NIGERIA!!!!!!! ANY FUTURE FOR THE YOUTHS?

Just sitting here wondering and pondering if there is any reasonable future left for my country Nigeria! A lot is going on and no one seems to care.
Kidnap, money laundering, prostitution, rituals, fraud and every other evil you can possibly think of are the order of the day now. Couple of days ago the Power Holding Company of Nigeria (PHCN) went on a strike and the whole nation was in a blackout, one can imagine how much was lost economically and otherwise, now wait a minute, we’ve never had stable power supply in and around the country, people and businesses depend on alternative power supply to get by. During the Obasanjo administration we all were aware of how much money was laundered all in the name of restoring the power sector to a perfect standard, commissions where set up, cheques were signed and the job…… was NEVER executed. A panel was set up to prosecute the offenders, but we all know how such panels end up thanks to the corrupt executives, legistives and judiciaries we have as leaders, they all end up with nothing and these ludicrous culprits go free as honored members of the nation.
Just today, I read in one of the online papers, “FG invests $12bn on power, rail” and I can’t help but ask “who are they fooling again?” . What I think is this, they are embezzling all the money they can to sponsor themselves in the forth coming elections. The FG claims this administration is doing all it can to alleviate poverty but all I see is these old shameless men enriching themselves and leaving the country in a total state of chaos.
In other news, the FG released N100m trust fund to female politicians, now what the hell is that? (Excuse my French)!!!! We have lots of children on the streets of Nigeria who can’t afford an education, to talk more of quality education (which is dead and almost buried). Now what do female politicians need a trust fund for? Is it for expensive laces or to lure young men to bed? I can’t see any positive thing any female politician past or present has done to help alleviate the sufferings of the common man, instead they travel abroad to get breast implants, liposuctions and buy the most expensive jewelries. I honestly felt as mothers, they’ve got better sense of reasoning than the men, but no they are worse.
Let me talk about the education sector too, education in Nigeria is as good as education in rural areas….. *sorry but true*, the only good schools left anywhere in the country are the private schools. A year hardly goes by without incessant strikes from the education unions in Nigeria. No books or learning facilities are in place in government schools in Nigeria and even if money is approved for projects that will benefit the Nigerian kids today and in the future are given to the appropriate quarters, the money goes into their pockets out of greed and no one cares how or what went wrong. 75% of common men in Nigeria can’t afford to pay their wards through private schools in the country because of the exorbitant prices, the high and mighty send their wards abroad to get the best education and allow the common man’s kid to be at the receiving end of their malicious decisions. Millions of naira is embezzled in the name of power (electricity), national reforms, rebranding and a whole lot but nothing is being done to revive the educational sector in Nigeria. Knowledge and information they say, is power, but the future looks bleak and unpleasant for Nigerian kids today.
To end my note for today, is our silence helping or making things worse, when will we wake up to speak for ourselves and get rid of all our grandpas who have turned our nation into a home of shame and despair?
NOTE; feel free to correct my errors and also make your comments!

IS IT RIGHT?

I went through a pretty difficult time coupla months back, trying to decipher wat i really wanted from the relationship i was in. It all seemed perfect, but I knew there was a problem, I loved him like my own skin, protected him and did my best to make it work, but we didn't share anything in common except our love for football. i knew he cheated twice (de times i was indeed aware) but I also forgave and kept loving, BUT was I right?, was I too good? was I too quiet? these are questions I keep asking me. I've heard folks say, "fight to keep love" but I aint no fighter! I'd rather love........ so i let go @ a point, cause no matter how deeply i loved this guy, we just weren't meant to be. its been 3months now, I'm relieved I let go even if I still get the nostalgia feeling of been with him. Couple of hours back my kid sister sent me a text saying she just broke up wit ha boyfriend of over 5yrs, and I'm wondering what went wrong? I asked her and she says she cant cope no more. My concern is this (has always been) is it okay to let go after all these years or does it make sense to hold on and try working things out instead of starting from scratch? how are we sure the next guy aint worse? how many more are you willing to let in, all in the name of searching for MR. RIGHT? Are we ready to let in some other stranger who acts all nice from point "A" and show his true colors at point "K"??!!?? If we cant work hard to make a realtionship work then how can we make our marriages work in future? Is it just right to let go of something you really cherish cause of problem worth solving?
