These Men are Wanted! Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by rotexonline, Nigeria Sep 5, 2003
Globalization , Culture   Opinions

  

These men are wanted: men and women who are ready to spearhead a revolutionary change in the history of Nigeria. Men and women who believe the clusters of problems in Nigeria can be solved. Men and women who believe that being a Nigerian is not a problem, but who look to make a positive impact through positive (not destructive) contributions to the development of Nigeria.

These men are wanted: Men and women who believe that Nigeria's misfortune does not stem out of colonialism but rather out of corruption and mismanagement. Men and women who now believe that corruption and mismanagement can be stamped out of Nigeria's daily dealings. Men and women who believe that Nigeria can claim a strategic position in the world puzzle called the global village, not by restoring democracy in war-torn countries alone, but by innovations and ideas and visions and good governmental policies.

These men are wanted: Men and women who believe that leadership is all about service and service is all about giving one's best for the development of the nation. Men and women who respect the opinions of the highly affected but rarely considered. Men and women who practice a democracy of the people.

These men are wanted: Men and women who believe that political office is not an investment nor an opportunity to stash dubious money in Swiss bank accounts.

These men are wanted: Men and women who believe in the reemergence of a new and dynamic Nigeria, where everybody matters. Men and women who believe that Nigerians can once again be proud of being Nigerians. Men and women those are bold to step out and lead a pack of one hundred and twenty million Nigerians to the promised land without selfish purposes and desires.

One of these men and women is you and me. Develop yourself in order to develop others. The whole world is waiting for us.

They are out there
Adeyege Abayomi Ebenezer | Nov 2nd, 2003
There are men and women with this vision out there, but in this country of ours, the poor security of the country amazed every one including me and you.



We can see them...
Afeez Adeyemi Adisa | Nov 13th, 2003
Your article is great and I wish to implore you to keep going... Meanwhile, these men and women of vision are already in the country and there is no need for us looking or searching for them at all. the only problem we have got in Nigeria is the problem of how they will get there... Are Nigerians ready to vote for those that will not buy their vote? Are we going to vote for those with vision and not the visionless...? Remember! Gani Fawehinmi contested but people failed to vote for him because he couldn't buy their vote...
