I am not pretending that things are normal in the land. I do not dismiss the basis of mistrust, distrust and disgust pervading the political terrain. Oh, I fully understand the basis for worry and apprehension in our homes and in our hearts. I do.
But I also know that no one, no matter how damned, daring or devious has ever succeeded in winning the last fight of the final battle for the soul of our country NIGERIA. Think back, dear Compatriots, and check. Nigeria go survive o...Nigeria go better!
We must plead and appeal to all gladiators, godfathers, gold-diggers, gadflies and gluttons for reason-above-treason. Love your country, lead with justice. Let it be said of us that we came, we served, we prospered - in soul, our spirit, and for nation. Materials be not all.
Despite all provocations - brazen and subtle - may we keep our nerves, our steel and Nigeria's soul. Indeed, because of such provocations, must we now resolve and so triumph!
My caution to us ALL this day is peace, perseverance and painstaking patience. It's our duty and our pronounced dignity as a nation. The future is bright and assured. Yes. Believe.
May 29 be round the corner! Be glad.
