Sadly some of us still see the world through the 'map' narrative- distorted views that tend to make us celebrate or fight for the status-quo, the same reason for persistence of poverty, mass unemployment, stagnation, insecurity and instability. The events of today vindicate us on a daily basis. Every where we direct our search we get the same answer; 'Restructuring Nigeria' is the solution to the dilemma we face; ruthless pursuit of self-interests. We can live with it or we change it, or we still wallow in the narrative; why bother to change it, the very distorted views of the power grabs; ruthless cabals with a 'distinct lack of conscience'. They don't believe in growth for all. Instead of investing for the future, they prefer to invest in guns/security for control. These people are not our friends and cannot be trusted with our collective future. What's the alternative? Ordinary people need to be aware of this peril; real and present danger that now stare us in the face.
Read this blog regularly to help change your world view. The status-quo does not hold any further promise of change. It's our desire to provide ordinary people with abundant evidence of state failure so that they can be on the right side of history. Choose freedom not fear. No moral cause just a conspiracy to seize power. Think smart. Reject authoritarian rule. Reject political bribery. Demand Restructuring . Vote for committed democrats that will guarantee inclusive society, that's the future. The future is no longer a return of the society to the primitive state where life is 'short, nasty and brutish'. We can change the way things are. Now we have enough reasons to be worried.
