When shall the much predicted and anticipated
peaceful and prosperous Nigeria for all come to birth? Is it until when
everyone that is alive now is dead arising from poverty, diseases, crime, hate,
religious bigotry and ethnic narrow-mindedness or public trust mismanagement?
The Inevitable Nigerian Revolutionary-change for a better
life and society many have thought will come with the change of government(s)
but it did not. At a time and calling for a revolutionary-change of mind and
government, one of the famous political leaders of that change mantra echoed:
“This is a revolution that transcends politics or policies; a revolution that
means far more than any change of government; a revolution that means a radical
reformation of values as they impact upon the social, economic and political landscapes
of our nation”
This statement was purported made
on the 29th September 2014 (5years ago) by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, a
businessman, formal Governor of Lagos State and National Leader of the All Progressive
Congress (APC). This is five years down the line, the change of government was
achieved and has been sustained but Nigeria or to say Nigerians have not become
better or revolutionalzed into a better life and society.
