It’s widely, globally and internationally-accepted that Nigeria is blessed and that Nigerians are divinely endowed and talented. This is a factual fact that cannot be disputed. As we all can see, in every sphere of influence and industries(music, football, religious/spiritual, to mention but few, we’re brilliant, wise, smart, intelligent, brave, and strong. So many world leaders, the likes of J.J.Rawlings, Nelson Mandela, Reinhard Bonke, Donald Trump, and many others have attested to this fact in the time past. The only reason we’re still where we are today as a nation is because we’re lagging in godly, faithful, selfless, purposeful, caring and result-oriented leadership, followership and management. Most of our leaders are so cruel, self-centred, heartless and horrible, while most of us, the followers, are so ignorant, myopic and callous,
The heartless and wicked leaders are busy stealing, embezzling,and diverting public funds to personal and selfish use and gathering wealth only for themselves and their unborn generations. At the same time, the callous and myopic followers are busy fooling themselves, selling their destinies and future for peanuts. Nigeria would have been the best country ever in the whole world if we all could utilise and maximise the same wisdom and smartness that we use in stealing, embezzling and committing crimes to navigate our dear and honourable country on the part of purposeful and result-oriented leadership, followership and management.
