THE COUNTRY AND THE PEOPLE

O.O ABEL

Bible text :Psalm 122 vs 6 “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they shall prosper that love thee.”

1 Timothy 2:1-2I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

An adage says “a tree cannot make a forest that is just like you say no parishioner no pastor

Nigeria can never be without Nigerians as the four corner of the building cannot be called a church but the people that worship in the building.

If I should ask any of us to describe Nigeria with no doubt the comment or the description will say something like 

Nigeria is a corrupt country.

And if you ask anyone what the problem of Nigeria is? I know someone will quickly say "bad leadership”

It’s a pity that we are yet to realize that, you and I are the problems of this country called Nigeria. We never thought of what we can do for this country but rather always think of what we can get from the government.

I laugh when I hear people talking of western world like Europe and America ,so many Nigerians who has not been out of the country feels government do everything for people to enjoy free. The answer is NO

All that they enjoyed are contributed by the citizen through tax paying.

My question today is what are you  doing to make Nigeria great.

Everyone is selfish and greedy 

We rain curse on our leaders, called them bad names, we forgot

 1 Timothy 2:1-2I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men;

2. for kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.

I don’t know what you see. I see A:

Nigeria where there will be justice .

Nigeria where tax payer money will not be diverted to personal use.

Nigeria where national project funds will not be embezzled by few OGA at the top.

Nigeria where law enforcement agencies/all government official will perform their duties without having to take BRIBE.

Nigeria where electricity becomes stable.

Nigeria where positions in government places will be occupied by merit not by connection.

Nigeria where pastors will propagate the gospel rather than quest for money and fame.

Nigeria where cyber-crime will no longer be celebrated among families and communities .

Nigeria where politician will begin to think about the masses and the future of the country rather than sharing the national cake with Ghana must Go bags.

I see a new Nigeria 

God bless Nigeria

God bless your family.

I see a new Nigeria 

What do you see? 

please drop a comment as per what you can see about Nigeria
