True to Society!


I must confess to you, as one who started out campaigning for a new Nigerian vision, promoting a belief in a greater Nigerian society, I have many a times given up faith in the Nigerian system, deciding to abandon ship and pursue fulfilment away from the shores of this country.
Don't blame me. Many of you will admit that living in this country and witnessing the mess that goes on is so frustrating. So many times I have had to question my faith in Nigeria. Even now my campaigning morale is low. I have decided instead to dedicate my thoughts and write-ups to studying the lives of people who have in one way or another ignited change in their respective societies. People like Ghandi, Martin Luther King, and of course, Obama.
Maybe in the course of studying these people, I will discover a renewed zeal to see things change for the better in this country. No matter what, I will still try to remain true to society!
