IT BEGINS WITH YOU

Nigeria’s image in Africa and the world at large has been in a mess lately ranging form corruption to all evil vices been know to man. The name alone sends shivers down the spin of anyone who hears it; the country has always been in the News more for the bad than the good deeds.

Nigeria is the largest black race in the world, the pride and giant of Africa. The name Nigeria should have been one that commands dignity and respect but today, the reverse is the case. Some Nigerians and the world in general do not want to be associated with the name as they see us as corrupt.

It can be said that the hope of Africa and the black race in general is built on Nigeria. Then tell me, when this hope is deferred, what does the future hold for Nigeria, Africa and the black race in general.

Nobody except a perverse mind would like the way things are going down in this country. It then behoves us as Nigerians to seek for ways to remedy the situation at hand.


Yes, we can’t deny the presence of corruption, fraud, failed polity, abuse for the rule of law, just name them but if the truth be told, I have contributed to the bad state of Nigeria, you also have done the same.

We must know the truth and in knowing lies our freedom. Since I have known myself and you have also know yourself to have contributed to the problems of Nigeria , I should retrace my steps and do good, you should retrace your steps and do good because the goodness we seek, the better Nigeria we seek, the better Africa we seek begins with us individually. IT BEGINS WITH YOU, IT BEGINS WITH ME.


All we need is a change in our mindset, self esteem, total re orientation and a change in the way we do things.

Lets awake from our slumber, the much needed CHANGE; IT BEGINS WITH YOU
