We are the World!

I watch, have been watching with keen interest the events all culminating in the general elections in April in Nigeria. Really, it all looks like a drama or movie script. Old men who ought to sit back and hand over their 'good work' to the generation behind them are struggling and killing themselves over this 'national cake' that they have been eating and choking on for God knows how long ago.

And we, we, what have we been doing? Looking at them, watching them perform all their stunts now. Let them help sanitize the top, and exit it however they want to do it. We the youth are waiting, patiently, bidding our time and watching for the right time to launch into the mainstream.

Fearlessly we wait and watch, bravely we prepare and honestly we gird ourselves, ready to serve! We are the world!

I especially like this part.
While it might seem we (the youth, the future on Nigeria) ain't doing anything or are laid back, the truth i guess is; many a youth still believe in the Nikgerian project. Let's hope & pray when the time comes when the mantle falls on us (not necessarily by the choice of the old but, 'cos it's time) a prepared people we'll be.
Hail, to as many as believe in Nigeria. Cheers.
