Do Believe

This is probably the most distressing time to be a youth in Nigeria.

It is also probably the most interesting time to be a youth in Nigeria.

To paraphrase Charles Dickens,

this is the best of times and the worst of times. Insecurity, poverty and hopelessness stalk the landscape.

At the same time, hope, opportunity and prosperity beckons. The pessimists will argue
that things are so bad that they will get worse. Nigeria is going to hell, he will conclude.

The optimists will say that things are so bad that they will only get better. Nigeria is breaking through
he will conclude.

Is Nigeria going to hell or breaking through?

I will like to invite the Nigerian youth to be pragmatic optimists.

I believe we are at the cusp of a great thing. Something is about to be birthed. We are going through the excruciating birth pangs. But we can go past the birth-stool or have a still-
birth. It all depends.
 
And

" what it depends on is youth optimism "

The only thing that has changed the world today is a small group of thoughtful individual who believes in the beauty of their dreams, all they see is GAIN not PAIN, optimism is there watchword n they did it.
 
I am not perfect and none of us is, but I carry a perfect idea in ma MIND which is ' Nigeria' can and will still for sure be a better place filled of peace n harmony!
Keep believing...
Never give-up.
