Whats happening to my beloved country?

Nigeria is my country and i cant deny it. I'm proud of this great nation and i can only hope that things will get better.
The strike, the unpatriotic spirit of those who are meant to represent us, the never retiring, over aged leaders who never think they have enough, the corrupt and well respected Bank chiefs, the non existent projects in some parts of the country. Well today, i just came to tell you what i think about this country.
     There's alot of talk about the wayward youths and how terrible they are. No doubt this is true but lets face it. They accuse my generation of being the ones who have spoilt the world and talk so much about the good old days. Well, i'd like to ask, are the past Military Heads of State in my generation? Was Abacha in my generation. All the stolen oil money in this country, was it stolen by anyone who is my age mate or in my generation? If my generation is really spoilt, i think it boils down to the fact that many of us were not properly brought up...is that now our responsibility? How old do you have to be to retire and let the younger generation take over. Well, in Nigeria the youth are the leaders of a non-existent tomorrow, because tomorrow never comes in Nigeria. They talk so much about rebranding. I guess they should start rebranding from the top. They start corruption from the leadership and rebranding from the masses. Who actually needs rebranding? Is it the poor and homeless children on the street whose existence has no effect on our international image or the leaders who out of corruption have tarnished the image of my beloved country. Nigeria is sick. Just like putting on clean clothes cant heal the sick, rebranding will not change the decay and corruption in the heart of some of our corrupt leaders.
      Not withstanding the wave of corruption sweeping across the nation, there are still a few people who believe that a good name is better than ill gotten wealth and integrity is still a prized virtue. I want to congratulate these few people and encourage them to continue, as we all join hands to redeem my beloved country.

LONG LIVE NIGERIA, my beloved country!
