Today Nigeria Celebrates here Independence day/freedom from Colonialism. As we celebrate I ask: Are we truly FREE? We have freedom from Colonialism, Yet we suffer from tribalism and nepotism. The crown and Britain are no more our masters yet political thieves are now our master. Diseases and pestilences plague our land, as health infrastructures are in ruins or neglected Judgments of the crown no longer bind us, yet our judicial system seem no more the last hope of common man. Our Political leaders appear worse than colonial masters, who treat their subjects as slaves rather than fellow citizens Patriotic Nigerians appear to be pathetic Nigerians The economy dwindling and the giant of Africa is loosing her value. Hope the  pride of Africa will not turn a shame to Africa? Which way Nigeria? Are we still standing or we are standing still? To turn the Nation around can begin with you You in your little corner and I in my little corner, let's seek to do that which is right ✍🏾     01/10/2023

FREEDOM BUT NOT FREE
