Dear Nigeria

From a Nigerian

By Victoria EnochPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

Dear Nigeria,

I understand your struggles and share in your triumphs. Our journey together has been filled with highs and lows, but through it all, we have remained strong and resilient.

As a nation, we have faced many challenges over the years. From political instability to economic inequality, we have had to navigate difficult terrain in order to pave a path towards progress. But despite these obstacles, we have continued to fight for a better future.

Our culture is one that is rich and diverse, with a history that stretches back centuries. From the bustling streets of Lagos to the serene countryside of Kano, there is so much beauty to be found in our country. Our music, art, and literature have inspired people all over the world, and our contributions to science and technology continue to make an impact on the global stage.

But we also know that there is much work to be done. Corruption, poverty, and insecurity continue to plague our nation, and it is up to us to work together to address these issues head-on. We must hold our leaders accountable, demand transparency and accountability, and work towards a more just and equitable society.

As a Nigerian, I believe in the power of our people to effect change. I have seen firsthand the incredible resilience and determination of our communities, and I know that we have what it takes to build a better future for ourselves and for generations to come.

We must continue to invest in our youth, providing them with the education and opportunities they need to succeed. We must support our small businesses and entrepreneurs, who are the backbone of our economy. And we must work to build bridges between our diverse communities, embracing our differences and celebrating our shared humanity.

I am proud to be a Nigerian, and I know that our best days are yet to come. We have weathered storms before, and we will do so again. Together, we can build a brighter future for ourselves and for our children.

Sincerely,

A Nigerian.
