This morning a friend of mine told me he had the opportunity
of moving out of the country but refused because he has a plan here Nigeria. I
began to wonder and these came to my mind.
Some of Nigeria’s major problems are tension, high poverty
rate, insecurity, persistent criminal activities, poor electricity supply,
unemployment, lawlessness, injustice, mismanagement of funds, corruption, to
mention a few.
Under all these, you and I still live in our dear nation.
Though some have tried hard to abscond but efforts proved abortive while some
like me are just being patriotic, what we call suffering and smiling.
I see on a daily basis, Nigerians still move out of the
country in troops in search for a greener pasture. Its not the issue of
individual view as some people had suggested rather its the issue of whether
the economy is favoring you or not. You may be okay here in Nigeria living
fine but a more developed country might make you earn more and maximize your
potentials. The reasons why Nigerians are still in Nigeria is a mystery. Even
the learned and well-equipped in terms of resources are complaining of low
standard of living.
For me, am here because it is my home and it will for ever
be. Am here because it is still fair and useful to me, I hope it continues to
be.
What is your own? What is keeping you in Nigeria? Patriotism?.
