Nigerians can actually fight
for what is right.
Never have we lacked the will
to do so, what we lack is continuity, the spirit that pushes us to continue
that which we have started.
I remember vividly, how most
of us left our homes during the removal of fuel subsidy to protest with one
voice.
Soon it transformed into an
avenue for celebrities to re-register themselves into the minds of the people,
and yes the media was there to help.
Only that this time, they didn't have to pay,
they were advertised for free.
And right before our very eyes,
our protest transformed into a carnival, by the time the party was over, we
were left with increased fuel price and there was absolutely nothing we could
do about it.
But do we ever learn?
Over four month ago, some
group of girls were kidnapped from chibok by terrorists, who parade themselves
as Boko Haram and been who we are, we saw an opportunity to battle again. We
came out in one voice and sang,’’ BRING BACK OUR GIRLS’’, till everyone was
willing to listen.
Again some celebrities saw
another opportunity to re-ignite their flames, while some politicians saw an avenue
to point accusing fingers. Using the medium,’’ BRING BACK OUR GIRLS’’ to
actually bring back themselves come the next election.
Where are they today?
How come we have suddenly
become quiet?
Where are our celebrities?
Why can't we at least see
this one to the finish?
#BRING BACK OUR GIRLS
If we give up on them,
they'll have no choice but to definitely give up on themselves.
