Let's gist.
Before the Blockchain, I never wanted to have anything to do with the internet because, almost every successful Nigerian internet mogul was a certified 419.
We were so fraudulently good with the internet money making stuff that we defrauded a foreign bank, sold an airport and even impersonated the Central bank government. We were that good and along that line, these guys were the backbone of the politicians and every happening social circuit in Nigeria.
So, seeing we were that good, makes us claim the top spot of every criminal list in the world. We are known to be rich with abundant oil, but incredibly poor with no idea what it means to value our sovereign wealth. Fast forward to now, we have the most corrupt and well paid political leaders in the world.
The way these guys steal and loot the national treasury with impunity almost appears like they are in the sets of one of Hollywood's Mafia movies from the 70s.
We are well aware that these guys are bleeding the nation's treasury, but for some dumb and yet to be identified reasons, we are just not worried about that and we never make the move to stop them.
We are so good with waiting for God's time that they the criminally insane leaders know how to throw the crumbs at us, and when some of us try to be forward speaking, they are silenced with money or eternal bliss.
I have the right to wash this one very dirty troubling linen in the public, so feel free not to meddle.
I am a young Nigerian who is still being deprived of his rights to the wealth of the nation. We are denied access to the benefits that are meant for us. The educational, health, social and financial systems are all messed up and it just keeps getting worse. Leadership is managed by thieves and rogues. Decency is thrown into the gutters and the good guys never seem to last longer than their first 5 minutes in the field of morality.
We are are good in being bad and corrupt that we totally killed morality in governance.
Back to the issue of discuss.
It has been 2019 since 2017. For those in Nigeria, you will really understand. Everything from now till that day will be about the politics and the pains that comes with it.
Looking at the above picture, I see some categorization and the individuals therein are running for the number position in the country.
These various individuals are known to be serious and ready to take the Nigerian nation to the "promised land". We have been waiting forever and every time Moses comes, he suddenly changes to Pharaoh and keeps the people in Egypt.
Let's meet these guys.
Bear in mind I am just going to drop some few lines about them and expect that you will check them out and make your own conclusion.
Omoyele Sowore. This guys is the founder of Sahara Reporters one of the new age media organizations that was responsible for fishing out major corruption cases in Nigeria. The news media is said to have received over $175million in grants from the Ford Foundation and has huge followings in Nigeria and overseas.
Sahara Reporters is responsible for 87% of the whistle blowing on corrupt government officials since it was founded in 2006.Dr. Perry Brimah. This presidential aspirant is a Popular Columnists and Convener of ENDS (Every Nigerian Do Something) His platform is used to attack the corrupt systems in the governance and also help to bring about a movement that is getting all Nigerians involved in policy making and proposed national development.
Fela Durotoye. A motivational speaker, business strategist and project initiator. Called Mr. Nigeria, he is a popular figure among Nigerian youths, and is the president of the GEMSTONE Nation Builders Foundation, a non-profit, non-governmental organization aimed at training youths towards transformational change.
Ahmed Buhari. He is the founder of Skylar, Inc. a company focused solely on Information Technology (IT), Networking, Corporate branding, and Business consulting. with numerous awards under his belt, he has vowed to wrest power from the incumbent who happens to bear the same surname as he. His foundation Ahmed Bee foundation is helping youths collaborate and bring good to society.
Adamu Garba. Is the Chief Executive Officer and Founder of IPI Solutions Nigeria Limited, a leading cloud computing company, headquartered in Lagos. He is an outspoken Nigerian who was rusticated from the University for his movement to bring about equality between everyone irrespective of tribe or race affiliation.
Dr. Thomas Ikubese. A medical practitioner running under the National Conscience Party (NCP), said that he joined the political arena because he saw the need to salvage the country from hardship and place it on the level among global leaders. He is putting up a good campaign and looking to get a win in 2019.
The above are the youthful contestants most of whom are still considered to be too young to run for the presidency of Nigeria.
The political arena is heating up and we are beginning to see lots of billboards springing up, rallies and fake constitutional projects. I am sure we are all very familiar with the workings of our criminally insane politicians and "important" to them to win.
There has been an increase in the numbers of missing persons, ritual cases are being recorded on daily basis, shortage of money in the economy and the inauguration of "youth leaders and political thugs".
The story with my country is really a sad one. I see young people running after these politicians and will kill for just some few bucks. I am wishing that, at least 70% of the youths in Nigeria will say no to their bidding.
Will you be voting in 2019? Who will you be casting your votes for? Are you planning to cast the votes for the person who gives you rice or for the man who you see as being good enough to bring about some change should he get the chance to?
The choice is yours because, you have absolute power to make a difference.
