When will Nigeria be great? When will our children stop hawking packaged water along the highway? When will our Leaders become sensitive to people's plight? When will I be able to move around in the middle of the night without being molested by armed robbers? When will our youths stop rushing out to look for the golden fleece? When will our families start eating three meals a day convenientlty? When will we no longer have corrupt public officials? When will we stop using alternative power generating plants in our homes? When will the Dollar be equal to a Naira? When will we all become patriotic? When will ethnic conflicts be a thing of the past? When will poverty become history? When will unemployment be wiped out? When will our children be happy to be born a Nigerian? When? When? When we all decide to be truthful and patriotic, remembring the work of our fathers. « return. |
