@Omoge
(Wolf whistles).....Thanks for having us. Now prepare to have a deluge.
@All Immigrant and Migrant Visa holders
There is no doubt that this place will never be like 'home' (711 pages of collective knowledge and the random ramblings of repressed comedians noh be 'today'). But the recent happenings at 'home' have not endeared peeps to our 'father'land.
This case reminds me of the 'Andrew' phenomenom of the late 70's to early 90's. The degeneration of a 'nation', the ineffectiveness of leadership to carry everybody along and make them feel part of the 'soceity' and people feeling so helpless that migration was the only option they felt remained for them (and No I am not talking about Nigeria of the 80's. I am talking about 'father'land of TODAY.). See the similiarities? But just as those of us who were told those stories and those of us who are Old enough to remember know.....the mass exodus of Nigerians in those years didnt solve Nigerias problem plus it created new ones which many of us in diaspora are now 'enjoying' !!!
'father'land is our
COGNITIVE COLLECTIVE it is our handwork, the fruit of our labour, the result of endless toil, it is the wealth of our 'nation'. We have a claim to it, a right ! but with all rights there come responsibilities.
I believe we have the responsibility to contribute in anyway possible to the solving of our problems on 'father'land only when it becomes a failed 'state' do we become refugees.
Tell me - are we going to forget 711 pages of WISDOM?
