A warm regards to all my fellow steemians in this community, hope you all had a great day today.
It's a pleasure to partake in this nice contest on the topic: The great desire for my country.

As a Nigerian, I happened to come from a country that is richly blessed with so many natural resources like crude oil, natural gas just to mention but a few. Nigeria as a country is also with so many resources apart from the natural resources that if properly handle would have made this country one of the best in Africa and beyond. But sad to say that Nigeria is one of the worst nation a common man would ever come from. Nothing at all is working here in this country.
This is a country that where the government of the day can afford to buy official cars worth over 150 million Naira to each of their 105 lawmakers, this is a country where an out going Governor makes away with over 80 billion Naira and after a brief overview of the matter on body hears any thing about the issues again. This is a country that is richly blessed with so crude oil and natural gas but depends solely on other countries for refinerying because we can do have a single working refinery but because we cannot afford to but because here in we have leaders whose main goal and objectives is to drained the country resources dry and enrich themselves and their generation yet unborn.
So coming from such a country my greatest desire for my country is that someday someone who is honest is be given the opportunity to governed the people, that someone who actually has the best interest of the masses and that of the common man should be allowed to rule the people so that we will be free from the hardships that all of are currently experiencing.
It's might interest you to know that as am writing this contest, our country will be going on a ten day protest against the government because of the suffering the people are going through.

Another thing I would definitely desire for this that the the should be a seaport in my state, The project is long overdue. If this where to happened then there will be employment opportunities for everyone in the state and will go a long way in making life a bit okey and manageable for us.

Once again thank you so much for organising this contest and i will love to invite the following to join in this contest @abijos, @skinnyblack and @goodybest.
