It shall never be well with Nigeria!

Never
I say
Never
I swear
Both by Shango and Ogun
And other fiery
Spiritual agents
That judges human
On this firmament
And I swear that
Never
Not now
Or in the nearest future
No matter how it is
No matter how bad or well
That she treats me
I can never say or
Wish Nigeria
My country
Such a damnation
Or curse a
Beautiful country
That God has given
Us
Why should I curse my country?
A land full of opportunities
And beautiful people
I can never curse Nigeria
Or wish or use unprintable words To describe it
Rather
As I sat on this wonderful
Mountain of fortune
Located in Iyin Ekiti
With hundreds of Nigerian youths
From all over the World
Under the mobilization of
Discover Ekiti
By hiking Abanijorin Rock
A Rock of fortune
Which God has blessed Ekiti with
A Rock which has 7 caves
An under-the-rock tunnel
And inside its bowel is concealed A natural Amphitheatre
Which seats 450
I strongly prayed for Nigeria
I wish her a resounding
Happy New Year
My Country Nigeria
I so much believe in you
I have hope for your entity
Everything I have is you
You tossed me up and down
Yet I am so much in love with you
Most of us have double citizenship
I have you and you alone
The majority of us have packed our
Children abroad
I have no cause or means to do that for any of my children
All my children are brought up and trained in Nigeria
Some of us eat scholarships meant for indigents students
I have not abused that opportunity either for myself or my children
I have never shared greedily out of the national cake
No ill-gotten gain
I have served you in many capacities without abusing or engaging in nepotism
I have never taken any contract
Neither have I applied for one
I have neither eaten any extra – perquisites of office
I have neither involved my wife, children or relations in positions.
My children or I have never benefitted unduly from any post I have so far occupied either in form of contract, undue influence or official perks
My children are suffering too
I have two of them unemployed after having graduated some years ago from Nigerian Universities
Since I cannot bend the rule or manipulate undue influence to fix them
Forget the fact that I have facilitated employment for others
Where I have work.
I solemnly believe that you will be great
But Nigeria
I have also been praying
Praying very hard
That crude oil should dry up
That crude oil is a curse rather than a blessing
And because of crude oil
Is available
It has distracted us
From enhancing the other viable potentialities in you
I also pray
That if oil dried up
We shall have the full cause
To develop Tourism, Arts and Culture
As one of the alternatives sources of your earnings
Good morning
Nigeria
I can never wish you evil
I can never do you evil
I pray you to have peace
I pray you to live long
Welcome into a brand new Year
Nigeria
My great country
It shall be well with you
It is well with your Soul
Signed
