested for stealing little or nothing while their real crime is not theft but poverty because if they were rich or know someone who is rich, they will elude the law.

Diversification of economy
The crazy government have now decided to diversify to agriculture 😂 please don't make laugh. This is another ploy to distract the masses and make the poor go to farm for them.
if these people are actually ready to diversify to Agriculture they will give lands to people to do that but they are just making noise on TV and other outlet.

I don't blame this crazy government as much as I blame all these foreign countries who can't tell these guys the truth but still keeps sponsoring this government to have more to steal.

Guys don't get me wrong OK am not asking for special favours but we all know that life is like a wrestling match.

Everyone has what they are fight for: an heavy weight belt or a light weight belt.
Am not asking for favours am just saying the match at least should be fair and when I will, it should show in the prize I receive is it too much to ask for?

What's the history of Nigeria

People are wondering why Africa is far behind in progressive advance in such a way that country who gained their independence same time with Africa or after Africa gained theirs are now far ahead in all ramification.
I will tell you why!

1— We are ruled by men who are close to their grave:
Africa is a could be better or even best but the voices that rules us are outdated.
*what do we expect when a nation that should be ruled by a young mind bubbling with ideas is been hijacked by old, grandfathers

am surprised that people are shocked that this men are involving, mistaking or claiming our national assets as theirs and placing it in their will for their unborn children.
Go round Africa hilariously Nigeria you will attest to what am saying. Politicians want to die seating on public seats. They even want to be buried there.

2—we applaud and celebrate thieves:
in my country thieves are the once winning the awards while hard working young men and women are the doing the job with little or no pay most times.

There are workers who are being told month in month out: "thee us no money we can't pay salaries government is broke".
Do you know despite of all this no governor has ever in the history of all this no-money-nonsense has ever gone home without pay.

No politician tells him self cock and bull story when it comes to their salaries. But to the poor masses they cook all manner of rubbish. Even their over estimated allowance is still paid in full.

do you know that in my country people who served the country till retirement are being owed salaries and in time past die on long queues in the sun waiting to be paid.

This government run fleets of cars well fed far more than the masses with pms and motor engine oil which is always renewed when due.

there are senators in the house of assembly that can't quite the national anthem, strange right? 😞

so funny that a president who doesn't even know how the youth are scrapping to leave, would go on international platform and say we are lazy as youth
Your son was able to afford millions of natural power bike, did he work for the money?
lazy president
3—
can corruption stop in Nigeria yes! But it is too cost for these politicians to afford

they are now addicted to the extent that their salaries and allowance which comes huge stack of naira not is still not enough for these people.

Lastly no matter how much you steal, your grave when you die will still be 6ft and you will be referred to as late and will be spoken of as a past tense no matter the loot 😂
