I have been confronted many times over the years to abandon my hope for the anticipated greatness of our nation, Nigeria. Unfortunately, many of the cynical cynics are a mix of those who are dejected at the rungs of the ladder and those who are benefiting bigly from the system. They insist that our hope for a greater Nigeria is a pipedream, a false reality, a mirage, and a ticking time bomb waiting to detonate. Many of them also say to us that our nation is a zoological kingdom; its inhabiting subjects and their many reigning kings are animals in human skins.
I know I’m not in a shuttle between naivety and foolishness. I know my hopes aren’t driven high because I have never held a political position or benefitted a dime from Nigerian politicians and politics. I know it is true that today Nigeria is an island of wealth
