DEMOCRACY

 

 

Den don crazy like democracy, which is the government of the people by the people and for the people has failed to accomplish this goal because they refused to listen to the words of the gospel.

We all know that without God governance which is the government by the grown up men, by grown up men, I mean men with moral value, respect for the right of the people,  considering the public opinion as a form of injunction toward the development of the nation. Therefore, a nation govern not by the leading spirit of God but by that 0f an ordinary men, the nation will definitely grow, yes, but not to its gloat.

You see, taking a good look at our society today,  is like the reflection, the memory of the past when the middle says, the Africans die not of dirt, which is perfectly true. We rather live in the dirty environment, by dirty environment, I mean living in political subjugation , leadership incapability, mismanagement of resources, unsuitable government policies, high taxation, economic recession, disenfranchisement in government decision processes, insecurity. This is disease, and it is in this disease that we have been living in for so many years now, but yet we are not  deceased.   By not yet deceased I mean, not tired of corruption, oppression. Who truly are we?

You see, leadership is not wrong , but the ability to be a good leader is what calls for the norm, and the norm now is that; should I do or not. But this is not the meaning of leadership. The meaning of leadership should be, is either I serve or I serve, quite perfect. I know you are saying I am talking nonsense, and you too, your ideal might also be nonsense.

I want a government that will renovate our nation and rebuild it in a solid foundation, where people can confidently stand to say, I love NIGERIA . and I pledge to Nigeria my country, to be faithful, loyal and honest. To serve Nigeria with all my strength. To uphold her honour and glory, for the betterment of our tomorrow.
