THE MAN IN THE BOY

The man in the boy
I was shocked when my son of 4 years old came back from school to tell me a poem taught in school.

It goes this way
"Nigeria is my country
A place full of joy
A place full of pleasure
Where Daddy and Mommy was born
No matter what is happening
Nigeria is my country
Let's join hands together to build a better Nigeria
And Nigeria shall be great again"

I heard this poem and ask him to say it again.
He was so proud to be a Nigerian.
I can see the joy in his face as he say "Nigeria is my country."
He don't know what is going on in the country now, he don't know how I trek someday to pick him from school, I don't know how things are costing in the market.
All he know and believe is Nigeria will be great again.

You will hear him saying repeatedly "no matter what is happening Nigeria is my country".

Injustice in the governance where the rich oppress the poor, the tax the poor masses to enriched their pockets. They set the guilty free and punish the one that is not guilty. That is the country that we are presently.

I join him to pray Nigeria should be great again.
