Fellow Nigerians, we need to praise Almighty God that with leadership problems that are affecting our progress and reputations around the world we still have Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie making us proud to be Nigerians.
ReplyDeleteChimamanda Adichie’s novel, Half of a Yellow Sun has generated about N280,000,000 unlike those unpatriotic corrupt politicians that are stealing the nation to the bone.
My strong advice to our young lady is she must never allowed disgruntled elements of society to lore her into politics. Former Adamawa Governor, Murtala Nyako is one of good examples. He would have keep his honour and respect for life staying in his farming activities. What about the great woman of yesterday signing in the World Bank now being rubbished by chicken brains of our society.
Leadership a great honour to people to fear God. Unfortunately, most of those ruling us today are rouges and thieves. They go to Churches and Mosques but traces of what religions teach.
