OPEN LETTER TO NIGERIANS: Wake Up Call To The Youths - Akeju Oluwatosin

A WAKE UP CALL FOR NIGERIANS

A Popular Adage says 'the greatest enemy of man is himself', which means man himself is his number one enemy. Alot has been said about the hardship Nigerians have been facing, looking deeply into the Economic Class Nigeria belongs to which is a 'Democratic and Free economy' one who have the understanding that the Power is in the hands of the people.

So many times I weep for my Country, a Nation where the Present Generation has no hope or promise ahead, it pains me to know the fact that our youth based there hope on a government that cares only for themselves and their Offshores account.

So many President has come and go yet the messages remains the same, telling us Nigeria will be great and things would get better. Let me remind you that if the body is sick the expectation is for it to recover after a while, but when the sickness keeps deteriorating and keep getting worse people shouldn't expect an instant recovery.

Have we ever asked why they come to us during campaign and promise us thousands of jobs, good roads, constant power supply etc, and yet when the power they seek gets into their hands what they do is to lay off workers, embezzlement the funds meant for power supply and good roads. How would they know the state of our roads when all they do is fly in the air, how would they feel the impact of irregular power supply when all they do is allocate millions of Naira for their Generator Plant Fuel.

Wake up Nigerians! our hope is not in our Government, our hope is in the power in our hands which is our votes and rights as a citizen to say know No to Policies of the Government that is only meant to enrich themselves. What we need is ONE voice!

Let us rise and say NO to constant increase in fuel prices, Let us rise and say No to constant Laying off of Workers, Let us rise and say No to Irregular payment of Salaries.

We shouldn't leave it in the hands of few to say No through demonstration, it concerns us all, with one voice we can reject any leader if he is not doing what we want.

I remember the last election in my area where people were being given just a plate of rice and N200 to sell there vote, please wake-up Nigerians this is the future of our children we are eating, don't sell your right as a citizen for a plate of rice not even for a bag of rice. Your right as a Nigerian has no price!

Lastly before I drop my pen, every youth is born with a purpose and in you is a special skill and gift God has deposited in you to achieve that purpose, let us stop being used as Political thugs, ballot Snatcher, and selfish interests protest. You are unique and special in your own capacity. Develop your skills and concentrate more on your dreams.

God Bless Nigeria!
