One hundred years ago this great nation was born. Not by choice, but
it was destiny.
Nigeria, Africa’s Giant, filled with diversity in culture,
beliefs but unified under our ‘green-white-green’.
United we stand, divided we fall. Giants can be easily seen
from afar. Nigeria is on the world’s stage. Together we can rule strong but
hate will rot us all from the inside out. The enemy is out there, not within,
if we kill our brothers, on the day of real adversity who will fight with and
for you? When no one is left, we will be destroyed by a finger flick.
Our diverse tribes are our beauty! It shows of our glory.
Everyone of us has value, we need to build each other up. The strongest athlete
is one who is completely healthy in every part of their body.
Internal deception, internal ignorance & internal hate are
foolishness.
Our diverse beliefs show our ability to accept change.
We are giants on the worlds stage, the world is watching,
waiting. They will laugh if we fall, they will cheer if we stand. We can choose
to be a light.
It’s said that choices determine the results, and this has
been proven in your very life.
Then, we can choose to change our fate. We can choose to
stop eating the poison being fed for decades past. We can choose not to cheat
for personal gain. We can choose to genuinely offer help to those in need. We can
choose to use our influence to build our communities. We can choose to combine
forces, manpower to improve our businesses and our future. We can choose to
ignore the sound of our neighbour’s last names and see every one as
green-white-green. Brothers & sisters with the same goal – to have a better
tomorrow. We can choose to make our leaders accountable.
We are ONE people. We
are the same people. We have the same goal. We are green-white-green. We are
Nigerians. We are 100. There is a real enemy
and it is not within us. It’s in the
ignorance & poverty killing our people.
We must protect our legacy.
We must protect our unity.
We must protect our Name.
#Naijaforever
