Nigeria is the Best Country Ever

Nigeria is the Best Country Ever because it is a country with territory land that lies aheàd. The nation is an association of people cohesively united, not minding their ethnicity, religion and language with common vision and goals with a desire to form amalgamation. A nation with no common shared values.

Nigeria is the Best Country Ever by Dr Kenny Odugbemi

Nigeria is not a country, and we do not have true democracy and common shared values just like the USA- where there are shared values such as life, liberty, pursuit of happiness and where the Constitution through established institution had transferred power, and sovereignty to the State

Nigeria is like a state where at the state level, nations are held together under gun point, hence any attempt to declare themselves empowered will be held down with treasonable felony typical of MKO Abiola and Nnamdi Kaduna.

Nigeria is like a state under forced nationhood, not the will to cohabit. It has been running under forced nationhood for 64 years with forced regional amagalmation, hence there is a need to review our terms of engagement

As aforementioned, we now have protest inform of secession and separative group.

Condition assessment
We do not have devolution of power due to over concentration at the centre. We are yet to build a country of shared value. Our 1999 Constitution, which is widely disregarded, has given power to the state, leaving people in delusion under bondage of fear of guns, held under perpetual captivity at all times. This has over the years given rise to the following:
✓IPoB- led by Kanu: Seccession – Marginalization
✓Yoruba Nation: Igboho – Separationist
✓Arewa consultative forum: Terrorism, Boko Haram and Kidnappers for ransom
✓Farmer: Header (Fulani) clash

This presupposes the deceit of calling Nigeria a Country

My suggestion

Nigerian leaders in quantum are driven by consumerism, where they crave more at the expense of others without patience and contentment that can guarantee peace and fulfilment.
We all need patience and contentment as Nigerians, these terms are interwoven and adjuctively connected to overcome our protracted challenges of inequality, fairness and justice.

Solutions to our Challenges
Harnessing peace and contentment will enable us to overcome our challenges and obstacles, if we can be calm, persevere and endure for a while.

We surely as a matter of urgency need to build a strong bridge of good relationships cutting through all regions with no emphasy on ethnic and religious bigotry, appreciating our cultural diversity and through determination, resilience, agility, we will achieve more if we build what we can regard as a Country

Conclusion

We need to institute a forum to kick-start our restructuring mode to transform Nigeria as a nation, where there is true democracy, separation and devolution of power. We need restructuring and resources control, where there is a good measure of devolution of power to the state where people are empowered to contribute their own quota to the development of our country and work in progress mode to become a country called Nigeria.
