WHAT'S YOUR WEAPON?

Gandhi, the non-violent man who inspired India's Independence once said,

"You must not lose faith in humanity. Humanity is like an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty."

Similarly, we must not lose faith in our nation but rebuild her walls to hold it high. Let's show love to one another and put aside factors like religion or tribal differences that breed hatred. Prayer is inevitable but effort is also a constant.

Like John Kennedy put it,

"We need to stop asking what our country can do for us and start asking what we can do for our country."

Hence, Personal responsibility is key.

Statistics say our greatest resource is neither Agriculture nor Oil, but in our Human Capital Formation.
We have potentials that the world yearns for but we cannot harness it without Education.

Mandela said,

"Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world."

Mark Zuckerberg's weapon is Facebook.
Chinua Achebe's weapon was Literature.
Okocha's weapon was Football.

My weapon is Writing. What is your weapon?

What difference can you make with it?

Remember, there can be no great Nigeria without great Nigerians. Ignite your light and stop being a part of the darkness.
