One Day, Two
Goals!
Nigeria has come a long
way in democratic governance. Sadly, we have little to show for the expensive
system. One of the reasons for this shortfall isn't farfetched. We are largely
uninformed about our roles, rights, and responsibilities as a people concerning
the government and the political office holders. The politicians also bank on
people's gullibility to rob them of treasures of generational worth. No small
thanks to COVID-19 that introduced Palliative as a nomenclature for community
support programs. Here we are 3 years after still padding lives with
palliatives that don't last some families a day! What if we unanimously demand
for sustainable infrastructures, industries, security, education, a standard healthcare
system, and a conducive ecosystem for growth and development? I'm sure that
we'd land in the Nigeria of our dreams in the shortest possible time. Japa
syndrome that is rifting Nigeria of human capital will disappear.
Summarily, to get
Nigeria working is a task that beckons all of us to responsibility. Let us
demand for accountability, transparency, dedication, diligence, and efficiency
from our leaders while we play responsible followership roles. Until then, we
may be feet backward to development that sustains a people and generation.
Fostering these tasks,
I engage a community of
people in Ibadan North LG today to enlighten them on the ideals of
representative government and their roles as people. Thereafter, I joined my
colleagues in the Civil Society Sector on an Advocacy Visit to the office of
the SA to the Governor of Oyo State on Political Matters. We had a fruitful
discussion and hopefully, a Nigeria of our dreams would spring from the
exercise.
I'm Adebukola Margaret.
I believe in the Nigeria Project that cares for all.
Play your part in the
development project.
I love you 😘
