The rate children in Nigeria are taking to the streets has become quite alarming and something needs to be done to help children overcome this sad development by the Abuja government. Economic hardship and bad governance are fast combining to exacerbate the condition of children in the country. The Nigerian-child is fast becoming deprivable socially thus having their future hanging in the air. This is the air that accounts for nothing and gives nothing in return to children in the country. It is the air that the Nigerian-child breathes.

Nothing from the government seems to favour the children in the country. It is doubtful whether there are official feasible policies that are geared towards the well-being of the Nigerian-child. It is also a country that majority of the Non-Governmental Organizations are in pursuing political clean slates in the country thus relegating the well-being of the children to the background. Until many of these groups and associations decide to stand to stand up children, the future of these children is very unwelcoming.

In 1972, the then Nigerian military leader, Gen. Yakubu Gowon inaugurated the National Stadium located in Surulere, Lagos. In what was known as a sports fanfare, he had opened a new phase in the history of sports in the country referring to the stadium as the nation’s sports village. The stadium has hosted many important tournaments significant to the nation image and international figures that have brought joy to the people.

That nation’s sports village is today a national embarrassment to Nigeria and Africa. Portraying Africa as where setting up public projects was not the case but the ability to maintain them which usually results in shame. Nigeria is the giant of Africa in this regard. In Nigeria, policies of the leaders of that very country are often shrouded in mystery because they are never understood, much less beneficial. The world is today missing actions in the stadium courtesy of the Federal Ministry of Sports. No one remembers that at was inside the National Stadium, Lagos that the nation won its first ever African Cup of Nations in 1980 exactly 20 years of its independence from the British.

I have on my own identified the worst enemies of our country Nigeria and as it is said problems known have certainly become half solved so the earlier we tackle these challenges, the better for our dear country, Nigeria to move ahead progressively. Treat these enemies with neglect to your peril. As I have observed, we need to address them with such speed as that of light.

Bad leadership- The first of these enemies is bad leadership. The country Nigeria has never had a good leader since 1960, and this jinx is continuing until the record is broken. It would appear that none of the nation’s leaders was ever prepared for the assignment of leading the teeming innocent citizens of the country. Only a bad leader can effectively solve the seeming intractable challenges confronting the nation. Bad electoral system- Only the unborn will turn blind eye to the kind of outlandish and odd electoral system that continue to produce our kind of leaders. Election in Nigeria has become a selection exercise and if nothing is done a day will come when only our politicians will go out in the rain and vote themselves in. This is the number two enemy of the nation. Don’t ask me for solution. Corruption- You know it better than I do. Corruption has eaten so deep into our system that “egunje” has become officially recognized in our political dictionary. No sector of the country can assume ignorance of the “settle me” syndrome. We see it happen everyday but what we don’t see is top political office holders going to spend at least 5 years jail term for not executing contracts awarded to them. We see only part 1 out of several parts remaining in the days of Ribadu but all that is history now. Politicians- Politicians are the fourth worst enemies Nigeria has. A Nigerian politician can afford to spend several millions of naira celebrating his victory. Why? Because he now has an opportunity to steal money. And when he thinks that his party is not doing impressively after bagging a position, he deserts to another party commonly PDP as seen in the case of Bauchi State now. He never surrenders the mandate given to him as a member of his ex-party but absconds with it.   The Niger Delta region- This is the beautiful region that has contributed to the development of the nation since 1956 when oil was first discovered leading to the development and continued growth of cities like Abuja and Lagos and feeding the personal pockets of the nation’s leaders. However the region is in neglect today as the people cannot fish from their waters, farm on their lands and breathe clean air from their homes. The people have also protested this very violently which is unfortunate though leading to fall in oil production. The region is ranking fifth as the enemy of the nation because if not properly addressed by the FGN, the future is blink. Frequent electricity failure- Interestingly, the nation cannot supply its citizens with adequate power supply. It has therefore come to a stage the people only see with “atukpa,” candles and lanterns. We are back to the dark ages. Believe me if I tell you that a 10 year-old child born and brought up in the country may not have seen electricity stay on for 6 hours. Such is the situation of the country in terms of power and energy. Aristocrats- Many Nigerians can be effectively categorized in the family of nobility in the country today. These people have ruined the nation with a lot of money they have stolen from the country and parade themselves as wealthy and famous individuals while the ordinary Nigerians groan in the streets with no streetlights, good roads, water and even food to mention just a few. We know, see and read about them on daily basis even as we are dying. A portion of the country- This issue needs to be discussed if we must move forward as one nation with one destiny. A section of the country has ruled us for many decades with the nation remaining stagnant. Out of a total of the 13 leaders that the nation has produced, this very section of the country has produced about 9 of these rulers yet ideas have not taken the nation beyond the deserts to the Promised Land. In fact, there are people of other ethnic groups who ordinarily should be having the same right to rule the nation but have been relegated to the background. Education system- This system like ones in the country is getting ruined by the day. With this sector now sold to private hands and public universities increasing fees almost on daily basis, only the children of the rich can now afford to educate themselves. Something drastic must be done to correct this anomaly. Bad policies- Bad policies not aimed at benefiting the common man in the street is usually the agendas of the nation and when these agendas are high sounding not one sees the light of the day. The situation has become such that when our leaders announce their agendas for us we only smile and not take them into considerations Read the rest of this entry »
