We became one Nigeria from the year 1960 and the day the name “Nigeria” was issued by Flora shaw, from then we became one family forever. We are the people of this our democracy and we are the people of this our futuristic Nigeria as we are the people of our government also. Though not all of us were satisfied with our present governmental administrations but that will not give us a room to hate each other anyway.

        Nigeria is our country and our own, right from our basic school days we have been taken the oath of allegiance whenever we sing along with our National anthem added with the national pledge. Nigeria needs our unity, Nigeria needs our balance and fairness, Nigeria needs our equity, transparency and accountability as its citizens to re-birth a new and safe haven Nigeria. If we really need a better Nigeria, then it calls for our un-relentless unity in synergy with optimistic efforts and we can achieve a better and conducive Nigeria of ever seen before.

LET THE NEW AGE DAWN & MAY GOD BLESS NIGERIA MY MOTHER LAND, AMEN
