First of all, let's forget about Election or new political office holder coming to make things better. Nigeria has been the way it is since the days of our father's and the bitter truth is; no one I REPEAT no one can or will make it better if we still continue with this Constitution and attitude towards governance that the present elected leaders are putting in, then there is our mentality as citizens too

I got to Abeokuta in the year 2003, and I started relating with friends since 2006 when I started playing football. And one thing I can tell you is, we are all still here 16 years after with no significant improvement or progress in our lives. don't quote me wrong, those who wants Education are educated, those who are into entrepreneurship are doing well and living a moderate lifestyle

Let me not forget those who couldn't withstand all it takes and have taken on Yahoo as a lifestyle, and then there are those who got enough of Yahoo and decided going against it. Not because they made enough money but for reason best known to them

And then, there are the simple lifestyle personality who are contented and just want to have the best of life. There are those who have also had the opportunity to travel out of the country to saner climes to pursue a greener pasture.

But when I look keenly, I realise we are not really what we are capable of as what we just do is make money for sustenance. It's difficult saving enough for you to even do something tangible with your life as there's always a governmental policy to bastardize your efforts and turn you into a novice in your profession. You begin to ask yourself if you are doing enough or there's something you are not doing right.

I tell you, surviving in Nigeria is not by Talent, not by Education, not by hard work, not by being just, not by being sincere;. Then how do you survive? what survival efforts can you put into making it the way you want?

I have seen amazing footballers who are even much more better than those we see on television rot away in the slums of Nigeria without any hope of ever making it again. I have seen amazing atheletes in other sports just go back to learning a vocation as their talent is being wasted by the system. I will definitely cast my vote for a candidate I believe in, but I am never going to have the assertion that He/she will make things better (They are all the same).

I have seen very brilliant chaps become obsolete jumping from one hustle to the other when there was nothing meaningful to do with their lives

I have amazing chaps who are trying really hard to make things better form themselves but the atmosphere and the terrain is simply not comfortable

I am honestly tired

What is NIGERIA adding to us as it's citizen?
