As a Nation called Nigeria, diversity is our uniqueness and simplicity, whether we like it or not, acceptance of our overarching cultural ties must come to play in the realization of the dreams of our founding fathers.

For us to develop a strong and formidable force, we must come to the consciousness of our heritage.

God who formed Nigeria as a definite geographical territory has a strong will of sending information to the rest of the world in the proclamation of togetherness (unity), in the conception of our heroes past, to realize a Nation of multicultural ties, we must be in tandem with the state actors for unity and growth.

Nigeria is fast becoming encroached for disunity and disarmament, our leaders (government) ought to come to fusion and embrace the strong purpose of our founding fathers that made a fusion of indivisible democratic Nigeria under the will of the creator to be a sovereign state that’s free from internal and external aggression.

Nigeria of today, is being dislodged of the true principle and tenets of a democratic state, the essence of government is the utility wielded to the people, Nigerians of today are being jeopardize of their basic and social amenities.

Which way my father land?, how are we going to succumb the high-handedness of some cabals, is this the dream of our founding fathers?, the dream of our founding founders like Chief Obafemi Awolowo, the premier of western region was a formidable and comfortable Nation, if only Nigerians can be conscious of the diverse laws that affect our mode of operation and we cooperate with our political stake holders, then we will be in our eldorado.

The promise land we all yearn for is in us, promise land is a state of mind, for us to reach the reality of an insurgent free Nigeria, we must be conscious of ourselves, we must all join hands and fight the menace of insecurity by proper grooming of the younger generations, let the younger generations see the evil in disorderliness.

As a Nation, any vices our younger generations can not imbibe in their 20’s will be difficult for them to exhibit for the rest of their lives.

Our founding fathers like that of Nnamdi Azikiwe of the East, and Ahmadu Bello of the North has a strong will for the course of a united Nigeria, does our present day leaders have the will for our dear nation, rather it is self impoverishment.

For us to be emancipated from the shackles of subjugation, our representatives must be accountable to us in the realization of the dream of our founding fathers.

We are not just a Nation, but we are endowed with resources that will sustain us, but why are we suffering, we have what can sustain us, we are enriched with natural and human resources.

For the realization of our Nation from state adversaries, we must have a strong will for the understanding of ourselves, when we understand ourselves, we can harness our knowledge to team up for a broader and peaceful Nation.

Let’s take an analysis, if the adversaries of the Nigeria state are incapacitated to recruit their set by bringing in younger generations, then the present ones (older generations) will go into extinction, thereby leaving the younger generations behind in goodwill, those I refer to as the adversaries of the Nigeria Nation are those against the happiness and comfortability of the Nation, for example terrorists, bandit, abductors, corrupt office holders both in the private and public sectors.

In the uniformity and knowledge of ourselves, there in is embedded development towards a greater democratic Nation referred to as Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The collective good will of the people is what our Political office holders must harness in ensuring good and quality representation.
