This is a posting from May 2nd 2008 which I think is a good reading for a sunday morning.






It used to be that Anambra State led the way in Igboland and Nigeria in every aspect of life. That leadership role was eroded to bare bones after the Nigeria-Biafra war and the result has been devastating.

Mediocrity or even less reigns in everything. Nothing is questioned anymore. Everything goes. Gbute, Gbute, ochara acha, ochaghi acha " The consequences are there for all to see.

The wind of change is in the air all over Nigeria since the Judiciary stepped up to the plate and deliver for Nigerians. Nigerians are beginning to grasp the true meaning of DEMOCRACY and THANK GOD, Nigerians learn fast. That is why" Baba" is now receiving the treatment he dished out to others and his daughter is running and hiding like a scared cat from her own shadows. They (the crooks) will keep running . This is only the beginning.

Oil is selling at mind boggling prices and Nigeria still has to fly her President to Germany for emergency medical treatment. How many lives are lost daily from simple emergencies in a country that ranks high in global oil production? Citizens of Dubai and Kuwait live like kings from windfalls from their oil. Nigerians live and die like diseased rats daily and nobody seems to care.

The wind of change is in the air. It is the duty of all Nigerians and Ndi Anambra in particular, where it originated to keep it going, to actually accelerate it by getting involved in the process. Getting involved entails finding out what is going on in their local and State governments, asking questions and demanding answers. One does not have to go the representative's house or the Governor's house or office anymore. Many have cellular phones to use and call these individuals and ask questions, if not for themselves, for their children and children's children. It is a responsibility to get involved.
The phone numbers of representatives and governors are available. Ask around for them from local churches, traditional rulers, for example should have these information on hand. Call and demand answers. It is a duty. They are not being bothered. They are servants who, if left alone, will elevate themselves to lords and lord it over the people.

Ndi Anambra, Nigerians have waited long enough. As they wait, they must also play their part!!!
