NEW NIGERIA
Before going to bed, i had to eat something. I opened d fridge nd yes, all d things in my fridge had turned to block; d light had been on for 8 years without going off. I finished eating nd went to bed. Oh I ve to reduce d speed of this fan, d voltage is so high. I woke up very early in d morning to d sound of classical music. I casually strolled into the bathroom. Oh! The cold
is too much this morning, i turned on d hot-water tap. While towelling myself dry, I turned on the radio and heard the presenter speaking of how Nigeria is now one of the most developed countries in the world and how d Nigerian president yesterday declared his asset and all he had to boast of was N20 million naira and a duplex in his village. I finished dressing up and took my time to eat. I had no reason to rush, afterall the road is always free and there are no pot holes.
On d way, i saw a few policemen patrolling and I greeted them. I stopped to chat wit dem 4 a few minutes after which i drove off laughing. In my
workplace, i saw some people loitering in d. waiting room nd discovered dey were here to be interviewed.I saw d son of the permanent secretary. I also saw a young man with tattered shoes nd patched-up trouser; he graduated recently from one of d government universities,
but everyone could testify to the fact that
he's brilliant.
While going home that day, i saw the man with d tattered shoes smiling and i asked him why. "Sir, i've been given d job." "What! What of the Permanent secretary's son, didn't his father call beforehand? No "D man said, "He
didn't" That evening, i went out 2 play in D
neighborhood, i saw Adamu and Obinna discussing d recent trend in the country, of hw Mallam Danjuma is now d governor of Rivers state, Senator Abifarin Oluwafemi is now the governor in Borno state, Mr Chijioke Godffrey is now the governor of Oyo State...
If this looks like the Nigeria you want to see. Share as you believe!
