describe him as being British, instead they said that he was of Nigerian descent because his Parents were Nigerian. So you can see that the white man whose country some Nigerians are trying to claim as their homes do not
even want them. Even if you were born inside Buckingham palace, if your skin is black then as far as the British
establishment is concerned you’re a foreigner.
Let this be a lesson to the countless Nigerians who have made the West their home, because when push comes
to shove those countries where you have chosen to domicile will remind you in a not so overt manner that you
are not from there. My fellow Nigerians, the time has come to put away the wrong looks and the bad blood and
come together and sit down at the table of Brotherhood and seek appropriate solutions for our problems. As a
nation there is no doubt that our economic potential is huge. Nigerians are go getters. We are an extremely ambitious race of people who are willing to work as hard as is humanly possible in order to achieve our goals. But we
cannot make progress without peace and unity.
We cannot make progress until those in the society who are sponsoring Boko Haram are brought out and made
to either renounce their actions or face the full force of Justice. Pray for yourselves, pray for our President and
pray for Nigeria because despite our numerous challenges, I still believe that Nigeria’s best days are still very
much ahead of her. It is not over for us.
Nigerians are leaders, anywhere we find ourselves across the world we excel, and our faith in God and in our-
selves is what will truly turn this country into the envy of not just other African nations, but of the entire word.
I am so proud of my Nigerian lineage and there’s no other country in the world I would rather have descended
from. May God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria, one united nation filled with liberty prosperity and justice,
surely such a nation is worth fighting for. God bless you all. Paul Okade jr. Publisher of “The Politician”
