Every region of this country can survive on it own because Nigeria is a blessed country with abundant mineral resources but the elite wouldn't allow that because Fuel is the easier way to enriched themselves and their generation yet unborn.
Some of them have even started stocking ill gotten wealth for the grand children they have not seen and may even not see. We truly have very selfish people in the society. Like my ex-state governor that did not do anything in the state. I wish the hand of the law will really deal with him. I happen to have the opportunity to do a little teaching practice in my state. I was really disapponited with the level of illiteracy. There wasn't incentives to encouraged the teachers and alot of things were really wrong with the system and my ex-state governor is claiming that he is innocent. Those helping him need to be prosecuted along with him. My state is Taraba State and alot of people in the country doesn't know where it is situated talk more of foreigners. Any time someone asked me where I come from and I happen to mention Taraba State, They always say that I'm just making it up especially the foreigners. It pains me becauseI have to put up with this as an indigene. If not for the Social Studies and current affairs, the entire good citizen of the country may not know except maybe for the policy makers. Before people asking could understand, I have to start explaining by using the Ex-Vice President of the country owns State. Even If I mentioned Former Gongola, some will start asking funny questions. This is to tell you the backwardness of the North and problems we are facing in the North too. So where is the Money from the fuel going into but into the pocket of few selfish elites in the society. |
