A NAME WRITTEN IN GOLD

The emergence of a GOLDEN NIGERIA is dependent on the preparedness of the Nigerian youth for a better future i.e. the era of a quintessential egalitarian society during which the common citizens will no longer wallow in the lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of wealth. If we can defy today’s repression, remain steadfast in the face of ‘national cake’ syndrome and stand tall for what is right, posterity would never forget us. We don’t have to wait till we become the occupants of Aso Villa before we could make a difference and therefore contribute our quota to the ‘archive’ of the generation that will give birth to the golden nation. What is required is a personality that exudes uprightness coupled with selfless service to humanity in all spheres of life.

         Our front-runners have failed us countless times. They are meant to provide for us a better future, and therefore write their names in gold. However, they have chosen the wrong path because of their questionable voracity for wealth. They want to parade fleet of cars, own houses and personal jets, wear the best of attires forgetting that all are vanity. All these possessions become somebody else’s the day the ‘body’s engine room’ finally shuts down. Isn’t it adorable to write our names in gold rather than bury it in mud just because of riches that can easily fade away? Our leaders have failed US- the present generation. We must not fail THEM- the upcoming generations. Our efforts to achieve the golden nation will forever be rewarded, even after our departure from the mother earth. Names like Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr, George Washington of America, Mahatma Gandhi of India, Nelson Mandela of South Africa, Obafemi Awolowo, Chinua Achebe and Gani Fawehinmi of Nigeria have no doubt been written in the purest form of gold that the world has ever churned out.

              We will have to follow the immortal advice of Mahatma Gandhi and be the change we wish to see in the world. It will be a huge shame on US if our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren still cry for the basic amenities of life in their father land. KEEP THE HOPE ALIVE.
