That Change that i look forward to requires the contribution of every Nigerian. It must be both internal and external change. Internal change to how we project ourselves to the world and external as in how the world perceive us.
In the recent times we have suffered a great deal of negative perception in the eyes of the world due mainly to the way the world us. I have personally surfed series of it on a number of occasions; in the course of my travel around the world. To say that these hurts is to put it mildly.
It hurts, especially when you try to put in proper perspective, what the difference between you and the rest of the world is. As a people, Nigerians are generally very good- kind, warm and very friendly. A typical Nigerian would prefer to go hungry for his neighbour to have his meal. He will pay particular attention to the welfare of strangers often at the expense of his personal comfort. This is who we really are. These and many more good traits is what you ll find in an average Nigerian. If this is true, then why does the world see us diffrently, have we always been seen in that bad light, if not, when and how did it begin?
In terms of resources, most countries around the world do not have 10% of resources that Nigeria is blessed with. Yet life seems much much pleasant in these countries.
What is the way forward????
